5 Day Nutritive Cleanse-Day one!!!

Rachael and I are supporting each other as we seek a healthy lifestyle and we are starting with Young Livings 5 day Nutritive Cleanse! 

To give you a little background on why we are doing this we both recently 
took a in depth look at our health and what was going on in our bodies as we battle Hashimotos disease, fatigue, brain fog, and just generally not feeling well. Despite our use of oils and yes our medications for our thyroid we were still not feeling as well as we know we could. So we started looking at our nutrition and the more we study the more we were convicted that we needed to make some changes. 

In our last post I posted about the class we attended on gut health and as we both sat there we realized that in order to get the most of the oils and supplements we were using we really needed to get our gut healthy.  

So we decided to support one another as we walked through the 5 day cleanse! And Day 1 is over and guess what? We survived!!! 

The cleanse includes Digest and Cleanse, Balance Complete, and Ningxia Red! 

I have gone through the whole day packing and then followed up with an Open House and I still have energy and I am not starving! But I am not going to lie I would like some solid food.

Rachael said it is not as bad as she thought it was going to be. She stated she is not hungry but does have a slight detox headache. 

The only difference in what we did was I mixed my Balance Complete with almond milk and Rachael used water. I liked the almond milk and Rachael was not so excited about the water based shake. And instead of the suggested 3 ningxia red packets I have consumed 5 of them. That may account for the added energy but with 4 boys you have to do what  you have to do! 

All in all it has been a good first day!
