Concept of Cleanse: There is no western medicine concept of 'cleanse; your healthy body will take what it needs and send the rest out in the stool and urine. Healthy bodies clean themselves and monitor this well. Learning to eat better will help keep your body at it's peak of its ability to take care of itself well.
