Juice cleanse: I want to try a juice cleanse. I am 30, female, 5'5", 170. It's for 3 days, 7 bottles a day. No major health issues. Take Align for slight IBS-C? ANS: Beware of cleanses. There is no good science that a they help anything and may be dangerous.

OK to try if...: Many people feel better after a juice cleanse. However, I advise doing only if the juices are organic. Vegetable juices are better to use than fruit juices, and fresh juices are best. See http://tinyurl.com/pefohbx I advise all with IBS try a low FODAMPs diet: http://tinyurl.com/oxjvpnc and see http://tinyurl.com/hsha84h for good advice on treatment of IBS.
