I guess that I lean somewhat more on the side of catkrazy - I like saunas, the gym, sweating, etc., rather than the much longer fasting program you explained. I think that both of these methods encourage the body to get rid of whatever it needs to get rid of through the normal channels. The intake that you described, however, I would find extremely difficult to adhere to, largely because I cannot imagine going for that length of time without some sort of food (did I read it correctly, 7 days?).
I wonder, and since you're the expert in this area, I'm sure that you would know, would the enemas promote faster cleansing by causing the body to replace fluid faster? Or is the concept simply the expulsion of what's already there? I don't know, it just seems like everything else that you mentioned was so natural that the enemas seemed out of place, if you know what I mean.
In any event, with all the discussion about holidays from drugs, this post sounds like it has some wonderful ideas as far as getting rid of toxins. There's got to be something to it, perhaps you can tell us more.
The laxatives and enemas are offered if you are not 'producing' at a normal rate. (At least once a day.) I personally did not use them simply because all that water did it's job of cleaning out everything inside my colon. Generally after the 4th or 5th day, there is no further deposits, so to speak, available due to your body being empty of solid food. Some folks are usually a little constipated coming into the detox, but all the water usually clears that problem up fairly quickly.
You generally fast for 7 days, although an extra day or two is of no problem. I've actually taken a fast to a full 9 days due to the the use of pain meds and one other that keeps me alive. You can actually go a lot longer without food, especially if you are drinking plenty of water. The longest I've seen a fast go is 21 days, but there is some weight lose if you go that far. (That one was fully supervised by both a doctor and natural medicine practioner.) 7 days is the accepted standard for a full detox. The worst of the fasting if the first 3-4 days. We are so used to eating regularly that your body expects to eat on a daily basis. However after 3-4 days your body accepts the no eating just fine.
The entire process is quite natural and aside from feeling a little tired (and perhaps caffiene and sugar deprived) it works wonderfully well. Once I was back on a full diet again, I seemed to be filled with energy, and everything tasted so much better. My sense of smell sharpened no end. I was not left all gassy or anything and normal bathroom patterns resumed within 12 hours of eating my first solid meal.
I'd be happy to answer any further specific questions you may have.
