Good Afternoon Anya,
When I took my Human Nutrition class, my professor was a licensed Dietician and the only person in my area who was also trained in Diabetic nutrition. I found everything she taught us very informative and educational. I didn't know until that class, that soybeans is the only non animal based protein that is complete.
Thank you,
Zimmy

A Registered Dietician or an RD, is a degreed person and it is a profession into itself. They are the true nutritionist.
There are also Registered Nurses that are certified diabetic specialists and have additional education and certification with expertise in nutrition.
Our bodies naturally cleanse themselves. We do not retain "toxins" in our bowels. Yes they are full of flora and fauna (so-to-speak) but that is their job (as long as that is where they stay-nuff said about that in the morning).
Dehydration and electrolyte imbalance is very possible with too much "cleansing". My caveat is to be very careful with anything that you do. Check with your doctor to be sure and if you feel ill at all, stop.
Re: Alli. There is no easy way to lose weight. As with diet pills, there is always a cost when taking a short-cut.
I hope I do not offend but sometimes it is difficult to ignore my own training and background when I fear for the health of another.
