I was taking the product and it worked so well, I could feel that my lower bowels were empty, I did this for almost the whole month. Then, I was sick for three days and in bed . It was because I was too stressed too and probably for taking meds that did not do well with the cleanse, especially one from a natural path. Anyways, as strict as I was on the cleanse and how good I was doing, I didn’t realize that it only took 1 or 2 weeks to go to the next step, and I was ongoing with the first part of the cleanse. Well, it is almost the end of the month, and now, that I am back on my feet, I am doing those 5 days rest and I feel like I already did them when I was sick. So I guess I should go to the 3-4 week part now. I have always liked this product, I just need to do it right. Ok, Sometimes, I wish I could talk to Anne Louise to ask her questions that Id like to have answered because I believe she has more knowledge that others who don’t always answer the phone. Thank you. Question - when is it a good time to take Diatamatios earth?
