The last few days have been great as I ease back into liquids and raw food. I’ve mostly been having Orange Juice as my staple meal, along with some Organic Carrot Juice and some probiotics.

Probiotics are really important at this time of the cleanse as my body needs live microbial organisms present in the digestive tract. Probiotics are considered beneficial and are sometimes referred to as “friendly” bacteria. Some of the ways they are thought to promote health include suppressing the growth of potentially harmful bacteria, improving immune function, enhancing the protective barrier of the digestive tract, and helping to produce vitamin K.

As the last 16 days of the cleanse have been beneficial in many ways, I have also removed all the nutrients and “good” bacteria from my intestines. The probiotics will help to fast track the regrowth of the bacteria.
