A: It’s completely normal to feel a bit more tired than usual while on a cleanse, especially for the first day or two. After all, your body is working hard to cleanse itself and some typical detox symptoms are tiredness and a lack of energy.

Listen to your body and try to take small naps if you can! As you continue your cleanse you’ll find that your detox symptoms will ease and you’ll start to feel refreshed and re-energized.

One way is to drink at least 8 cups of water a day. Additionally, many customers enjoy drinking herbal teas to curb cravings. If you’re unsure of what kind of tea would best suit your cleanse, let us know and we can offer suggestions.
