I'm always puzzled when I read similar remarks -- not that it's incorrect, but rather in my experience there's another approach. While I haven't had any herx reactions from CS, I have from other alternative health protocols in the past (or from just cleaning up my diet), and what I've found most beneficial is a mild herbal cleansing product (laxative). The one I use is called Experience, from Awareness Corporation (a MLM company), which is said to cleanse and elminate toxins in the body down to the cellular level (intestines, organs, tissues, cells). I've found it to be an excellent and very useful product. If, for example, I've over-indulged in physical activity so much that my muscles could be sore the next day (lactic acid build-up, as I recall), a single capsule the night before prevents that. I also found it helpful (before I found CS) to help to knock out some colds when they were first starting (the sore throat stage). While I am personally sold on this particular product, I can't imagine that there aren't other herbal products available in healthfood stores, for example, that wouldn't also be very helpful in this way. I'd certainly say it's worth a try, as long as the body is being gently ASSISTED with the toxin elimination, not treated harshly.
