Weekend Edition: Detoxification!

Written by Khuselwa from the blog Cabbage Soup...and other diets on 04 Apr 2008

Detox!!! We were made to believe that if we didn't undergo this weekend 'ritual', we'd soon be on our deathbeds because of inyongo (a condition usually accompanied by headaches, nausea and a very disturbing sensation on your backside after passing a sometimes watery greenish stool...hence the word inyongo (direct trans: gall bladder))!

I haven't taken laxatives in ages!!! Since I could legally make up my own mind in fact. That would mean I'm a walking toxin bag, were I to subscribe to this belief. A week doesn't pass by before some of my colleagues imbibe 'imbiza' from u Bab' Nxumalo. What the 'imbiza' is made up of I couldn't tell you, well neither could my colleagues but they still swear by it!

I have decided to do a 'mini-detox' on my system during this weekend, and instead of going to the Faraday taxi rank to buy some, I am going to make my own 'imbiza'!

I’ll be back on Monday with the results.

Have you ever tried detox? Imbiza? What were your reasons for doing it? How did you feel during and afterwards?

Yeah that's me too. I read somewhere that you're not supposed to do this as the body then becomes reliant on it and cannot "function" without it. The only thing i can do that's close to detoxifying is drinking a lot of water!!!!!!!!

Good luck with your own concotion, and can't wait to hear the results on Monday.....

Hey Khuselwa, quite a different angle of a blog here.
Neway I have never kiphad inyongo in ages gal, I don't do imbiza as well. With the unhealthy foods I live by I am sometimes very scared that one day i'll be as sick as a dog coz I never take time out to detox, maybe I should hey???

Khuselwa and Tox...try this link http://www.energiseforlife.com/detox-plans.php
I've used their plan and I feel it works...although some of the stuff recommended is hard to find but if you dont belive in the whole khiphi'nyongo  thing...this is a perfect alternative...I suppose in SA you can replace their products with other D-Tox capsules you might get from your pharmacy or health-box /shop......NOT abo-brooklax or Laxas.........this is more herbal and natural  thereofore youll be detoxing without using somethin already poisonous or harsh...which i think defeats the purpose......and thereafter   STAY AWAY FROM THE KFC..(for a while at least...LOL
