what I needed to know was, is there anything you can do to speed up this process??
I have heard some crazy stuff including drink a lot of water or drink dill pickle juice cause the vinegar might wash it out of your system faster. Do you know of anything that can be done to speed up the process or anything that might clean out your system?? Can you please answer as best you can or give some ideas??
Thanks,

Brief Answer:
Plenty of water , fruits and vegetables.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
You are doing right thing.
Just add following to speed up process of detoxification.
The most effective way to clean out and detox your system (in my opinion) is to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, stay hydrated (consistently pee clear), exercise at least an hour a day (rebounding, dancing, swimming, or jogging, etc) to get your lymphatic system flowing, along with getting plenty of rest each night. Consistency is key here...
Also, tea and oily food are said to be good for cleansing the blood, liver, kidneys, and so forth.
