It wasn't unpleasant at all like I expected. Poopsed three good sized poops every day that I was on this cleanse. I am ready now to do the paragone cleanse. Just in case

Review by Annette
Perhaps because I am already healthy .. tried this to see if I could get rid of some extra (menopause) weight, but it's had no effect whatsoever. I actually picked up some pounds.
No effect for my husband either. We are both healthy and fit and in our fifties.

Dosage | (Posted on 11/28/14)
Review by Cherrie
I keep reading reviews on here of people not knowing how many capsules to take and what the proper dosage is... People are saying that their bottle says to take 3 but the label here on the website says to take 1. Neither of those are correct. You are suppose to take TWO in the morning 1/2 hr before you eat or 2 hours after and TWO in the evening same as morning, that is, 1/2 hr before you eat or 2 hours after. I am looking at the labels right now on the websites and both labels in two different place on each label says TWO capsules and my bottles here at home say TWO. The label perfectly matches the one here online. You've got to read everything and follow directions, folks! It WILL work IF you do it correctly, read all the directions, eat the right food, drink lots of water, take fiber, etc. Just stick it out instead of saying it's a waste of money and throwing in the towel after ONE day. It's a CLEANSE and most likely you'll feel like crap! And that's a good thing because it's getting all the junk out of your body that doesn't belong there! Peace out! :)
Thank You | (Posted on 11/14/14)
Review by Gloria
I am a 66 year African American female who is about to embark on a journey to lose 80 pounds, so with much research reading, I decided the best plan was to cleanse my body first. So I purchased FirstCleanse 14 day program and started a good breakfast daily, mainly using my Nutria bullet with lots of vegetables and fruits, lunch of homemade vegetables soup or fruit salad with cottage cheese and dinner of fish or chicken with sweet potatoes or beans and with lots of veggies.
I didn't have Norwegian Gold Omega Oils but took flax seed oil. I lost a total of 7 pounds in the 14 days, my stomach is noticeably down and I feel wonderful. My elimination of bowel movement was every morning before I set off for my 1 hour walk around the neighborhood. I didn't have any adverse side effects. I am really please with the product and have encouraged several of my girlfriends to try it. Thank you.

Review by Kim
I hadn't done a cleanse in many years, but wanted to do it again after having given up sugars and starches due to glucose intolerance. That alone has made of world of difference for me, and because of that, now I'm really focused on getting healthy! Looking for a cleanse, I went to our local Herbarium, where they recommended this product, and I'm loving it. I've been really regular, feel great, and aside from getting bound up once when I changed my eating patterns and didn't drink as much water as I usually do, I've had no negative side effects or reactions. (a rarity for me) Btw, the CleanseMORE sample they include with this package worked great when I needed it! I'm nearly done with this cleanse now and liked it so much, I'm looking for my next cleanse. I didn't have the FiberSMART or OilSmart that they recommend available this time, but I've also been taking one of their probiotics, and will be adding all of these to my daily regimen! Love that they have organic products available!
GREAT! | (Posted on 7/22/14)
Review by Ashton
I've used this cleanse a few times and have loved it each time. This is the first cleanse I've ever used, and will be the only cleanse I ever use. It's gentle and effective and works well at relieving bloat and discomfort. It seemed to really help "clean up" my system and it improved my energy and the way I felt. A few months after doing this cleanse I did their other full body cleanse and that one works great as well. I would just recommend doing this one first if it is in fact your first cleanse just because it is gentle and will get you used to a cleansing cycle. I usually do this cleanse, then the full body cleanse a few months after, and I do this cycle about twice a year.
First Cleanse | (Posted on 7/3/14)
Review by Tirzah
This cleanse was definitely refreshing for me! I had headaches for the first (2) days. My bowels were out of whack the first week, but finally started to come around the last week of cleanse. I broke out with acne primarily on my chin and jaw line. I still have acne, but I am not worried about that. I decided to order the Cleanse Smart as I am interested in doing all of the cleanses. I am hopefully as I go along in the process the acne will go ahead. I have dealt with acne my whole life and I use all organic make-up, facial washes, moisturizers, etc. I truly believe my body needs more detoxing. When my mom did the First Cleanse, she broke out with fever blisters. It is always good to know these things happen because that is a good sign of detox and healing internally. I give my BLESSING on this product! I also took the First Cleanse box to my Reflexologist and Nutrition professor and the both agreed the quality of ingredients are superior! Thanks!!!!
Good Experience | (Posted on 6/26/14)
Review by Elsie
FirstCleasne was a good experience for me. There was no discomfort, no pain. Both quinoa, wild rice and eggs were eaten. Everything else was my regular diet. Most of it is lots of fruits. Also I used flax seed in whatever solid food I ate. I am feeling great and I am getting ready for the Liver Detox. Thank you, I truly appreciate FirstCleanse.
Easy, Gentle, and Effective | (Posted on 1/17/14)
Review by Sara
I do this regularly, usually about 3-4 times a year, so it's not just for first-timers. I like it better than the juice and smoothie cleanses I used to do, because you can still eat normally while you cleanse, and you only have to take the pills twice a day. You are not confined to the restroom while taking this cleanse, it is very gentle. I like it so much because I feel like I get a good cleanse, but it doesn't interfere with your everyday life barely at all.
Great Results | (Posted on 12/29/13)
Review by jessbo58
My husband and I did this cleanse this past summer and we both had a good experience.
I must say the digestive "consequences" are a little unpredictable. I'm so glad I was not working outside the home during this cleanse! The digestive issues were not as much of a problem for my husband. However, the digestive side effects were NOT enough to make me stop using this cleanse and I would do this cleanse again.
My husband and I developed a little cough during the process, but I do think this cleanse has relieved my asthma and allergies. I was on 5 medications for asthma, allergies, and high blood pressure (2 asthma meds, allergy med, nose spray for CONSTANT stuffiness, and high blood pressure med). After doing this cleanse, I am now only on ONE medication for high blood pressure.
In the past (before doing this cleanse), I would stop taking my allergy medication for a month of two only to feel like I had the flu and get right back on them. I NEVER thought I would be off my allergy medication and nose spray, but I am! I've been off of the asthma and allergy medication for 6 months and have no need to get back on them.
FULL DISCLOSURE: After this cleanse I stopped taking 2 prescription asthma medications and I started taking natural Vitamin E to help control my asthma and allergies.
Before this cleanse, my husband I would sunburn after a short time in the sun. He would mow our yard (takes him about 3 hours) and would come in very red. I would only have to spend an hour or so in the sun to get burned. After we did this cleanse, we have stopped sunburning; we don't even tan! I was able to mow my yard (takes me 4 hours) in the mid-day sun with no sunscreen wearing a tank top and shorts and did not have even a tan line! We went outside all summer with no sunscreen and never burned.
We are in the process of doing the bowel cleanse to help maintain the results of the total body cleanse.
I have recommended this product to everyone I know. I will continue to use Renew Life products.

Review by Barry
This is the first time I used a cleanse of any kind. I am so used to just eating right which includes fruits and vegetables combined with a proper diet and exercise but that didn't seem to be enough. After using the whole body cleanse I have seen a significant difference in my whole being. Mentally and physically. I can't explain it but I feel so much better than before. It's a simple program. I felt a difference almost instantly. I highly recommend this program/product.

Info on how to have no side effects | (Posted on 8/21/13)
Review by Rhonda
Even though I have cleansed before, I haven't in a while and chose First Cleanse because I do experience 2-3 bowel movements a day. I am following the diet. I have opted to increase my fiber content to at least 35 grams a day instead of taking the FiberSmart, only because I didn't have the FiberSmart when I was ready to begin the cleanse. I am glad I chose this, because by the time I consume all these grams of fiber through raw vegetables (carrots), coconut milk greek yogurt, almonds, sunflower seeds, etc., I am too full to want any of the junk food that I normally consume. This occurred on the very first day. Now I know how to diet very easily. Also, since I have cleansed before, I do know how to do it without side effects. I am taking a sweat bath every day of the cleanse. Although the liver is the main detoxification organ of the body, the skin is the biggest detoxification organ. When doing a cleanse, the body releases toxins into the body, and it is the liver's job to get ride of them. The extra fiber can also absorb the toxins, but if the body has too many toxins for the fiber to absorb and the liver to flush out, there will be side effects, like pimples, cold or flu like symptoms. The sweat bath consists of sitting in a warm enough bath, that is comfortable, and just sweat. I know it sounds funny, it did to me at first too. It may take 10 minutes to start sweating, but as soon as you start to feel sweat start on the top of your brow, you only have to sweat for about 15-20 minutes. I love it so much that I will sweat for an hour. You can do this as long as you are also replacing fluid with room temperature water as you sweat. It is so good for you. When you are done, you will need to sit until you have cooled off. It helps to keep water weight off too, but don't be afraid to replace it with water. You actually keep water weight off better if you drink all day long (8-10 glasses of water every day). Water also helps to flush out toxins and fat cells. Before you bathe, you will want to take the chlorine out of your bath. I do this easily by placing a tablet in the bath while filling the water. A very inexpensive way is to use Vitabath effervescent vitamin C dechlorination tablets. There are other ways, but this is the easiest and most cost effective way I have tried. I hope this can help some people, because I read how some people are having some difficult side effects and it doesn't have to be that way. Just wanted to mention that I do not have any affiliation with Vitabath. Just a consumer that like their product. Hope this helps with side effects!

A friend of mine recommend cleansing deep inside me, because I told him that I don't feel very well. I feel weak and always have stomach trouble, what troubled me most is my bleeding. So I followed his advised and I saw First Cleanse at Walgreen . I bought it and after three days, I feel better , no more blood , my stomach stop giving me trouble. I feel I have a new life.
It works but my skin.... | (Posted on 5/28/13)
Review by CM1619
I tried this cleanse by the suggestion of a homeopathic doctor. I had a skin issue that would breakout during the summer months that I could not get rid of. Here was the overall results by week:
- Better sleep patterns (tired at night, stayed sleep)
- Slight constipation
- Small white pimples in my T-zones
- Few headaches
- Frequent BM
- Felt "lighter" with more energy
- Increase in acne (blackheads, whiteheads) in uncommon places (Hairline, temples, near ears)
Overall the cleanse was beneficial for me. The only bad side effect was the persistent acne which I still have 2 months later. Does anyone know what is going on with that?

Review by Samantha
I just finished this cleanse and it was my first ever cleanse. I liked that it was geared to a first timer. It was easy to follow. only days 3-4 i had some fatigue and body aches but nothing really bad. as of day 5 I was feeling GREAT. Very alert, and felt lighter. don't be afraid of this cleanse! the bathroom was 1-2 times a day. i felt amazing! I was not running to the bathroom. There was only 1 day of gas but nothing bad. I did follow the guidelines strictly in terms of the food, fiber intake and omega 3. Also, I did not drink alcohol or coffee. I did stop drinking Coffee prior to the cleanse so that I did not confuse the coffee headaches with the regular cleanse side effects. I would recommend this to anyone! I can't wait to do another. towards the end of it people were commenting on how glowing i looked and asked what I had been doing to my skin. I will say that my skin is normal to dry and was a little more dry during the cleanse.
Can't find pros but there's cons | (Posted on 1/23/13)
Review by First time cleanser
Ok, so I read the reviews of other users before I decided to do the cleanse... I have to say that the whole breaking out thing is true. I had all sorts of bumps on my face after day 2. It's not bad, just figured that this was all the toxins coming out. I did however start breaking out on my chest and back, which was odd because I normally have clear skin. Besides that, I can say that the cramps are horrible, but I'm going to the bathroom everyday. Everyone is going to experience different reactions... I just think mine are due to my irregularity!
First Cleanse, definitely renewed | (Posted on 1/23/13)
Review by Cres
To start, I have nothing to compare this to, so my review is from a first-timer. I'm 32, 5'8, and 149 lbs. After 2 weeks im the same age and height, but 140 lbs. Lost 9 pounds without even trying! I eat fairly healthy as it is, but this product really did a positive thing on my body. Never got diahrrea or constipation during 2 weeks. I had this product with CHIA Seed as part of my diet. It's a super-food found at your local health food store and I loved it! Will continue having CHIA Seed with my shakes in the AM. As far as this product:
First 3 days were painful, dizzy, and a grip of gas (especially 2nd and 3rd day). Not enough to open a 76 station, but enough to have to step out numerous times during the day. No acne. Then... everything was a thing of the past. At day 4 I felt very very good, not tired or sluggish. At day 7 I noticed my food intake had gone way down. I didn't finish my plates of food. From day 8 to end, it was a matter of keeping up with the diet. I did feel sluggish from day 10-12 and had to take a naps, which I never do. Attention: Your sleeping will increase! Go to sleep early!
Food? Either Chicken, fish, beans, and greens were my weekly menu items, along with a morning shake with a banana, chia seed, blueberries and almond milk.
I've told everyone about doing a body cleanse. I'm sure theres other products that offer great cleanses, but since I was on this one, I recommend this one. I got 1 person on it (they are on day 3 today) and I will support them throughout the 14 days. I'm trying to get other people on it, just to feel good and healthy. It is truly great.

Review by Renee
I decided to try this after getting shingles. My doctor told me I may have a parasite so I decided to get paragone but first use first cleanse.
I did get a headache the first 3 days but after that it was smooth sailing. I ended up with a flat tummy - something I haven't seen since having my first child in 1989! I am going to take 5 days off and then start the paragone.
I didn't have increased energy or anything phenomenal happen but my body is still fighting the shingles.
Will definitely cleanse at least 2x a year!
Felt normal | (Posted on 1/11/13)
Review by Annette
After trying numerous diets and never losing wight, I had just about decided to give up. Then I read Brenda Watson's book "The Detox Strategy" and decided to try a different approach. I've just finished "First Cleanse". I felt normal the entire time. My bowel movements have always been pretty regular, at least once a day. On the cleanse they increased to two to three times a day. I didn't have any adverse reactions or symptoms. I've just ordered the Liver Detox Cleanse. I'll let you know how that goes!

Review by Hungry Runner
I've always wondered if these cleanse products really did anything for you besides make you visit the bathroom every ten minutes and force you to starve yourself for a week. I'm a distance runner and I swim or do yoga every day too, so I'm not going to survive on lemon juice and honey. Not happening. I'm not looking to lose weight, but I am always interested in feeling better. When I found this product, i was intruiged by the healthy diet that didn't restrict my calorie intake and the fact that it was gentle so I could still go out for a run without worrying about "nature calling." I bought it. I tried it. I loved it. I made sure to cook healthy food instead of eating out or eating frozen dinners and I wasn't miserable and starving like I thought I would be. I was able to exersize and carry on with my busy days like usual. I actually tried a few new foods! I did get a few pimples and there were a couple days I was bloated, gassy, with some stomach cramps and constipation, but that passed after the first week (I assume that was the toxins being released). I got some herbal tea to help with the constipation and pretty soon, my energy levels went up, I actually felt as thin and fit as I look, and my mind was sharp without the daily brain fog I always fight through. I feel great and my digestive system is happy. I will do this again in a couple months after the holidays I think. =)
Great for someone who needs to "get back on track!" | (Posted on 9/30/12)
Review by veggie lover
Let me start of by saying I do not normally write reviews but I read these reviews before I started First Cleanse and I felt the need to write my own review since everybody is different. I chose First Cleanse as a way for me to "get back on track." I have never done a cleanse before, I usually just up my raw veggies and green juice to to get back on track. FYI: I am a vegetarian who consumes eggs, very little cheese, no animal milk. Most of my diet consists of fruits and veggies with whole grains and no refined flours/sugar etc. I drink 1 cup of coffee about every other day if I need the boost since I am in graduate school and I drink alcohol probably about once a week consisting of a couple beers. So now that you know my whole life... I chose this after a downward spiral of refined carbs, cheese, and tons of alcohol(hello vacation!). I was feeling tired, groggy, cranky, etc etc. The first couple days on the cleanse I felt like I was coming down with the flu, stuffy nose, headaches, cranky, just overall blah feeling. I also felt clumsy and couldn't think straight and I was very, very, hungry but I think this was due to the fact I was going back to my "normal" diet after weeks of eating everything in site on vacation. I found that if I did get a headache, if I chugged a bunch of water it would go away. I was very bloated the first 3 days and I didn't have my first BM until day 3! (I usually have 1 BM per day) I did not take the fiber supplement along with this cleanse just because I get a lot of fiber through my vegetables but I do take flax seed meal in my morning green juice. Although I did not have a BM, I had increased gas the first couple days which I expected (duh) but not enjoyed by my partner (haha). From day 3-7 (I am on day 7) I have had 2 BM per day. From day 5 on, I feel great! back on track mostly and back to my energy level. I also found that I am going to bed earlier and tired and waking up early and fully rested. I don't normal have problem skin, but I have noticed my skin is already more radiant by day 7 (first couple days I had few pimples here and there and increased oil).
Bottom line, after one week I beat my cheese and sugar cravings, no longer feel run down, and I am feeling amazing with clear skin and tons of energy! Very gentle cleanse and you're able to go about your life while on it. I did not change my diet really, just didn't eat what I was eating on vacation (back to my vegetarian whole foods diet). Can't wait to see how I feel after the 2 weeks!
Thanks a lot! | (Posted on 9/19/12)

Review by Roxy
Just finished the cleanse and I feel great.
During the cleanse I was VERY irritable, felt bloated, sweaty,dizzy at times, easily tired and was frequently constipated. I took fiber pills to cope with the constipation in addition to omega 369.As for my diet I tried to eat mostly an organic/ natural diet cutting out as many preservatives as possible.
A few days after the cleanse I noticed I no longer felt bloated, full of energy and I finally lost that 5 pounds I have been trying to lose for several months. I did break out during the cleanse but based on the other reviews this is probably due to toxins exiting the body.
I would recommend this product if you are serious about removing toxins from your body and are willing to cope with the "side effects" to reap the benefits.
Fantastic | (Posted on 9/12/12)
Review by LR
In 10 days I have lost 6lbs. I had a headache the first two days and two pimples. However, my belief is the worse reaction you have to the product, the higher likelyhood you probably need to do it. Many of the symptoms youre righting about, are toxin related and your body is flushing! I have had more energy these two weeks, less hunger and have tried to adhered to a fruit/vegie/black bean diet. Two meals I had white fish. Seriously I have not been hungry! Oh and a couple times, oatmeal for breakfast with berries. I am wondering how often is good / safe to do this cleanse? I LOVE it and I feel a huge difference.... Great!
Good product | (Posted on 9/8/12)
Review by AZM
The FirstCleanse is very mild cleansing product, but that's what it claims to be anyway. That being said, I was regular the whole time while taking firstcleanse, meaning 1-2 times a day. I did experience at the beginning constipation, but I figured that was due to taking too much fiber (I eat pretty healthy and get lots of fiber through food anyway). I cut on fibersmart (instead of taking 4, I would take 2, depending what I ate that day) and felt instant relief. I think that many people don't know that too much fiber constipates. Anyway, this is a good product for the first cleanse.

Review by rawbynx
I admit I was hesitant to try this cleanse based on the price, and mixed reviews, but I did it anyway.
This cleanse did absolutely nothing for me except make my stools extremely loose, and very cautious to break wind for fear of unexpected outcomes.
I followed the diet, and the directions and nothing changed except for more visits to the bathroom.
Bottom (ahem) line don't waste your money, or time.

First Cleanse is such a safe/good product. I never felt bloated or sick. I did pass some gas but not a lot and didn't bother me. I lost 5-1/2 pounds and felt like I had additional energy. I really felt your product work! My bowel movements were smooth and gentle. Thanks so much.

Review by Jacqueline
I have suffered with constipation all my life and have tried every laxative, enema, vitamin ect... I've taken fiber pills, probiotics and sometimes I would get a movement but it was never consistent. I took this product along with omega 3.6.9. Oils and was able to go to restroom everyday!! That never happens for me.. It was a relief and I finally feel like there is hope for people like me who struggle with this issue. I will now forever use this brand.
No effect Plus developed a Rash | (Posted on 4/14/12)
Review by Jim
I am unsure if the rash I developed was caused by Bowel Cleanse, but if a rash develops I suggest one stops to see if the rash goes away and then restart the program. I have just move and thought the rash was due to local environmental pollens but when I completed the course the rash went away. No change in energy levels but I eat a health fruit and veg diet with little dairy and milk.
Amazing Results! | (Posted on 3/28/12)
Review by Jess
I was very skeptical when I started using this product. I have really bad anxiety and taking things make me nervous because I do not want to experience negative side effects. Anyways, I bought the product and did a lot of reading online before I took it. I decided that the pros outweighed the cons and that if I didnt like how it was making me feel I could always stop.
The first day on the cleanse I felt really gross. I felt like I was coming down with the flu. My head hurt and I was having hot and cold flashes. My body would be covered with goose bumps and them a little later I would be sweating profusely. These symptoms only lasted about 48 hours for me. After just a few days on the cleanse I noticed that I would go to bed tired and sleep the whole night through which is very rare for me. When I woke up in the morning I was energized. I have not felt that way in years. During the cleanse I abstained from alcohol and processed food. I have to report that I feel amazing!! I am only 26 years old and I workout 5 days a week for about 2 hours. Before the cleanse I was gaining weight even with all the exercise. I was so tired constantly that I was having to take naps during the day. My hair had stopped growing pretty much and my skin was starting to get really weird bumps that would not go away. I know that my body was hurting from years of excessive partying with drugs and alcohol. I had stopped using drugs about six months ago but I really think my body was shot and hurting.
Now I feel amazing!! I feel my age which is such a relief! My skin has cleared up and my energy levels are sky high. I am no longer bloated and lost about 7 lbs during my cleanse. I feel like my body is functioning properly again. I also noticed that the cleanse helped my anxiety immensely! I am now switching to a cortisol support product to help continue with the weight loss and balance my stress.
One thing I did notice is that working out during the cleanse might not be the best idea. I work out really hard and I noticed I was extremely dizzy and light headed those two weeks. I mentioned something to a friend and she told me you are not supposed to exercise while on a cleanse. Just might want to know what before you try it but I cannot say enough great things about this product and I cannot wait to try some of their other products!

Review by Samantha
I recently got off of the birth control pill and have broken out with acne. Someone recommended that I do a cleanse. I started with First Cleanse, and I have completed one week. For the first 2 days, I felt nothing. For the remainder of the week, I have been feeling extremely fatigued with body aches. Flu-like. I have developed a few new pimples, and decreased appetite, which is a good thing I guess! I will stick with it, then do the Liver Cleanse next.

The only thing wish i could find easily was a step by step recommended program eg first cleanse then liver cleanse etc.. Cause I absolutely feel like trying them all but not sure in what order I should, or if it really matters..

Review by Jennifer
I enjoyed doing this cleanse. It was gentle and didn't interfere with my life. I actually felt lighter and noticed my midsection was flatter after having a bowel movement. I will definitely use Renew Life products in the future!
Happy with the results | (Posted on 3/15/12)
Review by Linne"
Before trying FirstCleanse, I was nervous about how may body would react to this since I'd never done this before. I was pleasantly surprised how gentle it was. In fact, after the first week, I was wishing it was a little more potent. I had healthy bowel movements about once a day. There were some days that I did have more than 1 bowel movement. I would recommend this product to others who have never done a colon cleanse before. I'm happy with the results.

Review by Imu
After having a miscarriage, I felt that I needed a cleanse to help get my body get back to normal and give myself a better chance the next time around. To give some background, I already have a very healthy diet, exercise regularly, am a normal weight, drink a lot of water and don't drink alcohol often. I followed the instructions properly, continued this healthy lifestyle and even followed Weight Watchers at the same time to ensure I was being careful with my intake. This "cleanse" only constipated me even more and I put on weight over the two weeks I was on it (6 lbs). I had also given it to my boyfriend to cleanse along with me. He lost sleep and had terrible anxiety. I'm very disappointed. I needed something to improve my bad situation, not worsen it. I'm usually not one to complain, but I wish I could get my money back. Snake oil.
Loved It!! | (Posted on 3/6/12)
Review by Kerry
I just finished First Cleanse today and I loved it!! In general, I'm pretty regular, so I didn't see much of a difference in BM's. I also normally drink a lot of water in a day, but on the cleanse, I noticed that I was urinating much more frequently, which was good.
I am more energized, definitely have been sleeping better and all in all, have lost a total of 8 pounds during the last two weeks!!
I feel great!!
EXCEPTIONAL PRODUCT!!! | (Posted on 3/1/12)
Review by chrissy
This is my first time taking a body cleanse and I must admit I had a rough time about the 3rd day of taking. I went to the bathroom about 15 times in one day. I felt HORRIBLE, nautious, achy and weak. I felt like I had the flu or stomach virus. I'm not trying to detur you from buying the product I just want you to be aware that flu like symptoms are normal. This was good for me because it showed me how poor I had been treating my body, all of the awful toxins that I had stored in my body therefore it was reacting to it in this way. After a couple of days of feeling horrible, the symptoms let up and I began feeling alot better. I still felt nautious on certain days and whenever I noticed that I was having alot of bowels, I would skip a night from taking the night time formula. I am on my last day and I must say I feel great. My skin is much clearer and I have alot more energy. One other side note is that my appetite decreased, which was a good thing for me. My next step is to take the liver detox. I am so excited in the direction of health that I am taking my body. Despite the discomfort, I would strongly recommend this product to anyone. Everyones body is different and reacts different. Therefore, you may not encounter the problems that I did. I believe the way your body reacts to this product is a determining factor of the toxins that you have instored in your body.
3 times now and still enjoying it | (Posted on 2/5/12)
Review by Shorty
Gotta say it after reading some peoples reviews, i must say READ UP ON DETOX FIRST AND THE PRODUCT! People are saying it told me to take 3 pills, it clearly states 2 in morning 2 at nght. Take a fibre supplement and drink plenty of water and eat healthy. Thats not a hard thing to do. Also if you'll read up on detox's, they aren't meant to make you loose weight and be skinny. They help cleanse the body! Do your research frst folks!
As for the product I've done it 3 times and everytime i've enjoyed it. Yes i get some headachs and such, but its normally only for the first week, i have bms just as normal as i did before sometimes even a bit more. I'm happy at the end of the cleanse knowing how beneficial it is and how much I just did for my body cause if i dont care for it no one will. its an easy cleanse with nice results.

Review by Bren
My husband and I are on our fifth day of the first cleanse. We both find ourselves very irritable with each other and others. Everything is a big deal all of a sudden. He has lost 4 pounds, while I've gained 2 pounds and have done nothing different, other than drown ourselves in water. I will say that I do feel a little less bloated and he said that has improved for him too. Not sure when we are supposed to actually see the results and even what they should be, but I am not enjoying the irritability or the weight gain.

Review by Sheffield
I have done other very expensive month-long cleanses in the past and none have given me the results that this one has. Of course, as is typical with a cleanse, I felt pretty gross the first few days to a week, headache, and acne breakout as the toxins are being cleaned out. But in the first week alone I lost 5 lbs, my stomach hasn't been this flat in ages, I have color in my face again, and loads of energy. For those that are feeling constipated, the product clearly says in the instructions that you should take a fiber supplement with this product since it does not contain strong laxatives. I have been taking Metamucil and it has been the best cleanse I've done. I actually love that it does not contain laxatives because many people have health problems that can't take laxatives, so this product cleanses while giving you the option to discard the "waste" in the way that is best for you. Plus, other cleanses I've done with laxatives make you run to the washroom about 10 times a day, not fun or convenient! I love, love, love this product and have recommended it to anyone that will listen. I will make this an annual thing. Wonderful.

Review by MJ
I have mild constipation, so I brought this cleanse to help jump start my new years "healthy lifestyle". This product states that it would produce 2-3 BMs a day. I followed instructions and it made me very constipated. It was day 5 before I had a BM and the stool was very hard! Therefore flaring up the hemorrhoids! I would not recommend this to ANYONE!
Excellent program! | (Posted on 12/14/11)
Review by Silvia @ Atlanta
This is the first cleanse ever for me. I was nervous because of the customer reviews about getting constipated because I was already constipated; I started with the products anyways. The first three days, yes, I felt bloated and crampy; after that everything started to flow perfectly, I didn't feel as hungry as before, my portions are considerably smaller and I feel satisfied, and with more energy. I actually started going to the gym again, this time kickboxing! I don't feel bloated anymore and I lost 6 lbs. in the 2 week period. I absolutely recommend this product, be patient, drink lots of water and just try to eat lighter food, more vegetables, less hamburgers.... I can't wait to try another cleanse or detox product from renew life!!

Review by I<3Europe
First of all it's hard to believe what you read, but for all it's worth I am a real person doing a real unbiased review. I decided to do this cleanse with my boyfriend. My boyfriend first tried out Cleanse Smart products 5 years ago when a health food store employee recommended the Liver Detox for his ongoing back acne). After the Liver Detox he had no more body acne issues and had much more energy.
Now back on the topic of this First Cleanse product, I didnt notice any HUGE differences, for example there was no noticable difference in my elimination or energy levels (just for an FYI I already have a very clean and natural diet and exercise regularly).
However, once the cleanse was done I went to work one day forgetting to put on deodarant and realized I did not have any body odor after a long day (on a hot summer August day). My boyfriend and I then decided to do some experiments. We stopped putting on deodarant and going on about our days, going on hikes, going to work, going to the gym (always having a spare deodorant bad JUUUST incase). It's absolutely amazing that I don't have any body odor after this cleanse EVEN after a hard workout. I wasn't expecting that at all. I now don't have to wear deodarant and that in itself is pretty great. The product clearly cleaned my filter organs, the liver and kidneys :). YAY

Review by nora
I am 28 yrs old , mommy of four, I have never done a cleanse before and felt that my body was telling me it was time, bloating, fatigue, weight gain, irritable, aches and pains, Overall Icky, so this is day one of the cleanse, I took one capsule this morning, I will take another this evening, will increase water intake, and go grocery shopping for some healthier food options. Had a BM a few short hours after first capsule so~ far~ so~ good :)
first first cleanse | (Posted on 9/27/11)
Review by Jenny
I am on day 3 of my first first cleanse.. I have already lost 2 lbs, assuming it is all water weight. I have been following the 'raw' diet, meaning foods of the earth, fresh low mercury fish and nuts.. Being an avid coffee drinker, I have not cut out caffiene completely, but only having one cup compared to my normal 5 cups. I am drinking extra water to mke up for it.
I've also found a decaffinated green tea at my local grocer which is great with lemon juice!
I have alot of lower back pain, which is apparently linked to the kidneys trying to process the released toxins or lower intestinal termoil. I started the cleanse because I had been feeling bogged down, sluggish...similar to how a blob would feel. I deeply miss dairy and wheat, and almost quit this cleanse yesterday, but I will stick it out till the end! Good luck to all of you.
And for the record, the bottles I recieved say one capsule for the first three days, day and night, and then three capsules day 4 on.
*****TRUE EVALUATION***** | (Posted on 9/19/11)
Review by DR T
First: I believe with anything (medications, probiotics, herbals, etc) an individual must be honest with themselves. If you are an individual whom suffers from many health problems you must be careful when trying or introducing the body to new things. Second: We must remember that when we introduce the body to something different at first it is foreign and the body must adjust to the new supplement. When taking this product, my first intention was cleanse the body and all internal organs, rid the body from toxins, parasites and loose some possible stomach fat. As we know, if you are taking this you are possibly someone whom has not received a cleansing in awhile, so the colon has tons of built up waste. The body's natural reaction may be what is this entering? and attack back therefore causing diarrhea, loose bowels to remove it,etc, but when you begin a product as such you must eat more protein, fruits, vegetables and change to a healthier diet to assist the body in cleansing.I havent experienced alot of bm movements because I go regularly but the urinary tract stays busy with all of the extra water retention. Also, I believe that is also the body's way of cleansing the blood, skin etc..as listed on the side as well.Everything doesnot come through bowel it comes throught the skin which is the largest living organ and sweat, urine,etc..Everyone seems to be waiting for this big Power Removal in 24 hours. Also, stay away from greasy and fried foods that when I noticed stomach aches. The first 3 days you feel lightheaded and its a different feeling,I believe because its herbal and your body had to adjust but by the 4thday I was energized which I was not before and has been every since. I am positive about this cleanse. Remember also the digestive system is what makes for a strong immune system. My skin has cleared up as well. I believe the individuals with acne breakout experience and stomach problems and other reactions are the body's way of saying "hey what is happening" but drink plenty of water take at same time everyday and you will be fine. I take at 700am every morning and 700 at night. Follow directions people it also states take 30 mins before eating and 2hrs after eating.Not when you want to. So set your time to eat within that schedule so you wont forget. Pick a time and do it the same everyday so it becomes habit.If you choose a late hour and eat early take a light snack at night yogurt, fruit drink 100%juice light things to keep your stomach from working to hard.If you eat at night make sure you dont lay down either it takes the body 2hours to digest your food so dont lay on it.This can cause acid reflux.Okay good luck everyone and dont giveup start over and also if you exp diarrhea or upset stomach reduce your dosage to one capsule drink water and coat stomach with a light yogurt, milk, fat free scoop of ice cream once it settles. Last thing I now sleep wonderfully it helps me to relax so much more.Be Blessed all and stay positive and so will the body!

I too took 3 capsules as said on the bottle instead of the 1 capsule recommended on the site. I'm now terrified I did something seriously wrong. I am discontinuing it because the actual bottle versus the website makes me doubt the validity of the product.

This note is to let you know FirstCleanse has worked exactly as described. I had no problem after taking FirstClease as you prescribed in the instructions. It was gentle and made me more regular as you said (approx 3 times a day). I was glad to have tried this for the first time. Thank you.
Awful ~ | (Posted on 8/29/11)
Review by BostonGirl
To start with, the dosage instructions on the bottles are VERY different from the instructions here online (online it says one capsule; on the bottle, THREE). OK. I took THREE, since that is what the bottle said, and I was taking it from the bottle, not the computer screen (although wouldn't you think they would have the same info???). Anyhow, fast forward to the next morning: I took the am capsules, and around 1pm, had really bad abdominal pain, and I am not a person who wimpers/moans about pain.
I rain to the bathroom, and - not to be gross - but it was explosive. This would have been less gross if I were home, but I was at work. Ugh. Watery, nasty and gross. When I finally got back to my office, 5 minutes later, I was dashing back to the bathroom....
Am throwing out the rest tonight.... total waste of $$$.

I enjoyed the FirstCleanse program and benefited from it. My bowel movements occurred 4 times a day which was wonderful and I felt good. It cancelled my severe constipation.
No "WOW" Experience | (Posted on 8/12/11)
Review by ocrunner11
Gentle cleanse was my first cleanse in a while, say 10 years. I expected more from this treatment. My expectations was 1: Lose weight, did not happen, even though I was on a 1200 calories regiment and exercised 3 days a week, (running mileage 15-18) miles a week. 2: I was hoping my stomach would flatten down, did not see this; 3: My BM would not be too smelly, I did notice an improvement in this area. I take triple fiber to help with my medication of metformin and januvia, so my BM have been normal. I am unsure what direction to go now, since the next step would be a liver cleanse. Unsure if this is needed. Could use some advice.
Waste of Money | (Posted on 7/21/11)
Review by Crissy
I had high hopes for this to work but I had to abandon this cleanse after the first week. Never in my life have I been more constipated, bloated, and irritable. Read all the directions, drank tons of water, and exercised but I felt horrible all the time. Big waste of money in my opinion.
I'd do this again! | (Posted on 7/21/11)
Review by Jen
I finished my first cleanse (hence the name!) last week. I did not feel much of what the others mentioned (no headaches/change in energy/etc.) but this did give me 1-3 good bm's a day. (I thought was was going to be running to the bathroom for two weeks but that was not at all the case.) I have also been reading an excellent book called, "Healing Digestive Illness" that has also been a big help to my diverticulosis. Try these two products out!

Review by Claire
I began two nights ago. I am generally a constipated and bloated person. I have an ok bm every or every other day, but usually don't feel as though its a "satisfied" movement. So far, that hasn't changed, so I may add a fibre supplement. Yesterday afternoon after three doses of the cleanse, I had a terrible headache and fatigue. My gut feeling was that "its working" so I took some Advil and went to bed. After an hour or so nap, I got up and did five hours of gardening without a break! So definitely an increase in energy, feeling much less hungry, and feeling hopeful that the bms will start increasing. I'm actually up 3 pounds this week due to eating all my favourites before my cleanse:~ Now gotta drink water, eat the good stuff, and get the fibre up! Any other tips would be helpful, this review section is great! This cleanse seems gentle so far but wondering if I could have used a more powerful one...
In the thick of it! | (Posted on 6/23/11)
Review by Kitty
My Fiance and I decided to start the cleanse about 4 days ago together. We chose to take a strict vegan diet with it sticking to fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, and eggs (which while not vegan is a great source of protein). So far we're doing okay, I keep having terrible sugar cravings and hes dying for a great piece of chicken, but other than that the typical results - headaches, fatigue, and other mild symptoms. We're really excited to see it through and cant wait to get a few more days in to start feeling better. The toughest part has been finding different things to eat that are within our limitations...one can only eat so many sweet potatoes a week! Stay tuned though - we're going to tough it out and will be back with the results!! Love reading all the positive feedback, it helps drive us forward!

Review by CC
I'm a 51 year old female and finished my first-ever cleanse 2 weeks ago. I've been wanting to try a cleanse for quite some time, bought the kit and, with trepidation, finally decided to jump in. Similar to other reviewers, the first few days, I felt slightly headachy and lethargic. By day 3, my energy was back to normal and I started feeling great. I did need to add the Fibresmart to the mix on day 4 but this corrected a problem with constipation. Overall, I haven't felt this good in many years - I lost that nagging bloated feeling, a number of inches, 7 pounds while on the cleanse and 3 post by continuing with some of the dietary changes. I'm planning to do a 2nd cleanse in the fall as I loved the results and the way I felt throughout the program.
Great first cleanse, before slow carb diet | (Posted on 6/3/11)
Review by Four Hour Body Couple
We decided to do this cleanse over Christmastime, which wasn't the easiest time of year to do it! But, we stuck with the food requirements, and the capsules regularly.
We experienced some of the common symptoms people have, like lower energy for the first few days, and some headache/flu symptoms, but by new year's day we were out and cross country skiing in the mountains, feeling great! And that was at day 10!
We found some days a little more challenging than others, but we both found a more natural balance in our bodies after around the 7 day mark, and it was the perfect kickoff to then enjoying the slow carb diet described in The Four Hour Body by Tim Ferriss.
We started blogging about our experiences, and continue to do so now.
All the best with your First Cleanse, if you're thinking about doing it, then this is the product we trust and recommend to our readers.

Good Intro Cleanse | (Posted on 5/22/11)
Review by HQ
I just finished the two week cleanse and I feel a lightness in all my joints, and a distinct lifting of my brain fog. The first few days I did have symptoms similar to those experienced after getting a flu shot when you're unwittingly harboring a virus: body aches, headache, extreme fatigue. Also my skin became extremely itchy. I called Renew Life's Cleansing & Detox Coach helpline and was reassured that this was within the range of possible initial responses to the detox process. Then the aches and itchiness lifted and I felt much better, so I continued the cleanse. I did have to help the cleanse along with some psyllium husk powder (soluble fiber), but I think I didn't drink enough water. But now my skin is softer, my nails are growing faster, my thinking is clearer, and I have more energy.
Good results | (Posted on 5/16/11)
Review by JK
Had muscle pain and brain fog for years (fybro?) These are mostly gone. I can think more clearly now. Time during treatment was up and down I'm sure due to toxin's. I'm going to try liver detox next. Then probably more detox from this company. Not stellar results but better than I was before trying this. I recommend to try it.

Review by cleansed
This was my first cleanse and I loved it! It helped my bloat, energy, brain fog, skin and more! However, I did get sick with an awful cough...my fiance is convinced it was the cleanse but I'm not so sure since it was during cold season. As soon as my cleanse was done my cough was gone (So I gave 4 instead of 5 stars just in case). Next, I'm going to do the Candigone and I can't wait!

Review by Helen
I have done this First Cleanse 3 times over the last few years. I have a very sensitive system and can only handle a mild cleanse. I am on day 13 of 14. After a long stressful winter, I had adopted wome really bad eating habits. I used this cleanse as a catalyste to better diet and excersize routine. I have already lost 4 pounds and feel fantastic and full of energy! The first few days are rough (giving up all those yummy yet horrible foods) but by day 5 I felt really good. Now I feel great. Awesome first cleanse or great repeat cleanse for those like me!

I was feeling really gasy, diareha, nausea...just toxic in general. I had done a cleanse years ago, and thought maybe it was time. with in 4 days I noticed the gas had stopped. I did stop also with the diareha and then nothing for a few days...by day 9ish I was regular and fealing feeling so much better. Even the clarity in my brain was great. I am finished with the capsules, but I can tell the cleanse is still working its way through. I think I will try the daily cleanse-just to keep the energy level up!

I just started taking the pills yesterday when I stepped on my scale I was 141. When I got back on this morning I am 134. I had a lot of water weight that I couldn't get off but this seemed to do the trick. I can wait to see the end result.
Disappointed | (Posted on 4/5/11)
Review by ALA
I was very disappointed in this cleanse. It was the first time I had tried a cleanse and this was highly recommended. I had more gas, less energy, and overall felt no difference. Was hoping to at least shake the bloated feeling I have. Debated returning the product a few different times but kept my hopes up it was going to start working :S I may try the advanced cleanse.
A wonderful jump start to a new me!!! :) | (Posted on 3/22/11)
Review by Joanne
I have tried a few cleanses, fad soup diets, and am always up for trying something new. For me, a cleanse is a jump start to a healthier way to lose weight, and to eliminate cravings! The herbs in these capsules are fabulous for cleansing! I did have to take the CleanseMORE sample capsule (included) on night #2, but after that I made sure to drink plenty of water, extra flax fiber & Omega 3-6-9 oil.
I am now finished with this 2 week cleanse, and I have absolutely no cravings for the sweets and the treats that I used to indulge in daily. I am still not drinking coffee; instead loving green tea, and no more sugar. I have decided I am going to continue eating a really Clean diet (little to almost no processed foods). I now feel satisfied when I eat healthy and have smaller portions. I have no desire to go back to the bad eating ways, where I so easily get trapped into. My stomach is flat again, and my clothes feel loose!!! I believe I lost about 8 pounds doing this cleanse... BUT, I stuck with eating a clean diet and exercising too, on top of their suggestions they recommended for best results.
On another note. I had some stomach issues for the past few months, and have been taking acid reducer tablets daily, per my Dr's orders. Guess what? I haven't taken that pill in over 2 weeks, and no issues with my stomach anymore!
If you need a jump start, and you are willing to change your ways for 2 weeks, then this could be the jump start that works for you too!
loved it | (Posted on 3/16/11)
Review by kate
I tried this product because I felt it would be a good starting point, not too drastic. It worked great, I felt better and dropped 10 pounds, which I did not expect. My stomach is flatter and I have lost inches. I went and bought one for my husband and he also likes it and has felt the benefits. It is simple to use and provides results. I did have some outbreaks of acne but that was the product working. I will use it again and recommend it highly. I am going to follow up with the liver cleanse or the heavy metal cleanse next.
Very Gentle Start Needs Omega Oil Supplement | (Posted on 2/28/11)
Review by Mylady
The product works. Drink lots of water!! You really need to add one of the Omega Oil products with this cleanse & Fiber. It may be too gentle for some. I did experience slight irregular BM. Adding an Omega Oil product was just the compliment it needed. I am in my mid 40's about 20lbs over weight. Feel bloated & tired all the time This product did make me feel better, but I am not going to run a marathon. lol Ready for the next phase of Renew Life.
pretty good product | (Posted on 2/12/11)
Review by tiffany
This is my 3rd time using 1st cleanse. I have much more energy and less bloating.
I did notice more acne than usual, but better to get the toxins out. I will be continuing with
A deeper cleanse. I haven't used the bathroom as much as I used to, and I believe
It is due to eating more carbs than is really needed. Overall I enjoy this product and can't wait
To start on a deeper and stronger formula.
Good and Bad | (Posted on 2/10/11)
Review by Sarah
I decided to do this cleanse after a bad cold, sinus infection and a round of antibiotics. I had never done a cleanse before, I was nervous about it, so chose this one since it isn't a full-blown cleanse. A little history, I have pretty bad IBS and go about 3 times a day normally, and get diarrhea about every other day. So, for the good - my diarrhea stopped almost immediately upon starting the cleanse, my skin cleared up and my energy increased. The bad - I experienced constipation about 4 times during the cleanse (I am never constipated and did not change any of my eating habits or exercise during the cleanse). I eat a pretty healthy diet on a regular basis, so the constipation was very frustrating. The downside to having more energy, was the insomnia I experienced during the cleanse. I called RenewLife about the insomnia and they assured me that there are no stimulants in the product (which there are not) so maybe I was just sensitive to one of the herbs in the cleanse. I gave it 3 stars because it sort-of worked for me, but the insomnia and constipation I experienced convinced me to not use this cleanse again. But I can see how it works for others.

I have never done a cleanse before, I am 26 years old, and thise was the product I chose to ease into eventually doing a parasite/yeast cleanse. I absolutely loved this! I also used Renew Life's FiberSmart powder which I mixed with yogurt instead of water (SO much better this way!) and a Omega 3-6-9 supplement (my health food store did not have the reccomended Renew Life OilSmart). It was really gentle and effective. i had two regular, thorough bowel movements a day, my skin cleared up, I beat my cheese and meat cravings, and actually lost weight! I am now doing a diy liver detox recipe I found online, and am on day one of that. I love feeling clean inside, I wish I had done this like 10 years earlier!
A great jumpstart into a better health regimen | (Posted on 1/24/11)
Review by Jude
I am a second time user of First Cleanse. I feel more energetic and have less brain fog. Although I drank coffee and wine and ate some processed foods, I lost a couple of pounds. I am encouraged to be more disciplined and use the other recommended cleanses in the 3-step program. This was definitely a good jumpstart into a better health regimen.
Awesome Results | (Posted on 1/24/11)
Review by Rich Gee -Blk M - 45
I started my 15-day acoupling with a Daniel fast. Just fruits and vegetables no process foods. The first 3-days I could tell the different. My BM's were excellent. I've complete the cleanse about a week ago and started the Atkins diet. I'm on my second week of the Atkins diet and BM's are still amazing. This morning I took a dump that made my eyes roll back in my head. For someone who never done a cleansing. I would suggest doing the First Cleanse I'm impressed by the results.
When I was a young I dreamed of a BMW, but now I'm over 40 I dream for the prefect BM. Thank you for this product you've made my dreams come true.

Wonderful Product!!! | (Posted on 12/26/10)
Review by Jen
This was the first cleanse I ever did and I am so happy I found this product. I completed the entire 14-day program and I lost 7 pounds. But more importantly I feel amazing! I have tons of energy and I feel so happy. This product has greatly improved my life. I am going to continue my cleansing journey with a kidney cleanse and parasite cleanse using the Renew Life products.

Review by Beauty
I, too, felt very tired the first couple of days taking this. I was not expecting any weight loss but wanted to feel less bloated and overall "cleaner". I felt neither. All this product did was make my stools looser. I went about 3 times a day, whereas before, I was only voiding once a day. My skin did break out the first couple of days as well. I am a 38-year-old stay-at-home mother of 2, a healthy eater and walk 45 minutes, briskly, 4-5 days a week plus do at-home strength exercises such as light free weights and exercise ball. I am disappointed but "you live and you learn."

Review by mkskin
I took this product in April right before i wedding i was standing in,(2wks before) I noticed that i was getting small white bumps on my forhead after the 3 day of using it. I then stopped due to being in the wedding, so i cont to use it after the wedding instead. I did have some cramps but not to the point that i was going to pass out or anything it was only a day or two after that I was back to normal....BUT my skin!! so I was getting more and more of this little white bumps on my face, it really bothers me! Keep in mind i have perfect PERFECT skin most of all my life. I dont know what i did wrong, it is July now and I'm still getting "effects" of my skin breaking out!! I have gfs telling me that they have know me 15-20 yrs and have never seen my skin so bad =(. I do realize that this was my first time of "detoxing" and that maybe i have LOTS of bad toxin in my body but i just want to know how long this will take?? i want my skin back!!! i would use this product again since there was no horrible side effects BUT what it did to my skin im not sure i would anymore. It is very stressful for me since I'm in the skin industry all the blimish on my face is not helping!!!

Vibrant skin, but... | (Posted on 6/17/10)
Review by Melissa
I decided to cleanse after a week-long vacation which included consuming many of my favorite foods! Prior to this indulgence, I have been experiencing a nine-month bout of extreeme bloating (I do have a daily BM). I was hoping the cleanse would combat this discomfort. Four days into the cleanse, I noticed my back acne dissappear! Also, my friends comment on how clear my facial skin looks now! However, the bloating has persisted. I do follow a wheat free, lactose free diet which consists of whole-grains, organic produce, lean meats and eggs. I'm looking to try either the parasite or candida cleanse next. Perhaps microbes are to blame...

This is only my 4th days into the cleanse. I have noticed that my muscles are achy and tight. I also have an increased apetite. I am drinking the required amount of water and have added more fiber to my diet. Is the achy muscles normal? I have stretched and stretched and they still ach, like when your fixing to get the flu.

Review by EboBrown
This is a two week program and I am now on my third day. I don't feel any change at all. This is my first cleanse. I bought it because I have lots of flatulence, and I do not have a BM daily. If I do have a BM, it's not a normal one. Still waiting for regularity. When these two weeks are up, I'm going to try to regular strength Cleanse Smart.

I actually lost 10lbs during this cleanse. Always a welcome side-effect in my opinion. No harsh side effects either.
Almost done | (Posted on 5/28/10)
Review by Alicia
I have almost finished my cleanse and all though I am less bloated I haven't noticed anything positive. I don't normally break out ever, but about a week into the cleanse I woke up with huge blemishes overnight, I also experienced frequent headaches. I did change my diet and stuck to what they recommended, and I still was running to the bathroom. I will try the next step with the advanced cleanse and see if I experience anything different.
Effective | (Posted on 5/12/10)

I found FirstCleanse quite effective. When I ran out, I had to find a place that sold product near me as it is very important for my daily health and mental well being, in spite of the changes I made in my diet.
Noticed a Difference | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Florence
I usually have one bowel movement a day, but now, while taking FirstCleanse, I am having two or three. I do feel less bloated and my stomach isn't as big as it has been.
Clear Skin! | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Byron
I suffered from a severe psoriasis condition since childhood. Three weeks after beginning First Cleanse my psoriasis cleared by ninety percent. Within two months it was gone. I wouldn't waste my time with anything else. Some things have been helpful (change in diet), but this product is tops. I spent years using cortisol creams and tar shampoo only to see the condition return worse. With the cleanse I immediately noticed a reduction in stomach bloating and my skin began to clear. I followed the outline in the pamphlet that comes with the box and insured I exercised each day and reduced processed foods. This product should be a staple of the medical community for skin issues.
No Side Effects | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Marsha R.
Elimination was huge everyday even if I didn't eat much that day. Bowel movements felt complete where they weren't before. I might have lost some weight. My stomach is flatter. I'm not as hungry during the cleanse. I feel compelled to do this on a regular basis and can't stand the idea of having all that build up stay in my system so long. I was amazed at the amount and was glad to get rid of it. I felt fine with no side effects or reactions. Everyone should do this periodically.
Not Crabby | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by T.M.
My face has significantly cleared. I've had no new blemishes since beginning first cleanse. I also notice I am sleeping more soundly and have regular bowel movements, almost predictable! Moods have been steady, no "crabby" moments. Thank you!
Better skin too! | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Sandra
Last month because of a mucus discharge in my bowel, I took First Cleanse. The results: my skin seems to have changed to "glowing" and my overall body seems to have lost girth, I feel more taut.
No aches! | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Peggy G.
I just completed First Cleanse. Within the first week I noticed 3 things: my left leg (which has been swollen for about 20 years) was much less swollen and felt like my leg. The bone on the top of my arch no longer aches at the end of the day. My bunion or gout does not ache. My stomach is no longer bloated.
Easy Recovery | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Susan
I used First Cleanse to prepare me for surgery. Since I didn't know what would come after, I knew that my body would need as much help as I could give it. It was also mentally empowering to do something for me prior to the "long" wait (17 days). Happy ending ... my bowel started up the day after surgery with no problems. I credit my easy recovery to First Cleanse.
IT WORKS | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Rosalind F.
I am using First Cleanse, as a first time cleanser. I have taken first three days and noticing an almost immediate change in my energy, but am experiencing constipation. I have been able to move my bowels by increasing my magnesium and vitamin C supplements, but have not achieved anything near normal bowel function. On the evening of my first day I did take the cleanse support laxative (CleanseMore) and repeated it last evening (my third day). Today I didn't even take the cleansing formula, because I have a full feeling. I did research all the available cleansing products, and chose FirstCleanse because as described, it best suited my needs. I have a daily BM (sometimes 2 or 3), that I would describe as fairly normal.
Thank You | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Sheri H.
I've tried other detox programs and have had severe headaches and cramping as side effects. With FirstCleanse, these side-effects are very minimal and hardly noticeable. I cannot believe the difference it's made for me. I feel like a new person. I can think more clearly and I've got so much more energy. I'm a believer in cleansing now.
Amazed | (Posted on 5/5/10)
Review by Jan D.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. I was given Lyrica, Muscle Relaxers and a heavy duty Advil for the pain and stiffness. The meds weren't something I wanted to take, but in desperation did take them for a period of time. I talked with my neurologist about "alternative medicine" and he gave me a suggestion. I went to Gary's World of Wellness and spoke to them. I did First Cleanse, and within 4 days of using this product the pain started to subside. The stiffness was going away. I had more energy and was amazed.

I bought this product through a local natural vitamin store, because it was my first cleanse..overall I haven't had any problems or discomforts, I was expecting more of a cleansing type effect(not a harsh one)..I do feel slightly more energetic..I wish as Karen F(above) that I had no allergy issues, while taking this product..but I have had terrible spring allergies..so maybe that is why I am not feeling to sure about the effectiveness of this product!..I guess for a first time cleanse it is doing whatever it is supposed to..Pros~helped my nails grow/overall enery!
Day4 | (Posted on 4/13/10)
Review by Chalsea75
My thoughts in day 4, I didn't experience anything until day 3 and for me that was a feeling of being full and not hungry, but on day 4 my world has opened up and I am looking forward to completing this program. I feel a little dehydrated but that is because I need to drink more water....other than that, it is gentle. Looking forward to the coming days. Also, I thought I would have to use the "support pills" that came with it but I opted not to and to increase my water intake as to ease the feeling which it has.
Problems are gone | (Posted on 4/2/10)
Review by Karen F
I just finished the FirstCleanse and I am happy to report that my skin looks fantastic - no blemishes in 10 days and the color of my skin is warm and vibrant! Additionally, I suffer horribly from Spring allergies. I am amazed that I haven't had any problems - no sneezing, no sinusitis, no itchy/watery eyes, no headaches, no fatigue. I take allergy medications year-round but decided not to use them during the detox. I have had NO allergy problems so far, I can hardly believe it. I'm really looking forward to the advanced cleanse (CleanseSmart). Thank you for a reliable product and for making this all so easy!

Parfums de Nicolai Vanille Tonka
Thread: Vanilla + Incense?
I really like the drydown of Tom Ford extreme - the combo of vanilla and incense sticks. However, it does have sillage and longevity issues. So. I'm looking for suggestions for other fragrances that have this vanilla + incense component.
I usually prefer incense notes a bit more subtle - the CdG line is bordering on the unwearable imo - I don't want to smell like incense per se, I rather look for a oriental/sweet base with an incense aspect if that makes sense...
Parfums de Nicolai Vanille Tonka
Please feel free to check out my Swap Thread - Patou pour Homme, L'Instant de Guerlain PH Extreme, Dior Homme Intense, Pure Malt, Pure Coffee and many more! Click Here For My Swap Thread
How about VC&A Midnight in Paris? How would it compare to TF Extreme? Other suggestions?
For "cheapos" that are good, there is Jacomo Rouge and Mesmerize for Men by Avon. JR is drier and a bit gourmand. My favorite is Messe de Minuit, but it has more patchouli than vanilla.

Samples, etc. for Sale at my Crystal Flacon page: http://flacon.ambaric.net/viewtopic.php?t=282
My fragrance blog: http://bigslyfragrance.wordpress.com/
L'Occitane's Eau des Baux
l'Air du Desert Marocain
Perhaps Costume National 21? Creamy and soft incense with some spices, florals and woods. But the incense is always prominent. Enough for you to tell its incense, but not enough to smell like a church.
I prefer spice over florals generally, especially florals tending to the feminine side. Vanilla Tonka is probably not my cup. I've tried L'air du desert Marocain I can't do with the floral aspect... I'm looking for more of a dense, amber, dark oriental-woody type fragrance, preferrably spicy, with incense. I'll check out everyone's suggestions.
Vanilia by L'Artisan has an amber base so that might work...
Tom Ford Splits!!!! - Tobacco Vanille, Tuscan Leather, Oud Wood, Noir de Noir - PATCHOULI ABSOLU
Plum Japonais, Italian Cypress, Neroli Portofino, Costa Azzura, Azure Lime, Champacca Absolute
HARD TO FIND - Lavender Palm, Arabian Wood, and AMBER ABSOLUTE, etc...
Most of the time I am very proud of the Basenotes community. Time after time I have witnessed the thoughtfulness, empathy & genuine friendship that members of this community extend to others - oldtimers & newcomers alike. There are other times, however, when egos get the upper hand and civility goes out the window. My philosophy is that I won't say anything here that I would not say if you were standing in front of me. Welcome to Basenotes, each and every one of us. ~ TwoRoads
Shalimar has a lot of smoke and vanilla. I'm not sure if it actually contains any frankincense/incense, but it sure smells like it does.
I love TFE and wish it would be better with better projection and longevity. Or be cheap enough to reapply. It's neither so I only use it in quiet times when I can reflect and enjoy. Too bad. For an 'extreme' is isn't very much that at all and it coming in an EDP would make this possibly better.

XerJoff Modoc.
There are literally thousands of perfumes with incense and vanilla notes, but it is much more common in ladies perfumes more than in gentlemen (Shalimar is a good example), so there is plenty from where to chose LOL.
My favorite: Signature for Men by S.T. Dupont
Runner up: Witness by Jacques Bogart
but consider also:
L'Uomo by Trussardi
Jacomo de Jacomo Rouge
Gucci for men
Antidote by Viktor&Rolf
Tiffany for men
Oscar de la Renta for men
and finally, Black Orchid by Tom Ford, although is listed for women, it is considered unisex by many.
How does ST Dupont signature differ from TF Extreme? Is it correct that it has been discontinued? Seems like a blind buy is the only option here... :S
Layer Guerlain's Spiriteuse Double Vanilla with CdG's Sequoia.
Creed's Angelique Encens fits your description and has excellent longevity on me at least.
This one's easy:
* "Cologne Bois d'Argent" (Dior) is split down the middle in equal parts incense and vanilla, and you wouldn't expect a cologne concentration to have as much longevity as it does.
* And Gucci pour Homme is a darker take on the vanilla and incense theme, with something animalic (civet?) going on as well.
Both absolutely flawless.
I've recently got a bottle of the vintage, if it makes a difference, M7 and there is some strong similarities between TFE and M7. Not so surprising since M7 was the first frag to come out of YSL after Tom Ford took control. Other than the medicinal note that permeates M7 they are very, very close. TFE has a bit more of the powdery feel ramped up in it, as well.
***My SALE thread***My TRADE thread***
Frag addicted? Join the support group We are too but dam we smell good!
Diptyque Eau Duelle , vanilla and incence its not horrendously expensive and its very very good imho
+1 on ST Dupont Signature pour Homme - it's not too sweet, just awesome! Was a blind buy for me.
+1 on Diptyque's Eau Duelle esp. if you prize 'subtlety'.
I'm not too sure about Shalimar though - it could be tricky; the EDP has a lot more going on than vanilla & incense. Try it for yourself.
You could try Guerlain Bois d'Armenie or Fahrenheit Absolute (not incense, but vanilla and smokey rubber)
Parfums de Nicolai Vanille Tonka was the very first thing I thought of when I saw the thread title... it's awesome! Vanilla and Frankincense..... not too sweet...
The first thing that comes to mind is Body Kouros
Habit Rouge edp and Patchouli 24 (Le Labo)

I think that midnight in paris in the edp version is a great choice. The drydown has a beautiful accord of vanilla + tonka that ends in a light incense note with benjoim.
I also think that bvlgari black has a smoke vanilla aura + the leather and rubber accord

Unusual symptoms of asthma
Reader Stories
Patients suffering from episodes of asthma do not always have the typical symptoms of asthma such as shortness of breath, chest tightness, and wheezing (symptoms of airway narrowing). Instead, patients can have symptoms that may not appear to be related to asthma. These "unusual" asthma symptoms include
To complicate matters, symptoms of asthma are not consistent and often vary from time to time in an individual. In some patients, symptoms are influenced by diurnal factors; for example, some patients experience asthma primarily at night (nocturnal asthma) rather than during the day. Furthermore, episodes of asthma can be triggered by many different factors such as allergens, dust, smoke, perfumes, cold air, exercise, infections, medications, and acid reflux. Finally, other illness such as heart failure, bronchitis, and dysfunction of the vocal cords can cause symptoms that mimic those of asthma. For these reasons, accurately diagnosing and treating asthma can be a challenge.
For a comprehensive review of symptoms, causes, and treatments of asthma, and for a better understanding of the normal anatomy of the airways (trachea, bronchi, bronchioles and the lung), please visit the asthma article.

Billstaf wrote:I got the Barska 4X28 IR Electro scope for my AR. Fit and finish looked OK.The scope never would hold a zero. Finally, the front lens just came completely loose inside the scope housing. I went to the Barska web site and asked about repair/replacement possibilities twice. They claim a response within 24 hours, but I have heard nothing back from them after either attempt.As it is right now, this scope is worthless junk. Barska apparently isn't much interested in customer service. I've learned my lesson and will only purchase reliable optics in the future. I know they cost a lot more, but in the end it will be worth it.What I will do is warn any others who are willing to listen about my experience with Barska. There are lots of gun forums for me to do this on.
