Hi there
I decided to start a juice fast for weight and constant problems with my intestines constipation and constant hunger. I also have Candida which gives me cravings for chocolate,cakes ,carbs and caffeine and is a bit out of control as my weight has shot up. I am also on medications for depression and anxiety.

I started the juice fast of with a Bentonite and pysillium husk shake 1st thing in the morning ( as i was told this will help with waste removal from the colon and detox the body).

i drank plenty of water and herbal teas. After 5pm i started to feel really rough and felt like the Bentonite and pysillium husk shake was stuck or obstructing my bowels in some way.

I started to get the most horrendous neck pain and headache i have ever had and tried to drink plenty of fluids and juice but started getting nausea i started being sick it was mainly yellow stomach acid and water and then followed the juice i drank .

The head aches got much worse and felt awful ...i must say i did not have any bowel movements since the day before also. I tried to drink water and could not keep it down and though it would be dangerous of me to carry on with the fast bringing up all the fluids i was taking in, so i had to stop and tried to eat a little of solid food and brought that up to.

Early hours of the morning i had the worst pain ever in my back and lower intestines and towards the lower ladies area which brought me out in a sweat and i felt delirious had to take pain killers and hot water bottle to bed to try and sleep it of.

Can anyone tell me what i did wrong and if i may have poisoned myself with the Bentonite and pysillium husk shake?

I must say it was the most painful experience i have ever had and i am concerned i have caused my body some damage and its put me of doing a fast due to the extreme effects i had,as i have never done one before. Any help or advice would be great thanks!
