Start your cleansing by adding 1 tablespoon of psyllium husk powder in a glass of pure juice.  It can be a carrot juice, apple juice, pineapple juice or a combination of any fruits and vegetables depending on your taste.  Take it 30 minutes before or after taking your breakfast, lunch and before going to bed.  This allows the fiber to work effectively and absorb the toxins that your cell has excreted and enables bowel movement the following day.  The psyllium husk powder thickens quickly whatever you add to it and may transform into a gelatinous quality that may give a slightly bad taste.  Drink it quickly after making the mixture.

There are other ways and methods that you can do to make your own high fiber diet.  Always keep it natural and fresh.  Keep in mind though that like any forms of cleansing diet introduced, it is always best and a must that you take as much water as you can.  The extra fluids will moisten the contents of the bowel that the psyllium has absorbed.  In addition to that, water is highly needed to prevent the body from dehydration.
