Hi there, I'm new and recently pregnant. I've done the liver cleansing diet a couple of times (when not pregnant) and have had terrific results. I'm just wondering if any of you have maintained the liver cleansing diet and more importantly - the tonic that you take each day - while you were pregnant. I emailed Dr Cabot, but the response said I need to consult my GP. My GP doesn't even think you should take folate, so I can pretty much predict her response. Thanks. ↓

Any change in diet is iffy while pregnant, but particularly the cleansing diets can be dangerous because some cause contractions. Please don't do this while pregnant, and despite your feelings about weight gain, please know that if you eat a "normal" three squares a day, the baby will take on that weight. You don't have to go to extremes and your baby will be healthy too. Take care. ↑
