I felt hot and weird after drinking my cabbage juice. Has anyone ever felt this?

Question

Im on a cabbage juice diet to heal an ulcer but I felt weird shortly after having two cups.. I felt warm and weird like I had a fever all of a sudden. Are there any side effects from this?

other than that its been doing a great job healing my ulcer and ridding stomach pain.

and yes I have a doctor, they just don't know everything. I am so curious about this feeling I had just now, I thought Id put the question out there to anyone who has had something similar to this. I do not have thyroid problems.

Does this mean that you haven't told your Doctor that you're drinking cabbage juice?  If you are taking prescription meds, the juice may be interfering with the effectiveness of the meds.

Answer 2

Yes, I have felt that. Cabbage is high in sulfur which is very "heating"

Answer 3

wow umm actually big props for actually drinking the stuff but sorry i can't actually help you on this

Answer 4

Cabbage is a very cleansing juice. It makes your blood very alkaline (which is good, but not if done too much) and that starts releasing toxins from your body. Since you have an ulcer, the sulfur containing toxin reactors in cabbage, can go right into your blood stream right away as you have no cells there to block absorption. With this intense toxin releaser in your system, I would be careful not to overdo it. Maybe back off on how much you are taking (if the weird and hot factor - kind of like a niacin flush perhaps?- is making you feel uncomfortable). I never tried cabbage juice, but had a similar reaction to beet juice (more cleansing than cabbage from what I hear). I just backed away from the amount I was taking and it cleared up.

Good luck healing your ulcer! Remember to work on de-stressing your life too! Or whatever caused you to get an ulcer in the first place. You don't want to get it all better, and then have it come back!
