I don't think that just because symptoms of something go away after awhile that it means they are "good" for you.
For example.
If we run with the smoking/drinking concept.
When you START smoking, you'll probably feel like vomiting, and dizzy.
When you START drinking, you may get sick and vomit, pass out, etc.
These are negative side effects.
If you KEEP doing them, you will eventually build a resistance to them. And then you won't experience the same side effects.
That doesn't make drinking or smoking OK, now that you aren't experiencing the negative side effects. (perceptibly)
But if you are addicted and you stop doing them, then you'll get withdrawal symptoms.
So is it OK to get "detox" symptoms as a result of changing your diet?
And then when you go back to a "normal" diet, you get negative effects too? (But this time attribute them to the "bad" food you must be eating?)
It was "good" when you went through the "first" round of "detox" but when you go back to a "normal" diet, then THOSE negative effects are "bad."
Pretty interesting to me...
