In the September edition of the Ladies' Home Journal Michelle Obama lets slip that she does the occasional dietary cleanse.
Generally a cleanse involves a very low calorie quasi fast during which the cleanser may also take natural laxatives. The theory behind most cleanses is that you excrete toxins from your body.
Mainstream medicine scoffs at cleanses, points out that there is no evidence that they are even necessary or work, and notes that the liver, kidneys, lungs, and intestines are very efficient filters.
In reaction to the First Lady's revelation mainstream medical commentators gently registered concern, and the First Lady's press office quickly released a statement that Ms. Obama merely increases vegetables, and cuts meats, fats, dairy, caffeine, and sugar during her cleanses.

But I thought mainstream medicine recommended just such a thing: once a decade after one turns 50 in advance of a colonoscopy.

Thinking of her doing a “cleanse” is a great diet plan for the rest of us! That image=loss of appetite.

So now we know the reason behind that puckered up look she has in so many pictures.
Always thought she looked as if she is in pain....now she has shared with us the reason for her pained look.
