Horseradish ??

[abba]

In reading the forum more today I came across some older posts about horseradish and the Whooshie effect. (losing a couple pounds overnight)

Does this really work? Also, on the induction phase can I mix mayonnaise and horseradish to make a sauce for my tenderloin?

Thanks!

Re: Horseradish ??

As horseradish is known to be a dieuretic I think it can cause a 'woosh' by making you lose 'water weight'. However this is usually temporary.

Mixing any of the 'legal' ingredients is fine, so assuming your mayo has no 'added sugar' in the ingredients and you are using plain horseradish (not horseradish sauce which might have sugar and starches in it) then it should be fine.

I second what Elizellen says about the water weight loss that comes after eating horseradish. It really did have a whoosh effect on me, but was short lived.

Mayo and horseradish is a marriage made in heaven!

Re: Horseradish ??

I did the horseradish thing lastnight just to see if it worked and it was a true blessing. i got my TOM this morning with no water weight or bloating, i must have experieced the whoosh effect over night because this is the first time i've not suffered from the water weight (I had a huge movement this morning also) had to be due to the horseradish. so glad i read this thread, even if it is short lived, it served the purpose for my monthly.
