Detoxification: Spring cleaning inside and out

Smaller Text Larger Text email article print article
Every day thousands of chemicals make their way into our ecosystems and can end up in our bodies, through the air, the water we drink and even our food. Many of these chemicals are highly toxic and as blood circulates past cells, toxic molecules can stick to proteins, cell membranes or other cell components, and be retained by the body. Even minuscule amounts of toxins can accumulate and:
  • Increase cancer risk
  • Damage the brain and nervous system
  • Compromise immunity
  • Alter hormonal balance and cellular energy production
  • Increase free radical damage
A Total Nutritional Cleansing Program
 
Becoming more and more popular every year, a seven day nutritional cleansing program can be used once a year, or more often, to revitalize, renew and detoxify for a fresh feeling and improved health. Its main components can also be used daily or weekly for nutritional and detoxification support.
 
Step I:
 
For chronic digestive problems, diminished appetite or multiple food intolerances, a low allergy potential, low glycemic index, high nutrition supplement can ease, heal and rejuvenate the gut any time the digestive system has been stressed or abused.
 
Step II:
 
Traditional liver and colon purges and cleansing products/programs do not support all of the body’s key detoxification processes. They can increase circulating toxins but not fully dispose of them, causing toxic side effects and circulating heavy metals and toxins back into the organs.

Ensure that you choose a product that fully supports every process used by the body to transport, detoxify and excrete heavy metals and other toxic substances. While it removes toxins, it should nourish the gut with a full spectrum of vitamins, minerals, protein, complex carbohydrates, fibre and phytonutrients.
 
Individuals with serious health concerns such as active bowel disorders and/or diabetes should consult a nutritionally-oriented health care practitioner if planning to do a cleanse. Pregnant mothers shouldn’t go on a detoxification program.
 
Liver Health Formula
 
Many unique compounds work synergistically to support the liver, even when liver function is severely impaired (hepatitis, cirrhosis), including: glucuronate to bind to toxins and help eliminate them; alpha-lipoic acid which protects the liver from free radical damage and promotes detoxification; and silybin phytosome, a superior form of milk thistle extract.
 
Herbal Laxative
 
A highly effective herbal laxative formula improves circulation of bile and relieves constipation. Using time-tested herbs, a trusted formula can be used for safe, natural regularity. Always take with lots of water to facilitate elimination.
 
Parasite Formula
 
About 1 in 10 North Americans have parasite infections, often from eating raw meat, raw fish (sushi), or through contaminated water or food. Some parasites can live for many years in their host, leaching nutrients, secreting toxins and compromising health. Symptoms of parasitic infection include diarrhea, GI upset, vaginal irritation, joint pain, immune dysfunction and chronic fatigue.
 
A combination of the best anti-parasitic herbs in one convenient formula provides ease of use and effectiveness. A herbal combination may effectively eliminate parasites, as well as yeast, fungal, bacterial, viral disease-causing pathogens.
 
Dandelion root

Supports liver function and stimulates the release of bile from the gallbladder. It helps clear obstructions and stimulates the liver to detoxify. Dandelion contains all the nutritive salts required for the body to purify the blood. It promotes healthy circulation, strengthens weak arteries, cleanses skin blemishes and restores the gastric balance.
 
Herbal Diuretic
 
This superior combination of standardized herbal extracts promotes urine flow and flushes away waste, reducing puffiness of edema and gently stimulating the body's cleansing system.
 
N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC)
 
This is a highly stable form of cysteine, an important sulphur-containing amino acid. NAC is a precursor to glutathione. It has the ability to maintain healthy lung tissue, support immunity and enhance cellular health and longevity.
