How does Detox Work?

Human Model How the Ultimate Herbal DETOX works.

Stage 1. PREPARATION
Over a period of three days you gradually eliminate all meats, processed food, legumes, nuts and grain products from your diet.
This includes all breads, pasta, beans, cheese and any other refined, packaged, canned or preserved products. You may need to do this for up to a week to adjust fully before proceeding to stage 2. The longer your preparation is, the better your results will be. Up to two weeks can be necessary for some people.

Stage 2. BEGIN TAKING THE HERBS
You will have over 20 herbs in combination and take up to 40 capsules daily. Take the herbs twice daily while following the strict diet and recipes provided. Transition into detox mode can sometimes mean passing through a short phase of headaches, nausea, agitation, fatigue, gas or bloating. This should not be uncomfortable and if so, the program should be stopped for a day. If you are comfortable and get through the first three days of transition then you can move into stage 3.

Stage 3. DETOX
This is normally between day 4 and day 10 of my program. You should find that your bowel movements increase in urgency, size and frequency. Many people experience between 4 and 6 semi-solid bowel movements daily. Around day 8, 9 and 10 is when the real rewards often begin to appear. Impactions (or plaque as it is often referred to) can start to appear. See this plaque picture. You can imagine the benefits of removing this type of build up from your body. The body can then detoxify on many levels, including liver, kidney and lymphatic system.

Stage 4. FOLLOW UP
It is important to get a good course of probiotics and keep the healthy diet going as long as possible. Immediately returning to a bad diet will not be received well by your body. People often improve long term eating habits after my DETOX.

Food for detox
Since modern food is a major source of our toxin build up, a return to raw, whole and unprocessed food is an important part of the DETOX program. You will get recipes with your program, but here is a list of foods I suggest you can use while completing my herbal DETOX.

JUICES
Juice combinations could contain the following: apple, beetroot, capsicum (bell pepper), carrot, celery, grape, grapefruit, lemon, mango, orange, papaya, pear, pineapple, tomato, wheatgrass or barley grass.

YOGHURT SMOOTHIES
This is a great way to start your day. Just take your favorite fruit (sorry no bananas as they are too starchy for this cleanse) and fruit juice and add some organic plain yoghurt. Throw in some spirulina, barley grass or wheat grass powder for more energy.

FRUIT SALADS
Try combining different fruit and cover with fruit juice and yoghurt. You can include oranges, lemons, pears, nectarines, plums, peaches, pineapple, kiwifruit, apples, mangoes, cherries, prunes, apricots, papaya, watermelon, all berries, (no bananas, too starchy).

VEGETABLE SALADS
These can include lettuce, cabbage, silver beet, tomato, avocado, spring onion, basil, chives, beetroot, broccoli, bean sprouts, carrot, rocket, parsley, coriander (cilantro), cucumber, cauliflower, mushrooms, celery, capsicum (bell pepper) and any green leafy vegetable. Dress with garlic, yoghurt, lemon juice, cold pressed olive oil, apple cider vinegar and herbs.

LIGHTLY STEAMED OR STIR FRIED VEGETABLES
Any of the vegetables above can be used, plus pumpkin, parsnip, eggplant (aubergine), zucchini (courgette, marrow), sweet potato, mushrooms, carrot, leek, broccoli, cauliflower.

OTHER IDEAS
Vegetable soups can contain any of the above vegetables without flour, barley or split peas. Pumpkin or tomato soups are my favorite. Celery sticks with a little hummus, carrot sticks with guacamole (avocado and garlic dip); asparagus, cucumber or beetroot. Prunes, dates, figs, raisins, olives, gherkins or pickled onions are all OK in small amounts.

Some of the benefits of the Ultimate Herbal Detox are:

Better bowel function
Bowel motions can increase reducing the load on your intestine. This means instead of going once every day, or even every other day, your bowel can start to move twice daily or more. This is very rewarding.

Improved digestion
This bowel & colon cleansing effect encourages increased digestion and better absorption of nutrients, giving increased energy and sense of wellbeing and better digestion.

Emotional release
With better elimination and improved digestion come increased metabolism, more energy and an almost electrical positivity. This means emotional detoxification is encouraged. Feeling good and dumping emotional baggage can lift the spirits. Detox for better mental balance

Weight management
Because digestion, elimination and positive emotions are all supported, healthy weight management is a common outcome of herbal detox.

Circulation encouraged
By taking the build up of toxins out of the body the load is reduced on the heart, kidneys and liver while pure water, juices, minerals and vitamins are increased in the foods eaten. The heart is greatly supported as are the blood vessels. This is turn benefits the skin, brain, and internal organs with nutrients.

The powerful herbal combinations include psyllium, wormwood, black walnut, fennel, ginger, cayenne, clove, cascara, milk thistle, slippery elm, peppermint, kiwifruit, licorice, guar gum, carob, barley grass, bilberry, kelp, dandelion, goldenseal and Turkish rhubarb. During the Herbal Detox these herbs are taken in multiple capsule form and work to soften compacted fecal matter, strip away plaque build-up and remove parasites and detrimental bacteria. The healing food you are recommended for the course, and the wholesome herbs in the Herbal Detox ensure that your liver and kidneys are cleansed and their functions stimulated.

Simply by following the instructions provided you will gain the absolute best inner body cleanse, body flush and detoxification available.
