I completed the DETOX in 5 days – found it very beneficial. My Weight benefited, but not the reason for the DETOX. Definitely recommend to others. No problems, as my diet is similar to your recommendations. Thanks, Heather
My vital health stats improved – Kerry
I wish to share a long story with you, but I will try and write it in considerable brevity. In 1998 and at 40 I was a NZ Masters Games Champion, winning 4 Golds & 1 Silver in rowing events. In 2000 the electrician working on our house, also a personal friend, phoned up my wife at work to complain that I was crawling around on the floor making noises. I had the energy to get up for 1/2 hour a day, the rest of the time I was in a netherworld. My face would burn and peel every 3 to 10 days. I had M.E. or CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome). Western Medicine had no answer for it. …well, a suggestion of B12 injections I did not consider an answer. I studied a lot about it to realise I knew more than the doctors. The professional that I attribute to saving my life was a Chinese Herbal Medicine Doctor here in Dunedin. The impact of the herbal medicine was dramatic, within 12 hours I was moving from “dark days of the soul” toward being at what I estimated to be 80% mental & physical capacities after 5 years. Yes! It still took 5 years to get that far. Indeed after 5 years a person I met who was still only at 40% capacities after 10 years told me they did not believe that I had had M.E. Anyway, to me, still being at 80% is still only 80%. Could I be better? I thought that could be an impossible dream. One aspect of the Chinese treatment was detoxing. I had learnt about the dross that collects in our bowels from another alternative health practitioner some years ago. One day last year I picked up a catalogue lying around the house and declared that, “I am going to do this DETOX”. I wanted to “see” what the DETOX was doing to me so I employed a Tanita InnerScan Body Composition Monitor Scale to track the effects of the DETOX on my body. After all, if I was carrying kilograms of “bog” in my bowels I was interested to know just how much. On November the 4th 2006 my stats were as follows: Weight 93.0 kg Bodyfat 24.6% (not that healthy) Metabolic Age 50 (note that my actual age was 48. Insulting !) Bone Weight 3.5 kg Muscle Weight 66.6 kg Visceral Fat Rating 11 (above 12 is really bad, …high health risk …only one step off !) Water 51% I did the “fast diet” for 5 days. On the 21st November, at the end of the “fast phase” these were my stats: Weight 89.2 kg (lost 3 kg in 5 days!) Bodyfat 23.4% (not significant) Metabolic Age 47 (that made me happy) Bone Weight 3.4 kg Muscle Weight 65.0 kg Visceral Fat Rating 10 (moving in the right direction!) Water 51.6% Part way through on the 25th November and then interesingly at the end on 30 November the stats were unchanged on… Weight 91.9 kg ( I took back some weight after shock of the fast, but look at the other stats! So it was probably a kilogram of intestinal dross I lost.) Bodyfat 21.2% (I haven’t been that low in years. I am way in the “healthy range”) Metabolic Age 39 ( I am in my 30’s again !!!!!!!!) Bone Weight 3.6 kg Muscle Weight 68.8 kg Visceral Fat Rating 9 ( I’m definitely at low risk now with much less of the dangerous fat around the belly! ) Water 53.5% (I’m higher up the healthy range for males). In summary, all vital health stats improved after the DETOX. I especially like chopping 11 years off my physiological (metabolic) age. However, an epilogue to the DETOX, the biggest news months later, is that I may be able to say that I have 100% thrown M.E. Without having done any training to prepare, on the spur of the moment, I got up at 6:30 am in February 2007 to paddle 8 hours 50 minutes down the Taieri River. I was exhausted and barely able to walk at the end of it. The next days I waited for the M.E. relapse I could have expected in other years. It did not come. This is such a big thing to me that when I think about it now I still want to shout joy from mountain tops. Kerry
My bowel problem was fixed – Fran

The Ultimate Herbal DETOX is very effective – Daniel
Over the last ten years I’ve tried many cleanses – homemade and store bought. I started using the Ultimate Herbal DETOX at our Yoga Teacher Trainings to give our trainees the option of taking their personal and physical transformation to a deeper level. I like that it’s composed of natural herbs. The Ultimate Herbal DETOX works well for us in that it’s both effective and yet gentle enough that it allows our trainees to keep focused on their intense studies. It’s easy to use and easy to adjust the intensity of it. We have a great time all cleansing together. Daniel Aaron, Founder Radiantly Alive Yoga
I’ve been raving to everyone about the Detox – Melana
Here are some GREAT photos from my [colon] cleanse if you’re keen. I have them blown up and laminated especially for the client’s viewing pleasure! LOL 🙂 I’ve been raving about it to everyone. I would be very interested in stocking the detox kit in my clinic. I’m pretty small fry though. Awesome. Take care and God Bless You!!! Thank you so much for putting this product together. I look forward to trying your new and improved kit in the future. Love and blessings, Melana
It’s the easiest of all Detoxes – Janet
Throughout the years I have done several different cleansing programs. Though this was still ‘hard work’ (getting through those early cravings for ‘forbidden’ food) it was the easiest of all DETOX’s that I have tried, yet the results were rewarding. At the end my thinking was clearer, my energy had returned and healthy eating habits had been re-established. I no longer craved those unhealthy foods that I knew I shouldn’t be eating…which makes me realize that it’s time to do it again! Janet
I’m nearly through my 2nd Detox with great results – Anonymous

I lost the nagging baby weight – Michelle
I began taking the DETOX back in February of 2009. I had given birth to my first child almost 10 months earlier and was having trouble losing that extra baby weight. I was tired and slow and unhappy with how I looked and felt. Then I saw an ad for the Herbal DETOX and thought “why not?!” As soon as it arrived I read the booklet and made the conscious decision that I was going to do whatever I could to follow the diet. Little did I realize just how easy it was going to be. Along with the DETOX and diet I made the effort to go to the gym at least twice a week and went on walks to the park with my daughter several times a week. The results I saw were amazing! Not only did I lose that nagging baby weight, I lost additional LBS. I have more energy to enjoy and play with by beautiful daughter and love the way that I look. My husband is very happy with the results as well. I will definitely (and have) recommend this DETOX program to family and friends. I am now starting the Herbal Slim program and can’t wait to see the results! Michelle
The best outcome, my fuzzy brain worked again – Gitte
Finished my 10 day detox about a week ago. And I felt absolutely amazing. Wish I could be on this detox forever! My brain was the best part – just felt so clear and got all the little stuff done that’s just been lying around for months…. and my fuzzy brain suddenly worked – I had ideas and was creative again, which is big for me (being an artist :o) And I lost 3 kilos – which is also big, as I’m peri-menopausal and haven’t been able to lose as much as 200 gr. over the last couple of years….
I’m pleased to feel back in charge of my health again – Linda
Awesome! I am a lacto-vegetarian for nearly 40 years, but had become slack and lazy in my eating habits, a vanilla slice here , two sugars in my tea there, a potato scallop on the run, taking a bit extra serving for dinner, an extra serve of some yummy dairy-free, eggfree home-made chocolate cake..and became a podgy, heavy, flabby size of just over 75 kilos. I am so thrilled, it was so easy , I never felt hungry, the smoothies were the yummiest….. I bought fresh vegies, and made a great variety of juices. I created and made all sorts of soups, enough to last me for a day or two, so I could come home late from work, and have a fresh bowl of tasty, satisfying, nourishing soup, ready to enjoy straight away. The help and advice from Moira and Brett, has given me the confidence that my health is on the right track now, and I am continuing on with their Ultimate Herbal Slim. I feel fantastic, energised, happy with my self, and pleased to feel back in charge of my health. I aim to lose more weight to attain my goal of approx 62 Kilos, and am very grateful that IconHerb have devised such an easy, healthy, pleasant method. I struck gold in knowing you, thank you again, Linda.
