How To Detoxify

Detoxification is a unique cleansing, purifying, and rebuilding program that will help you look, feel, and perform at your best. You are becoming part of a rapidly growing segment of society that is taking responsibility for their own health and well-being. This group is digging into the most up-to-date books, and learning how their body functions, and how best to keep this precious commodity clean and disease free.

We want your detoxification to be a pleasant experience. The following information will walk you throughout the things you will need to know.

First, you will need to purchase about 21 fresh lemons or 3 to 5 boxes of Minute Maid 100% lemon juice. You will find the lemon juice in the frozen juice section. It comes in a black and yellow box containing a yellow plastic squeeze bottle. (Fresh lemons are best.)
 
Second, you will need about 1 pint of pure maple syrup, or 2 eight-ounce size bottles. You will find this in the pancake syrup, or health food section at your local grocery store. We are not talking about pancake syrup, like Mrs. Butterworths's, etc., which is a sugar base syrup and something we want to avoid during detox. You will find a 'grade' on the label of the pure maple syrup. Grade C is preferable, but Grades A or B may be used.
 
Third, you will need at least 2 gallons of distilled water for the mixture, and it is recommended to purchase plenty of additional distilled water for drinking throughout each day.
 
Fourth, purchase a couple of fresh fruit items (apple or banana) to have available.
 
Fifth, you will need a 2-½ quart pitcher of container to hold the juice mixture.

Possible Side Effects;
Headaches and nausea are possible side effects of detoxification.
There are three reasons why you may possibly have a headache, or feel nauseous. (1) Your blood sugar level has dropped, and adding one or two tablespoons of pure maple syrup in another glass of mixture, or glass of water, solves that problem. (2) You are not eliminating fluids at a fast enough pace. Make sure you are drinking the lemon mixture and distilled water on a very regular schedule. (3) Your toxins are being released faster than your body can handle. This is where you may need some fruit to slow down the cleanse. Eat an apple or a banana, and take a short nap if possible.

In the unusual event that you have a violent headache, or are extremely nauseous, use only the Wheat Bran and Psyllium and the Intesta-Cleanse herbs and discontinue the Detox, herbs, eat some fruit, and continue drinking the lemon mixture, or some other unsweetened fruit juice. If you use another kind of juice; try diluting it with distilled water. Anyone with an ulcer may wish to use another diluted unsweetened fruit juice.

People with severe medical problems have detoxified successfully by taking the herbs and lemon juice mixture or other fruit juice while on their regual diet and/or medication. Your physician can best advise you how you can adjust your diet and your medication so you can cleanse safely. Each time you detoxify, it will become easier as your body becomes cleaner.

During these three days, you may not have a bowel movement. A normal healthy colon has a peristaltic action, like an accordion, where the muscles move the intestinal waste along to be eliminated. When this is working properly, it will continue functioning during Detox. However, for many today, this peristaltic action has diminished, and that leaves the colon dependent on more food waste to force through what it is already holding. When this is happening, and you are eating only a liquid diet, you no longer have the bulk to push through what is sitting in your colon. This is regrettable, and indicates that you need to put some thought and concern into restoring your colon to health. As soon as you eat solid food again, it will commence pushing the rest through. Healthy eating and a series of detoxifications should improve this condition.

It is just as important to your body to come off detoxification correctly as it is to detoxify. Your body is in a cleansing mode and will continue until clogging foods are reintroduced. Continue taking the herbs until they are gone. Your body is now clean and will no longer stand abuse. If you want to go back to your old lifestyle, do it slowly. You may become ill after eating a pizza. A candy bar will give you a headache. All these represent foods that are very concentrated and your clean body simply cannot tolerate the abuse. A clean body is sensitive to toxins.

If you want to start a new lifestyle,
now is the perfect time to begin.
 

UNDERSTANDING THE SYMPTOMS OF DETOXIFICATION

It is vital that you understand and properly interpret the symptoms and changes that may occur when beginning a wellness and nutritional program. This refers to using foods and supplements of a higher quality to replace the lower quality foods and supplements that have been a part of you diet.

The closer a food comes to the natural state in which it grows, the higher is its quality. The amino acids, minerals, vitamins, trace elements, carbohydrates, and "vitality" are present and synergistic. This "vitality" is capable of reproducing healthy tissue. The body has the ability to repair itself if it receives the necessary rest and nutrition it needs.

The quality of a wellness program is also improved by omitting toxic substances such as coffee, tea, sugar, soda pop, chocolate, alcohol, salt, black pepper, etc. When the use of stimulants is stopped, withdrawal registers in the mind as a decrease in energy. This period lasts about seven days and is followed by an increase in strength, vitality, relaxation, and greater well-being. During this healing phase, the body's energy aids the internal organs to begin reconstructuction. Weakness felt during this time is not true weakness, but rather the prioritization of energy to the repair of vital internal organs. It is important not to waste energy but to rest and sleep more. This is a crucial period, and if you use stimulants of any kind, you will abort the healing and detoxification processes of your body. It is important to have patience and wait it out. When this healing period is over you will have increased strength, which will far exceed the way you felt before you began the program.

You may wonder, "Why do I feel like I'm getting worse if I'm detoxifying?"


You must understand that your body must go through cleansing and detoxification. It is throwing out poisons using the energy it has saved from the hard-to digest meals you discontinued. Removing these toxins can prevent you from developing degenerative diseases. During this detoxification, cold, fever or flu symptoms may occur. This is you body's natural way of cleansing. You must understand that this phenomenon is positive even though it is unpleasant at the moment.

Cooperate with your body by not using drugs to stop the cleansing process. They may make you feel better but they do it by driving the toxins back into the tissues. Get some rest instead and have no fear.

Your body is efficiently healing itself. You may experience some unpleasant symptoms at first; such as headaches in the beginning and your skin may break out. There is commonly a period of bowel sluggishness or diarrhea and these are periods when you may feel fatigued. You may also experience anxiety, irritability or mental depression. Your body needs a lot of rest at this time, so get as much rest as you can. The majority of people find these reactions tolerable, so just hang in there and be patient.

When there is a pile-up of waste matter in the body, the immune system may decide that it is time to clean up. It will provoke a cold or some other mucus discharge to flush out the toxins, calling in an army of white blood cells to help dispose of the stuff. Cleanup reactions are adjustments by the body to keep itself whole and functioning. This cleansing action is often referred to as a healing crisis.

A great deal of toxins can be pulled out of the body's tissues and put back into the circulation in order to be eliminated. During this process, uncomfortable symptoms may occur, such as: fatigue, aches and pains, skin discharges, unusual sweating and body odors, frequent urination, diarrhea or constipation, fever or a feeling of coldness, and mental depression or irritability, among others.

The healing crisis generally lasts from a few hours to a few days, sometimes longer. The healthier one's condition, the fewer symptoms there will be. The more the body has to clean up, the harder and longer will be the cleansing side effects. They will also be more pronounce if the change in diet is abrupt, and less so if it is gradual.

A healing crisis comes right after a person is feeling their best, usually following a positive change in their lifestyle; a better diet, a high-quality food supplement, giving up a toxic vice such as alcohol or tobacco, or beginning a wellness program. There is a feeling of well being at the core during the healing crisis. Deep down inside it feels OK, while a sickness feels like something is definitely wrong. Each healing crisis is followed by increased vitality and a greater feeling of well-being.

It is difficult for people, used to having symptoms eradicated with medications, to understand a process that removes toxins rather than covers symptoms, and one that may make them feel worse for a while in the process. Most people's experiences with conventional medicine do not prepare them to understand the healing crisis. The focus of Western medicine first and foremost is to "cure" the disease by relieving the symptoms and thereby removing the discomfort. The medications used for this practice do so by aborting the cleansing function of the body and only drive the toxins deeper into the tissues. In the effort to relieve the patient's symptoms the real causes of the patient's condition are overlooked. A healing crisis helps one obtain greater health by removing toxins, which is opposite to the conventional medical philosophy. The phenomenon of the healing crisis and detoxification in general are not topics included in the standard medical texts or anywhere else in the education of most doctors.

Minor ailments are commonly driven deeper into the body through the use of drug therapy, which act to suppress symptoms and weakens the body's defense mechanisms. For instance, a cortisone ointment used for a skin condition may clear up the symptoms, but later a more serious problem may occur, such as asthma. In turn, bronchodilators may control the asthma but may cause depression. The aching body, headaches, nausea, irritability, fatigue, and other flu-type symptoms often reported during the healing crisis are primary effects of detoxification. The human body has a grat capacity to store away toxins. The healing process takes these substances out of storage and into circulation to be eliminated. It is on their way to being eliminated that these toxins cause the dramatic symptoms so often felt by many.

During cleansing many people may experience the recurrence of old ailments, some of which may not have been evident since childhood. For example, while cleansing, the person with the skin problem might have some depression, followed later by asthmatic episodes. The skin condition may reoccur later. To dredge a lake and make it clear and deep, you must remove layers of sediment. During this process, the bottom of the lake is stirred up, and the water becomes cloudier than it was when you began.

The onset of symptoms during a healing crisis are usually rapid. The worst of the symptoms may last as little as a few hours or as long as three to four days. A common pattern is for a person to reach plateau, followed by a healing crisis, again building up to a plateau, and so on. It takes experience to know how to tell the difference between a healing crisis and a new disease. If a person has made an improvement in diet, started a fast, begun a wellness program, stopped smoking, drinking, or taking drugs, you can suspect that a healing crisis may be responsible for their symptoms.

Every person familiar with healing crisis often finds it difficult to comprehend the meaning of his or her symptoms. If you are experiencing a healing crisis, there are a number of things you can do for yourself. The goal is to help the body go through this crisis without unbearable suffering, but also without interfering with the healing that is taking place.

The body is under much stress during detoxification, and sufficient rest is vital. Also, the diet following detoxification should not place demands on the body's energy levels. Foods heavy in protein or fat require great amounts of energy to be digested and must be avoided. Meals should be kept simple, light, easily digestible, and nutritious. Plenty of pure water, whole grains, and fresh fruits and vegetables are recommended. Avoid foods containing preservatives, dyes, caffeine, sugar, as well as the use of tap water for drinking.

The skin is an important organ of elimination, and many toxins will leave the body more readily if the skin is in proper condition. To help the detoxification process, gently brush the entire surface of the skin with a natural-bristle brush. Stroke from the extremities inward to the lever, and repeat every day. Skin brushing helps to stimulate the lymphatic system and blood flow. To further aid elimination through the skin, soak in a warm bath with Epsom Salts and baking soda, two cups of each.

This healing phenomenon is not a regular part of the curriculum or understanding of conventional medicine. Medicine usually equates increased health with reduced symptoms. Many patients visiting an MD expect that any successful treatment will immediately eliminate all symptoms. The greatest challenge of detoxification is to not become discouraged, but rather to learn from the experience. With this perceptive, one can learn how their health has evolved throughout their lifetime.

Deep Breathing is perhaps the most important aid in detoxification. One must breathe rapidly and deeply for at least sixty seconds every hour, forever. This effectively oxygenates the blood at the cellular level.

Your body's blood system is the primary component of your biochemistry. Like the oil in the engine of an automobile, it must be constantly cleansed in order to achieve optimum performance. Once your blood system is unbalanced due to pollutants and toxins absorbed, ingested, or inhaled from the environment, it is necessary to detoxify this river of life in order for the blood to continue to function efficiently.

Psyllium Offers New Source Of Fiber
by Amy Belleau

Soluble fiber (found in dried beans and fruits, as well as in Psyllium) may reduce cholesterol levels, while insoluble fiber (found in wheat bran, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables) appears to decrease the risk of colon cancer and gastrointestinal diseases, says Jayne Hurley, RD, nutritionist at the Center for Science in the Public Interest in Washington, DC.

Both kinds of fiber are important. Some experts worry that too many people rely on a single food - such as oat bran - to satisfy their needs. "It's best to vary your diet and include foods with different kinds of fibers," says Susan Ricahrme, MD, assistant professor of family medicine at Louisiana State University School of Medicine in Baton Rouge. The National Cancer Institute recommends eating 20 to 35 grams of fiber - which should include both soluble and insoluble types - every day. However, eating too much fiber too suddenly can result in bloating and gas. To avoid these problems, Dr. Richarme recommends increasing your fiber intake gradually.
