CLEANSES
Wednesday, January 11, 2023 11:35 AM
You’ve heard the term spring cleaning where you do a thorough cleaning of your whole house after a long, bundled up winter. People start opening their windows to air out the place, wipe down walls, clean windows, floors, and rugs to get a fresh start before the summer. Well, our bodies do need a seasonal cleaning as well. Our bodies do a sort of a mini cleanse every night while you are sleeping but our modern way of life tends to add toxins, faster than they can be eliminated therefore we recommend doing a cleanse at least twice a year and if you have a health issue you are trying to handle, quarterly might be a really good idea. It gives your body a chance to detox and get rid of toxins that have been accumulating. This is the reason why our ancestors did regular fasting.
We recommend the Standard Process Detox Balance Program. It provides the key nutrients and phytonutrients during all three phases of detoxification that unlock, neutralize, and eliminate toxins. There is a 28 day or 10-day protocol which features a tasty, all-in-one detox shake supported by sample meals.
Toxins can contribute to:
• Fatigue or difficulty sleeping
• Indigestion and other temporary gastrointestinal upset
• Food cravings and weight gain
• Reduced mental clarity
• Low libido
• Skin issues
• Joint discomfort
Toxins are the preservatives and additives in food, certain household cleaning products, cigarette smoke, dyes and paints, certain personal care products, pesticides & insecticides, heavy metals.
The SP Detox Balance program provides the body with additional nutritional support it may need to metabolize and expel toxins safely during each of the three phases of metabolic detoxification.
Phase 1: Unlock
The body transforms fat-soluble toxins to an “unlocked” state that is more water-soluble, and in many cases, more toxic than its original form.
Phase 2: Neutralize
The highly toxic substances produced in Phase 1 convert to non-toxic molecules and become even more water-soluble.
Phase 3: Eliminate
Water-soluble toxins leave cells, and the body eliminates them.
