Tips for Cleansing

Review these tips for some great pointers on what you can do to start some healthy habits for a vibrant cleansing lifestyle!





Do Drink the Water!
It’s really important to drink at least 64 ounces of bottled or filtered water every day.

Don’t eat refined flour, sugar, saturated fats, artificial sweeteners, white potatoes and highly processed foods.

Do eliminate caffeine and alcohol.
If you’re a heavy caffeine user, you may need to slowly cut back your intake to avoid withdrawal symptoms like headaches and fatigue. First cut your intake in half for a week. Then switch to green tea for a few days and slowly taper off it.

Don’t be hungry!
Plan on eating regular meals along with healthy snacks. Some tasty choices: Almond butter on celery sticks and hummus with carrot sticks. Click here for recipes

Do avoid: beef, pork, cold cuts, sausage, bacon, hot dogs, shellfish, soy products, peanuts, refined oils, margarine or shortening.

Do eat less dairy, wheat and soy products.
Cleansing works best when these items are kept to a minimum.

Don’t do vigorous exercise while cleansing.
Your body needs time to rest and rebuild while you are detoxifying. Gentle stretching, short walks in the fresh air and yoga are all good choices.

Do try deep breathing and meditation to increase the effectiveness of detoxification.
Meditation is the practice and process of paying attention and focusing your awareness. While it can be quite simple, it can also lead to deeper understanding of personal abilities as well as the world at large. Regular practice of meditation can reduce stress, lower blood pressure readings and cholesterol levels. It can also increase personal empathy and enhance creativity.

Do expect some changes in your bowel movements when cleansing.
They may be more frequent, larger and easier to pass. If you have increased your water or fluid intake, you should also notice an increase in your urine output. Your stools may also look different than how they normally appear. They may have a different color and consistency. However, if you develop cramping or diarrhea, simply reduce the dose of the Laxative Formula. If these problems persist, are painful or are disruptive, you should consider discontinuing its use.

Don’t tell yourself you’ll do it later.
Make this the day you quit smoking and don’t abuse drugs. In other words, eliminate the negative.

Do maintain your optimum weight.
Both overweight and yoyo weight loss create excess stress and strain on the body. It’s best to get it right and stay there.

Do explore various ways to manage stress until you find what works for you.
According to Abe Lincoln, “Most people are just about as happy as they make up their minds to be.” Create a balanced life that works. And, make up your mind to be happy.

Do buy organic fruits and vegetables if you can.
If you can’t, wash all produce with cold, drinkable water. Buy fresh veggies and fruits in season when storage and fewer pesticides are used.
