 You can supplement your general detoxification with more targeted cleanses which will employ herbs, essential oils and specific fresh juices.
Parasite Cleanse.
Malfunctioning colon becomes the perfect breeding ground for parasites. Recent medical studies have estimated that 85% of the North American adult population is infected with at least one form of parasite. Humans can actually play host to over 100 different kinds of parasites, ranging from microscopic ones to tape worms that can grow to be several feet long. Parasites are most frequently found in the colon but can also migrate to other parts of the body, including the liver, lungs, muscles, joints, skin, blood, and even the brain. The most common sources of infection with parasites are insufficiently cooked meat and fish, unwashed fruits and vegetables, travel to third world countries, contaminated water, mosquitoes and pets. Some of the most frequent signs of parasites in humans are:
| Constantly bloated abdomen |
Cravings for sweets |
Moodiness |
| Inability to lose weight |
Depression |
Chronic fatigue |
| Dark circles under eyes |
Anemia |
PMS |
| Diarrhea or chronic constipation |
Bad breath |
Foul body odor |
| Persistent acne/skin eruptions |
Food allergies |
Sinus congestion |
| Teeth grinding |
Constant abdominal discomfort |
Digestive problems |
| Insomnia (especially waking between 2 and 3 am) |
Anal itching |
Water retention |
Please note that although the symptoms can signal the presence of parasites, they can also be signs of other illnesses.
Parasites have a highly detrimental effect on our health:
1. They weaken the immune system, making us more vulnerable to infections.
2. They feed on the most nutritious part of our diet.
3. They irritate the tissues of the body inducing an inflammatory reaction.
4. They produce toxic waste products (endotoxins).
5. They perforate and damage the intestinal lining.
6. They can cause obstruction especially in the intestine and bile ducts.
Our parasite cleanse is an addition to colon cleansing and uses herbal and dietary support. Successful parasite cleanse takes at least 8 weeks, as it needs to address all stages of parasite development. You may start this program with us and continue with provided supplements and instructions at home.
Liver and Kidney detox.
The liver plays the key role in converting toxins into nontoxic substances, which are then eliminated by kidneys. Both the liver and the kidneys need to function properly to keep the body free of poisonous substances. Since the liver has such an important role in protecting our health, when it becomes overburdened with toxins, many health problems can arise. The liver is responsible for such vital functions as: regulating blood sugar, energy production as well as hormone production and regulation. A wide range of factors can inhibit liver enzymes from doing their jobs. Such factors include food additives, preservatives and colorings, birth control pills, all prescription and over-the-counter medications, environmental toxins and street drugs. Once the liver become overburden with toxic materials, illness becomes inevitable. Experts believe that there is a definite link between the ability of the liver to detoxify and Parkinson's disease, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis.
Our program includes special fresh juices, supplements of herbs, essential oils, minerals and vitamins.
Blood and Lymphatic System Detoxification.
The concept of purifying the blood is ancient, but it's important today as it ever was. The bloodstream, working in conjunction with the liver and kidneys, plays a vital role in cleansing the body of toxins and disease causing agents.
Toxins carried by the blood to the cells are often responsible for cellular damage, leading to diseased organs and tissues.
Lymph is a fluid similar in composition to blood plasma. It has three main functions: return excess fluid from tissues to the blood, absorb fat and fat-soluble vitamins from the digestive system, and defend the body against invading microorganisms and disease.
Our Blood and Lymph Detoxification program will employ special purifying fresh juices, herbal supplements.
