Mild to Moderate Greens Detox

WARNING!   A detoxification should always be monitored by a health professional.

Start the day with a green food shake.  One scoop of greens with ½ a banana and a handful of blueberries and 4-6 ounces of water depending on how thick you want the drink to be.  If you like it better, you can have the greens in water without fruit.  Also try to drink up to a gallon of water a day.
I recommend Garden of Life Perfect Food for your greens.  Call all of the stores that sell health food supplements and find out who has the best price.  As an alternative I can sell you Nutriwest’s Total Greens product.

After a day, or two, or three the toxins leaving your body may affect you.  Symptoms may include headache, fatigue,  grouchiness, congestion, GI upset, cold or flu type symptoms  Don’t be alarmed, and do not take any medications!  The symptoms are merely an indicator of your body doing the work it needs to do in order to cleanse your body.

For the first 4 days you can have up to 5 shakes a day, but no other food.  On the fifth day continue with 2-5 shakes per day, and add 2 large helpings of raw green vegetables in a salad with olive oil and vinegar for a dressing.  You may also add 6 ounces of fish per day.  After one week you may substitute chicken, beef, or 2 eggs for your 6 ounces of protein a day.  All vegetables are better if they are organic, and all meats should be wild caught fish, or range fed animals that produce organic meat.

Optimally, you continue this diet for 30 days, but even if you start to introduce more food after a week you will benefit.  The closer you get to 30 days, the more benefit.

Consume no gluten, alcohol, caffeine, soda, fruit juice, dairy, peanuts, citrus, strawberries, pineapple, canned meat, bacon, sausage, shell fish, corn, tomatoes, potatoes, refined oils, butter, or margarine.

I will scan you to find what organs and glands need support.  Also, to find out if you need help removing any infectious organisms.  The scan will also show us whether you need to specifically address toxins such as pesticides, heavy metals, or homocysteine in the body. 

This is the time to allow the gut to repair.  To aid it’s repair probiotics and enzymes should be taken, along with anything else the scan shows to be beneficial.  If you use the Garden of Life Perfect Food you will be getting a good dose of probiotics. 

Fish oil is also recommended for everyone.  The ideal dose while cleansing is 2 grams a day of the EPA and DHA long chain omega-3 fatty acids contained in the fish oil.  It is also best to be on a good full spectrum nutrient source, I recommend Core Level Health Reserve from Nutriwest.

Exercise at least 30 minutes a day during the detox.
