There are many books on cleansing and even more products on the market claiming to offer your body a cleanse. Our bodies were designed to eliminate toxins naturally. We do this by breathing, sweating, urinating and eliminating our bowels. When we are exposed to a great amount of toxins, chemicals and over the counter drugs that we have available now our bodies may have trouble keeping up. Some of our organs like the liver and kidneys are designed to help filter out toxins, but when they become saturated, toxins pour into our system and eventually cause disease and sickness. I experience this firsthand last week when I was exposed to fresh stain and varnish in a home that was closed up and had no ventilation. I could tell I would be hit hard as my body became fatigued and nauseous with a headache and backache quickly following. I know from past experience that this is one way my body reacts to chemical exposure. I was in bed by 6:30PM.
I decided to start using some of the 5-day cleansing products. The following morning upon waking I took a Digest & Cleanse capsule. 30 minutes later I began drinking 2 ounces of Ningxia Red. I had a Balance Complete shake with peppermint in it for breakfast, and an apple for a snack. I repeated the morning intake of Digest & Cleanse, more Ningxia Red and a Balance Complete shake with lemon in it for lunch. At this point I began to feel more energy and no more nausea. I finished the day with a light dinner. Just a half a day with the 5-Day Nutritive Cleanse products offered me some release of toxins. A week later I did the recommended 5-day cleansing to get the best benefit from the cleansing program.
Cleansing for specific areas of the body can give organs a rest from processed foods and contaminants and ultimately help body systems operate more efficiently. If a cleanse is done incorrectly it could release toxins into the system too quickly causing unpleasant symptoms. Some cleansing regimens instruct you to fast for days and flush the colon. This is not only ineffective, but can be dangerous as flushing the colon can disrupt critical electrolytes in the digestive tract. Electrolytes balance many body systems including the heart. Young Living has formulated a gentle cleanse that is not extreme and provides essential nutrients for the body.
The 5-Day Nutritive Cleanse consists of Ningxia Red, Digest & Cleanse capsules and Balance Complete. These three products combined with a menu of fresh fruits, vegetables and nuts offers an energizing break from your day to day food intake. Ningxia Red offers whole fruit nutrition plus fiber including the nutrient packed Ningxia Wolfberry. Digest and Cleanse capsules rid the intestines of bad bacteria while soothing the tract with essential oils of peppermint, lemon, caraway, ginger root, fennel and anise seed oil. Balance Complete is a meal replacement loaded with nutrition and fiber from the Ningxia Wolfberry, barley grass juice, aloe vera, cinnamon bark and orange oils. It also contains many other vitamins and nutrients to support the body during a cleanse. Mix Balance Complete with 8 ounces of water to make a vanilla flavored shake. I like to make mine with either a drop of peppermint essential oil or lemon essential oil for a flavor boost.
If you are not sure where or how to begin with a cleanse, Young Living’s 5-Day Nutritive Cleanse is a gentle way to start. The three products in this cleanse are combined to detoxify, nourish and support your body. Some people cleanse up to 4 times a year, around the change of the seasons. Before embarking on any cleansing regimen, make sure to consult your doctor. And always make sure you are eliminating from the bowels 2-3 times a day before cleansing- using Sulfurzyme to regulate your system. Cleansing takes some planning and foresight, but the efforts are worth it with renewed energy and focus as you eliminate toxins.
