21 Day Purification Update-Week 1

It has been a week since we began the 21 Day Purification Program.  So far, so good!  Actually, in my experience the first 3 days of the program are usually the most challenging.  After that you kind of get into a groove and the routine is easy.  3 of our group have shed significant extra pounds already.  One of our members had a tough start because of fighting off flu symptoms.  We are now ready for week two.  This week we will begin introducing small portions of animal protein back into our diet.  I think we are all looking forward to that.  I have not come across many people who can maintain a vegetarian diet and remain healthy very long which may be contrary to what you might assume.  We have finished with the cleansing supplement that triggered the release of stored toxins and waste from fat cells.  Now we begin a whole food supplement support of the detoxifications systems- especially the liver, kidneys, and intestines.  We will do this with whole food concentrates containing organic cruciferous vegetables and continuing to eat a lot of vegetables and fruits.  This week we also begin daily exercising to promote sweating and increased breathing. 

A few benefits we have noted already include cessation of craving sweets and carbohydrates, an increase in energy level, sleeping better, and I have found my joints to be less stiff and I can stretch further without restriction and pain (like I could when I was younger).  I am anticipating our energy levels will noticeably improve as this is what I have experienced before when undergoing this program.

PS. We have all enjoyed new culinary delights.  Who knew vegetables could be SO good!

 

Time To Get With The Program

As many of you know we recommend a health renewing 21 Day Purification Program in our office.  Many of you have undergone the experience.  I think it might be of interest to those of you who have not yet done a program and those who have that I am doing the Program again for the 4^th time beginning today.  Actually, I am beginning the Program along with my youngest son, his new bride, and my wife, so there are four of us undergoing this process.  Every time I do the Program it is a unique experience.  It will be a different dynamic this time doing the program with a group of four.  With all the support we should have great results.

The 21 Day Purification Program is designed to be a health renewal for the body.  Especially after the holidays, our bodies are often overwhelmed and stressed with the excesses that come from over eating and eating highly processed foods.  The extra calories have been converted into fat and is now stored in fat cells increasing body weight and size.  The excess “toxic stuff and waste” from eating processed foods (coloring, preservatives, flavor enhancers, etc) that are not really food at all has been dealt with by the body’s detoxification systems.  The body is equipped to eliminate these toxic wastes and does.   However, the detoxification systems can be overwhelmed when there has been too much dietary excess.  That means the waste and toxins that are not immediately eliminated wind up being stored in fat cells, also.  Besides adding weight to fat cells and causing a feeling of general sluggishness this also disrupts normal cell functions and interferes with needed biological activities vital for good health.  This phenomenon is the cause of many symptoms people suffer from including head-ache, depression, allergies, mind-fog, indigestion, fatigue, and constipation.  Ironically, a person will then take a drug to counter the symptom which results in adding more toxicity into the already over-burdened body systems.  It is much healthier to restore normal health in the body through purification than medicating the symptoms of being over burdened with waste and toxins.

Today all four of us are weighed in so we can keep track of our weight-loss goals and have begun the Program regimen. We will be eating only fresh fruit, vegetables, and avoiding certain other foods.   A key ingredient to this Program is a special shake drink to assist the body during the purification process and taking specific supplements to trigger the release of stored wastes and toxins.  This program differs from others in that it not only stimulates cleansing of wastes and toxins but it also supports and rebuilds the body’s detoxification systems.  When you have completed the Program you are cleansed and renewed.  Other detox programs are harsh and leave the body depleted. 

I hope to send an update to you a few times during the next 21 days to let you know how things are coming along.  If you have any questions about the Program please feel free to call me at 208-743-4567, or email me at dr.glenn@wholebasics.com.

Yours in health,

Dr. Glenn
