CLEANSE DIET |
||
Three step program: Step 1: Initial Cleanse (day 1-3) Eliminate potentially allergenic foods while you slowly increase your intake of the nutritional and detoxification support products specifically for you. Step2: Detoxification (day 3-17) Follow the diet guidelines below with the full dosages of your nutritional and detoxification products. Step 3: Reintroduction (days 17 and on) Slowly reintroduce foods (begin with easiest to digest foods adding one every other day) and slowly decrease the intake of your cleansing products.
Diet Guidelines: At least one Third of Your Food Should Be Uncooked: there are valuable and sensitive micronutrients that are damaged when you heat foods. Cooking and processing food can destroy these micronutrients by altering their shape and chemical composition. Regular vegetable juicing will easily help you reach this goal of 1/3 raw food in your diet. Eat Plenty of Vegetables: All vegetables promote health. Eat them raw if possible, otherwise lightly steamed. Salads are a good start but avoid iceberg lettuce as it has minimal nutritional value compared to red leaf, green leaf, romaine and spinach, which are better options. Other good vegetables include: endive, escarole, fennel, celery, cucumbers, green and red cabbage, broccoli, Chinese cabbage, bok choy, cauliflower, asparagus, zucchini, brussel sprouts, kale, kohlrabi, onions, and parsley are all good choices. Eat Organic: Not only do organic produce taste better, it also has been shown to have 3-5 times greater nutritional value than conventionally grown food. Variety: Eating many different foods provides the body with an abundance of phyto-nutrients, vitamins and minerals. It also prevents sensitization to a single food, which can lead to allergies. Salads: Salads are very important and are considered to be one of the healthiest meals. It is suggested to eat a large organic salad at least once a day and preferably with every meal. The best types of vegetables to use are mixed spring lettuces, mixed with finely grated raw vegetables. Make salad dressing from cold pressed oils such as flax seed, sesame or olive oils.
