Detox Protocols

Over the years, I have repeated the nutritional advice I'm about to give hundreds of time. I have been requested to summarize this information. I recommend this protocol because of my own personal experience with it, as well as the results witnessed with my clients. I encourage everyone to do their own research. There are as many ways to detox as there are people on the planet. If necessary, consult your nutritionist and/or the appropriate doctor or chiropractor for personal assistance.

Change Of Seasons

All over the Eastern World and Europe right now, a ritual is taking place as the seasons change. At every change of season, as advocated by Traditional Chinese and Auryvedic Medicine, people will do a 7 - 30 day long detoxification process to prepare for the change of weather. This is a preventative measure undertaken to insure good health throughout the season. How many of us experience sinus problems, colds, flu or flu-like symptoms, bronchitis, or general malaise when the weather changes?

In this country, we don't know very much about seasonal detoxification. Heck, we don't know much about detoxification, period. But, it makes sense that we incorporate this thousands-of-years old practice into our preventative healthcare regimen. Below is a summary of the standard detoxification process I give to everyone. For those who have followed it, we have seen digestive disorders clear up, severe muscular pain decreased, emotional stability become easier to maintain, some allergies all but disappear, and, of course, weight loss. Over the years, people have done all of these things or only part of them, but all have had success.

The Deb Redman Protocol

As Fall approaches, I will do the following:

Begin a regimen of cleansing herbs that come in the following products. Below is an outline of how to use the herbs.

Candistroy - 30 days
Paracleanse - 2 weeks
Complete Liver Cleanse - 2 weeks or 30 days

I squeeze two lemons into a cup of hot water every morning. I learned about the wonderful detox properties of lemon from a naturopathic doctor who recommends it to all of her patients. This stuff can be drunk all day long for the rest of your life! I complete at least four sessions of colon hydrotherapy during the 30-day detox program.

For the last couple of months, I have been testing a liquid vitamin called VIBE. This is a nutriceutical supplement that the above mentioned doctor told me about. In the next newsletter, I will share her story of how this product has worked for her son and why I am, after 16 years of not endorsing anything, agreeing to risk my integrity on this product. I have one client who agreed to test it for me and we watched his digestive challenges disappear in two weeks. If you would like more information, please email or call me.

How To Use The Herbs 1 - 14 Days

Candistroy is for a Candida cleanse. Candida is the umbrella term for the "bad" yeast that gets out of control in the digestive system. I will change my diet to eliminate sugar, yeast, wheat, dairy, and other allergens for the next thirty days. In addition, I will do at least four, if not five or more colonic hydrotherapy sessions to faciliate the elimination of the dead waste material produced by the candida cleanse. The dietary restrictions are highly important. The Candistroy product provides a list of recommended foods to remind you.

For more information about the effects of candida, candida diets and recipes, start with the
Candida Page. I like this page because it isn't trying to sell product and it is a comprehensive list of resources. Take your time going through it.

14 - 30 Days

After you have been taking the Candistroy for about 14 days, start the Paracleanse. Read the instructions. The idea here is that you have to begin killing off the food source (candida, sugar, etc.) of the parasites so that it makes them easier to kill and eliminate. There is a lot to learn about parasites. The best site I've found so far that has an easy to read explanation is http://www.appliedozone.com/parasites.html. This is a comprehensive website, but they are selling product. If you try it, let me know about your results.

Here's a bit of information to get you going from Applied Ozone:

"Parasites and worms can invade your bodies through food and water intake, through transmitting agents (like mosquito), sexual conduct or through the nose and skin. Once established, they will eat the same foods you eat or they will eat you. People with intestinal parasite infections are usually under-nourished and weak, infected with viral, fungal, or bacteria, and have various types of chemical and metal poisoning. Human intestinal parasites can be present in any disease, in any person, at any age. They are responsible for many health problems because they secrete toxins and steal the vital nutrients from our bodies. They can irritate or exaggerate other health problems you may be experiencing. Everyone is at risk and under their mercy during parasitic infections.
We create the perfect living environment for parasites when the bowel becomes ineffective in the elimination of our waste products. The build-up of fecal material on the walls of the colon is attributed to constipation and the amounts of junk food, chemicals, bad fats and sweets [candida!] we consume. We poison ourselves from our own toxic waste and the waste from these creatures (auto intoxication) when this ideal habitat is created."

If that doesn't make you want to detox, I don't know what will!

Complete Liver Cleanse

During the 14 - 30 day period, you can also begin a product called Complete Liver Cleanse. You may choose to only do a liver cleanse if you have successfully completed a candida cleanse or parasite cleanse within the last 30 days. There are many home-based protocols for doing a liver cleanse. I like the herbs in a pill because most people I know won't take the time to do it the old-fashioned way. The liver is THE most important organ in the body! If your liver cannot get rid of the toxins, excess hormones, medication build-up, and other junk produced by the body, you die. Period. Doesn't matter how healthy your heart is, how much you wiegh, how old you are, or what your overall health condition happens to be. Your liver is the foundation for all of it.

I have not found a website that is neutral about product or method or that is comprehensive enough in its explanation about liver cleansing. I recommend you do your own Google search. If you find a website you like, send it to me so that it can be referred to others.

Conclusion

I know this seems like a lot to do. Remember that it took years for your body to build-up toxins and parasite infestations. The results are worth it.
