Faqs

What happens during the Ultimate Cleanse?

Over the first few days your bowel motions become more frequent and of larger volume. In the next couple of days fecal impactions and plaque begin to clear, causing bowel motions of mis-shapen darker material. During the whole time your energy levels are maintained by the wholesome herbs you are taking along with the hard working ones. Typically you will also lose 2 to 3 kgs during a week of the detox. Usually you will also lose a desire for unhealthy foods and sweets and enjoy natural wholesome foods. These changes can be life-long for some people.

What foods am I allowed?

Most vegetables and fruits, yoghurt, vegetable soups, fruit and vegetable juices, fruit and vegetable salads, avocados, olive oil, brown rice, herbal teas, natural condiments and herbs.

Do I have to fast?

No you don’t. Fasting can leave you feeling fatigued and toxic. This occurs because your bowels are not cleared by fasting and in fact can become dry, actually causing more compaction, and more toxin accumulation. A high level of nutrition is provided with the Ultimate Cleanse diet. This ensures your energy stays high and toxin elimination is speedy. The shakes, juices and supplements keep hunger under control. The process of cleansing in a nutrient-rich environment allows rapid healing to occur at both organ and cellular levels.

Can I continue to work or travel?

Yes certainly, as long as you are not too far from a toilet. You could be passing bowel motions several times a day.

Am I allowed to have coffee, tobacco or alcohol?

The Ultimate Cleanse progam is an ideal time to quit these habits. However if severe withdrawal symptoms occur, do not overstress yourself, just cut back to the best of your ability. You will still benefit greatly from the detox.

Will I feel uncomfortable in my body?

You can experience temporary discomfort as lodged materials shift in your body, however this is normally relieved by the next bowel motion. We have prepared a weekly shopping list for all the foods contained here in our recipes. If you can not get any of these foods just get extra of what you can.

What if I feel sick on the program?

A few people have experienced nausea, or diarrhoea. If this occurs, it indicates a serious plaque or toxin build up. Stop the program immediately and start again very slowly. You are better to try the preparation diet for 2 weeks before beginning the program and then try the 25 day dose plan.

Should I alter my prescription drugs?

Keep taking any current medications and consult your doctor about any changes. Digestive drugs should not be needed after this program. See your doctor to answer any questions.

I don’t like swallowing capsules, can I open the capsules and stir into water?

Yes you can open up all of the capsules and stir into water or diluted juice or a smoothie. It does not have to be water but of course make sure that you drink adequate water throughout the day. The Cleansa and Digestaid capsules are unpleasant tasting. Having said that, many people have chosen to open all of the capsules and have drunk the powders stirred into juice, without complaint.

Can I cleanse while pregnant or nursing?

We do not recommend cleansing during pregnancy or nursing. The reason is that some of the toxins your body releases may end up in the developing child through the placenta or through the breast milk. That said, completing a cleanse shortly after your baby is weaned is a great way to reestablish healthy habits.
