Purification is merely the internal cleansing and detoxification of your body. Think of it as "spring cleaning" for your insides.


Why do I need purification?

Purification, also known as detoxification, can help you remove natural toxins from your body and help maintain a healthy weight. We are exposed to external toxins everyday, including pollutants, pesticides, and chemicals. Internally our bodies produce waste byproducts as a result of normal metabolic function. Although your body is designed to rid itself of these toxins naturally, it can become overburdened. Purification offers your body additional support to expel natural toxins and minimize your weight, which is important to maintaining your health and vitality.

Toxins can contribute to a wide range of conditions:
     Stuffy head
     Fatigue or difficulty sleeping
     Digestion and other gastrointestinal problems
     Food cravings and weight gain
     Reduced mental clarity
     Low libido


How do I determine my toxic load?
Your toxic load is the amount of toxins that your body needs to process. By answering the following questions, you may gain some insight as to your current toxic load.


 Yes  No     Do you or have you eaten processed foods?

Yes  No     Do you eat non-organic fruits and vegetables?

Yes  No     Do you eat meat and poultry that are not free range?

Yes  No     Do you consume genetically altered food?

Yes  No     Do you or have you ever used artificial sweeteners?

Yes  No     Do you drink soda?

Yes  No     Do the foods you eat have preservatives, additives, dyes or sweeteners added?

Yes  No     Do you eat fast foods and/or eat out regularly?

Yes  No     Do you charbroil or grill foods?

Yes  No     Do you drink coffee regularly?

Yes  No     Do you drink alcohol?

Yes  No     Do you drink tap water?

If the majority of your answers are "yes", then it is likely that your diet contributes significantly to your toxic load. Beyond diet, many external toxins, such as perfumes, cleaners, and pollution, add to your load. Your health care professional can help you assess your toxic load.
