CLEANSING/AUTOINTOXICATION
We clean our face everyday, but people seldom think about whether or not they need to
clean their intestines. Our intestinal tract is like plumbing system in a house, with the
small intestines comparable to sewage pipes and the colon comparable to the septic
tank. When fat and debris are poured down the drain every day, the pipes will become
clogged. Septic tanks need to be pumped out occasionally. Otherwise, too much waste
will accumulate and back up into the house. The same thing will happen to your
intestines. When you pour greasy food, excessive dairy products, meats and other foods
with toxic substances down your intestinal tract every day, food residues build up. Food
residues, combines with mucous secreted by mucous membranes in the colon, form
layers of gluey feces, which will build up in pockets and may pile up along the entire
length of the colon and part of the small intestines, year after year. Constipation
becomes a norm. People have been known to carry 40-50 pounds of old, dried up fecal
matter in their intestines. Old feces do not pass from the body with ordinary bowel
movements. They need special treatment to dissolve the glue which binds them to the
intestinal wall. If you let these decayed food residues accumulate in your intestines, you
will suffer from AUTOINTOXICATION (self – poisoning), which is a disorder resulting
from absorption of the waste products of metabolism, decomposed matter from the
intestine, or the products of dead and infected tissue as in gangrene. The toxins can be
carried by the blood stream to all parts of the body and end up in every cell, leading to
various forms of illness.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, you may be experiencing
autointoxication, and therefore you might want to consider some type of internal
cleansing program:
- allergy or intolerance to certain foods
- bad breath and foul-smelling gas and stools
- constipation, diarrhea, sluggish elimination, irregular bowel movements
- frequent congestion, colds, viruses
- flatulence or gas and frequent intestinal disorders
- general aches and pains that migrate from one place to another
- intolerance to fatty foods
- low energy; loss of vitality for no apparent reason
- lower back pain
- lowered resistance to infections
- needing to sleep a long time
- pain in your liver or gall bladder
- premenstrual syndrome, breast soreness, vaginal infections
- skin problems, rashes, boils, pimples, etc
If you have severe symptoms or any serous disorders, seek the attention of a competent
health care provider. The above list only meant to indicate some of the symptoms of
autointoxication. Anyone who has been on a Standard American Diet for more than two years would benefit from periodic cleansing, especially if you live in an urban area.
It’s Time for SPRING CLEANING with our
21 Day Herbal Cleansing Program
Cheryl Wisdom, MS, RN
*”Throw open the windows, air out that mattress, shake out those rugs, it’s Spring
Cleaning Time!! We all enjoy the first fine days of spring. You feel rejuvenated
after a long winter. But don’t just Spring Clean your house. Spring Clean yourself!
Why? I’m going to let our Medical Advisory Board answer that. We just got a flyer
from Herbalife about this:
“Unhealthy nutritional habits and environmental factors may reduce your
elimination process and toxic accumulation can occur. Because the colon is the
digestive system’s key organ of elimination, when it is impaired it can affect
proper colonic functioning.”
According to Balch and Balch (Prescription for Nutritional Healing, 3rd ed., 2000):
“retained debris in the colon leads to the absorption of toxins, resulting in
systemic intoxication (poisoning). Symptoms of this condition can include mental
confusion, depression, irritability, fatigue, gastrointestinal irregularities, and even
allergic reactions such as hives, sneezing, and coughing. Many nutritionists and
researchers believe that this toxicity can eventually lead to more serious
disorders. Colon cleansing can rid the colon of debris, and help prevent and treat
a variety of health problems.”
Herbalife’s 21 Day Herbal Cleansing Program is a two-product system designed
to detoxify and maintain colon health. The PM Cleansing Formula supports the
body’s ability to remove health-robbing toxins from every cell in your body. In
addition, it promotes the body’s regular, natural self-cleansing action. One of the
first questions I usually get is, “Will it give me diarrhea?” No. Right before bed,
you take one to four tablets, depending on how your system normally works. By
morning you experience a nice, cleansing bowel movement. When taking the
appropriate number of tablets, you will not have loose stool, just good results
from your cleanse. Continue to take the appropriate number of tablets for your
system either until 21 days are up or you run out of tablets.
Every morning you take two tablets of the AM Replenishing Formula. This
product is a special combination of wholesome ingredients such as “friendly
bacteria” and health enhancing “probiotic factors” along with an exclusive blend
of fiber and fructooligosaccharides that help soothe, rebuild and revitalize the
colon environment.
Fruit-toe-what? Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are considered “pre-biotics.”
Prevention Magazine (May 1999) did an article on FOS which tells us they are a
type of carbohydrate that reaches your colon undigested to “feed healthpromoting
bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria.” Don’t worry
about the names, just know that if you have lots of “good bacteria” they can fight
off and prevent the build up of any bad bacteria such as salmonella.
Prebiotics are known for their ability to relieve constipation, prevent diarrhea, and
reduce some food sensitivities such as lactose intolerance. Research is currently
underway investigating the effects of prebiotics on strengthening the immune
system, inhibiting the effects of food borne illness, preventing colon cancer and
reducing cholesterol. Good stuff!
While cleansing, it’s always a good idea to boost your antioxidant support with
Herbalife’s Schizandra Plus, RoseOx and Mega Garlic Plus products to augment
the cleansing process. Use our 21 Day Herbal Cleansing Program two to three
times a year and always after you’ve used a prescription antibiotic.”
