Hello,

Recently, I have gained 30 pounds and want to get back to "normal" weight. I wanted to start by detoxifying my body. Does any one know of good detox product or method? Any suggestions on good diet that will help me achieve my goal that isn't too restrictive? Any suggestions will help. TIA!

I am currently undergoing detox at Jubilee Wellness Center in Keller ###-###-####. Dr. Parker is a chiropractor and he also does muscle testing and accupuncture. He finds out what kind of toxins you have and how they're affecting you and then the best way to treat them. For example, I have heavy metal toxicity and am being treated with an ionic foot bath, infrared sauna, supplements, etc. He can also find out what kinds of foods you are sensitive to and then actually desensitize your body to those things. This is probably the coolest thing I've ever done and am so excited about finally getting healthy from the inside out!

Hi P.,
I had my son in Jan, '06.
In the spring of this year, I had the same goal, and registered for a one month cleasing program with Kevin Gregg, doctor of chiropractic, an ayurvedic practitioner, and classically trained homeopath.
It was a group program-- we met over four Saturdays, with lots of education and support.
I lost the last remaining weight I couldn't seem to shake (about 20 lbs.).
However, I wouldn't recommend doing this if you're in it for a quick fix. The workshop is wholistic in its approach-- yogic in philosophy and addressing healthy habits for your entire lifestyle.
He has another workshop starting Sept. 15.
If you're interested, you can reach Dr. Gregg at ____@____.com any means, best of success to you!

I did a cleanse about 2 months ago. It was $250 for an 11 day program through Isagenix. (Isagenix.com) I lost 9 lbs. in 11 days. The problem is the cost. I found a program along the same lines that I am going to try called the Poor Man's Cleanse. It's alot cheaper because you can get everything you need at the grocery store and GNC. If you send me your email address, I will email it to you. Hope it helps. I'm going to start it on Tuesday.

I have book called "Can We Live 150 Years?" by Dr. Mikhail Tombak

I did a search for a link above..I've never done any of them, but it is a very interesting read (a bit strange if you don't have an open mind to some of it) :) I like reading those books, however, and he seems to have some valid points. Lots to think about....he has several detox recipes you can do yourself if you are willing to do it. Some of it sounds strage, bt definetly worth a try...even if not, it's an interesting book to read with lots of other health tips..Worth the read..HTH

I HIGHLY recommend the Isagenix health and Wellness cleansing program. I had many of the same issues as you. No energy, tired, headaches, hard time sleeping at night and of course the extra 50 pounds. I have never felt better than I do now.
www.kristinestell.isagenix.com or you can email or even call and I can tell you more about it.
It also has a 30 day money back guarantee, that's what encouraged me to do it. And also there are no harmful products in Isagenix.

I know someone else said it was expensive, but if you break it down it's only $3.66 a meal and you can't even get a meal deal at Wendy's for that.
You can mix up your own products, but it takes so much more work and I want to know that I have the best, not whatever the Health food store has. Also I don't always know what all the ingred. really are that are on the label, and I want only what's good for me.

Giving your body proper nutrients everyday is a natural detox, as healthy cells replace old cells. When you give the body good nutrients, the body flushes out the bad. A good supplement taken everyday can enhance overall health and diminish free-radicals which damage the cells in the first place. My family takes a premium vitamin supplement rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants for long-term health and wellness, not just for a specific period of time.

Oprah had Dr. Oz on today. They discussed detox diets with some interesting results. Even Dr. Oz said that he was surprised. Their is no effect from detox any different from eating a healthy balanced diet. In the study they even went as far as to analize EVERY bit of waste (yep, all the poop and pee) from the test subjects. I looked into detoxing myself a few years ago. The crusie lines always push it too. It was interesting to see their results.

My husband has a detox program that helps you lose weight and rids your body of all of the toxins. It is a great program as I have done it myself prior to pregnancy. I cannot do it again until I stop nursing or I would. It isn't cheap but the products and the results are worth it. You can read more about it at www.mydetoxdiet.com. It also will eliminate sugar/carb cravings as well- if you stick to the plan.

Good Luck
