Detox Guide

Welcome!
Congratulations on taking this step toward greater health with the Comprehensive Detox Kit.
Your healthcare provider has recommended this easy-to-follow program to assist you in eating
cleaner, eliminating more efficiently, and feeling more vibrant and energetic over the course of
14 days.

Within this Detox Guide, you will find all the information you need to create an eating plan that
will give your body a rest from exposure to common potential allergens in the typical Western
diet, as well as alcohol, caffeine, and refined sugars. While it may be challenging to create new
routines at first, the plan is flexible to your preferences and allows you to satisfy your hunger
without limiting calories.

The Comprehensive Detox Kit provides hypo-allergenic protein that supplies the amino acids
needed to build liver enzymes, botanicals and nutrients specifically selected to support your
body’s own detoxification process, and fiber to support the elimination of toxins from the body.*

While everyone has different experiences


on the program, you may notice increased
energy and clearer thinking; weight and fat
loss; healthier digestion and elimination;
clearer skin; more restful sleep and positive
mood.*

Post-Detox
Congratulations on completing the 14-day detox! With the end of the detox you may begin to
re-introduce the “Foods to Avoid” back into your diet. Take it slow and introduce one food every
2 to 3 days so you can assess whether you have a reaction and determine which foods make you
feel your best.

Going forward, you should carry on the healthy eating habits you have cultivated over the past 14
days, focusing on whole foods with ample vegetables. You should also continue to move daily
and regularly practice stress management strategies, such as meditation or breathing exercises.

The Comprehensive Detox Kit is gentle


enough to use periodically when you would
like to re-focus attention on eating clean
and promoting a healthy lifestyle. Some
practitioners recommend following the detox
protocol with each new year or biannually with
the change of seasons. If you would like to
continue with a gentle daily detox regimen,
speak with your healthcare provider about
using Vital Clear® or DeTox Formula, and the benefits of including synergistic supplements,
such as our probiotic Acidophilus/Bifidobacter/FOS or Whole Fiber Fusion as needed.*
