Detoxification/Immune Support
Every day people are exposed to multiple toxins that exceedthe body’s ability to detoxify, causing a buildup of toxins and a compromised immune system.
A detoxification program may be a simple first approach for those suffering from symptoms and conditions associated with
metabolic toxicity or inflammation. Organs such as the intestines, liver and kidneys are affected when there is a build up of toxins.
Detoxification is an energy-requiring process that puts a metabolic burden on the body.
Therefore, water or juice fasts are not beneficial because they deplete the body of the essential nutrients required for healthy detoxification.
These fasts can have many adverse health effects, including decreased energy production,
breakdown of lean tissue instead of fat, increased oxidative stress, and unbalanced detoxification.
A better approach to detoxification is to nourish the body thoroughly,
fueling its natural detoxification mechanism with the nutrients needed to achieve optimal detoxification activity.
Hormone Balance – Female/Male
Hormone imbalance occurs when the body has inadequate building blocks to create both stress hormones and sex hormones.

Female symptoms of hormone imbalance include:
· Water retention and bloating
· Weight gain
· Hot flashes
· Low sex drive
· Memory loss or confusion
· Night sweats
· Dry skin
· Hair loss
· Anxiety
· Depression
· Irritability
