Revolutionary
Healing Foods from Natural Factors
The SEVEN
DAY Total Nutritional Cleansing Program is a revolutionary 2-Step healing
foods program, scientifically formulated to provide gastrointestinal
healing and complete nutritional support for your body as it goes through
the detoxification process.
Step 1:
RevitalX™ allows you to rest, heal and rejuvenate the gut, getting
rid of internally generated toxins and paving the way for powerful detoxification
using Detoxitech™. People who suffer from poor digestion may have
leaky gut syndrome, and experience a wide range of health problems such
as food intolerances, fatigue and mental exhaustion. RevitalX™
supports the digestive system and heals the gastrointestinal tract,
giving the body relief from toxic stress.
Step 2:
In Step 2, Detoxitech™ is used to thoroughly but gently cleanse.
It is designed to fully support every process used by the body to transport,
detoxify and excrete heavy metals and other toxic substances from the
body.
Colon Support
& Liver Support
Included in the program are 7 supplement packets, one to be used each
day, containing (2) Colon Support tablets and three (3) Liver Support
capsules.Colon Support tablets help clear the colon of toxins that can
accumulate and Liver Support capsules assist the liver’s detoxification
action.
After completing
the Seven Day program most people should expect to feel energized, have
a sense of well being, have shed some pounds and will have taken vital
steps toward insuring good health!
Why Detoxify?
Of the
more than 75,000 chemicals registered with the Environmental Protection
Agency,
only a very small fraction have ever been assessed for their toxicity
in humans. In fact, only about 25 percent of commonly used chemicals
have undergone even the most basic toxicity testing. Most of these untested
chemicals make their way into natural ecosystems and many end up in
human bodies.
According
to the Second National Report on Human Exposure to Environmental Chemicals,
published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, all humans
now have a frightening number of chemicals in their bodies that are
known to have significantly toxic effects. Though the concentration
of each of these chemicals is generally rather small, research demonstrates
that the combined effects of many toxic chemicals multiplies their individual
toxicity.
The human
body has the capacity to process toxins. However, in today's polluted
world, environmental toxins, combined with toxins created within the
body due to poor nutrition or malfunctioning digestive systems, can
over tax the body's detoxification system causing serious health issues.
To maintain good health every person should undergo an effective detoxification
program on a regular basis to purge out pollutants that accumulate in
cells and organs.
Other detoxification
products may stimulate release of toxins from cells, but none adequately
support all of the complex steps the body requires to effectively remove
toxins from the body like the Seven Day Total Nutritional Cleansing
Program.
Effective
detoxification requires the body to undergo a complex series of processes
that must take place in an unbroken chain of events. In addition, during
detoxification, it is important to support the body with specific vitamins,
minerals, amino acids, phytochemicals and dietary fiber. The 7 Day Total
Nutritional Cleansing Program completely supports all the complex steps
of the chain of events in the body to complete the detoxification process
while nourishing and supporting the body's systems.

Common
Questions
WHAT IF
I GET HUNGRY?
Detoxification requires some fat burning but a person should not become
exhausted or feel starved. Make RevitalX™ and Detoxitech™
blender smoothies and add flaxseed oil or some raw almonds or sunflower
seeds to increase caloric intake. Nibbling frequently on low-calorie
fresh vegetables and an occasional piece of fresh fruit is the best
way to deal with hunger between “meals”. Snack when hungry,
but avoid over-eating.
CAN I EXERCISE?
Yes! If you exercise vigorously during your cleansing program be sure
to drink plenty of pure water and carry raw almonds or sunflower seeds
for energy.
WHO SHOULD
NOT DETOXIFY?
This thorough cleansing program is not recommended for pregnant or nursing
women. If you are on drugs or undergoing other therapies for a serious
health condition, consult a health practitioner before beginning a cleansing
program.
The 7 Day
Total Nutritional Cleansing Program may be given to children in reduced
dosages. For children 12 years of age or older, use 1/2 the recommended
dosage and eliminate junk food, sugary snacks and soft drinks, deep
fried foods, etc. to realize the benefits of RevitalX™ and Detoxitech™
.
SHOULD
I KEEP TAKING VITAMINS?
Due to the high nutritional content of these products you are not required
to take other vitamins, minerals, herbs or supplements while on the
Program. Natural Factors RxOmega-3 Factors is an essential fatty acid
supplement that may enhance the Total Nutritional Cleansing Program
as can the addition of Enriching Greens®. Most supplements are “compatible”with
the 7 Day Program.
WHAT ABOUT
ALCOHOL? CAFFEINE?
Avoid alcohol, tea and coffee (including decaffeinated drinks) during
the program, as well as soft drinks and junk food.
WHAT SHOULD
I EXPECT WHILE ON THIS PROGRAM?
People can experience different physical reactions while on the program,
based on their existing state of health and toxicity levels.
After completing
the program many people feel energized and revitalized. Typical benefits
include: more energy; better digestion and elimination; improved sleep;
improved circulation. Some people experience unpleasant short term reactions
during the cleansing process which may include:headaches; skin breakouts;
mild diarrhea or nausea; excess mucous production. If symptoms persist,
consult your health professional as they may be unrelated to the detoxification
program.
IS THIS
A WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM?
No. The 7 Day Total Nutritional Cleansing Program is an internal cleansing
program, not a diet product, but people have reported weight loss while
cleansing. Many people have an excessive amount of fecal matter in their
intestines and this program will help cleanse the fecal matter out of
your body. Internal cleansing should always be one of the first steps
in a good weight control program. Cleansing may help increase assimilation
of nutrients, for improved appetite control. Cleansing the organs may
also improve their performance, enhancing metabolism.
SHOULD
I KEEP USING REVITALX™ OR DETOXITECH™ AFTER COMPLETING THE
PROGRAM?
Yes! For vibrant health you should schedule a 7 Day Total Nutritional
Cleansing Program every 3 months. RevitalX™ and Detoxitech™
can also be purchased separately and used for health maintenance. Choose
RevitalX™ for digestive and gastrointestinal support, and/or Detoxitech™
if you are sensitive to toxins or live in a polluted environment.
Step 1:
RevitalX™
Rest and
RevitalizeYour Digestion In Step 1 of the 7 Day Total Nutritional Cleansing
Program, RevitalX™ allows you to rest, heal and rejuvenate the
gut, getting rid of internally generated toxins and paving the way for
powerful detoxification using Detoxitech™.
When we
talk about toxins, we're not just talking about poisons from outside.
The world within the stomach and intestines is hostile and, if this
region is not in perfect health, a tremendous burden of toxic stress
is placed upon the the whole body because of internally derived toxins.
Toxic fermentation or putrifaction by-products of intestinal microbes,
and a breakdown in the leakproof lining of the gut, can place the immune
system, the liver and the brain in a health degrading state of toxic
stress.
The lining
of the intestines is nearly leak proof but it is only the thickness
of one layer of cells and can be easily damaged. If stress on these
delicate cells is too intense, gaps can form between the cells allowing
small and large molecules to pass through undigested into the bloodstream.
If there are a lot of these gaps, you will experience what is called
increased intestinal permeability or “leaky gut syndrome”.
Some internal debris is transported to lymph nodes, or to the liver
where it can be digested, processed and removed, but some escapes and
ends up in general circulation. In this way, leaky gut syndrome puts
great stress upon the immune system, the liver and every organ and body
system. People who suffer from leaky gut syndrome experience a wide
range of health problems such as food intolerances, fatigue and mental
exhaustion.
RevitalX™
contains:
* highly
digestible, low allergy potential protein
* L-glutamine, a metabolism regulator that helps prevent gastrointestinal
distress
* N-acetyl glucosamine (NAG) which helps control excessive gas and intestinal
mucous
* Pantothenic acid which helps control allergy reactions
* Zinc, the healing mineral, to help heal damaged digestive tissue and
supports immunity
* A variety of potent antioxidants plus quercetin, the anti-allergy
bioflavonoid
* Water soluble fiber that helps heal leaky gut and improve elimination
* Lecithin for more healing support
In Step
1, RevitalX™ supports the digestive system and heals the gastrointestinal
tract, giving the body relief from toxic stress. It is the perfect first
step to prepare your body for the deep tissue cleansing process of Step
2.
Step 2: Detoxitech™
Detoxification
& deep tissue cleansing In Step 2, Detoxitech™ is designed
to fully support every process used by the body to transport, detoxify
and excrete heavy metals and other toxic substances from the body.
Toxic chemicals,
even at low levels, over time may:
* cause
cancer
* damage the brain & nervous system
* damage the immune system
* alter hormonal function
* alter cellular energy production
* counteract antioxidant protection
Detoxitech™
contains:
* nutrients
and phytochemicals to increase production of a key molecule known as
glutathione. Glutathione is used by cells to “mop up” toxins.
It then helps transport these toxins to the liver and kidneys where
they are processed for disposal.
* a special blend of amino acids, antioxidants and phytochemicals that
protect and support the liver and kidneys as they process toxins.
* a blend of low allergy potential fibers, and ionically-charged plant
extracts that effectively bind to toxins in the intestine, preventing
absorption back into the bloodstream
* MSM and broccoli extracts: rich sources of sulphur food factors that
support the liver's detoxification enzymes
* a potent enzyme complex (Peptizyme™) to speed protein digestion
and act as a natural anti-inflammatory agent
* substances that keep the bowels moving efficiently. This is important
when the liver processes toxins at an accelerated rate.
Step 2
of your 7 Day Total Nutritional Cleansing Program is specifically designed
to help eliminate toxins that have been absorbed from the outside, such
as heavy metals, pesticides, fumes from paints, solvents and PCB's.
Colon Support & Liver Support
Included
in the program are 7 supplement packets, one to be used each day, containing
(2) Colon Support tablets and three (3) Liver Support capsules.
Colon Support
tablets help clear the colon of toxins that can accumulate and the ingredients
help gently cleanse mucus along the small intestine, create bulk in
the colon, and pull toxins from the gastrointestinal tract, helping
to ensure bowel motility.
Because
of its many metabolic functions the liver is our most important organ
for detoxification. Liver Support capsules contain a special formula
providing additional support for the liver's detoxification action while
on the program.
It is important
that you continue to have 2 to 3 bowel movements per day during the
7 day cleanse. Be sure you eat enough raw fruits and vegetables. These
bulk foods contain fiber, a necessary component in detoxification.

fat cells. Be sure to get some exercise each day and have a hot bath
or sauna most evenings.
You might
feel a bit weak or “out of sorts” at the start of the program.
This is normal. You may want to begin the 7 Day Program on a weekend
so you are free to rest. By the beginning of the work week, you should
be feeling very good.
Congratulations!

heal and detoxify your system. By Day 7 you should feel fresh, revitalized
and energized. For long term health, we recommend using the 7 Day Program
