Cleanse & Detox Guidebook

( pure: /pyoor/ free of unnecessary elements

Free of unnecessary elements… how life is meant to be.

Because our lifestyles have taken us away from health and wellness to one of processed foods, stress, toxins and inactivity, the pure21cleanse & detox system is just what we need to get back on track! The pure21 system is simple & easy to use. It is specifically designed to reverse the effects of years of exposure to harmful and even potentially lethal toxins, as well as, lifestyles consisting of high stress, poor diet and inactivity. pure21 uses scientifically based formulas, herbal blends, and nutrients that are designed to support and enhance your body's ability to clean, filter and nourish itself from the inside out. By eliminating toxins and nourishing your body with healthy nutrients, you are able to reset your body for optimal health and a more active life.

Being HEALTHY

isn’t a goal. It is a way of

LIVING.

The pure21 cleanse & detox system is a proven and tested program using three simple stages designed to easily help you achieve a healthy lifestyle. Stage 1: Kickstart — 3 day cleanse This stage is a liquid diet and a regiment of specific supplements used for their cleansing benefits. Stage 2: Reset — 18 day detox This stage has two phases. The first phase is 7 days and the second is 11 days. During Reset, healthy, solid food options are introduced.

Stage 3: Live — Maintenance This stage signifies that you have finished your pure21 cleanse & detox and have successfully reset your body. By now, you have developed great habits that you will want to make a permanent part of your life. For this stage, four maintenance packs have been developed that are tailored to meet your specific goals and needs. These packs will be discussed later.

In order to maximize your results, the following is suggested: Commit: As your body goes through the detoxification process you may want to quit. DON’T QUIT! Post motivational pictures throughout your house. You can enlist others who will keep you focused or if possible, join you in doing a pure21 cleanse & detox. Eliminate: Completely remove the following from your diet: caffeine, sugar, soda, high fructose corn syrup, dairy, wheat, alcohol, trans fats, and processed and fast foods. As you eliminate these substances, notice your withdrawal symptoms and how your body reacts. Some people see a noticeable decrease in aches, pains, and inflammation. This is also a great opportunity for you to take time to evaluate

whether or not you should reintroduce some or any of these items back into your diet. Resist the urge to binge the week before you detox. This will only result in harder withdrawals and could cause you to fall off the detox wagon. BE PREPARED: Transitioning to a cleaner diet not only takes commitment, it also takes time. Make sure that you set aside time to shop and prepare your healthy meals in advance. Tools & Equipment: Ensure that you have the proper tools and equipment necessary to make the meals you are planning to consume during your 21 day detox. For example, it is a good idea to have a powerful blender, citrus juicer, and other tools necessary to make your meals.

Hydrate: Drink at least 64 ounces of water a day. The more water you consume, the easier it is for your body to flush out toxins. Bulk: When possible, buy in bulk or with another person to limit costs. Body Cleanse & Detox Plus: If the cleansing and detox process is too strong when taking the Body Cleanse and/or the Detox Plus capsules and tablets, it is acceptable to cut back on the dosage. For instance, you can take just one Body Cleanse pack a day. Weight: Most people lose weight using the pure21 cleanse and detox system. If you don’t in the first few days, don’t get discouraged. This is normal. Results will vary. On the other hand, if you want to gain weight, double your intake of the SLM shake. 12 hour Deep Clean: The body works optimally when it has a 12 hour grace period between the last meal eaten of the day and the first one eaten in the morning. This 12 hour period allows the body to digest any food in transit and then it performs a deep clean when there is an absence of food. Exercise: Sweating is an important feature used by the body to rid itself of

toxins. However, do not overexert yourself. Ease into or cut back during the first 3-7 days. Pamper Yourself: During your detox you may find yourself fatigued from your body flushing out toxins. This is very common. Make sure that you take the proper amount of time to rest. Nap or go to bed earlier if necessary. This is okay. Your body is working overtime and needs the time necessary to heal itself. This is also a great time for you to reward yourself as well. Evening Detox Bath: When taking your Detox Bath, make sure that you use a quality, therapeutic grade oil. You may want to skip this part of the cleanse and detox...DON’T. The epsom salt, baking soda, and lavender oil, all have very important detoxifying and cleansing properties for relaxation, as well as stress relief, and nourishing your body with magnesium. Social, Emotional & Habitual Eating: Take notice of how often you want to eat, especially out of boredom, in social environments, and habit. Probiotic: You may want to use a good probiotic during the cleanse & detox to enhance digestion and proper absorption.

Will I lose weight? Although our pure21 system is not designed for weight loss, many people do lose extra pounds using our program. When will I see the cleansing effects? Most people feel the cleansing properties in the first day. Because one’s body may have to adjust to new foods, toxins will be working their way out, and they usually feel the effects of withdrawals from the lack of sugar, caffeine, gluten, and processed foods. Will my bathroom use increase ? Absolutely. Some of the herbal blends you will take have a laxative effect. In addition, the added water intake will also increase the need for urination. However, the more you eliminate the better your body will feel. Are there side effects? Everyone is different. Not everyone reacts the same. Some people may experience headaches from caffeine and sugar withdrawals and a change in your normal diet. Others may experience an upset stomach or cramping caused during the detox process. This is normal. Do I keep taking my medications? DO NOT stop taking your prescribed medications. If you have questions, ask your healthcare practitioner. Can I take additional vitamins? Additional vitamins are acceptable. However, due to the combination of different products within pure21, other vitamins are not necessary.

Can I exercise? Yes. But, monitor your body and make adjustments accordingly. Make sure that you do not overexert yourself. Walking is encouraged to keep the blood flowing. What happens if I cheat ? No worries. If you happen to fall off the wagon, recommit yourself to the process and keep going. How much water should I drink? Drink enough water that you must urinate frequently throughout the day. The added water helps the flushing and cleansing process. Will I have cravings? Yes. This is normal. Most people are addicted to various junk and processed foods, sugar, salt, caffeine and bad fats. As a result, make sure you have plenty of healthy snacks available to replace your unhealthy choices. Will the detox affect my sleep? It is possible. But, it doesn’t happen very often. In fact, after a few days, most people wake up refreshed and with new energy. Can children do this detox? No. Anyone participating in pure21

should be 18 years or older. What if I have a medical condition? If you have a medical condition of any kind whatsoever, you need to consult with your physician or healthcare professional of choice before starting this program.

Disclaimer Always seek the advice of your physician or another qualified health care professional regarding any questions or concerns you have about your specific health situation, possible or actual pregnancy, known or suspected food sensitivities or allergies, dietary restrictions, or any medications you are currently taking. Do not stop taking any medications without talking to your physician or health care professional. If you have or suspect that you have a medical problem, contact your health care provider promptly.
