DETOX

It has been proven beyond doubt that environmental toxins have been invading our bodies, causing oxidative damage to cellular lipids, proteins and DNA with health shattering consequences.

The body’s detoxifying organs, the liver, kidneys and digestive tract are inherently programmed to cleanse the body but nonetheless are dependent on each other. Any impairment in one of these organs may cause disorders in the others. Keeping the liver, kidneys and digestive tract clean and functional is imperative to sustaining a viable defense against environmental and metabolic toxins for retaining a prime state of health.

LIVAFECT - LIVER CLEANSING FORMULA

Natural vitamin C is required for protecting cells and tissues from oxidative free radicals. Vitamin C also plays important roles in collagen formation, brain neurotransmitters production, and adrenal function. In its natural form, the water-soluble antioxidant vitamin C is inherently attached to its nutritional cofactors, which all together work with the fat soluble antioxidant vitamins E and A/carotenes to protect cellular proteins, lipids and DNA from oxidative damage. Oxidative damage has been regarded as the main cause of tissue degradation and aging. Unlike synthetic vitamin C, which is devoid of nutritional cofactors, and has shown to cause undesirable side effects, Vitamin C from Amla Berries is a natural complex of vitamin C and cofactors, received by the body as whole food and causes no adverse side effects.

Livafect is designed to naturally support liver health and function. The formula contains a proprietary blend of herbal extracts, designed to promote cleansing and rejuvenation of the liver and the whole body.

KidnX - KIDNEY CLEANSING FORMULA

The kidneys’ primary function is to maintain the body’s fluid homeostasis by regulating mineral concentrations and by filtering and neutralizing toxins and metabolites. In conjunction with the liver, the kidneys are important regulators of blood pressure, glucose metabolism and red blood cells formation.

Accumulated toxicity, a high intake of refined salt (sodium chloride), inadequate water intake, and excessively high protein intake are some of the most notable causative factors to kidney disorders with symptoms including formation of kidney stones, urinary tract infections, water retention, salt intolerance and elevated blood pressure.

KidnX is an all natural herbal formula, designed to support kidneys’ function and health.

	Triplala – an Ayurvedic herbal remedy made from three equal parts of fruit extracts (embilica, terminalia bellirica and terminalia chebula) with potential cleansing, digestive healing and anti-cancerous properties.  Triphala has been gaining the reputation as a natural aid for body detoxification, removal of undesirable fat and prevention of cancer – proving to induce cellular toxicity in tumors but spared normal cells.  By virtue of its blood purifying, glycemic balancing and metabolic protective properties, Triphala can be useful as a natural kidneys’ cleansing and metabolic supportive aid.
	Boerhaavia (punarnava) – punarnava means body rejuvenation – Boerhaavia has been traditionally used in Indian herbal medicine to rejuvenate the urinary system, relieve edema and kidney disorders.  The plant is rich in beneficial plant alkaloids and sterols as well as aromatic oils and antioxidants.  Boerhaavia is used to alleviate pain and swelling.  By virtue of its potent diuretic and cleansing properties, it boosts up renal filtration and rejuvenates kidney functions.  It has been successfully useful in natural kidney flushing and relieving water retention, swollen joints and rheumatic disorders.

DigestX - A SYNBIOTIC, CLEANSING FORMULA

Probiotics are friendly gut bacteria that play a critical role in the digestion and absorption of food and nutrients. Friendly gut bacteria are vital to protection against pathogenic microorganisms and are key contributing factors to the sustainability of a healthy immune system

DigestX is a synbiotic formula, containing a food derived matrix of beneficial probiotics with pre-biotics and antioxidant nutrients, designed to cleanse the digestive tract and support healthy gut flora.

Probiotics are mainly active in the small intestines. Their beneficial impact is limited and questionable without pre-biotic food (nutrients that help increase probiotics population). Cutting through the misconceptions, pseudo-science and false claims often provided by supplements manufacturers, the truth is that there is no published evidence that probiotics supplements are capable to fully restore the body’s natural flora, when these have been killed off. In fact, the evidence shows that probiotics bacterial levels in feces disappear within days when supplementation ceases.

Proper incorporation of probiotics with pre-biotics yields a synergistic synbiotic effect, promoting a spontaneous increase in the body’s natural flora population with a superior, long lasting impact on the body. Compared to the impact of probiotics alone, which can’t survive long without pre-biotic foods and are also limited to the small intestine mainly, a synbiotic formula such as DigestX can potentially induce a long lasting effect, benefiting both the upper and the lower part of the digestive tract.

	Improve lactose tolerance – certain lactobacillus probiotics stains can potentially help lactose intolerance, individuals digest lactose by converting the milk-sugar lactose into lactic acid, allowing a greater tolerance to dairy.
	Protecting against colon cancer – some probiotics strains have demonstrated anti-mutagenic effects, apparently due to their ability to bind to carcinogenic substances, such as those formed in cooked meat.  Animal studies confirmed that probiotics can protect against colon cancer.
	Anti-inflammatory – probiotics foods and supplements have shown to modulate inflammatory responses such as inflammatory bowel syndrome, by manipulating cytokine (hormone-like substances) function.
	Improving mineral absorption – lactic acid producing probiotics are believed to improve trace minerals absorption, particularly in individuals on a high phytate vegetarian diet.
	Fight harmful bacteria – evidence shows that probiotics therapies help prevent bacterial and yeast infections as well as related diseases.
	Relief from irritable bowel syndrome and colitis – probiotics strains have shown to improve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome and benefit treatments for ulcerative colitis.
	Improved muscle protein utilization – probiotics have shown to enhance protein digestion and increase the rate of protein utilization in the muscle.
