It is exciting to see people waking up everyday feeling alive and feeling good in their body. Watching people create the lives they want to live.

The World Getting Fatter

People are getting fatter and fatter,  says Virginia, a lady who was fed up with being supersized. When she couldn’t reach down to tie her own shoes, it was time for a change.

Depressed, Need a Vacation?

Cary thought he needed a 6 month vacation, due to depression and liver issues. After a few days of juice fasting, he was feeling fantastic. No need for the 6 month vacation. In this video, you can see him juicing wheat grass, with a Green Star juicer. Very similar to the Green life juicer I have at home.

A Bonus Detox

One of the things I have added lately to my own detox regime is Dr Miller’s Iaso tea.  It is a blend of natural herbs, selected for their detox and weight loss properties. It is also great for an everyday drink to help keep the body and specifically the colon clean. Click on the image below to check it out.

Drink Detox Tea

I love to do a little detox while I’m camping.

It gives me an opportunity to consume a very cleansing diet.

Lots of fresh raw organic vegetables that are very rich in enzymes, a little bit of clean meat that’s free of hormones and antibiotics, and that kind of stuff.

Trying Something New

I’m going to consume a detoxifying herbal tea blend with white tea.

I’m actually going to make sun tea. I  use white tea to make the sun tea, which contains a little bit of caffeine.

White Better than Green Tea?

It’s a little bit healthier from what I’ve heard for you than green tea actually. So you could use green tea, or black tea to make yours if you want, even herbal tea is good, if you prefer to be caffeine free. I just prefer to use this white tea. It contains a little bit less caffeine, but you still get some caffeine.

So like if you’re replacing some of your coffee with this cleansing tea, you don’t go through all of that caffeine withdrawal. You can still get your caffeine buzz without taking the jolt from coffee, which is very acidic. So if you follow pH balancing at all, you’ll find out that white tea is a lot happier on the pH balance scale than coffee is.

Cleansing Detox Tea

So then I blend into my sun tea, Doctor Miller’s Iaso tea, which is a blend of cleansing, purifying herbs, which cleanse your body out in several different ways, but one of the ways it works is to provide you with a gentle colon cleanse. Unlike some of these products that provide an explosive diarrhea cleanse, this is natural herbs.

It’s a little more gentle and soothing, so it works great for me. I’m just going to be consuming this tea while I’m camping, to provide myself with a little bit more detox action.

Toxins

If you feel lousy, it might be because you are toxic.

So why are you a toxic waste dump and what can you do about it?

Dr Mark Hyman fills us in, with this video.

I’m a big fan of Dr Hyman, he is one of the best holistic thinkers out there, and he has a wide range of experience.

Scientists and practitioners are starting to wake up and recognize the role of toxins in health and disease.

How can we not be affected by the 6 million pounds of mercury emissions per year? This is just the tip of the iceberg. What about the 80,000 other chemical that are released every year into the environment?

Many people just don’t realize they are toxic. They do have symptoms of toxicity, but they just don’t make the connection.

The best strategy is to avoid, eliminate and reduce as many toxins as possible. Then take steps to get the inside of the body cleaned up.

Summary of his steps for detoxification:
- with my comments following

• Drink plenty of clean water. – I always have purified water with me wherever I go.
• Move your bowels, constipation is a killer. – Link to my favorite natural colon product
• Eat lots of organic produce. – My 365 day a year organic garden covers this one for me.
• Include garlic and onions for their sulfur content. – I love garlic, but my wife hates the smell
• Avoid stimulants, alcohol etc -  Switched from coffee to green and white tea. Less caffeine, not so acidic
• Exercise – I love to, yoga, bike riding, hiking, weights, just get out and do it!
• Avoid white flour and sugar – With pleasure, that is some nasty stuff, not going into my body.
• Multi vitamin mineral – I prefer a liquid for better absorption
• Relax Deeply - Restorative yoga is the deal.

What is the DetoxBootCamp?

People are asking, What is the Detox Boot Camp? And what is involved in it?

Here is a lady who has gotten good results with Dr. Miller’s Holy Tea

Her story is one of many testimonials. You can view several more videos here.  Just click on the news link once you get to the site.

I have some of this tea on order now myself. I feel like a good periodic parasite cleanse is a good idea. The tea is also great for general detoxification. Dr Miller’s Holy tea has actually been upgraded. The new formula is called Iaso tea. It has a few additional ingredients.

Factors that increase susceptibility to parasites

• pH imbalance
• Too much sugar or sweet foods
• Poor circulation
• Eating raw meat
• Low stomach acid and/or digestive enzymes
• Excess toxins
• Weak immune system
• Having pets
• Drinking or swimming in contaminated water

Liver cleanse

Did you know the liver is involved in over 500 functions in the human body? If you take good care of your liver it will take care of you.

That’s why I’m giving my liver some extra TLC during my Detox Boot Camp.

Check out the video, then read more below…

Liver Cleanse with Herbs and Diet

First off, I’m eating a much cleaner and lighter diet during the detox. This lightens the workload of the liver dramatically. Most people eat so much processed food, prescription drugs, caffeinated drinks and so on and on and on, that the liver is way behind schedule. It appreciates a lighter workload.

Famous for the Liver

Milk thistle is one of the most well known herbs for the liver. Herbalists have been recommending it for the liver for a long time. I just pick up some bulk milk thistle at the local herb shop.     A few dollars for an ounce.  I blend the milk thistle with a much larger quantity of flax seed, (1-2 lbs.) and into the blender it goes (2-3 ounces) for my morning smoothie. I’m only getting a very small amount of the milk thistle each day. that one ounce lasts a long time.

The herbalist down at that same herb store recommended St John’s Wort for me as well. She does muscle testing, so that’s how she came to that conclusion. So several tablespoons of bulk St John’s Wort go into the coffee pot with about a quart of hot water each morning, and I’ve got some tea. St John’s wort can cause sun-sensitivity, so do your research before partaking.

Liver Formula

For good measure I’m also taking an herbal formula, called Liver Cleanse Formula. It provides a number of beneficial herbs for the liver.  Click for more info on the ingredients.

There are other more exotic and difficult ways to do a liver cleanse, I’ve tried some of them. but for now I’m getting good results with this little regime, so I’m going to stick with it.

One final but important note: If you are thinking of doing a liver cleanse, it’s important to have the bowels working good first. If you are constipated, a liver cleanse isn’t going to work very well. A good colon cleansing regime would be a good starting place, then think about the liver.

How to Detox

What is the Best Way to Detox?

Dr Mercola share his thoughts in this video.

Our bodies are bombarded by a barrage of pollutants and toxins.

Some of this can lead to developmental and neurological toxicity.

Dr Mercola Talks About Detoxification

Metabolic Typing – Eating vegetables is important, but are you eating the right ones for your metabolic type?

Exercise – To a point where you work up a good sweat. Eliminate toxins through perspiration.

Lots of pure water – Soda and beer don’t count. Having your own filtering system at home is one of the most economical ways to get pure water. Also better for the environment.

Cleansing – Dr Mercola recommends Perfect Cleanse, I haven’t tried that one myself. He also mentions cilantro and chlorrela. I’ve got a bunch of cilantro growing in my garden, it thrives this time of year (spring). I like to use Natural Cellular Defense, for clearing my body of heavy metals, like lead and mercury.

A Few Other Cleanse Products I use in the Detox Boot Camp:

Liver cleanse

Food Enzymes

Para-Cleanse

Get clean on the inside.

It’s the whole program that counts, not just one magic bullet.

Consistency is the key.

A few days of detox isn’t going to perform miracles, after a lifetime of poor habits.

It’s a commitment to a better lifestyle nad habits that makes a difference.

I have one of these almost every dya for breakfast, even when I’m not doing the detox boot camp.
