DIET & DETOX PROGRAMMES:

I believe in the beneficial health effects of a detox programme. If one considers the amount of harmful additives that are finding there way into our daily diets it's no wonder there is an explosion of disease around the world. Our bodies were designed to handle the removal of toxins but the sheer volume that is being consumed on a daily basis is a cause for alarm.

There are numerous diets and detox programs available however I recommend the one that is designed around your particular blood group called metabolic typing. I am totally against a "cold turkey" approach as this can place enormous stress on your organs, especially the liver and kidneys, and therefore recommend that for at least 7 days before you start you take herbal extracts to start facilitating a liver and kidney cleanse. Then 2-3 days before you begin, start cutting back on most of the "sin" foods. i.e. Alcohol, coffee, sugars and breads. Then fully commit to the detox for 2-3 weeks.

It is hard going especially if you have bad dietary habits to start with. Start by reducing your intake of coffee, tea, fizzy cool drinks, alcohol, fruit juices (not freshly squeezed) and replace these liquids with water (and work your way up to 8 glasses a day). By the time the 7-10 day period is up you should be ready to tackle the detox programme fully and hopefully avoid the severe headaches that are commonly associated.

The Metabolic typing diet, aims at reducing the amount of antigens in your system, by eating only those foods that are beneficial to your blood group. There is more than enough foods to eat, so it is not that difficult.

An excellent test to perform before you start is called an Indican test and is performed by most laboratories. After two weeks you will be able to see the reduction of antigens in your system and provide much needed encouragement to spurn you on.

The Dermaphend Antigen Reduction Diet, has taken 25 years to develop as each food antigen has been mixed with the 4 specific blood groups in order to ascertain each ones response. It is critical that you only download the diet specific to your Blood group.
Do not attempt this diet while you are pregnant and children under the age of 12 should not partake in the detox aspect unless under medical supervision.
