Why cleanse? our bodies spontaneously detoxify on a daily basis. “Detoxification is a natural bodily process that involves the elimination or neutralization of toxins through the colon, liver, and kidneys.” If you feel “congested” by eating so many of the wrong kinds of food, we recommend detoxing to eliminate toxin and reduce toxin overload. If you have low energy or have been taking a lot of drugs that haven’t been removed from your system, a cleanse may make you feel better. Keep reading and I’ll share with you my top list of Superfoods ideas.
Germ Theory Delusions Crumble After Recent Research Shows That Stable Individuals Bear 10,000 Separate Germ Strains with them at All Times
The human body – a breeding ground for germs? Not as gross as it sounds! A recent study debunked the myth that all bacteria is “bad” by revealing the existence of over 10,000 microbial species that promote health and balance. Findings like this are critical to understanding our fascinating bodies and reminds us how important it is to steadfast to unlocking the power of nutrition in nature. Any holistic practitioner will tell you that the secret is in superfoods.
"Electric foods are the only foods worthy of being consumed. Anything else is poison."
What Comes Out Of Your Body When You Cleanse
When embarking on a cleansing journey, it’s crucial to keep an eye on your bowel movements – yes, you heard that right! They should be happy, formed, and productive. Say goodbye to the uncomfortable feeling of constantly visiting the restroom because, trust me, you won’t be making any mad dashes anytime soon. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to feel toxins being expelled from your body without you even realizing it. And although symptoms might vary from person to person, our program is designed to guide you through the process seamlessly.
In any given scenario, our body knows best – it’s the ultimate decision-maker. However, when overloaded with toxins or functionally compromised due to unfavorable situations that disrupt our body’s natural processes, that’s when the body makes errors such as autoimmune diseases. But here’s the thing, when our body is in tip-top shape, it can recover from injuries swiftly, and let’s not forget, easily ward off countless infections without any outward signs of illness.
Sadly, the buildup of tension and our muscles being weakened due to nutritional deficiencies or toxic chemicals found in our food can shrink our body’s ability to fight disease. Speaking of toxic chemicals in our food, let’s talk about food preservatives, sweeteners, and colorings that were once labeled safe but have since been found to be disastrous to our health. From red, blue, and yellow dyes that cause cancer to Monosodium Glutamate/MSG causing obesity, aspartame driving cancer, to rGBH causing Mad Cow Disease – it’s a scary world out there.
But nothing, and we mean nothing, comes close to the threat posed by glyphosate – the primary chemical in Roundup, which is the main herbicide that is used in genetically modified farming. Scarily enough, glyphosate is everywhere. From our water to the soil and even large rivers, it’s found in almost everything we come across. Even foods that are labeled non-GMO could now have high levels of toxic residues found in them. A real eye-opener, isn’t it?
Trust The Process In Cellular Reset
Our bodies are incredible machines, capable of removing toxic contaminants and repairing damaged cells. However, this process becomes challenging when irritants and pollutants are present. Did you know that even surgically removing a cancerous growth is not enough to cure cancer? Although it may relieve discomfort, the disease-causing agents that triggered the cancer continue to irritate other cells, causing gradual reemergence. Simply removing the signs of an illness won’t cure the condition, we must do the work and focus on redesigning how we nourish our body with natures nutrition. We must discover where to get the best superfoods and greens that are loaded with minerals.
Full Body Cleanse
Allowing the body to cleanse itself is the best way to battle degenerative diseases. This can be achieved by trying out a detox cleanse! But here’s the catch: you can’t accomplish this through surgery, medications, or radiation – it must be done internally.
And we all know that a deficient diet is a major cause of sickness, leading to both physical and mental decline. However, making the right food choices can help you become stronger and happier! In fact, for some individuals, small dietary adjustments can be a game-changer for vexing health problems.
But wait, what if toxic accumulation in the body has been going on for far too long? In such cases, modifying your diet alone may not be enough to combat chronic degenerative diseases that are normally treated with pharmaceutical medications or surgery.
There are certain guidelines that should be followed
Some cleanses mean taking supplementation. While you are supplementing what do you eat?
Why aren’t bananas and starchy veggies recommended?
Bananas are not good for weight loss. Some folks may have constipation while on the cleanse if they consume bananas. They can also convert to carbs and become sticky, which is not ideal for cleansing. When you’re not on a Cleanse, however, bananas in the morning are a good option. When they are ripe and in season, they can be beneficial; but, when they are not ripe or out of season, they are not as beneficial.
in my cellular reset, I guide you through a 10-day immersion. During that time you are guided every day with a video that explains all the nutrition you are taking and what they are doing to your body. During the 10-Day Immersion, you can have more than one Flex Food at a time. If you feel you need more nutrients, go ahead and eat an extra serving.
You can even combine different Flex Foods to make a single dish. Depending on how much of each Flex Food you use, it may constitute more than one serving. For example, you could construct a “salad” with 1/2 cup spinach, 1/2 avocado, and a diced cucumber (seasoned with lemon or vinegar, salt, pepper, or herbs), but this would be 2 Flex Food portions for one meal.
At the end of the day, Flex Foods should be your closest companions. While three servings is the standard, this is YOUR cleanse, and you are in charge. If you find the 10-Day Acceleration too difficult, you could attempt Schedule #1 (on the place-mat and at the top of this blog), which is less stringent.
Can I dress my flex food with balsamic vinaigrette or olive oil?
While we advise you to use solely our Tropic Oil (i.e., Coconut Oil), we also believe in making changes. If you go this way, use only a small amount of virgin, raw organic olive oil. Vinegar can also make you feel full and inhibit your appetite. ALSO, have you ever used Apothe-Cherry as a salad dressing? If you don’t, you’re missing out on some delectable nutrients!
Does the water in the Power Shake count toward my daily water requirements?
No, the timetable urges you to drink half your body weight in ounces of water per day. For the best sense of fullness, drink 20 oz of water each Powershake. To suit your taste, you can reduce the amount of water in your Power Shake.
Flex Foods, Flex Beverages, and Flex Meals will support any healthy lifestyle : One of the reasons why they’re called “flex.”
These foods are a base to stay committed to clean eating and a helpful guide that will steer you and your whole family further away from processed foods.
A good way to understand the differences is to think of Flex Foods/Beverages as snacks and Lifestyle Meals as, well…meals!
FLEX FOODS/FLEX BEVERAGES are organic, super fruits and vegetables that provide you with flavorful taste, a chewing sensation, and the overall experience of eating. They transform stress eating from a negative to a positive by replacing comforting or familiar unhealthy food choices with organic super fruits and vegetables.
When doing a cleanse, Flex Foods and Flex Beverages are a saving grace. Although only 3 per day are allowed (not including cucumbers and celery that are unlimited), these real plant foods will bring an extra dose of joy during the routine 10 days. An avocado will fill you up, cucumbers will satisfy the need for a snack and kombucha can feel like a treat. You don’t have to be on a cleanse to incorporate these Flex Foods/Beverages into your everyday life. These foods and beverages are low in calories and have a low glycemic index, so anyone can benefit from turning to a Flex Food/Beverage for a snack or combine a few for a meal!
FLEX MEALS: Maintaining daily health requires real food. For athletes, the more you burn, the more your appetite demands. Instead of refueling your body with something processed, why not reward yourself with beneficial food? Flex Meals are sure to satisfy, without compromising your health. Have you see the move, ‘Game Changers’? It’s about athletes who out perform when their lifestyle is composed of natures nutrition, superfoods. Healthy foods can be convenient, but prep is key and a little creativity can go a long way.
When on your Purium program, Lifestyle Meals are the meals you choose to compliment your schedule. These are based on your ideal healthy lifestyle. They can be plant-based, high-protein or any dietary type that you prefer.
Flex Foods will naturally become your go-to snacks! You can even use organic tropic oil, fresh squeezed lemon, Himalayan sea salt, raw honey, or fresh herbs and spices, for extra flavor.

- 1 Avocado
- 1 Apple (Eating apples first thing in the morning can help wake you up.)

Flex Foods/Beverages and Lifestyle Meals are a way to control your intake, retrain your hunger cravings, and fuel your body with optimal nutrients while following any of the Transformation schedule options. I source the food for a cellular reset from an organic farm in California. I call this program the Ulitmate Lifestyle Transformation.
The Ultimate Lifestyle Transformation is more about saturating your body with superfoods and theraputic foods from nature. Lifestyle meals are just suggestions. For a program to become a lifestyle change, focus on what works for you and what pace you will follow to create lasting change. Many people continue to eat their standard diet in the beginning for their one meal per day, and as their taste buds change through the use of Purium, they naturally gravitate to healthier options that are on the flex foods list. Some people make more radical shifts during the Transformation and only eat the items in the above list, creating meals by choosing one serving of three listed items per meal, equivalent to 300 calories per meal. If maximizing weight loss is your goal, a stricter approach to flex meals is recommended. Here are a few.

Spaghetti Squash:
Ahhh, pasta. It unites all kinds of eaters, cuisines, and ages. It’s a go-to for picky eaters and spontaneous dinners for families and party hosts. However, even if it’s made with whole wheat or quinoa, it can be a little heavy, and depending on your body, it may not digest easily.
Enter: the scrumptious, protein-filled, fiber-robust, and low calorie/carb spaghetti squash.
Although the food prep can seem a little tedious, once you get into the routine of cooking with the full-bodied veggie, it won’t seem so daunting.
Since it has a mild taste, this squash serves as a satisfying base for all kinds of dishes and can easily become a kitchen staple.
Pre-heat the oven and carefully slice the ends of squash (as thin as possible), before you cut them in half (lengthwise). Scoop out the seeds Put some coconut oil on the inside edges of the squash and face the halves down onto a baking sheet. Bake for 20-40 minutes (depending on the size of the squash) or until brownish.
Flex Food Favorite: Avocado
Avocados are one of the tastiest Flex Foods. And hey what do you know, they’re not just something for millennials to spread on toast! Not only are they tasty, but they are good for you too. In fact, on average, the savory fruit carries 20 different vitamins and minerals, with only 160 calories!
One avocado can also provide 9 grams of carbohydrates, but 7 of them are fiber, making this a low-carb food with 2 net carbs.
Plus, they are packed with monosaturated fatty acids. So, what does this mean for you?
Well, the main component of avocado’s fat is oleic acid. This acid has been linked to positive heart benefits and has been shown to regulate blood sugar levels. This means that heat-activated avocado oil could be a heart-healthy substitute for other cooking oils.
Avocados also hold antioxidant phytochemicals, which help protect against diseases like macular degeneration, which can lead to vision loss and even cataracts. They have also been linked to cancer prevention and arthritis relief. Avocado is truly a SUPERfood.
