Essential Detox Retreat Preparation

If you are already booked onto a detox retreat you will need to be prepared, especially if you have not done one before. The idea of doing this preparation is that by the time you come to the detox retreat, you will have already had the worst of the healing reactions (healing crises) for some of the powerful ingredients you will be taking.

It is advised then that you do take some of the following (preferably all 3):
  1. Take Colloidal Minerals at the level of 2 fluid oz or more per day.
  2. Take an 8-12oz green juice per day (see main detox week page for typical ingredients).
  3. Take an Enzyme supplement.
Also that you modify your diet as follows:
  1. Eat less sugar, white flour products, meat, fish, cheese and dairy products (apart from butter or yogurt), eat no margarine and minimal fried food or highly processed food.
  2. Eat more salads and raw grated vegetables, steamed vegetables, sprouted pulses, whole grain products, healthy oils such as extra virgin olive oil and hemp oil (unless you are taking anti coagulant drugs).
  3. Drink less alcohol, tea and coffee.
  4. Drink more plain water if you do not drink much already.
The length of time to do this will depend on how healthy you are and whether you have done any serious detoxing before. If you are coming from an average "healthy" dietand you yourself are fairly healthy  you might want to make this modifications for 2 weeks. If you have more serious health concerns you might want to make them for a month or longer, and similarly if your diet contains a large amount of processed or junk food.
