Detox & Metabolic Cleanse
A common deterrent for going on a detox is the time commitment. While most detox programs are 2 or more weeks, Dr. Stephanie’s Detox Pack is one week long, and combines both the toxin binding and toxin-elimination phase to occur simultaneously. A great refresh and restart after too much alcohol, a vacation, and a proactive thing to do 2-3 times per year.
Metabolic Cleanse is ideal to use in conjunction with the Detox Pack. It has rice, pea and fish proteins blended with L-Glutamine and FOS (fructooligosaccharides), which are essential for maintaining gastrointestinal health. It also contains 25% of the Daily Core Essentials [link to DCE] to provide a stable, nutritious, highly bioavailable content to your body.
In times of stress (psychological, emotional, physical, or chemical stresses), the intestinal tract will use large amounts of glutamine for energy. This often results in low blood glutamine levels – and the body will then break down muscle to obtain more glutamine. Metabolic cleanse, by providing glutamine, helps to prevent this process. FOS (fructooligosaccharides) are carbohydrates that pass through the intestine to the colon without being absorbed. Once in the colon, they selectively feed healthy bacteria such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacteria.
