Frequently Asked Questions:
Why do I need biochemical detoxification?
We are increasingly exposed to chemical toxins. There has been an estimated 40,000 new chemicals introduced into the environment in the last two decades alone and 2.5 billion pounds of pesticides sprayed on crops each year. When you add to this that the average American eats 124 pounds of additives a year, the toxic load can easily overwhelm the deplete our detoxification enzyme systems. Such toxic exposure is a significant cause of cancer and other diseases. The Pureworks™ program is designed to replenish these detoxification enzymes with a special supplement that efficiently eliminates toxins from the body.
Will I need to be on a special diet?
The first week you will be on a test diet that eliminates foods commonly associated with food allergies. After the fast you will systematically re-introduce foods to pinpoint hidden food allergies. Even though there is no caloric restriction, people easily loose weight as they begin to make more conscious food choices.
What is the value of fasting?
Fasting has been used for thousands of years in many spiritual traditions as a method of physical and spiritual renewal. When the body is calorically deprived, toxins stored in fat cells are released into the bloodstream and can be cleared by an adequately supported liver. Fasting also interrupts old eating habits, making new food choices easily accessible.
I’m not sure that I can handle a three-day fast.
This scientifically supported fast makes fasting relatively easy. It is much easier than a severe water fast and much more effective than a common juice fast. You may be surprised with the increased clarity, energy and decreased aches and pains that often comes with fasting. If you have a medical condition, take medications, or are unsure if fasting is for you, Dr. Gottlieb will provide personal consultation.
What results can I expect?
The vast majority of participants report a markedly enhanced sense of well-being that is sustained long after the program. The completion of a fast serves as a powerful impetus for participants to make positive lifestyle changes in other areas of their lives as well. Many people find that they lose weight effortlessly as they are naturally drawn to more healthy foods.
