FAQ
How often should I do the Colon Cleansing Kit?
This is best answered by listening to your body. Ultimately you are the best judge of your needs and if you intuitively feel now is the time for you to cleanse, then do so. That said, there are general minimum and maximum guidelines. What determines how often you cleanse is the state of your health and whether you have ever done any cleansing before. Those who are not in the best of health and/or have never cleansed before will find they need to cleanse more frequently for the first 2–3 years and then return to a yearly or twice yearly maintenance program of cleansing. Minimum, once a year or once every Spring and Fall. Maximum, once every 2–3 months, followed by alternating periods of a rebuilding diet/program.
Please consult your healthcare practitioner if you elect to choose this more intensive path of cleansing.*
Which cleanse do I do first?
Blessed Herbs recommend doing the Colon Cleansing Kit™ first, followed by the Internal Cleansing Kit™. It is important to remove old, accumulated waste before you move onto cleansing other parts of your body. If this intestinal waste is not cleansed first, it will continue to release toxins into your body, while you are trying to cleanse other areas.*For optimum results after completing Colon Cleansing Kit™, you should resume eating solid foods for four days and continue taking “your number” of Digestive Stimulator™ capsules each evening, before dinner. You may find that since you are no longer fasting, “your number” may change slightly; this is OK, simply adjust accordingly.
After four days you should start Step One on the Internal Cleansing Kit™. Even though you already know how many Digestive Stimulator™ capsules you need to have regular bowel movements, you should still take three days to complete Step One of the Internal Cleansing Kit™. During this time you will be taking “your number” of Digestive Stimulator™ capsules before dinner and one packet of Toxin Absorber™ before bed for each of the three nights. After completion of Step One of the Internal Cleansing Kit™, you may move on to Step Two.
If you are not immediately starting the Internal Cleansing Kit™ after finishing the Colon Cleansing Kit™, as recommended above, then simply follow the directions in the Internal Cleansing Kit™ whenever you decide to start it.
What if my bowels just won’t move?
Often this could be associated with a difficulty of letting go at an emotional level. Stress, pressure, and sudden challenges can also easily affect bowel movements. If one is paying “too much” attention to their bowel movements this can cause “emotional” constipation. Often times, simply letting go at the emotional level will release the bowels. Once one with this challenge has released for the first time, one should not experience any more difficulties throughout the program.
If increasing “your number” of Digestive Stimulator capsules in the evening does not help, you may split-up “your number” of capsules and take them three times a day instead of only in the evening. If that doesn’t quite work, then you may increase your split-up dosage.
What if I still can’t go?
Whether you are waiting for the increased or split–up doses of “your number” to take effect or you have already tried everything, but nothing is working yet, it is a must to move your bowels! If you have gone a whole day without a bowel movement, take an enema or colema. During a cleanse it is essential to have consistent bowel movements. An enema or colema is a simple and healthy way to assure a bowel movement. Use only distilled, filtered, or purified water, fresh brewed coffee, or peppermint tea for your enema/colema.
Do I have to be in the bathroom all the time?
While you will be going to the bathroom more often, you will not experience it as an overwhelming, uncontrollable or urgent need. The Digestive Stimulator has been formulated to act very gently, but surely, with your body. You will find it quick, easy, and comfortable to have three plus bowel movements a day.*
How will I feel during the cleanse?
Each person feels differently as they cleanse. Some feel very energetic and more alive while cleansing; others not until after they have completed their cleanse. It is also possible to alternate between feeling great and not so great.*
There may be occasional discomforts called cleansing reactions. The more closely you stay on a liquids–only diet or eat an all raw diet of fruits and vegetables the more likely you will experience strong cleansing reactions.*
If the body is ready, some will even experience a deep cleansing reaction. This can happen during the cleanse, but more likely will occur sometime later when you have built up your strength. All these experiences are the body’s wisdom at work focusing on the areas that need to reach optimal health. Any discomforts of cleansing are only temporary, and always lead to more energy, vitality, and renewed health.*
What is a superficial cleansing reaction?
Whenever the body releases toxins or balances the unwanted guests population faster than it can eliminate them, and/or the liver is functioning weakly, you may experience some discomfort until you regain your balance.
This usually lasts anywhere from an hour to one or two days. The common signs that signal a superficial cleansing reaction might be any of the following: headache, itching, rashes, aching muscles and/ or joints, fever, sweating, body odour, bad breath, mouth sores, appetite loss, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, sleeplessness, tiredness or exhaustion. Don’t worry. The superficial cleansing reaction usually passes quickly and does not harm your body. It is only a sign that soon you will be feeling better than ever.*
What is a deep cleansing reaction?
A deep cleansing reaction is more than just a superficial cleansing reaction. Most all of us have absorbed toxins from our polluted environments, but not all of us have suffered with trauma or health problems.
A superficial cleansing reaction shows itself in generalized body signs while releasing toxins. A deep cleansing reaction shows itself in the reappearance of old signs associated within specific areas that have undergone injury or health problems. You may also experience the superficial cleansing reaction signs while undergoing this work. The body’s wisdom is such that as you clean out and regain energy; the body directs that energy to heal these old injuries or health problems. The body only does this when it knows it can handle it. Once again, the signs may be mild to severe, but only as much as your body can sustain at that time. It can last for a few hours, to a few days, and more rarely, for a few weeks.*
The deep cleansing reaction mimics the signs of your particular past experiences, but in a much shortened version. It is always preceded the day before by feeling “on top of the world” rather than by feeling “out of sorts”.*
The deep cleansing reaction passes quickly. You will come out of the deep cleansing reaction feeling better than ever, having successfully rejuvenated the weakened areas of your body.*
How should I handle headaches, physical discomforts, pain, or emotional swings while doing the Colon Cleansing Kit?
At anytime and as often as necessary, you may take an enema, Prepare a tea for your enema or colema liquid. Use Peppermint tea, if you feel congested, depressed, or backed up. Use Chamomile tea, if you feel over excited, over emotional, or overly nervous. Boil a quart of purified water. Pour over eight tea bags of your choice. Let steep for 20 minutes. Remove tea bags. Be sure to cool to body temperature before using. You may add more pure cold water if needed. Now add your liquid tea to enema bag or colema bucket.
What is a liquids–only diet?
A liquids–only diet is not taking any solid foods or solid foods that have been liquefied, pureed, or blended. The liquids should be clear of any solid particles. This will allow the Toxin Absorber that is mixed with apple juice to bind easily to the surface of your intestines without the interference of any solid food covering the intestinal surface.
Liquids allowable are: pure water, strained herbal tea, strained organic apple juice and strained, organic vegetable broth. It is best to make your own fresh apple juice from organic, raw apples using a juicer. Juice in bottles or packages has undergone high heat and this destroys helpful enzymes, life force and reduces the level of vitamins. Still bottled, organic, 100% fruit juice is alright to use, if that is all that is available to you. Since it is not possible to juice your apples ahead of time to take with you to work or on-the-go because the juice oxidizes and turns brown within minutes; a possible solution is to take fresh juice whenever you are home and bottled/packaged juice whenever you leave home and are out and about.
If bottled/packaged juice is all that is available to you, it is better to cleanse with that than to not cleanse at all. Just be sure to avoid concentrated powders or bottled juice that only has a partial fruit juice content, contains sugar and/ or other additives and is not organically grown.
Will I be hungry all the time whilst on the Colon Cleansing Kit?
Taking Toxin Absorber five times a day will greatly reduce hunger pains. Also, you can have the alkaline, vegetable soup/broth (see page 24) or more apple juice if you need a little extra energy.
Do I fast for 21 days during the Internal Cleansing Kit?
No, you eat your regular diet. It is, however, recommended to make healthy diet changes, if you are ready to do so.
Do I take Toxin Absorber every night of the Internal Cleansing Kit?
No, you take Toxin Absorber only 14 nights out of a possible 24 nights. There are fourteen packets of Toxin Absorber in the Internal Cleansing Kit. Since you do not take Toxin Absorber every night, follow your Dosage Calendar for the Internal Cleansing Kit and take it on the day(s) indicated.
I feel bloated after drinking my Toxin Absorber. Why and is this OK?
The Toxin Absorber is a bulk fibre formula that draws liquids and toxins to itself.* You have seen how it begins to swell up after mixing with juice in your Shaker Jar. It continues this expansion in your stomach and intestines, drawing up toxins to it.
This produces a “full” sensation after drinking it. Because we have added a large, therapeutic dose of ginger root or peppermint leaf to the formula, this feeling dissipates quickly. Most do not experience any discomfort at all.
You will find that the ginger or peppermint also greatly enhances the flavour of the drink, making it pleasant to taste and swallow.
Can I exercise while doing the Colon Cleansing Kit?
If you are feeling good and strong, then exercise, but keep to an easy routine. Don’t do strenuous exercise while on the liquid diet. For example, walk, don’t run. Stretch, don’t do heavy lifting.
Can I use alcoholic beverages while cleansing?
It would be better if you didn’t. It won’t harm your cleansing, unless you drink too much, but then again it won’t help it either. It takes energy to cleanse and drinking alcohol will divert some of that energy away from cleansing. For optimum results do not use alcoholic beverages while cleansing.
I am on medication, can I fast and do the Colon Cleansing Kit?
We recommend if you intend to fast on liquids while doing the Colon Cleansing Kit™, you get an OK from your healthcare practitioner first; especially if you are on life saving medicines.
I am taking various supplements or medications now, should I stop them?
As a general rule of thumb, we recommend that you not take any other herbs, supplements, vitamins, minerals, OTC or recreational drugs while you are cleansing. Cleansing is an opportunity for the body to clean house; the least added to your diet, the more effective the cleansing. If, however, you feel intuitively you need to keep taking them, please follow your intuition; your own personal guide for what’s best for you.
If you are taking prescription drugs, it is better to wait until you have finished the course of your prescription before beginning your cleanse. If your prescription is needed for an ongoing, daily basis, please continue as prescribed and check the following list to see which drugs this cleansing program may affect.
I am sensitive to the alcohol found in extracts. Is there any other way to take your liquid formulas?
If you are sensitive to alcohol, you can place your dosage in a cup of hot water. Allow it to sit for 10–15 minutes and then take it. Much of the alcohol will evaporate. Placing your dosage in hot water and allowing it to sit should reduce alcohol content by at least a third. It may also be worth noting that our bodies naturally convert sugars to alcohol via the fermentation process in our stomachs as we digest our food. The amount of alcohol contained in a dose of our herbal extract is comparable to that of a ripe banana.
Is there anything I should do after I am done with the cleanse?
After completing the Colon Cleansing Kit we recommend taking the Internal Cleansing Kit for a complete cleansing of all your organs of detoxification. After completing the Internal Cleansing Kit, if you are in relatively good health, continue cleansing once a year, and talk with your health practitioner on how to get started on a good maintenance program.*
If you have severe health problems, cleansing two to three times a year for several years is recommended, along with any protocols your healthcare practitioner determines as necessary.
