Detox & What to Know

Don't be fooled--detox is actually a VERY exciting topic--because if you are experiencing any of these symptoms then it means these products ARE working...and undoing years of build-up and toxins in your body. I promise though, detox is only temporary and pushing through the symptoms are more than worth it.

Here are some of the most common symptoms of die off. Please know as a precautionary note, some of your old suppressed symptoms *may* reappear or escalate (many people never experience noticeable detox). Die off symptoms can consist of almost anything, but the most common scenario is that you will have an exaggeration of whatever type of symptoms that you already experience for the first week or two...

-brain fog

-poor concentration

-tightness in the chest

-heart palpitations

-fatigue

-muscle and joint pain

-headaches

-sore throat

-anxiety

-depression

-irritability

-crankiness

-diarrhea

-sinusitis

-itching

-constipation

-gas and/or other gastrointestinal distress

-nausea

-dizziness

-feeling sick all over

-intense cravings for sweets and carbohydrates

-cravings for alcohol

-you may even feel like you're drunk, because the yeast puts off alcohol.

My personal detox story includes fatigue and headache. However, once the headaches began, I was a little excited to know that change was indeed coming in my body. They came on most evenings for about 2 weeks and vanished after about 10 days. The fatigue I'd lived with for years already so I didn't even notice that in hindsight.

We need to really learn how to speak to people about these detox reactions so they stick with the products. I can say with certainty that the benefits of pushing through detox are worth it.

We MUST eliminate Candida and cleanse our liver to live optimally. The imbalance creates inflammation in our bodies and all of the symptoms noted above and more.

Detox Tips:

1. Dandelion and Milk Thistle Tea to support the liver. Add Stevia to it because it can be a little bitter.

2. WATER!

3. Lemons aid in detoxification. https://draxe.com/benefits-of-lemon-water/

4. Increase vitamin C. "VITAMIN C, or ascorbic acid, aids the detoxification process in several ways, one being that it recycles other antioxidants like vitamin E."

5. Go SLOW on the products. You have nothing to prove and you have all the time in the world. One ProBio5 at night is all some people can handle.

6. Increase intake green leafy vegetables or take a green algae supplement for heavy metal detox. "What we want from green veggies is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll rids the body of environmental toxins, heavy metals, herbicides, and pesticides. Plexus also offers an incredible greens drink to fortify your veggie intake.

Why do people get headaches or stomach aches during detox / die-off?

Head and stomach aches can be for one of three reasons:

1. Dehydration. The products are detoxifying you and water is imperative for flushing your system. Lack of adequate water will always cause head and stomach aches.

2. Detox symptom. Unfortunately, these are very common symptoms associated with cleansing the body. Google commone detox symptoms.

3. Withdrawal. A lot of us stop drinking soda or caffeine when we start the products because we no longer crave them. Our body goes through withdrawal from these items.

What if someone gets a rash during detox / die-off?

Serrapeptase lowers histamine responses. Ease capsules have that in them, and Ease is an excellent companion to Triplex and an incredible stand alone product. It's an all natural anti-inflammatory that helps with detox symptoms as well as post work out aches and pains.

How does a Candida yeast die-off cause a rash?

Well, first of all the yeast is going to find a hospitable environment to live in. If the small intestines is full of antifungals from our Probio5 then OF COURSE it is going to find other places to habitat in the body. Some people have actually had yeast grow in their mouth during die-off. To make this a more gentle experience back down to 1 Probio5 (this person may be on only one for months!)

Yeast can also live in your lymph nodes too! A lot of us think of lymph nodes as only being in the neck. No! They are everywhere----groin, legs, abdomen, by your collar bones and sinuses. Even under your jawline.

What type of people experience more severe die-off?

Usually those people that have used antibiotics, steroids and birth control.

If symptoms are intense, what should I do?

Take it down to only 1 ProBio5 and 1 BioCleanse per night. Drink fresh, CLEAN water* (not chlorinated or fluoridated), and physically move more to get those lymphatics pumping. Your liver loves it when you sweat and sweating is an incredible natural detoxifier. Remember that the liver takes a beating during detoxification! The liver needs to be supported and the best way to do this is to incorporate milk thistle and dandelion root. You can take a supplement for this or buy tea with these ingredients. Detox teas (Yogi and Get Clean teas are great), drinking half your body weight in ounces of water per day (or more), adding lemon to your water, adding Vitamin C to your intake, and Epsom salt baths are all great ideas.
