GWTP Pre-Program Detox

Is Your GI Toxic?

Pre-Program Detox

by Margy Squires
Everyone knows the often quoted adage, “all disease starts in the gut”. Credit for the saying goes to Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, some 2500 years ago. Amazingly it’s true. Scientists studying the GI microbiome are just beginning to understand the intricate GI workings and signaling network that apparently influences every other system in the body. Specifically, GI trouble affects nutrient absorption and immunity so no wonder that disease would start there. So it’s the first place your detox should start if your body needs help.

How do you know if your GI is toxic? Ask yourself these questions.

• Does your tummy balk at taking supplements?
• Do you often have trouble digesting foods? 
• Is your elimination regular every morning?
• Does your GI grumble and moan for no reason?
• Do you feel sluggish? Have poor energy? 
• Have aches & pains in muscles/joints? 
• Struggle with skin issues or unexplained rashes?
• Crave sugar?
• Have trouble losing or gaining weight?

You have more than 400 kinds of GI bacteria, not all “good”. Symptoms of a “bad” bacteria overgrowth or imbalance are: Candida. Leaky gut. Irritable bowel syndrome. Spastic bowel. Constipation. Diarrhea. Nutrient malabsorption that impacts most disorders. You cannot be well if your GI tract is un-well.

This detox requires only two products. Olive Leaf Extract to “clean” out the toxins (parasites, yeast, viruses, oh, my!) and David’s Probiotics™ to “replenish” the “good” bacteria that keeps your microbiome in balance and functional.

Use the handy chart below and follow the steps. You may feel a bit flu-like the first couple of days. It’s a good sign! Your body is “cleaning house”. Loose stools are your body’s way of “emptying the trash”. Just reduce your doses and proceed more slowly at your own pace. Remember to drink lots of water to help the detox process. Stay with it and soon you will agree with Hippocrates as you will feel so much better!
