Cleansing products provide herbs, fibers and other substances to purify and to remove toxins from the body. Products range in cleansing duration from a few days to an entire month. These leading body cleansers are intended for seven-day programs. Cleansers are not for everyone and may contain powerful natural laxatives and dietary fibers that may increase regularity. Always consult with your doctor before beginning any cleanse program.
Perfect Cleanse
Garden of Life's Perfect Cleanse provides a three-part formula to cleanse the entire body. Garden of Life claims that this cleanse purifies the body by capturing and removing toxins. Garden of Life says that, unlike some products, the Perfect Cleanse is gentle enough to allow you to detoxify your body without changing your lifestyle. The Purify formula contains milk thistle, yarrow, aged garlic, chlorella, dandelion and broccoli extracts. Take three capsules 30 minutes before dinner. The Capture formula includes such dietary fibers as organic flaxseed, pea hull and chia seed, as well as organic barley and alfalfa leaf. Mix one scoop with 8 oz. of water and drink 30 minutes after dinner. The Remove formula contains epsom salts, fenugreek seed, peppermint leaf, aloe vera leaf, ginger root and fennel seed. Take three of these capsules before bedtime. Perfect Cleanse formulas contain no gluten, nuts, soy, eggs, dairy or stimulant laxatives.
The Cleaner
The Century Systems Cleaner comes in both men's and women's formulas and claims to provide a powerful, comfortable and fast all-in-one cleansing formula. The Cleaner contains powerful herbal ingredients such as ginger root, senna leaf, aloe vera, yellow dock, dandelion root, cloves, black walnut bark, milk thistle, schizandra berry, cat's claw bark and many others. In addition, this product includes cleansing fibers such as fibersol-2, oat bran, soy fiber, apple pectin, acacia gum and psyllium husk. The men's formula contains saw palmetto berry extract, while the women's includes chasteberry and dong quai for hormonal balance. Century Systems recommends taking four capsules in the evening on the first day, and four capsules in the mornings and evenings of Days Two through Seven. You should drink eight to 10 glasses of water per day. If after three days, you do not achieve two to three bowel movements per day, you may increase the dosage two capsules per serving, up to a maximum of eight capsules per serving.
24-Hour Inner Cleanse
Garden Greens 24-Hour Inner Cleanse combines two formulas that offer round-the-clock cleansing support for a seven-day duration. The daytime formula includes herbs such as dandelion root, milk thistle and uva ursi to help eliminate impurities and toxins from your body and organ systems. The nighttime formula contains dietary fibers from psyllium husk, oat bran, apple pectin, rice fiber and acacia. Dietary fibers help sweep toxins from the body and cleanse the digestive system, according to the book "The Abs Diet," by David Zinczenko. The evening formula provides the probiotics, or friendly bacteria, known as Lactobacillus acidophilus, plantarum and casei, as well as Bifidobacterium bifidum. In addition, the night formula contains powerful natural laxatives such as cascara sagrada and rhubarb root, which may cause or worsen diarrhea or other gastrointestinal discomforts. The directions suggest taking nine of the daytime tablets daily, or three at each of your main meals. Take three of the evening tablets before going to bed.
