Also known as the Scandinavian detox diet plan, BioFirm, by manufacturer New Nordic, is a supplement tablet that contains ingredients designed to cleanse your intestines. The product has been available in Scandinavia since the 1990s, but as of 2010 it is not available directly to U.S. consumers except through third parties. By eliminating toxins, Biofirm claims to reduce bloating and help with weight loss in a more natural manner.
Dosing
The product's instructions say to take two tablets three times a day with meals. You should drink at least 1 liter of water per day, and follow this regimen for between two and four weeks, according to the New Nordic website. You should also cut back on processed foods, simple sugars and saturated fats while increasing organic food consumption. In addition, foods like onions, garlic, Brussels sprouts and broccoli are especially helpful to your body while undergoing this detoxification process.
Ingredients
The ingredients in BioFirm are also found in other detox diet supplements, according to Diet Blog Talk. The list includes ingredients such as: radix chichorii, citrus fruit pulp, urtica dioica extract, taraxacum officinale extract, citrus fibers, semen isphagula, asparagus officinalis extract, cunara scolymuys extract, apium graveolens xtract and thymus vulgaris extract.
Benefits
A benefit of the BioFirm detox plan is that it is simple to follow, according to a review by Diet Spotlight. Dieters just take the convenient pill and remember to eat and drink.
Warnings
You should not take BioFirm if you are pregnant, nursing or less than 18 years old. In addition, New Nordic says you should not take BioFirm if you have diabetes, kidney problems or take ACE inhibitors.
It is common to experience headaches, skin spots and increased bowel movements after beginning BioFirm. Drinking more water and resting can help with these symptoms.
Concerns
There are many reasons to be wary of BioFirm, according to Diet Spotlight's review. Not only is the product not easy to purchase in the U.S., its website does not offer a money-back guarantee and customer testimonials are limited at best. Also, there is a lack of clinical evidence supporting New Nordic's claims of weight loss.
