Detox Programmes
The most important step to take when you want to lose weight, gain optimal health, and reduce the risk of modern illnesses is to join one of the detox programmes offered by The Melrose Aesthetic Centre.
In the past a healthy balanced diet after a period of fasting on either fruit or water was suggested by many of the experts. The problem with this approach is that in many cases it contributes to the long list of health problems rather than addressing the toxin level in the body. Many of today’s toxins can only be removed through specific nutrients to assist the body in detoxifying. Detoxification is energy intensive and puts a severe metabolic strain on the body. It is thus extremely important to get specific nutrients while detoxifying. The UltraClear medical foods are recommended while you are busy with a ten day cleansing plan as they provide the specific nutrients, calories and fibre required to help the body cleanse itself.
Why Detox?
Disease is the body’s reaction to the toxin level in itself. Toxins cause cellular breakdown and illness in the body. As the cells become congested or filled with toxins from pesticides, preservatives in our food, medication, poison from cigarette smoke, toxic emissions, chlorinated water, caffeine overload, and more, disease in the body becomes more apparent. Symptoms of toxin build-up in the body include, but are not limited to:
- Allergies
- Colds and flu
- Fatigue
- Depression
- Headaches
- Backaches
- Constipation
- Lack of energy
- Lack of concentration
- Irritability
- Impotence and infertility
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Abdominal pains
- Poor immune system
- Poor sleeping patterns
- Poor memory
- Dermatitis
- Pregnancy problems
- Alzheimer’s Disease
- Parkinson’s Disease
- Chest pains
- Kidney problems
- Muscle and joint pains
- Dermatitis
There are many more illnesses and symptoms related to toxin build-up in the body. When the body cannot get rid of toxins anymore, they begin to build-up in the cells. This in turn is the cause for many of the illnesses. The first step in becoming healthy, lean and full of life is to join one of the acclaimed detox programmes offered by the Melrose Aesthetic Centre.
What is Detoxification?
Detoxification is the body’s way of getting rid of the toxins which should not be part of the healthy system. When undertaking detoxification however, you should consult with a trained physician as is available at The Melrose Aesthetic Centre. You will receive a detoxification questionnaire which has the symptoms divided into specific groups. This is specifically to access your exposure to external environmental toxins, as well as your ability to tolerate specific substances, and to assess your body’s pH balance.
Over the counter detox programmes can do more harm than good. Since the body needs the perfect balance to function optimally and thus healthy, you require the guidance of trained dieticians and physicians who will suggest the most suitable program for your specific detoxification needs.
The detox programmes are adapted to your specific situation and include vital nutrients and vitamins such as the correct balance of Vitamins A, B3, B6, and B12 as well as C and E. It also includes amino acids, and zinc to name but a few. A specific plan for detoxification will be provided and your health monitored throughout. Don’t become a victim of our polluted environment. Contact The Melrose Aesthetic Centre for an assessment and guidance.
