HERBAL DETOXIFICATION
The Ultimate Cleanse - the finest herbal cleansing program
available. There is nothing else like it.
Some people say I have a good diet. My bowel functions
daily. Im already taking some of those herbs. Its not my
intestine thats the problem, Ive already had a colonic. Ive
already tried herbal cleansing etc, etc. Believe me, weve
heard them all.
This product stands alone as far as a total body flushout goes. Nothing we have seen on the market is even
in the same ball park. Its not only what you take, its
exactly how you take it. The Ultimate Cleanse has
been carefully formulated from traditional American
Indian methods and tailored to our modern lifestyle.
Nothing else contains the amount of herbs used in The
Ultimate Cleanse. It is no wonder impressive results are
achieved with this program.
The Ultimate Cleanse
How and why

You are probably aware that your intestines act to break
down food, absorb nutrients and eliminate waste. What is
lesser known is that your intestines maintain fluid electrolyte
balance, and lymphatic drainage. This means that when your
bowels become unclean and partially blocked, toxins begin
to circulate in the body. This happens to almost everybody
sooner or later.
Better than fasting

Although partial fasting is involved in The Ultimate Cleanse,
fasting alone cannot achieve these excellent results. Fasting
can leave you feeling fatigued and toxic. This occurs because
your bowels are not cleared by fasting and in fact can
become dry, actually causing more compaction, and more
toxin accumulation. Flushing of your body only occurs when
special herbs are consumed in conjunction with fasting.
Red meats do not digest easily and refined grains leave a

sticky glutinous residue on your intestinal wall. Therefore a
gradual plaque builds up, just as it does on our teeth with
the modern diet. Also, with continual sugar, alcohol, coffee,
fries , cheese and refined foods, your intestinal flora can lose
control of the internal environment. Thus, parasites, bacteria
and other detrimental organisms can take hold. Eventually,
over time, there can accumulate a putrid, toxic mass in the
lower intestines. This may result in the following:
an over-population of harmful micro-organisms
reduced immune system function
poor nutrient absorption
damaged lining of the digestive tract, sometimes
leading to serious conditions such as Irritable Bowel
Syndrome, chronic constipation, diverticulitis or even
bowel cancer.
A high level of nutrition is also provided with The Ultimate

Cleanse diet, during the fasting stage. This ensures your
energy stays high and toxin elimination is speedy. The
shakes, juices and supplements keep hunger under control.
The process of cleansing in a nutrient-rich environment
allows rapid healing to occur at both organ and cellular
levels.
The herbal combinations in The Ultimate Cleanse work to

improve digestive secretions, such as bile and enzymes,
increase bowel transit time, and speed up your metabolism.
Your liver and kidneys are cleansed and their functions
stimulated. Over the first few days your bowel motions
become much more frequent and of larger volume. In the
next couple of days faecal impactions and plaque begin to
move, usually causing bowel motions of mis-shapen darker
material. Finally, a long term positive effect is achieved by
completely restoring bowel flora into balance with a high
quality acidophilus or probiotic product.
Results
I cannot promise any cure. The idea behind herbal medicine
is to cleanse and build. By providing a healthy, clean,
nutrient-rich environment your body has a vastly increased
potential to heal itself. Some common problems which have
responded well to The Ultimate Cleanse include:
Acne, allergies, arthritis, bloating, blood sugar problems,
boils, candida, asthma, constipation, eczema, fatigue,
gas, gout, headaches, heartburn, high cholesterol,
indigestion, irritable bowel, lazy bowel, memory
loss, mucus congestion, obesity, oedema, parasites,
psoriasis, sinusitis, skin rashes, toxaemia.
The three Golden detox rules
Do not eat too much at once.
Chew your food extra well.
If you have diabetes or candida, avoid too many sweet
fruits and fruit juice. Eat pears and apples in moderation.
What does it do?

The Ultimate Cleanse contains 14 highly effective herbs, to
be taken at different times over several days.
New Zealands finest herbal internal cleanse
Step 1 Compacted fecal matter and mucus from years of
eating unhealthy processed foods are softened by powerful
herbs and flushed out of the entire 7 metre length of your
intestines. You could be pleasantly suprised at what comes
out. Parasites are also killed and passed out. Weight loss
normally occurs.
Step 2 Wholesome herbs and healing foods detoxify and
cleanse your liver, kidneys and lymphatic system.
Step 3 When The Ultimate Cleanse has detoxified and
cleansed your body, your bowel flora is completely restored
into optimum balance over the following week with billions of
high quality Lactobacillus acidophilus, live probiotic bacteria
which are supplied in a sealed sachet with your cleanse kit.
By this time you should be feeling like a new person.
Easy-to-understand instruction book

You get an easy-to-read booklet with a list of healing foods
you are to eat during the cleanse. You are also given tasty
breakfast, lunch and evening meal suggestions and recipes
for each day of your cleanse.
The best on the market
The Ultimate Cleanse formulator and medical herbalist,
Brett Elliott says, Thousands of people have experienced
life changing results with The Ultimate Cleanse.
This product stands alone as far as a total body cleanse and
flush-out goes. Nothing I have seen on the market is even in
the same ball park.
This powerful cleansing formulation has been inspired by
the great pioneers in the herbal cleansing field Dr Bernard
Jensen and Dr Richard Anderson and also Dr Sandra Cabot,
along with traditional American Indian Dr Allen Taflows herbal
cleansing regimen. It is not the cheapest herbal cleanse on
the market, but it is 100% effective, as no shortcuts have
been taken to save cost. It is very well priced for what it does.
Similar cleanse systems can cost nearly twice as much.
Why do I need an intestinal and liver cleanse?

Our intestines absorb nutrients from our food and eliminate
waste. However meats, refined grains and processed foods
leave a sticky glutinous residue on our intestinal wall and
gradually a plaque builds up, just as it does on our teeth.
Over the years we can accumulate a putrid toxic mass in
the intestines, often compacted and caught in the folds of
the colon.
Also with continual sugar, alcohol, coffee, fries and cheese,
our intestinal flora often get out of balance, especially after
antibiotics. Parasites can then take hold and our immune
system and liver and kidneys become severely overloaded,
allowing toxins to circulate in our body. This happens to
almost everybody sooner or later. Typically we feel listless
and negative and the foundation is laid for disease, especially
cancer, heart disease and arthritis.
You could be amazed at what comes out of you.
Traditionally these problems have been treated with
an enema. However this unpleasant and embarrassing
procedure only cleanses the lower bowel which is about 2
metres long, leaving the much longer (about 6 metres) and
narrower small intestine where nutrients are absorbed from
our food, untouched. Also untouched are the vital organs of
liver and kidneys.
Ginger Root
Cayenne Pepper
Barley Grass
How The Ultimate Cleanse works

The powerful herbal combinations include wormwood,
cascara, psyllium, fennel, cayenne pepper and ginger.
During The Ultimate Cleanse they are taken in multiple
capsule form and work to soften compacted faecal matter, strip
away plaque build-up, kill parasites and detrimental bacteria.
The healing food you are restricted to for the course, and
the wholesome herbs in The Ultimate Cleanse ensure
that your liver and kidneys are cleansed and their
functions stimulated.
We have prepared a weekly shopping list for all the foods
contained here in our recipes. If you are unable to get any of
these foods just get extra of what you can.
What happens during The Ultimate Cleanse?
Over the first few days your bowel motions become more
frequent and of larger volume. In the next couple of days
fecal impactions and plaque begin to be eliminated, causing
bowel motions of mis-shapen darker material. During the
cleanse your energy may actually increase. However for
some people, energy may be low on day 3 or 4 of the 5
and 10 day programs. Be prepared for this possibility. This
is a day to relax and let your detoxification process unfold.
Typically you will also lose 2 to 3 kilograms a week during
The Ultimate Cleanse. Usually you will also lose a desire for
unhealthy foods and sweets and enjoy natural wholesome
foods. These changes can be life-long for some people.
Can I continue to work or travel?

Yes certainly, as long as you are not too far from a toilet. You
could be passing bowel motions several times a day.
The Ultimate Cleanse is an ideal time to quit these habits.
However if severe withdrawal symptoms occur, do not
overstress yourself, just cut back to the best of your ability.
You will still benefit greatly from the Cleanse.
Will I feel uncomfortable in my body?
You can experience temporary discomfort as lodged
materials shift in your body, however this is normally relieved
by the next bowel motion. If you feel bloated, peppermint tea
gives great relief.
What if I feel sick on the program?
Some people have experienced nausea, vomiting or
diarrhoea at the beginning of the program. If this occurs, it
indicates a serious plaque or toxin build-up. Stop the program
immediately and start again very slowly. You are better to try
the diet for 2 weeks before beginning the program and then
try the 25 day plan.
Should I alter my prescription drugs?
Keep taking any current medications and consult your doctor
about any changes. Digestive drugs should not be needed
after this cleanse. See your doctor.
What foods am I allowed?

Most vegetables and fruits, yoghurt, vegetable soups, fruit and
vegetable juices, fruit and vegetable salads, avocados, cold
pressed oils e.g. olive oil, brown rice, herbal teas, natural spices
and herbs.
PREPARATION Stage
An intestinal cleanse needs some preparation. I remind
you that if you have any serious doubt about your health
condition, it is recommended that you obtain your doctors
approval to undergo this herbal cleanse.
Below is a list of dietary changes which need to be followed
for three to seven days before beginning The Ultimate
Cleanse. The main thing to remember is: eliminate starches,
processed foods and stick mainly to fresh fruits, vegetables
and juices, smoothies, soups and yoghurt.
Foods to completely avoid
All refined, processed, and packaged foods.
Breads, pasta, and other wheat-containing products.
All grains, seeds, crackers and snack bars.
All meats, including chicken.
All fried foods.
Eggs, nuts and baked beans.
Sweets, chocolate and soft drinks.
Bananas
Potatoes
Foods to be eaten very moderately (if at all)
Root vegetables (except potatoes).
Brown rice.
Steamed or tinned fish.
Hummus or tofu.
Cheese.
Pickles such as olives, gherkins, onions.
Supermarket juices.
Foods to be eaten freely
All fresh fruits (except bananas).
Raw vegetables.
Vegetable soups (homemade).
Diluted fruit juices (homemade).
Vegetable juices (homemade).
Unsweetened yoghurt.
Herbal teas.
Cayenne, garlic and ginger.
Culinary herbs.
Pure water (2 litres daily).
10
An ideal kick start to The Ultimate Cleanse is half a teaspoon

of Epsom Salts in water twice daily during the three days
of preparation. You are now ready for the cleansing stage.
See the dose plan on page 16 and follow the recipes from
page 19 onwards.
11
Take fruit for lunch and buy vegetables and fresh fruits for
juicing. You can have extra yoghurt and olive oil or cream to
keep energy up.
Taking the herbs

I have tried to keep it as easy as possible while ensuring
the best of results. Follow your common sense when taking
the remedies. Dont worry if you miss something, you can
just take it later without a problem. Continue with your
normal routine, including work (unless very physical). You
can use the juices to swallow capsules. You dont have
to follow our food and juice recipes to the letter and if you
really get hungry, have some yoghurt and a piece of fruit
or an avocado. Extra olive oil on your salad is good for
energy also.
Be certain you have eliminated ALL starches,

ALL meat and ALL processed foods. Eat mainly
fresh fruits, vegetables and juices, soups and
unsweetened yoghurt.
Note: Gentlelax - It is best to empty the Gentlelax capsules

and mix the powder into a glass of water. Otherwise you
should always take the Gentlelax with at least a 200 ml glass
of water.
It is best to gradually bring your diet into line with this

regimen over a few days. First eliminate the refined foods
(including bread, pasta, biscuits, cake and pastry) and fried
foods. The next day eliminate meats and eggs. The next day
drop the nuts and beans. This is the time stock up with fresh
vegetables for making soups, plenty of garlic, chilli, and
spices. See page 37 for a suggested shopping list.
Once you have been on this diet for at least 3 days (preferably
a week) you are ready to begin taking the herbs. From this
point on you will need to follow the diet as strictly as you can.
See Easy detox recipe suggestions on page 19.

13
Shakes & Smoothies (very important)

Shakes and smoothies are a key part of this program because
they are designed to encourage digestive function and
maintain energy levels. Below is a list of especially beneficial
ingredients which should be used in your smoothies. Make a
large 500ml smoothie every morning during your cleanse.
- 2 cups of milk (only if you can get raw milk directly from
the farm), or purified water.
- Organic acidophilus yoghurt (include 1 cup per smoothie).
Remember, yoghurt is OK for lactose intolerance.
- High quality, non-denatured whey protein powder
(2 heaped dessert spoons)
- Pineapples, paw paw and mangoes. High in digestive
enzymes
- Extra acidophillus or probiotic powder (not essential, but
does assist)
The reason a lot of digestive problems occur is due to
insufficient intestinal bacteria and living flora. Many microorganisms assist with digestion and when this is out of
balance the whole body suffers. Conditions like irritable
bowel, colitis, Crohns, celiac, diverticulitis and food
intolerances can be relieved by restoring this balance. The
smoothies may initially cause a bloating effect as they reestablish this balance. Try adding a little cinnamon or a few
fennel seeds to the blender if this occurs. You should feel
very energized and enjoy the whole smoothie experience.
Caffeine and Alcohol withdrawal
Caffeine is found in tea, coffee, chocolate and some
soft drinks. When you stop taking caffeine or alcohol
your body may experience one or more of the following
withdrawal symptoms headaches, migraine, nausea,
vomiting, low energy, or a general unwell feeling.
I recommend that during The Ultimate Cleanse, if it
places extra unnecessary stress on your body, that you
do not completely stop coffee or alcohol (unless this is
your desire). Just reduce to 1 or 2, 200ml servings per
day. This will not interfere with the programs success.
Remember the three Golden rules
1. Do not eat too much at once.
2. Chew your food extra well.
3. People with diabetes or candida, avoid too many
sweet fruits and fruit juices. Eat pears and apples
in moderation.

Easy Breakfasts
EASY DETOX RECIPE SUGGESTIONS
Easy detox Recipe suggestions

Juices
Delicious juice combinations could contain the following, in
this order of preference. Try not to combine fruit and vegetable
juices. They digest better separately. Beetroot, carrot, apple,
prune, orange, grape, grapefruit, lemon, tomato, pineapple,
feijoa. All of these juices can be combined with black pepper
and or chilli pepper which aid peristaltic action (intestinal
motility). You may find single juices are easier to digest and
add more variety. Perfect for a quick energy boost.
Yoghurt smoothies
This is a great way to start your day. Just take your
favourite fruit (but not bananas - too starchy) and fruit
juice, add some yoghurt or raw organic milk (soy milk
or rice milk preferred), a pinch of cinnamon and blend
until smooth. Throw in some barley grass powder for
more energy.
Fruit salads
Try combining different fruits with plain unsweetened
yoghurt. You can include oranges, pears, nectarines, plums,
peaches, pineapple, kiwifruit, apples, mangoes, cherries,
prunes, apricots. Remember: not bananas (mentioned
above).
18
19
JUICES
Apple and carrot juice

Simply delicious, this juice is one of the most refreshing
tasting juices we recommend.
4 carrots
4 apples
Wash and chop the carrot and apples if necessary, to fit in
the juicer. Juice and drink immediately. If you like celery add
two sticks. A little lemon juice prevents these juices from
going brown.
Raspberry and peach juice

Raspberry and peach juice is a thick, sweet, restorative
juice. It is particularly good if you are over-tired or anaemic.
If you find it too thick, add an apple or water.
1 small punnet of raspberries
2 peaches
Wash all the fruit and stone the peaches. Juice and drink
immediately.
Kiwifruit and pineapple juice

Wash the tomatoes and cut them in half , if necessary, to fit
in the juicer. Juice and drink immediately.
Mango tango

4 tablespoons of pineapple juice, honey to taste (optional)
Peel the mango and the pineapple and cut them into cubes,
discarding the pineapple core. De-stalk the strawberries.
Pour the pineapple juice over the fruit and leave to soak for
30 minutes. If the fruit is ripe this should sweeten it enough.
If it is too tart for your taste, add a little honey.

garlic and lay onion rings over the fish. Squeeze one half
of the lemon and spoon some of the oil over the top. Place
under the grill. Serve with a salad.

MY EASY TO SHOP - CHECK LIST

More juice options
Juice combinations could contain the following, in this order
of preference. Try not to combine fruit and vegetable juices:
beetroot, carrot, apple, orange, grape, grapefruit, lemon,
tomato, pineapple, feijoa. All of these juices can be combined
with black pepper and or chilli pepper if desired. These aid
peristaltic action. You may find single juices are easier to
digest and add more variety. You may wish to check out your
nearest library for books with juicing recipes.
Protein shakes
This is a great way to start your day. Just take your favourite
fruit (sorry no bananas as they are too starchy) and fruit
juice, add some yoghurt or raw organic milk, soy or rice milk,
a pinch of cinnamon. Add 2 heaped dessertspoons of good
quality non-denatured whey protein powder (sugar free) and
blend until smooth. Throw in some barley grass powder for
more energy. This is an excellent blood sugar stabilizer and
really helps keep your energy high during the cleanse.
More fruit salads
Try combining different fruit and adding yoghurt. You
can include oranges, pears, nectarines, plums, peaches,
pineapple, kiwifruit, apples, mangoes, cherries, prunes,
apricots, strawberries, raisins, tamarillos. Do not add
bananas.

TOXIC MATTER
- Move towards more vegetable foods and vegetable

protein sources such as beans, lentils, dahl, tofu, hummus,
chickpeas, corn and brown rice. This should ideally be the
cornerstone of your diet. Base all your meals around a
good protein source. (Vegetarians are known to live 20%
longer and have 20% more stamina than meat eaters).
Testimonials welcome
We always welcome testimonials and even photographs if
you feel enthusiastic.
- Eat light fruit and salad foods when moving fast, ie, at work
or on the road. Save the heavier foods for when you have a
chance to rest. Avoid eating under stress or in a rush.
Follow up important
Now that you have thoroughly cleansed your liver, kidney and
bowels you need to reinstate your bowel flora. Buy one litre
of the best plain, unsweetened acidophilus yoghurt you can
find in the supermarket. Take four tablespoons of this with 2
of your acidophilus capsules every night until finished.
- Include lots of herbs and spices in the diet. These are

highly medicinal and are missing from most western diets.
Herbs are very beneficial for long term health. Try basil,
cayenne, coriander, chilli, curry, cinnamon, ginger, garlic,
mixed herbs, thyme and turmeric.
Follow up diet
Once you have completed this stage of the program you
have completely cleansed your body and the real results will
begin to show. What you do from this point on will determine
how long term the results will be. It is important over the
following week to be very careful about what you eat. I
recommend that you reverse the process of going onto The
Ultimate Cleanse program, one step at a time. Go through
the foods, gradually introducing one at a time and enjoy
the new taste experience. Your diet may never completely
return to the old ways. Food intolerances should now be
gone or easier to identify. Avoid these foods for a while and
give your intestinal walls some time off. This is the general
type of diet recommended, although it is a very basic guide.
38
Eat only when you are hungry

- Avoid refined starchy carbohydrates like white flour and
sugar, too much potato, chips, bread, cakes, biscuits,
buns, pasta, pastry, etc.
Clearances from the body similar to large unshapely, odd

coloured bowel motions may well occur. This begins for most
people around day three of the program. You may notice
the odd shape of the faecal matter. This is where it has
become lodged within the folds of your intestine. You may
notice the dark colour. This occurs when all bile pigments
have been re-absorbed by the body and putrefaction takes
place. This is common in the western diet, which is high in
refined foods. The stress levels of our fast paced lives, often
cause digestion to take back stage and therefore digestion
becomes inefficient. You should clear all this material from
your body during this program. Occasionally, some people
may need a second program to gain total clearance. But this
is rare and normally a repeat program in six months followed
by an annual cleanse does the complete job.
- Eat only whole foods (fresh fruits and vegetables) and

completely avoid refined products. They have little nutrition
and tend to bind and inhibit digestion.
Maintenance
Repeat The Ultimate Cleanse every year for optimum health.
Even after cleansing and maintaining a healthy diet, it may
still be difficult to avoid some kind of build up. Ideally, for
optimum health you could just have juices for a couple of
days each month and do The Ultimate Cleanse at least once
every year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1.
What

can I eat if I get hungry? Try yoghurt, a
spoonful of olive oil or cream, a piece of avocado or
fruit. Refer to the food guide.
2.
W
hat can I eat if I go out? Stick to the fruits or salads
for snacks and drink juices. Refer to the food guide.
3.
C
an I go to work or travel? Yes certainly, so long as
you dont go too far from a toilet. If at work you need to
be able to break for the toilet on short notice.
4.
5.

If you are a regular daily drinker or smoker then I
recommend cutting back to the best of your ability,
or ideally stopping completely. However, if severe
headaches occur, you are better off to indulge a little
rather than over-stress yourself. The Ultimate Cleanse
is an ideal time to quit these habits and detoxify.
S
hould I alter my prescription drugs? You should
keep taking any current medications and consult your
doctor about any changes. Some digestive drugs may
not be needed after this cleanse. See your doctor.
6. W
hat if I experience bloating and/or constipation?
You can experience temporary discomfort when
lodged materials shift in the body, however this is
normally relieved by the next bowel motion. If bloating
and/or pain occurs for more than 24 hours: Cease
the remedies until this subsides; take 1/2 teaspoon
of Epsom Salts in water, 2 to 3 times in 24 hours;
peppermint, chamomile and ginger teas may help.
9. Will I experience any headaches? Not normally, but it can

happen if you are detoxifying drugs or chemicals. Take a
pinch of Epsom salts in a glass of water twice daily and rub
some peppermint essential oil into the temples (avoid the
eyes). Drink lots of water and breathe deeply as much as
possible. It should pass. If you are prone to migraines then
pain medications are OK.
10. How often can I do The Ultimate Cleanse? Once or
twice a year. It all depends on lifestyle and diet. The less
starchy, processed and refined food you eat, the longer
you can wait.

7. W
hat can I do if I get uncomfortable? The best
remedy is peppermint tea, although chamomile, fennel
and lavender teas are also effective. Try an Epsom
salts bath (4-6 cups) or a massage with lavender, clove
or nutmeg oils. You should not normally experience
prolonged or severe discomfort. The program should be
stopped if this occurs, and resumed later.
8. C
an I stop and start? Yes you can manage your own
cleanse schedule. Start at half the dose after a 24
hour rest period for the first day, and then resume the
program. It is just a matter of time for some people.
Stick with it.

TESTIMONIES
- Following my first cleanse I lost a staggering 22lbs and
after graphing my progress I lost another 14lbs on my
second cleanse. I was very overweight prior to the cleanses
and can emphatically state that I felt marvellous following
each one. With the second cleanse I felt a more spiritual
cleanse as well as the other great benefits: weight loss,
toxic clearance etc. Again many thanks for the support.
Alan.
- A friend purchased The Ultimate Cleanse for me a few
months ago, and I havent looked back! My headaches
have disappeared, feeling fantastic. Thank you. Nicole.
- Throughout the years I have done several different
cleansing programs. Though this was still hard work
(getting through those early cravings for forbidden food)
it was the easiest of all cleanses that I have tried, yet the
results were rewarding. At the end my thinking was clearer,
my energy had returned and healthy eating habits had
been re-established. I no longer craved those unhealthy
foods that I knew I shouldnt be eating...which makes me
realise that its time to do it again! Janet.
- WOW ! Words cannot describe the results I achieved
from the Ultimate Cleanse! I have suffered from constant
bloating, constipation, fatigue and headaches from my
early teens. My weight was a constant battle and many
foods made me feel bloated and constipated. I resorted to
laxatives which eventually through constant use, no longer
worked for me but instead made my problem worse! I
tried everything over the years and even tried cleanses of
other brands which did not seem to help either. I visited
Brett Elliott at The Herbalist and he put me onto The
Ultimate Cleanse program. I completed The Ultimate
Cleanse first with wonderful results! For the first time in
my life, my stomach is flat and I now know what foods
I can and cant eat to prevent constipation and bloating.
I now complete the Ultimate Cleanse once a year and
have recommended it to many of my friends, its the best
cleanse on the market! Thank you so much Brett and the
team at The Herbalist! Karen.

- I was diagnosed with chemical poisoning and insufficient

liver function. I did The Ultimate Cleanse and I think that
was the major contributing factor to my recovery because
I felt better straight afterwards. It got my body working
properly again and made me aware of my eating habits
which have changed ever since. Lewis.
- Just wanted to say that I have done The Ultimate Cleanse.
I finished the weekend 3 kgs lighter (put 2kg back on over
the following weeks), but felt like I had been for a spring
clean on my body. By the end of the weekend I felt lighter
and my energy levels had increased. A brilliant way to
start the new year, and I am aiming to do another Ultimate
Cleanse in the next few months, to start summer off with
a spring clean.The instructions were great. I was able to
email questions, and had answers that were prompt and
easy to understand. I recommend the Ultimate Cleanse as
a start to a healthier outlook. Lisa.
- After I spent 2 years with a gastroenterologist for my
irritable bowel syndrome with little or no result I took The
Ultimate Cleanse. Within a week I had lost 10kg in weight
and felt my energy return. I now have less pain and bloating
and have been absolutely amazed at the results. Brian.
- After suffering for over 20 years with Ankylosing Spondylitis
and calcification (a form of painful rheumatism) with
cramping and tightness in the chest, I tried The Ultimate
Cleanse. In just five days I was left stunned at the material
that left my body. It looked like it had been there all my life
and smelt like toxic diesel fumes. My pain has now ceased
and I put it down to the Ultimate Cleanse. Paul.
We would love to hear your testimony.
