A Naturopath can help you evaluate your
need for a detox and best frequency
depending on your genetic structure and
your present health circumstances.

DETOXIFYING SUPPLEMENTS
Even very healthy people might need a
complete and deep detox every now and
again... (which includes Repairing, nourishing,
replenishing... and cleansing...)

5 Habits to MAKE!
There is a tendency of relating DETOX
with a deep cleansing of the liver or gut
only.

However, DETOX means a profound
cleansing of the many systems in the body
as well as a super nourishment of the
entire body, especially the immune
system.

DETOXIFYING SUPPLEMENTS

depending on our genes, diet, life style,
gender and age.

produce less intestinal enzymes, so our
ability to absorb nutrients decline...

The gut contains around 11 trillion
bacteria, weighing a total of 1.5 kg!!!

Ideally, 70% should be probiotic bacteria

Usually it is the other way around...
DETOXIFYING SUPPLEMENTS
5 Habits to MAKE!
The presence of probiotic bacteria in the
gut discourages the growth of harmful
bacteria and also stimulate production of
