The nutritional cleanse is based around liquid meals – that provide proteins, fibre, vitamins and minerals. Added in to this are a multi vitamin and mineral or supplement that supports biotransformation in the liver, essential fats such as omega 3, essential amino acids, and fibre. In the UK we are very polluted with xenoestrogens from plastics, pesticides, industrial chemicals and personal care products so I would then orientate the cleanse to detoxify oestrogen such as using DIM, calcium d glucurate and sulphurophane. Finally supporting sleep is extremely important, as this is when a lot of the detoxification occurs. Using amino acids, herbs and magnesium to aid sleep works well.
Here is a 7 day oestrogen orientated cleanse that one of my clients did. The morning of the cleanse she was 67.8kg at 17.8% body fat and had a 32 inch waist.

This client took part in light exercise through the week, predominantly focussed on stretching and corrective exercises for a low back problem that she had otherwise training should not create lactate. During the cleanse you are also allowed to eat an unlimited amount of 1 type of green organic vegetable a day such as spinach or broccoli and from day 4 she started to eat whole grain rice or quinoa with the vegetables. She also took a 20 minute sauna every day during the cleanse to add detoxification.
For the first 2-3 days of the cleanse the client did complain of being very tired and having headaches. I believe this was due to the detoxification process up regulating and the amount of toxins passing through the system. She also complained of being hungry, but after day 3 she felt more energetic and was not hungry. I believe this is a much safer way to detox and lose weight and it works – after 7 days my client was 66.1kg and 15.8% body fat. That’s 1.7kg of fat lost in a week. Her tummy was still 32 inches.
The day after the cleanse the client started an elimination diet which was a low carb diet with plenty of vegetables and 2 pieces of fruit a day. The elimination diet is gluten, dairy, processed sugar, processed foods, alcohol and stimulant free. You should eat a good amount of protein during the elimination diet and keep taking a base of supplements such as 2 medical food drinks a day, fish oil, HCL, a multi and all the oestrogen detox supplements. 1 week later the client was 64.7kg, 15.6% body fat and had a 30-inch waist. At the end of the 2 week elimination diet the client was 64.5kg, 14.9% body fat and 29 inch waist.
This is pretty dramatic for 3 weeks of cleansing and good nutrition, this client was already fairly lean, just imaging the kind of results that would of happened if she was overweight or obese!
