During the Cleanse, your intake should consist of the following:
1. Freshly juiced, green vegetables – Kale, spinach, parsley, celery, cucumber, broccoli, wheat
grass, cabbage, barley grass, collard greens, okra, etc. If this is one’s only intake, drink 8-12, 8 oz. glasses per day, in addition to 64 oz. to one gallon of water. If using SuperGreens in addition to fresh juice, drink 2-3 glasses a day. If juice is not available, try the soup recipes listed below. It is vital that enough energy and nutrients are provided so that the body can heal itself. An example serving of juiced greens: 1 cucumber, 1 stalk celery, 1/3 bunch parsley, a handful of alfalfa sprouts, and some spinach or kale leaves.
2. InnerLight’s SuperGreens Powder (and Prime pH)- This green juice powder consists of 49
different vegetables, grasses and herbs, combined to increase energy, detoxify the system, decrease appetite, and strengthen immune function to prevent disease and illness. SuperGreens is highly alkalizing, a great source of vitamins and minerals each day. During a Cleanse, one should drink a minimum of 3 quarts of distilled water, a teaspoon of the powder in each quart per day. Another quart or more of pure water should be consumed each day, with additional SuperGreens added if desired. All water, even distilled or reverse-osmosis, should have Prime pH drops added to increase oxygen and alkalinity. Approximately 3 drops of Prime pH to 8 oz. water, 6:32 oz., 12:64 oz., and 24:1 gallon of water should be added. In summary, one should drink at least a gallon of water, adding at least three teaspoons of SuperGreens and 24 drops of Prime pH each day.
3. Raw, pureed soups- These soups help the body combat toxins and can be very anti-fungal.
Ingredients like garlic, onion, green vegetables, and vegetable broth are detoxifying and increase the effectiveness of the Cleanse. (Sample recipes follow) Raw soups supply energy in a form that is easy for the body to utilize; it doesn’t have to expend energy to obtain it during digestion. One to two bowls/day during a Cleanse is suggested.
4. Essential Oils- These high-quality oils may be added to juices, soups, or taken in gelcap
form. Among the most highly recommended are: Primrose, Flax Seed, Borage, Olive Oil, or
a blend such as Udo’s Choice, Perfected Oil Blend. About 2-3 Tbsp./day is recommended.
5. Nutritional Supplements- As previously mentioned, it is not absolutely necessary that one
take supplements during a Cleanse, but it is recommended. Dr. Young’s Complete Pack, which
contains the Balance Pack and Basics Pack, is available through InnerLight International. It contains various products, in capsule and liquid colloidal form, that will help to detoxify, as well as strengthen and build the system. Typically, one would simply follow the recommended dosage on each bottle, take until all capsules/liquid is gone. (Note: SuperGreens and Prime pH are included in the Balance Pack) Other than the products mentioned above, one may choose to take the vitamins/minerals one normally takes while doing the Cleanse. Liquid colloidals should be taken about a half of an hour before meals, while capsules can be taken at the same time as juices and raw soups.
A Typical Day on the Cleanse
7:00 a.m. 1 quart water with Prime pH and lemon juice
7:30 a.m. Liquid colloidal supplements
8:00 a.m. Freshly juiced greens and capsules
9 - 12:00 1 ½ quarts water with SuperGreens/Prime pH
12:30 p.m. Liquid colloidal supplements
1:00 p.m. Capsules with soup or juice
2 – 5:00 1 ½ quarts water with SuperGreens/Prime pH
5:30 p.m. Liquid colloidal supplements
6:00 p.m. Capsules with soup or juice
7 – 9:00 Water with Prime pH and lemon juice as desired
The previous schedule is just an example of what a typical day on the Cleanse might be like.
This model is given to help one understand how simple it is to consume all the water and liquids that the body requires in one day while doing a Cleanse. One needs to be sensible during this time; do not attempt to limit one’s intake too much. Hydration is essential.
Following are raw soup recipes taken from Shelley Young’s recipe book, Back to the House of Health. Generally, one to two bowls per day are recommended while on the Cleanse. However, if one is feeling lethargic, they are a good source of energy and may be increased as needed.
