PREVENT: 10-Day Advanced Whole Body Detox

 

Do you experience constipation, IBS, chronic fatigue, acid reflux, stomach pain, insomnia or skin and hair problems? Do you wake up in the morning and feel like you came back from the late party, even though went to bed at 10 o'clock? Have headaches become a "normal" phenomenon in your life? Do you roar like a tiger at your husband and kids and start crying without any obvious reason? Does your face look like a pepperoni pizza, all covered with pimples and boils? Do you "catch" every bug flying around and start sneezing as soon as the first apple tree starts blooming in spring?

When you become cleaner, your mind becomes sharper, your body becomes younger, your emotions become more stable. Your sleep is more peaceful, and you feel energized and restored. Your taste buds clear, your cravings for unhealthy substances diminish, and you find a preference for healthy foods.

Your skin becomes hydrated, leathery smooth and pinkish in color; breath sweet and fresh; and the belly more flat. Your immunity gets stronger, which means higher resistance to bugs. Headaches and painful menses become a history. You become more yourself and start realizing that having pain is a totally unnecessary and unnatural part of human experience.


What is 10-Day Whole Body Detox?

Our 10-Day Whole Body Detox is a health restoration program that focuses on thorough cleansing of all body systems.

This program is designed for those who would like to take their health to a higher level and who want to learn how to take care of themselves. It is quite intense, and its purpose is to thoroughly cleanse all body systems as well as provide you with tools to make your lifestyle and nutrition healthy and enjoyable.

While we do not address specific diseases, our guests have found the 10-Day program helpful for conditions that include:

  • Excess weight (average loss during program 8-12 lb)
  • Diabetes/anemia
  • High blood pressure/cholesterol/chest pain
  • Gall stones and gallbladder attacks
  • Eye trouble
  • Shortness of Breath/Asthma, Cough
  • Testicular and prostate problems
  • Breast cancer
  • Tumours, cysts
  • Constipation, gas, bloating, IBS, Crohn’s, colitis, haemorrhoids and other digestive disorders.
  • Arthritis
  • Heavy metal toxicity
  • Chemical/drug toxicity
  • Smoking
  • Cleansing after recovery from lung cancer and other types of cancer
  • Food Addiction
  • Muscle cramps and leg pain
  • Gum and Teeth problems
  • Ulcers
  • MS
  • Rosecea, eczema, psoriasis, pimples, acne
  • Sinus/ nose problems
  • Sleep problems
  • Back and neck pain
  • Mild to moderate depression
  • Increased sweating
  • Bad breath and other body odours
  • Frequent urination
  • Foggy brain
  • Heavy menstrual flow
  • Frequent fatigue
  • Rejuvenation of mind and body
  • Bruising easily
  • Nervousness, mood swings
  • Recovery after treatment with antibiotics
  • Sensitive skin
  • Swollen lymph nodes, edema
  • Migraines
  • Unpleasant symptoms during PMS and menopause
  • Varicose veins

Our main strategy is the use of cleansing drinks and formulas that are custom-made from high quality all natural ingredients: herbs, clay, charcoal, fresh unpasteurized juices etc. Fresh wheat grass juice is served almost daily.

On eating days, which constitute about 50% of the program, we serve delicious and nutritious raw food: salads, fruit and more elaborate raw cuisine creations, like raw pasta, ice-cream and cakes made with no sugar, flour or milk. We also include several cooked vegan items to show how you can incorporate healthy food into your daily life. (However, if somebody does not want to eat cooked food, we will accommodate them with pleasure.) On non-eating (semi-fasting) days, instead of meals we serve apples twice a day.

The program provides thorough detox of all major organs and systems of elimination: digestive tract, liver and gallbladder, lungs, body fluids (blood, lymph, blood vessels, and interstitial fluid), kidneys and skin. Though the body cleanses all organs and systems every day of the program , we designed the 10-day program in an effective sequence of detox: first focus is on the digestive system, then liver/gallbladder, and so on. We include a great variety of cleansing drinks and therapies benefiting particular organs or systems;  for example, our liver drink and capsules are designed to detoxify liver and gall bladder, and blood cleanse tea helps purify body fluids. We focus specifically on heavy metal, chemical toxicity, parasite and Candida detox.

How Will I feel During Cleansing?

How you feel depends a lot on how well you prepare for the program and on your level of health. Guests who follow our simple 1-2 week preparation guidelines and who do not have major health issues usually go through the program with little or no symptoms, except feeling colder and more tired than usual. Most people with major conditions also go through the detox process effortlessly, if they prepared themselves well.

The first day or two of cleansing are usually more difficult than the rest. Most people anticipate this and are afraid of some sort of withdrawal. To counteract this, we provide you with detailed pre-visit guidelines to prepare your body for the program.

Since we start cleansing gradually with raw meals, “withdrawal” symptoms are less noticeable. You may feel cold and slightly more tired than usual. You may also feel sore, tight and weak in muscles, especially in the legs because your body will be drawing toxins and glucose from them.

After several days, most people experience increased energy and clarity of mind, and many say that they have never felt as good in their entire lives. Sometimes we have to warn our guests not to waste energy, which is still needed for healing.

When the cleansing is finished, the tongue becomes pinkish, breath fresh, skin moist and smooth. The whole body feels lighter and squeaky clean. Taste buds are cleared up and unhealthy cravings disappear. A feeling of lightness in the whole body and ease of movement are the most common benefits guests notice during or after detox. Some of them share that they feel like they are flying, not walking. Emotions are calmer and more stable. There is more peace in your heart and more clarity in your mind.

Accommodating Dietary Needs

We can accommodate most common dietary needs including diabetics, hypoglycemics, and those who have allergies, sensitivities or problems digesting particular foods. We are happy to share our recipes and provide you with the necessary tools to continue living healthfully when you finish the program.

Education

Many guests find our daily health lectures and videos life-changing.  While we promote high standards and show how to reach them, we neither promote pure veganism, raw foodism, or anything in particular. We do encourage being natural in every aspect, while thoughtfully using super foods and other health supporting tools.

Our main goal is to help you to improve life and health at the level and circumstances you are in at the moment. The topics we cover in our non-traditional and in-depth presentations include:

  • Which shampoo you can eat for breakfast.
  • Why don’t horses get constipated?
  • How to stop flu.
  • How to boost your self-esteem.

Emotional Aspect

Since most diseases are rooted in emotional imbalance, we dedicate an hour per day to emotional wellness restoration workshops, called Group Time, where the group discusses topics like:

  • What does a fulfilling life mean to you?
  • How to acquire and to keep inner peace.
  • How to simplify your life.
  • Enlightened Relationships.
  • How to Let it Go.

You will have private time, too. Our surroundings are peaceful and quiet, perfect for walks and meditation. Ever-present sunshine of Alberta is not only very healing for the body, but also is able to warm up the saddest heart.

Two Clients Share Their Stories

“At first, when I decided to attend the cleanse, I did not know what to expect. I had an image of the cleanse in my mind where people would come, stay in their rooms for the most part, have little interaction with or care from others, and just gather for a daily serving of apples. Summed up, I felt as though my stay at the centre would be lonely with little contact with others; however, my experience was quite the opposite. There was plenty of time spent with other guests. The morning check-ups, sharing times, daily exercise times, meals, and steam baths contributed to the close-knit group that we had by the end of the week.

“There were other things besides meaningful relationships that made the cleanse one of the greatest ten days of my life. One is the instruction I received, which exposed me to the truth. You presented me with information, which was hidden from me, but has now opened my eyes to a world of vitality and abundant life. Over my holidays for school, I am reading and reading and reading because I want to know all about the way to health through healthy eating and spiritual well-being. As a result, I have been a bookworm over the holidays, trying to learn about a subject that prior to the cleanse was foreign to me. Some books I am reading include Ann Wigmore’s Wheatgrass, Victoria Boutenko’s Greens for Life, George Malkumus’ God’s Way to Ultimate Health and other raw food books comprised mainly of recipes. In addition, I have ordered more of Ann Wigmore’s books, which I plan to read almost immediately when I get them. My pursuit to correct my ailing eating habits has stemmed from your willingness to educate others. I truly thank you for this.

“I also appreciate your availability to all of us guests before, during, and even now after the cleanse. Being that the information you presented us was quite new, I had many questions and you were always available to answer and explain them in simple terms.

“Now being educated with the ways to receive ultimate health, I am trying to follow them. I am not seeing a dramatic increase in energy or a miraculous healing of my acne, but I am hopeful and reminding myself to be patient. After all, my body does have to heal itself from years of abuse. I am testing this raw foods diet to learn which foods will meet my daily requirements for vitamins and minerals to prevent deficiencies, and what portions are best.

“Thank you so much for having this cleansing centre and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to be a part of the cleanse.”

Sarah Campbell, Edmonton, AB, Canada

 

“I had been struggling for a few years with dizzy spells, sometimes completely blacking out. But from the fall of 2003 through the early fall of 2004 my health steadily declined. For months I wondered if my active life was over. When I walked I had to be sure not to go too fast as I would have dizzy spells. Occasionally I was unable to walk down the hall in our home without having to lean against the wall to brace myself for a dizzy spell.

As a writer I would sometimes sit before my computer for an hour or more without touching a key, as I did not have sufficient mental energy to get my mind in gear. If I ever got started I could do reasonably well, as long as I kept up the momentum.

My wife, a nurse, began to expect medication reaction and checked the books. She found that I was having a major reaction in every condition listed. As a result of a change in medications I began to improve. But my wife and I decided to go to Abundant Life Centre for a cleanse. When we first arrived I had to go slowly and stop two or three times in going up the stairs. Even then I inevitably had a dizzy spell by the time I got to the top.

By the time we left ten days later I was walking up the stairs at a normal pace for me, which is quite a bit faster than average. My wife also was feeling much better. Everyone in the group also gained in strength, health and general feeling of well being.

The clinic has had unusual results with very serious cases involving cancer, heart, etc. I highly recommend it to those with serious health problems. But I even more highly recommend it to those who consider themselves healthy but would like to improve their health.”

Pr. Leroy A. Moore, PhD, Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, USA
