Stacy lost 9 pounds in 4 days

Hi Alva and Buddy!
I just finished my first detoX of 4 days and lost 9 pounds! I feel so good and my skin feels like baby powder. I am going to do another 4 days on Monday. I had to take a break for the weekend because I have WAY too much going on and can't be having bowel movements everywhere! HAHA!
I have to admit....it was rough-going at first. I could hardly get the tea down and was starving by Day 2 (made the veggie broth....I was still hungry), but by Day 3....my hunger started to subside. Nights were hard, but I am so proud of myself that I stuck it out and made it through!
Thanks!
Stacy

Free Packs?

Rachel wants to know:
Hello, and thank you for a great product! I just rec'd my recent order yesterday. I was expecting to receive a free pack in this order b/c was a 2 case order. Just wondering what your policy is? The free pack only on one case?
Again, no complaints. Just asking a question. please reply, and have a wonderful day!!!!!

Buddy answers:
The 2 case order effectively includes 2 free packs since you are only paying ofr 2 of the four packs in the 2nd case. The additional free pack only comes with a full price case. We've are considering changing the language to: "buy a case and a half and get two free packs". What do you think?

Rachel responds:

Yes, I see your math here...makes sense. I do like the new wording "buy a six pack and get 2 free packs".

Safety, weight loss, exercise, fat reduction

Mr Kemp asked:
I just ordered a case of detox today,Is it safe to use detox for more than 30 days? I would like to loose 30 pounds in 4 months. Can i exercise while i use detox? Will detox reduce fat?

Buddy answered:
detoX is a fast and few people fast for 30 days in a row. I only know of one person who went 30 days right from the start and she did not have any problems. The longest I've used Detox is 11 days and I found it quite comfortable. My first use was for 7 days, I stopped for a week, did 5 days, stopped for another week, and did 9 days. At the conclusion of that 5 week period, I was down 42 pounds.
You can exercise while using DetoX. Pay attention to how you feel.
Fat reduction is almost a universal experience.
Each person has to decide what is safe use for them.

Stacy has questions

Hi Alva and Buddy! I just ordered for the first time and should be receiving it soon, so I wanted to ask you something before I start it......when is the best time to take medications while doing the detox? I know that whenever you have frequent bowel movements, that medications don't have time to absorb. Do you have any recommendations on when to take them?
Thanks a lot!
Stacy

Dear Stacy
What a great question. First time its been asked. the best thing is for you to ask your physician since he or she would have knowledge of the medication and whatever conditions are involved.
I suspect a lot would depend on how you react to DetoX. I tend to have frequent bowel movements over a period of hours while Alva had fewer movements that were concentrated in an hour (3 or 4 hours after she consumed Detox.
A further complication is how much lemonade you drink and how often you drink it. The difference between Alva and I, mentioned above, is perhaps due to our differing lemonade habits:
  • I tend to drink it all day
  • Alva drinks it in more concentrated doses ( I'm sending her a copy of this so she can disagree with me)
I hope this helps. ask further questions if you wish.
Buddy

Hi Buddy!
I hate to bother you again, but I have a question now that I'll be starting my cleanse tomorrow morning. I have already made the tea and lemon drink tonight and am ready to go! My question is this....Are you supposed to drink the entire lemon drink mixture by the end of the day or is however much you want to drink? And can you drink plain water along with the lemon drink or does that cause the cleanse to not work as well? I was also wondering if you drink the herbal tea hot or cold?
Sorry for the questions, but I want to get the most out of my cleanse!
Thank you so much!

Hi Stacy
I try to drink the tea at room temperature by letting it sit for a while before drinking it. Theoretically, you should drink all of the lemonade each day (3 1/2 quarts) but you can substitute water for some of the lemonade. The lemonade definitely intensifies the cleansing.
Feel free to keep asking questions.

Anti-yeast/fungus fasting

I've had a periodic problem with eczema for the past few years. It is the only one of my health issues that is unaffected by detox. It turns out that the problem is probably caused by yeast or fungus and I am going to test 2 changes to my normal detox fast:
  1. Sweeten the lemonade with stevia. (I usually use honey.)
  2. Supplement the fast with a variety of anti-yeast and anti-fungus substances including coconut, pau d'arco tea, dandelion tea, and raw garlic.
This is going to be a six-week project and I will post updates from time to time

Thanks for your patience

March was a hectic month. Our February detox sales were so strong that we were on backorder for the entire month of March. We did learn a couple of things:
  1. We need to plan for success. Our ordering schedule was based on last years sales growth. In the future we will plan on explosive growth.
  2. We have some wonderful customers. Their patience, courtesy, and consideration left us in awe.
