Detoxification Programs

Why cleanse the body? The exposure to toxins in our modern world is a fact. The toll this takes on our bodies can be quite severe. The normal waste by-products of cellular metabolism, such as carbon dioxide, are easily disposed of in a healthy person. However when burdened with food preservatives, chemicals, pesticides, drugs, irradiated food and overeating, the eliminating channels become overloaded.

According to the book, Edgar Cayce's Guide to Colon Care, by Sandra Duggan, R.N., the following problems are caused by toxic build-up:

• Stiff knees
• Feeling tired and listless
• Dizziness
• Joint pain
• Muscle pain in arms and legs
• Poor digestion and assimilation
• Anemia
• Moodiness and irritability

• Skin rash
• Sluggish Liver
• Kidney problems
• Mucus in the colon
• Dark circles under the eyes
• Hypertension
• Heart palpitations
• Burning eyes

Cayce, “the father of holistic medicine”, adamantly expressed “...a clean colon is vital to our health and well-being…if the body can be kept free of toxic build-up, then it is capable of normally assimilating nutrients, and can replenish itself.”

Also, there seems to be a growing body of evidence that our society eats too much, is dangerously overweight and eats too many of the wrong foods. The emphasis is usually placed on calories and weight loss and how we look, but ignore the health problems created by excess weight and eating our Standard American Diet.

In Carol's Care uses a few different 21 day purification programs, which incorporates three levels of intensity, and are therefore designed to meet our clients’ individual needs and desires.
