Quiz Scoring Information:

1-10: Toxin Alert!

The lower your score, the greater your potential toxic burden and the more you may benefit from a natural detoxification program. If you scored a 15 or lower, you may need to take a slower, more gradual approach to cleansing in order to avoid possible cleansing reactions. Although generally short lived, such reactions may include headaches, fatigue, skin irritation and digestive discomfort. It may be best to begin with a gentle total-body cleansing formula designed for first-time cleansers before progressing to an advanced cleanse and possibly a more targeted cleansing formula to address specific needs or conditions. It is also important to supplement your diet with beneficial fiber, Omega oils, digestive enzymes and probiotics. A nutrient-rich liquid greens formula or whole food multi-nutrient supplement may also provide added nutritional support during cleansing.

11-20: Room for Improvement

You may still have work to do to reduce your overall toxic burden. If you have never cleansed before, it may be best to begin with a mild cleansing formula before progressing to a more advanced cleanse. However, if you are an experienced cleanser or if you suffer from occasional constipation, you may wish to begin with a more advanced cleanse that uses deep-cleansing herbal extracts instead of milder whole herbs. Remember also to supplement your diet with beneficial dietary fiber, Omega fish oils, digestive enzymes and probiotic supplements. A nutrient-rich liquid greens formula or whole food multi-nutrient supplement may also provide added nutritional support during cleansing.
