Why Cleanse?
The purpose of Vibrant Health Vibrant Cleanse cleansing fast is to remove metabolic waste and accumulated environmental toxins from the cells of the body. Vibrant Health Vibrant Cleanse Packets are intended to dissolve and eliminate cellular waste to preserve youth and elasticity regardless of years.
How to Do It
During the Vibrant Health Vibrant Cleanse, you will not eat any solid foods. You will drink 6-8 glasses of Vibrant Health Vibrant Cleanse per day. You can have unlimited amounts of water and unlimited amounts of herbal tea. You can stay on Vibrant Health Vibrant Cleanse for as little as 3 days and up to 30 days. A day day cleansing fast is common.
Laxative
Complete elimination and cleansing can be accelerated if desired through the use of an effective laxative herb tea in the morning and/or evening.
Salt Water Purge
A final thorough cleansing of the gastrointestinal tract can be achieved through the additional use of an internal salt water bath composed of two level teaspoons of un-iodized sea salt dissolved in one quart lukewarm water. The entire quart is to be taken on an empty stomach. Total elimination can be expected within an hour. Multiple eliminations may occur.
Breaking the Cleansing Fast
When you have finished cleansing you must slowly reintroduce food.
- Day 1 Post-Cleanse: You can drink unlimited amounts of fresh fruit and vegetable juices. It is a good idea to fortify one or two servings with added Fields of Greens or Green Vibrance green food powders.
- Day 2 Post-Cleanse: You can have unlimited amounts of fresh fruit and vegetable juices. and warm vegetable broth. Again, fortification with Fields of Green or Green Vibrance enhances replenishment of key nutrients.
- Day 3 Post-Cleanse: You may begin eating whole fruits and vegetables and unlimited vegetable broth.
- Day 4-10 Post-Cleanse: Now you are ready to introduce other food sources. Vegetables cooked soft, herb teas, fresh vegetables and fruit juices should be used for 5-7 days.
- Day 11 Post-Cleanse: Concentrated proteins (ie: meat, fish and eggs) may be reintroduced in small amounts, increasing the portions gradually over the next 10 days.
After successful cleansing you may use Vibrant Health Vibrant Cleanse to replace one or two meals a day for maintenance.
- Long Term: It is suggested you consider modifying your diet to maintain the benefits of the cleanse. A diet absent of grains, with more fruit and vegetables, and less animal protein and fats, will be healthy and invigorating.
About Vibrant Health
Vibrant Health is a brand of products to assist the healing of illness and the establishment of optimum health. Both natural pharmaceuticals (nutraceuticals) and products for general health improvement can be found within the line.
Nutritional science and biochemistry have taken us far beyond the simpler concept of nutritional supplementation by vitamins and minerals alone. Product development at Vibrant Health is based on scientific discoveries that lead us to combine recognized nutrients with more recently identified natural therapeutic factors from plants, animals, earth and laboratory into truly effective dietary supplements and concentrated foods.
Vibrant Health Motivation
Vibrant Health was founded in order to provide trustworthy, high-quality nutritional supplements that deliver the benefits claimed. We anticipate that if our quality products work, then our consumers will appreciate our efforts, and we will survive to develop additional, helpful products. After all, our purpose is to do our best to deliver robust health to the consumer or patient.
The Science of Vibrant Health
Vibrant Health is a brand for those seeking vibrant health. Our promise is to design and market the most nutritionally valuable food supplements we can for the benefit of all men, women, and children. Delivering on that promise is a serious endeavor, and we work diligently toward that end for you.
Vibrant Health's products provide supplemental nutrition that can support human biochemistry. Since the human body appears to carry a certain infinite wisdom, the establishment of optimum health often follows appropriate dietary improvements. The steady decline in trace nutrient value of our fresh foods - as evidenced in the U.S. Department of Agriculture's analyses of our food supply - has, in the opinion of Vibrant Health, established a mandate for supplemental nutrition. We believe supplemental nutrition is no longer an option, it is a necessity if one hopes to achieve robust and vibrant health.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a "green food"?
A: A green food, in our estimation, is more than just anything that is green. Yes, it is important that the food be a green plant, but the concept of a "green food" in the dietary supplement industry carries with it the understanding that it is not only green, but also nutrient dense. At the top of the list of such foods are parsley, and the cereal grasses. Each of these foods is decidedly NOT succulent, meaning they are not pumped up with water or sugars or starches or fats. You can think of them as the power packed, lean athletes of the plant kingdom. Relative to the amount of calories present in the plants, there is a much greater biomass of trace nutrients than in any other food we know of at this time. If you dry such green foods, and then powder them, opening cells to full digestion, or take away the small amount of cellulose through juicing in order to release the nutrients, the beneficial impact on biochemistry can be significant.
Q: What is a "super food"?
A: The term "super food" has become muddied recently with the introduction of individual exotic plants such as Amla and Goji berries, for example, many of which are touted as super foods by themselves. The claim is based on their content of unique polyphenols or broad range of nutrients (as in the case of Amla) that give them better nutrient density than foods commonly eaten. However, as marketing has its way, blueberries, cranberries, raspberries, broccoli, onions and cauliflower, among others, are now having the term "super food" attached to them, some more deservedly than others.
Given that Vibrant Health introduced the first "super food," Green Vibrance, to the retail market in 1992, we probably have - or at least had - the authority to define the term. Our interpretation is that a super food aggressively presents the human body with a broad range of nutrients at meaningful potencies but along with the fewest number of calories possible. In other words, a super food MUST be extremely nutrient dense. But in order to make good on its promise of being "super," those nutrients must make it into the body, and be utilized. Therefore, a comprehensive super food must also do all it can to rehabilitate or enhance digestive capabilities in the consumer, and improve circulation so that those nutrients can ultimately be delivered to every cell of the body. In addition, our modern, more hygienic environment, infused as it is with man-made toxic elements (e.g. dioxins, PCBs, lead, cadmium, pesticides, etc.), requires both improvement to our immune systems, and support for liver function. If immunity is strong, and the liver is efficiently removing waste substances and toxins, one's health can be advanced to a "super" level. These are, indeed, the core functions of Green Vibrance.
Q: What are the benefits for athletes in adding green foods to their regimen?
A: Endurance, strength and faster recovery. As each cell is provided the trace nutrients it needs to function at optimal efficiency (a primary goal of Green Vibrance for instance), cells will have no trouble producing energy on demand, thereby boosting both strength and endurance. It follows that cellular wastes, generated during a workout, will be more efficiently expelled from the cell, and that tissue repair will be more speedily accomplished.
Q: How do you recommend athletes add green foods to their diet effectively?
A: Simply mixing them into water or a smoothie or a favorite juice is sufficient. In the case of Green Vibrance, more probiotics will survive the digestive process if the product is taken 30 to 45 minutes AFTER a meal. At that stage of digestion, food from the preceding meal has diluted stomach acid, raising pH to a level that will not degrade the probiotics in Green Vibrance.
Q: Does Green Vibrance contain any phytates or lectins? These are found in grains and I cannot consume them.
A: Whole grains can indeed be looked upon as the primary source for phytates. Lectins are more abundant in beans. Phytates are famous for inhibiting absorption of minerals, while lectins interfere with protein digestion, and slow the breakdown of carbohydrate. Both come from the mature seed of the plant.
Green Vibrance DOES NOT contain any component derived from any mature grain or bean other than 200 mg of de-oiled flaxseed and pure, anti-nutrient free phospholipids (lecithin) from soybeans. No ingredient within Green Vibrance is known to be a source of either phytates or lectins. Cereal grasses from wheat, oat or barley are just that: grasses. They are the immature plant that sprouts from the ground looking very much like a ramrod straight, unmowed the lawn before harvest. These immature plants are extremely nutrient dense just prior to the jointing phase, and are still many, many weeks away from developing their seed heads. Therefore, since Green Vibrance contains cereal grass juice powders and neither any grains from a mature plant's seed head nor any bean extracts or powders or substances of any kind, Green Vibrance is not known to contain any phytates or lectins.
One primary goal of Green Vibrance is to deliver concentrated nutrition and improve the consumer's digestive capabilities. The formula was specifically designed so that it would not contain either phytates or lectins, substances that interfere with digestion and nutrient absorption. On the contrary, it contains a host of (rather costly) ingredients whose roles are to enhance digestive capabilities, making nutrient absorption more rapid and efficient.
