I weigh 300 lbs, and have been overweight since a child. I also have much guilt and shame in my life. I had a gastric bypass. I lost weight, and gained most of it back. I desperately want to be thin. I also have hypothyroidism [constantly cold, body temp 93-96 degrees]. Please help!

For your weight problem, please give our 20-day Weight Release Kit and Regimen a try. After this kit, jump immediately to the Full Body Cleanse. You can do either 3-week kit first. These cleanses can help to strengthen the eliminative channels and re-boot your body to perform at the level you desire.

I am thinking about purchasing your Full Body Cleanse program, but I am concerned about one thing... too much weight lost. I am already thin and do not want to fade away as I think three weeks on nothing but raw fruits and veggies may leave me looking sick. What is your suggestion? Are there any foods high in protein I can eat while cleansing?

If you are concerned about getting enough food while maintaining a raw foods diet over a 20-day period, make sure you are consuming plenty of healthy fats to keep you full and satiated. Avocado, Coconut Cream or Oil, Raw Nuts, Raw Seeds, are great sources of nutrients and healthy fats that will keep you from losing weight. To get the protein you need, you can try making a smoothie with Vegan Protein Powder.

What can I eat or take as an herb to gain muscle mass, being that I'm an avid weight lifter? I've done the Full Body Cleanse and Anti-V Kit and I feel great! Now I need to put the mass back on.

We would suggest our Vegan Protein Powder in either capsule or powder form. We offer great alternative-meat, high protein sources (under Meat Alternatives) in our ALTERNATIVE DIET and LIFESTYLE MANUAL.

I'm spitting up a lot of mucus that looks black. A lot of the mucus is coming from my nose with my body feeling weak. Is there a product you can recommend me to?

I know 2 people that have used the full body cleanse and the Anti V Kit and are now herpes free. I have recently purchased the Full Body Cleanse as well as the Anti V kit. I started the Full Body Cleanse 2 days ago and I am already starting to have a breakout. Actually it is only my second outbreak ever (I had my first 4 months ago). Is it normal to have an outbreak during the cleanse this quick? My next question, your food guide says that you can eat raw food only during the cleanse. Would it be unacceptable to eat sashimi while taking the kit?

Breakouts can be a form of cleansing! The body csn discharge via the skin because it's the largest channel of elimination. Keep up with the cleanse to achieve best results. Sashimi is not permitted in a raw foods diet, as it is fish. Read the article WHAT IS: RAW FOODS on our site under ARTICLES. Additional food recipes are listed in our Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual and in our Recipes section.

I would really appreciate a little more info on the veins treatment offered on your site. I would like to know how effective the capsules are, whether or not they help to get rid of existing veins, prevent future ones, or both? I would also like to know how soon one would begin to see results and whether or not there are any supplementary things that should be used alongside the Veins Formula. Additionally, there is a natural vein formula by the name of Veranin. How does your product compare or differ from this product, if at all?

Dherbs Veins Formula is a great product to help nourish and strengthen the veins and the venous system. Also, Circulation Aid and Cardiovascular will GREATLY enhance the impact of our Veins Formula. The difference in our products is the quality of herbs that we use. There are no synthetic ingredients of any kind are are 100% natural.

Yes indeed, the Full Body Cleanse Program truly works! I am so very glad that I persevered through the program. I took it like a champ after my first two initial days and the more my body expelled, the easier it was for me to complete the program. I look and feel wonderful!! I have to tell you that I really appreciate you and all the inspiration that I have received from the Dherbs staff. You are all top quality, just like your products. I'll be looking out for the weight loss regimen because I know your company doesn't half-step. Therefore, I'm bound to have results with following the instructions. I will always be one of your regular customers, as well as a walking testimony to all I meet.

Thank you, we appreciate your kind words.

I am 47 years old African American female, whose health has been failing for the past six years (75 lbs overweight, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, poor circulation, long-term/short-term memory loss). I have a uterine fibroid the size of a 23-week-old fetus. Rather take the natural way out. God does work in mysterious ways. I stumbled upon your website today. My plan is to do the Full Body Cleanse first. Please advise me on the use of the Female Cleanse and Fibroid Formula. Can the two be used in conjunction?

We recommend that you perform the Full Body Cleanse (and the soak mentioned in the Full Body Cleanse Companion) for 20 days followed by the Female Cleanse for 20 days, followed by the Weight Release Kit and Regimen. After you finish your cleanses, your regimen should consist of Uterus Formula, Weight Release Formula, Electric Greens, and Detox Tea. Do not use the Fibroid Formula in conjunction with the Female Cleanse or any other cleanse. Each cleanse must maintain its own set of formulas. Only use the Uterus Formula once your cleanses are complete. Purchase the Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual for better and healthier food choices (on the cleanses and while off the cleanses). It is best to optimize your diet in order to achieve the best results and potentially heal yourself from your variety of ailments.

What herbs help to suppress your appetite?

The Hunger Control Formula and Garcinia Cambogia are great supplements to suppress appetite! If you are also having sugar cravings, try our Sugar Formula.

It was suggested that one take high doses of vitamin C, lipoic acid, etc. Is this necessary with your Full Body Cleanse program?

There is no need to take any additional supplements during the Full Body Cleanse but also no harm in doing so. People tend to restrain from taking their daily vitamins because they find it to be too much to take along with the FBC capsules.

I heard that regular cleansing removes impurities from the body, but in order to get heavy metals such as mercury, arsenic, etc. You have to do a special/certain type of cleanse design to remove heavy metals. Does your cleansing program remove heavy metals from the body? BTW I have large amounts of arsenic and mercury in my body. I notice your cleanse program is 3 weeks and most holistic practitioners say it takes 3-6 months to rid the body of heavy metals through chelation. If your cleanse program removes heavy metals do I have to do several iterations to totally remove heavy metals to an acceptable level?

The Full Body Cleanse can help remove heavy metals from the body via the use of activated charcoal. No other product removes heavy metals like activated charcoal (carbon). Now if your focus is mainly on removing heavy metals, we suggest you use liquid bentonite clay (every other day while on the cleanse) and also drink plenty of vegetable juice that has plenty of cilantro in it. Cilantro is an excellent heavy metal remover, especially for mercury (due to mercury amalgam in the mouth). You don't have to cleanse for 3-6 months straight to remove heavy metals. You simply cleanse, add liquid bentonite clay, cilantro juice, perform castor oil packs for liver cleanses, get colonics performed and do enemas (coffee enemas), drink oxygenated water (1 ounce every 30 minutes), fast (once you're off the cleanse); perform hot water soaks in 2-3 boxes of sea salt, etc.

What is the best supplement (protein or herbal) to take to help build muscle for strength training and bodybuilding? All these protein powders on the market I've stopped taking because of all the sugar, whey and casinete; among other weight (fat) inducing ingredients.

Try Vegan Protein on our site. It's all natural and 100% absorbable! You'll find it beneficial. There's a capsule and a powdered version. Take both if you're really into protein. Spirulina is the BEST individual natural source of protein (75% bio-protein)!

I have been hearing quite a bit about the gene Leptin and if it is not operating properly we will maintain fat cells. What can you tell me about the hypothalamus gland and the release of Leptin in our bodies?

The hypothalamus gland is a single gland of the endocrine system. Don't isolate one gland. If one gland is messed up the whole system (endocrine system) is impaired, so concentrate on your body holistically. Check out the Full Body Cleanse to help heal and strengthen your entire body. Herbs that contain hormonal precursors, i.e. licorice, sarsaparilla, damiana, etc., benefit the entire endocrine system and every gland of the endocrine system.
