Do you have any skin care programs for women age 50 and over? I am going to try the detox progarm as soon as possible. I truly believe that I am going to be very happy with the results. I am 51 years old, and I want to look and feel my best. I have a lot of belly fat, and that makes me feel uncomfortable, because some people will ask me, if I am pregnant. This seems very strange to me, because my stomach seems to be the main place, where all the fat is building up. I desire to have beauty inside and out. I want to be completely whole. If you have tips for skin care and body care, please let me know. Some people say that I look like I am in my forties, however, if I did not have all of this extra body fat, I could really believe what they are saying.

The blood needs to be cleansed in order to enhance your skin and eliminate excess fat. We would recommend you perform the Full Body Cleanse which can help improve skin complexion, release weight, and detoxify, purify, rejuvenate, and strengthen the body and all of its eliminative channels. We also have a Facial Skin Kit that works to naturally restore the health of skin by helping to remove blemishes, hydrate skin, and even out complexion for resilient skin.

I would like to order the cleanse for women. My husband is doing the full body cleanse now...what do you recommend for me? I really need to work on my diet. I'm vegetarian however, I feel like I truly face some of the same issues you faced during your conversion. Perhaps I need to consider going back to strictly vegan vegetables! I use to be very healthy but now I take meds for stomach pains...etc... but I have implemented flaxseed oil into my diet...what is your view on flaxseed? I found this article to very interesting that you wrote. I have headaches from time to time also.

We would recommend you perform the Full Body Cleanse to help remedy the sypmtoms you are experiencing. A raw foods diet is recommended while on the cleanse, so you are on the right track. Flaxseed Oil is a great product to have in your diet, as it provides healthy fats.

I have been on the Full Body Cleanse for 3 - 4 days now & I have noticed that I have more acid reflux symptoms. I want to continue with the program as I feel as it would help me to become much healthier. I have been to a homeopathic doctor & he indicated senna leaves are not the best thing for me to use. I may not have had the right grade senna leaves tablet at the time too. Any suggestions?

All of our products are well-proportioned, so the senna leaves will not be a problem. The senna is well balanced for optimal benefit. Excess acid reflux means your body is adjusting to the cleanse. You are very acidic and the herbs are alkaline. Healing is taking place. Keep with your cleanse! Please read "Are Herbs Safe To Take?".
