MHPT 7-Day Detox Cleanse
WHAT IS DETOXIFICATION?
Detoxification - the elimination of toxic wastes - has been used to promote health in cultures around the world for thousands of years. Many health problems may be associated with prolonged exposure to various toxic agents that our bodies many not be able to cleanse completely.
During periods of detoxification, certain nutrients are in increased demand to help turn toxic substances into harmless by products for elimination from the body. UltraClear PLUS is specifically formulated to assist the body with these important nutrients, and is intended as a complement to an elimination diet to promote healthy detoxification activities.
OVERVIEW:
Pick one type of green organic veggie per day. You may eat unlimited amount of that veggietable.
Example:
- Sunday - Leafy Green Lettuce
***Note*** It doesn’t matter which green veggie you eat, but it can only be one for any one day.
Each day drink at least 3 shakes a day ; you can have more; a shake is 2 scoops of UltraClear Plus pH with water. You may blend it with ice if you'd like.
With each shake, take 2 AdvaClear capsules, which will provide unique support for balanced activity of the body's detoxification process

Frequently Asked Question
What is detoxification?
Detoxification is the elimination of toxins from the body that we are exposed to externally from environmental sources, and internally from products generated by ongoing, normal daily cellular processes. Your liver is the principal player in detoxification, and the UltraClear, UltraClear PLUS, and UltraClear Plus pH are designed to give this organ, as well as other tissues, nutritional support for the detoxification process.

Why do I need a detoxification program?
Today, we are all exposed to toxins in the foods we eat, the air we breathe, and the water we drink. In addition, we produce toxins within our bodies in the processes of digestion and elimination, combating disease and infection, and dealing with stress. Some people produce additional toxins as the result of food allergy or "sensitivity" reactions. These various internal and external exposures can overburden our detoxification systems. The nutrient composition of the powdered beverage, the encapsulated supplement, and the complementary diet are designed to give your body nutritional support for the detoxification processes. It is important not only to improve your body's ability to detoxify, but also to take a load off of the detoxification system. The diet can be a critical component in this regard. The goal is a cleansing, regenerating process that nutritionally supports your body's overburdened or compromised detoxification systems, allowing them to begin functioning more efficiently.
Would the program be helpful for a person who has recently undergone repeated antibiotic therapy?
Yes. Medications like antibiotics may place an added burden on your body's detoxification systems. Your healthcare practitioner may recommend starting with UltraClear SUSTAIN
® and/or introducing a source of acidophilus or bifidobacteria culture to support healthy intestinal flora and digestion following the use of antibiotics
Is it possible to lose weight on this program?
Yes, especially if you mix your powdered beverage in water and eat the minimum amounts of the other listed foods, while making sure to drink lots of water. Incidentally, edema (water retention) can be a sign that the body needs detoxification. Some individuals may lose 2 to 5 pounds of fluid weight during their first few days on the program. Since these products are not intended to be used as part of a weight loss or weight management program, you should discuss your calorie needs and weight goals with your healthcare practitioner.
What should I eat when I've completed the program?
Once you have reached your health goals, you and your healthcare practitioner should reassess your program and progress. Together you should determine the next step, whether that be taking other supplements or medical foods, making other dietary changes, or continuing to use these products. A long-term maintenance plan that may include the dietary program recommended in this booklet can help you maintain the health improvements that you've made. The dietary portion of the program is well-balanced and nutrient-dense, and therefore acceptable for long-term use.
Can I follow this program if I am diabetic or hypoglycemic?
Probably, but you should make this decision with the guidance of your healthcare practitioner. Discussing integration of the detoxification program into your prescribed dietary program is necessary to avoid upsetting your glucose/insulin balance.
Can I go on this program if I am pregnant or nursing?
No. UltraClear products have been tested in these conditions; therefore, this program is not recommended for use at these times
