Warning: Potentially Hazardous Health Trend

Warning:  Potentially hazardous Health Trend

I am always skeptical of trends, especially when it comes to health & nutrition.  I find most of them tend to create more harm than good, and that the absolute BEST trend is to keep it simple — EAT REAL, WHOLE FOOD AS FOUND IN NATURE.  That said, I want to give you a heads up on a potentially dangerous future trend.

Juice Companies have started creating juices with Activated Charcoal, and while activated charcoal definitely has some amazing benefits, it also has some serious drawbacks.  It is important to be educated and to stay informed.

On the positive side, activated charcoal is one of the best products available to use for the absorption of toxins, poisons, and chemicals in the system.  It is not absorbed by the body.  Instead, it passes thru the digestive tract and clings to all of the poisons and heavy metals in the stomach and small intestines, and removes them during elimination.

I know this product very well because in Nykki’s Cleanse, we use Bentonite as a drawing agent to facilitate the removal of access toxins from the system.  Bentonite has very similar properties and is something I always advise clients to use wisely.

BUT, what these juice companies do not tell you, and what your MUST know, is that activated charcoal does not discriminate and will absorb nutrients in this process.  It should not be taken with food.  We need nutrients after all, and what good is it to spend $10 on a juice if you are not even getting the active enzymes?  Definitely defeats the purpose.

And even more critical to know is that the charcoal will also absorb any medication taken within around 2 hours of consumption.  Not knowing this could be incredibly dangerous and harmful.  So if you are on some kind of prescription medication that you NEED in order to function, it MUST be taken outside of 2 hours of taking the charcoal.

Please, any time there is a trend, do your homework.  Remember, many of these are what is at the root of our societies health crisis.  If you ever have any questions or concerns, remember, I am always here to help.  Please feel free to schedule your FREE 30 minute consultation.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING:

“I went from 63kg to 60 kg – and lost 2 dress sizes.  It was more exciting AFTER the cleanse as I continued to lose weight and my body better metabolized so I could spot reduce cellulite.  The emotional benefits from the cleanse let me connect to the deeper stuff that was lurking beneath the surface so I could see it and let it go – just like I shed the extra weight. And the ODDEST benefit was I had MORE energy to exercise while on the cleanse! The whole food gave me MORE energy and the tonics made me feel lighter – so I could work out more and enjoy the workout instead of carrying all those toxins!  How many diets do you go on – where you actually continue losing weight AFTER the diet finishes? That’s why the Nykki’s Cleanse is a must!”   —Angela Ambrosia, Australia
