Are you ready to detox from the year 2021? If you are anything like many of us, the answer is a resounding YES! Just the benefits alone that come from detoxing is welcoming in itself. These benefits include: losing excess body fat, enhancing mental clarity, increasing energy levels, reducing sugar cravings and balancing immune function.
A majority of those who have detoxed using Aceva's Ultimate Body Cleanse have reported feeling these benefits immediately or a few days into the program. A small percentage however may report feeling worse before feeling better depending on how “toxic” they are prior to beginning the cleanse. This is due to what is termed the Herxheimer Reaction.
Toxins can enter circulation from numerous sources including those consumed from processed foods and the environment, as well as from bacterial and yeast byproducts in the intestinal tract that may be absorbed when these microorganisms die and their byproducts enter into circulation. Once these toxins enter circulation, the body attempts to eliminate them or store them away in adipose or other tissues due to their destructive nature.
Individuals that may pose a higher risk of experiencing the Herxheimer Reaction while undergoing a detox program are those who are overweight/obese, consume primarily processed foods, work in a toxic secular environment, complain excessively of fatigue and chronic pain, do not comply with taking the supplements outlined in the Ultimate Body Cleanse program and those being treated for Candida Albicans and/or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).
A majority of these risk factors indicate individuals who have higher than normal toxin levels present in their tissues before beginning the cleanse. Weight loss can induce large amounts of toxins being spilled into the bloodstream as a result of adipose cells being broken down.
It is also important to note that taking probiotic supplements can also initiate the Herxheimer reaction if there is a microorganism overgrowth present. The beneficial probiotic species help eradicate overgrown microbial species, but this may spark the Herxheimer reaction depending on the severity of the overgrowth and the body’s ability to detoxify properly.
Aceva’s Ultimate Body Cleanse program does contain a probiotic supplement, Digest and Protect. If you experience Herxheimer Reaction while on the cleanse, it may be a sign you were extremely toxic and/or had microorganism overgrowth such as (SIBO) and/or Candida overgrowth prior to the cleanse.
You will be pleased to know that Aceva’s Ultimate Body Cleanse program contains supplemental ingredients that have been shown to help prevent and/or mitigate Herxheimer Reaction symptoms. Additional strategies and products that can be used that may also be effective include:
If it occurs, the Herxheimer reaction typically only lasts a few days and is followed by a sensation of euphoria as long as the body can catch up and remove the lingering toxins in circulation.
Educating yourself on this process is extremely important because you may be tempted to stop the program if experiencing any of the above-mentioned symptoms, which can prevent or delay the experience of vibrant health that comes with detoxifying the body effectively. Working through the symptoms associated with the Herxheimer reaction is usually worth it so long as the symptoms do not progress to becoming severe and debilitating to you.
In the case of severe and debilitating symptoms, it may be wise to stop the cleanse and reattempt it at a later time when you can enter the program with a more manageable level of toxins after improving your diet and lifestyle for a period of time. The euphoria that usually comes after the symptoms associated with the Herxheimer reaction is worth it and many of you will begin reporting they “feel like a new person” and “I haven’t felt this way in years!”
Now that you possess the knowledge and tools needed to address the Herxheimer reaction, you can maximize the results that are associated with completing the Ultimate Body Cleanse program and take yet another step towards experiencing vibrant health.
