I recently purchased the Anti-V Cleanse and I have a question.... I am very tiny...I'm 28 years old, 5 feet tall, 86 lbs. Don't fret, I eat a bunch and I'm muscular from exercise I'm just a tiny pixie. I'm wondering about the doses. Because I'm so much smaller than the average person should I take the standard dose? It seems like its all based on weight and I certainly don't want to be taking too much, especially the intestinal cleanse/laxative.

Start off with the 5 capsules and monitor yourself. If you want to reduce the dosage (2-3 capsules) then you are free to do so. Weight is really not a factor in determination of number of capsules each person should take. Read our article 'I'm Thin ...."

Is it okay for a person with diabetes to have a fruit smoothie in the mornings during the full body cleanse?

YES!!!! Just watch your sugar because most diabetics have sugar problems due to bad sugar mixed with good sugar (from fruit -- fructose). Please read "Natural Sugars Are Not The Same As Refined Sugars", "Save Yourself By Using These Natural Sugar Alternatives".

I am on the second day of the Total Women Cleanse. I am unsure of the use of the magnets. Do I use only one on the designated thyroid area and what are the smaller ones for?

Stick the magnets over the thyroid area (where indentation is above the chest bone, about 2 inches beneath the Adam's apple). You only use one magnet. The other is an extra one in case you lose a magnet. The side that goes against the skin has an indentation in it (like a small dot). Stick it to your skin and where for the duration advised in your booklet.

I am contemplating the Total Woman Cleanse because I have uterine fibroids. One of the fibroids is rather large, taking up the major portion of my uterus. What do you think will occur with these fibroids during the cleanse? I think the large one is contributing to painful ovulation. Should I expect heavy bleeding on the next menstrual cycle?

The Female Cleanse would be a great kit to prepare your body before the Uterus Cleanse. The Female Cleanse may provide a multitude of benefits that may or may not include heavy bleeding. Either way, your body will give you all the information you need to know during your cleanse.

I am a woman who happens to be diabetic and now I am pregnant. I would like to know what foods I should eat and restrain from while I am still pregnant? I am also taking insulin to keep my blood sugar levels low enough as not to harm my baby. They are telling me I need to eat dairy and meat to meet the dietary requirements for a healthy baby. Please help me!

Congratulations on your pregnancy. New life is such a wonderful thing! We recommend that you drink our Pancreas Tea (1-2 cups a day). Eat plenty of cinnamon, ginger, and cayenne pepper. Abstain from dairy products and meat products. If anything, eat meat-less (vegan) alternatives -- you can find plenty in our Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual (EBook) Manual. Eat plenty of nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables. You can eat steamed vegetables and brown and/or wild rice (with vegan chicken if you like). Just switch meat for vegan products and switch to non-dairy products or dairy alternatives (which can be found in the Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual (EBook) manual) in order to receive the necessary nutrition without any harmful side effects. For great nutrition for your baby, we recommend the following Dherbs formulas: Vitamin C formula, ELECTRIC GREENS, and Iodine Formula. For natural sugar, try Stevia, Agave Nectar, and/or Grade B maple syrup.

After I had my baby over a year ago I've had a constant discharge. There is no foul order just thin white. I've been to the Doc four times she says I had Bacterial Vaginosis and treated it with gel.

There is help for you. I would highly recommend that you perform our Female Cleanse and the Full Body Cleanse. Using a gel is only masking the problem. You need to address the root of the problem, and herbs can successfully attack the root of the problem.

I have a question about the Parasite Cleanse. Will the stool contain worms? Will I be able to see them? Will they still be alive?

Your stools will contain DEAD parasites and worm and a stool sample can be taken at a local hospital. It all depends on your situation if you will actually see them in your stools. Most people don't, but a few people have. People mainly see worms (bigger parasites) rather than parasites (microrganistic in nature). Please read "Eliminating The Parasites That You Almost Certainly Have".

I had an appointment yesterday with my Pulmonologist regarding a follow-up CT Scan on my chest. On that CT scan, it was discovered I had (2) lung masses in the right upper lobe closely associated with the suprahilar region, which apparently wasn't there 4 months ago with I had a previous CT scan. The 2nd mass also in same area extends into the mediastinum & most likely represents a malignant bronchogenic neoplasm. A PET scan has been recommended & the doctor immediately sent me to a Thoracic surgeon to discuss surgery options. I've been reading your articles on Cancer & Healing and you talk about using supplements/herbs, etc. In that article you mention at least 20 or so herbs. In your store, do you have and formulas that would combine a lot of these & if so what would you recommend in my place? It goes without saying that I am very frightened right now because I have read like so many others that Lung Cancer is pretty much incurable. Of course I have to go for the PET scan, bone scan to make sure of what the Radiologist found but the Pulmonologist didn't offer very positive outcome.

Please perform our Full Body Cleanse for 20 days. The cleanse will help eliminate impurities in your body that are affecting your health. After you cleanse, take 5 capsules of ELECTRIC GREENS 5-6 times per day, every day.
