21. M’lis Detoxification Program
An individual can safely cleanse 3 days.
Do not detoxify if pregnant or nursing.
If taking prescription drugs- always continue
to take them.
Those under medical treatment need
physician’s approval before beginning any
M’lis program.
Detox
people = responsibility for their own health
A whole approach to life
mind, body and spirit
whole person = every aspect of life affects the body
total well-being = all systems of the body functioning harmoniously
Detoxification is the foundation of all the M’lis programs and is the beginning to developing a heatlhy lifestyle. It will put you on the path of building a strong immune system and cleansing the body, gently and safely and take a huge step towards a healthier lifestyle. .
Digestion from consumption to elimanation should take 24-36 hours
6-30 days due to poor lifestyle
The colon is the large intestine.
human waste disposal
Most of what we eat, breathe, drink, and anything our body is trying to slough off is eliminated through the colon.
Many use Colonics…laxitives….suppositories: easy to be dependant upon them….does not solve the problem, only gives you and “explosion” and the cycle repeats itslef.
Chronic Constipation = varies among people…less than 3x a week, feel like you need to go=can’t, hard stools, don’t eliminate enough,
Facts:
Affected by water, nutrition, activity level, stress, trauma, schedules, age
Bowel movement decrease with age
Vacation promotes constipation (different foods, low water, low activity, strange environment, you delay the ‘urge’,
Poor lifestyle promotes loss of peristaltic action
Medications, (pain relievers, anti-depressants ) side effect
Colon can become clogged with waste
Unhealthy Colon: Colitis, diverticulosis, muscle spasms, muscle prolapse
Encrustation of layers around walls of colon
stagnant waste brings disease, you can imagine the work your colon has to do to elimate waste with a colon like this.
Ballon sacks that protrude outside the colon walls = diverticulosis
Diverticulosis can turn into diverticulitis from infection and abscesses
Swollen tissues that contain veins
Form sac-like bulge into anal canal
Can be treated with dietary changes and in extreme cases, surgery.
Internal = inside the rectum, bleeding is the most common symptom
External = outside the anal canal, can be inflamed and painful
Parasites (Left is pinworm, right is guardia)
Conservative number: Up to 20% of population at any time. (90% of us will experience it sometime in our life)
Diarrhea, stomach cramping, nausea, weight loss, dehydration, flu-like symptoms
Cannot live on their own..they use us as hosts. Variety of insects, worms, single-cell organisms cause parasitic infections.
Comes from Water, food, feces (people don’t wash hands, prepare food) Common
Guardia (in people and pets)
Pinworms: Most common in US. Small, white, half an inch long. They live in rectum and colon. We ingest the eggs. Common with children and people with poor hygiene skills
Roundworms, hook worms
Detoxification works to remove unwanted intestinal invaders

Everything functions more effectively…liver, kidney, blood
Big step toward healthier lifestyle
Those on medication for epilepsy or depression should be careful when detoxifying because it decreases tissue concentration of medications. Always good practice to get approval from primary physician before starting a detox program. Especially those suffering from cancer, epilepsy & heart conditions that require Coumadin.

The body removes invaders through eliminative organs.
Cleansing reactions generally last a few hours to a few days
The healthier the person the more mild the healing crisis
The more the body has to clean up- the harder and longer the healing crisis
Healing crisis is a POSITIVE event!
Your clean body will be very sensitive to foods. Few beers will make you drunk, pizza or sugar will make you feel ill. It takes time for your body to be resistant to unhealthy foods.
