Welcome to Day 16 of the Purification Program.
“It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.” – Aristotle
With all of the diet trends and new health information constantly being presented to you, how do you know what to believe? Well, Google is your friend! Do not be afraid to challenge anything we have presented and research it for yourself. The findings we have presented to you and will continue to present to you over the coming days are the result of our intense research into optimal health through nutrition. We continually challenge the ‘norm’ to ensure that we do not simply believe the marketing of some pharmaceutical company, food manufacturer or even supposed ‘health agencies’. Thus, we encourage you to do the same. You should feel free to challenge things that do not instinctively sound or ‘feel’ right to you. Over the years we have found that when you discover the truth (for example the way we feel about whole food nutrition) it just resonates deep within you.
Enjoy your research! 
How Should I Feel Today?
You should continue to feel wonderful today. As always, if you have questions about something that is concerning you, please contact Brien or contact our resident purification specialist Allison at [email protected].
Weight Loss
Remember to limit your fruit, sweet potatoes and yam intake. As we have said numerous times, cruciferous vegetables are your best friends. Drinks lots of water, exercise and sweat! Perhaps you have lost some weight, but remember, you are not done losing weight on the program. If you have just begun to lose weight in the last several days, keep up the good work and you will continue to see positive results.
Reminders
Don’t forget our first 3 suggestions:
| 1. | If you have an upcoming physical or are on medications you would like to possibly come off of, schedule an appointment with your doctor before you come off the program. Your test results will show vast improvement and this is your opportunity to put your best foot forward. |
| 2. | Plan to SLOWLY reintroduce foods into your diet. Don’t think that you can simply indulge on Day 22 and your body will comply. |
| 3. | Let your friends, family and co-workers know that this was not a diet. Inform them about the lifestyle changes you are making and you’ll be surprised how much support you will get! |
