Beneftits of Fasting People who have completed the Neera Detox Diet have reported a remarkable variety of benefits. There can be so many benefits to our health once we detoxify our system, removing the root of illness, toxic overload. Over many years we usually build up toxins in our system to the point that we reach a toxic overload. This stresses our body’s own natural healing ability to the limit and once this overloaded stressed condition occurs our body’s defenses become so weakened that we become susceptible to illness. That is why fasting has been prescribed as a form of healing for so many centuries. It should be remembered that Hippocrates, the father of western medicine, very often prescribed fasting as a course of remedy. People who have completed the Neera Detox Diet and other similar fasting diets have reported a wide variety of benefits including:
These
are just some of the benefits of cleansing and fasting. Through the rest
of this page and web site we hope to share some of the other benefits
and to explain how the Neera Detox Diet works.
Weight Loss Lose 7 to 12 pounds in one week. The Neera Detox Diet was first introduced in the early 1980s as a cleansing program and as a natural and highly effective means of losing excess weight. For anyone who is serious about normalizing his or her weight, Neera Detox is a long-awaited boon. In past tests, 70% of those who followed the diet lost 10-20 pounds in 10 days, while most of the remaining 30% percent lost between 6-10 pounds. During the Neera Detox Diet the body finds its natural balance, shedding excess weight without harming healthy cells. Most of the weight loss comes from the dissolving of fat cells, where most of the body's toxins are stored. The Neera Detox Diet is not recommended for sufferers of anorexia. Should you be slightly underweight, however, do not be fearful of losing a little more. The only materials the body can lose during this program are mucus, excess fat and waste. Healthy tissue will not be affected. If you are slightly underweight you may notice that you will lose a little more, but once you come off the diet your weight will quickly rise to normal. Another benefit of the Neera Detox Diet is that the weight lost usually stays off. This happens for several reasons. First, unlike many other diets the weight lost is not just "water" weight. Most diets that promise dramatic weight loss, like 10 pounds in 2 days, are just diets that force off water weight, weight which will just come back very quickly. The weight that is lost during the Neera Detox Diet is mostly from fat or damaged diseased cells. This is real weight that is lost. Second, most unhealthy foods, foods that tend to make us gain excess fat like processed carbohydrate
Some people worry about the prospect of going without solid foods, yet such fears are groundless. The Neera Detox Diet is a health program, not a fast. A true fast is complete abstinence from food of any kind. The Neera Detox Diet, however, is liquid food - nourishing and energizing. It is very important not to burden the body with solid food during the Neera Detox Diet. Digesting solid food consumes much of the body's energy and overrides many of its other tasks. In the absence of solid food the body can focus its energy on cleansing. Throughout history, experience has shown a periodic abstinence from solid food to be a blessing for the entire organism, the best investment in improved health and a longer natural life span. The body is very energy-efficient. In the absence of newly ingested proteins the body literally lives off itself by a process called autolysis, in which amino acids are extracted from tired and damaged cells, resynthesized and re-used. The old cells are thus effectively disposed of, and the formation of new cells is sped up. The body however, will never consume or damage its own essential tissues or vital organs. Meanwhile, the eliminative organs (lungs, liver, lymphatic system, kidneys and skin) are themselves cleansed, ensuring the rapid expulsion of accumulated metabolic wastes. The digestive, assimilative and protective organs all benefit from a well-deserved rest. In turn, they focus on efficiently cleansing the body. There is a positive effect on all vital physiological, nervous and mental functions. The biochemical and mineral balance of tissues is normalized, and glandular chemistry and hormonal secretions are stimulated. What We Do Consume: The Neera Detox Drink While the actual inner cleansing and rejuvenation is performed by the body itself, the Neera Detox Diet fulfils important functions in assisting this process:
The Full Version The "Full Version" lasting 7-10 days gives you the maximum result by keeping your body in a fasting mode for the fullest length of time. This is the classic version that has been used by thousands of people throughout the world. Some people when thinking about fasting for the first time don't think they can fast for 7-10 days. However, on the Neera Detox Diet it isn't that hard. Whenever we feel hungry, we just have another Neera Drink which fills our stomach and provides us with energy. Also, by the third or fourth day on the diet most people feel so good that continuing for several more days isn't that difficult. (see testimonials)
The 3-5 Day Version The "3-5 Day Version" is still very effective. For those who don't feel they can go for seven days a 3-5 day Neera cleanse still has a great effect of detoxification and moderate weight loss. (see testimonials)
The "Once a Week" Version Most people never give their digestive and eliminative organs a break. Day in and day out they place a continuous load on their system. Taking a break "Once a Week" gives our system a chance to rest and cleanse for a day. Going without solid food for a day isn't that difficult and people who have practiced this program have had good long-term weight-normalization results. (see testimonials) The "Relaxed" Version Another popular variation of the Neera Detox Diet is the "Relaxed Version," during which you simply substitute either breakfast or dinner with 2-3 glasses of the Neera Detox Drink. This lengthens the body's natural cleansing time which occurs at night. It is suggested to do this for up to one month, which will have a good accumulative cleansing effect. This is also a good way of extending the normal program if you wish to keep cleansing. During the "Relaxed Version," try to abstain from sweets, processed foods, red meat, fried foods, refined flour, dairy products, coffee and alcohol. These are all food products that tax our natural digestive/cleansing system and inhibit the body's ability to deal with previously stored toxins and wastes. (see testimonials) The Neera Detox Master Program Many people who have tried the Neera Detox Diet have liked the results so much that they wish to make cleansing and the Neera Detox Diet a regular part of their lives. The Neera Detox Master Program incorporates the benefits of cleansing “Once a Week” plus a twice-yearly multi-day cleanse. Performing a twice yearly multi-day cleanse gives our body a chance to detoxify and heal itself from the stresses put upon it. We gain the maximum results of the Neera Detox Diet, cleansing our bodies of accumulated wastes and toxins and losing excess weight. Performing the “Once a Week” version of the Neera Detox Diet after a multi-day version helps our body to maintain its toxic free condition and is a great on-going cleansing routine. The “Once a Week” version can also be a great way to lead up to the multi-day version of the diet. (see testimonials) Elimination: The Key to Success In order to ensure the success of the Neera Detox Diet, proper elimination is essential. The better the elimination, the better the results. If wastes are not continuously removed throughout the diet they will be reabsorbed. Drink lots of water in addition to the Neera Detox Drink. Expect that you will have to urinate often during the diet. Remember, you are giving your body an inner bath, cleaning it out. Laxative Teas and Salt Water After the first day or two on an all-liquid diet like the Neera Detox Diet, the body most likely will not produce a bowel movement. However, while cleansing, it is important to try to have at least one bowel movement at least once a day. To assist with this, a mild laxative herbal tea is recommended, like the Neera-Lax Tea. Drink one cup of tea in the evening before bed and a glass of salt water in the morning. The laxative tea will help break up solid intestinal wastes, and the salt water will flush them out of the system. Some people find that certain laxative teas induce cramps, so be sure to start with a mild brew when trying it for the first time. Regarding the salt-water drink… The salt-water drink will produce a bowel movement because its salinity level is similar to the salinity of our body and therefore cannot be absorbed inside our digestive track. Our body's salinity is roughly the same as the ocean; we evolved from the ocean and we still carry it around inside us. If we drink water that is the same salinity as the ocean it will pass right through. That is why the salt-water drink is such a great laxative. When mixing the salt-water drink, make sure to use sea salt and not table salt! Finally make sure stay near a restroom for the next half hour. If the taste of the salt water is too strong to handle, you can substitute another cup of the herbal laxative tea instead. We provide enough tea in the Neera-Lax tea bags to drink two cups a day for seven days. Exercise Light exercise is also a great complement to the diet. If you already exercise keep training but take it easy. Athletes in training may experience a reduction in stamina and are advised to cut back 60-70% of normal training intensity for the duration of the diet. Avoid strenuous exercise as intense exertion may encourage toxins to be reabsorbed rather than eliminated. When we engage in vigorous activity the body is forced to call upon extra reserves of energy and synthesizes energy from protein and fat. This is a demanding process distracting the body from its cleansing priorities and when compounded by the release of lactic acid from muscular activity only increases the toxic load. Nevertheless, gentle exercise is very helpful to the cleansing process. The key is finding the right balance of activity and rest. Adequate rest is crucial during the Neera Detox Diet, while resting the body performs its vital cleansing tasks. Far from interfering with your training the Neera Detox Diet is a wise investment for any athlete. Most athletes return to full training after the diet with renewed energy and enthusiasm. You’ll find that your body performs more efficiently when it is cleansed and purified, experiencing higher energy levels and performance. Concluding the Neera Detox Diet Since the digestive system has been resting for up to ten days, come off the Neera Detox Diet carefully and gradually. The most common mistake is to eat too much, too soon. Slowly return to normal eating over two or three days. On the first day, stick with juices such as orange juice. On day two, start the morning with juice and then try some pureed vegetable soup for lunch. By the end of the third day you can try some steamed or raw vegetables. During the first three days, do not eat any meat, fish, eggs, bread or sweets, and try not to drink soft drinks, tea or coffee. If you start eating "normal foods" too soon, your digestive system might revolt. On the fourth day you can eat as you like. If you are coming off a shorter version of the diet you should be able to do so in one day but listen to your body. You will know if you are coming off too fast. Take your time. You will probably notice that your taste buds are much more alive after cleansing and you will really enjoy the taste and energy of juices, soups, and then vegetables.
Repeating the Program We recommend that you cleanse at least twice a year. The Neera Detox Diet can be repeated more often but to be safe you should take at least a month between 3+ day cleanses. Many people find the results of the Neera Detox Diet so beneficial that they repeat it frequently and incorporate the diet into their lives. People have reported tremendous health results with repeated cleanses and with ongoing cleansing programs like the Neera Detox Master Program. (more details) Illness and Rejuvenation The essence of perfection is within us. As the flower blossoms from the bud, so we grow from within… These days we seem to have lost faith in our own body's miraculous rejuvenative powers and we seek to remedy our illnesses not by removing the causes but by imposing extra additives in the form of drugs and more chemicals. Frequently these drugs merely suppress the symptoms of illness, without attacking the root of problem. The result is a repression of the illness deeper into our system, with a later reappearance of the problem either in the same form or in another form elsewhere in the organism. The Neera Detox Diet has not been designed to cure specific ailments, but to help eliminate the root of illness by clearing away accumulated wastes, poisons, and mucus. The diet can be effective in helping to clear colds and infections, and to help bolster the immune system to protect against possible future complaints. If you are already ill or have very low energy, you should check with your health practitioner before commencing the Neera Detox Diet. In some circumstances, it may be advisable to start with a two or three day diet, extending it later as strength is restored. The Challenge - It's All In the Mind! The main challenge of the diet is mental. Because we are so used to eating whenever we like and whatever we like, the discipline of going on an all-liquid diet can seem a bit daunting. Remember, whenever you get hungry, just have some more of the Neera Detox Drink. This will satisfy your hunger. Also, remember that once you come off the diet you can eat solid food again. One thing you will notice while you are on the diet is that you have a lot of extra time. Normally a good deal of our day is spent either preparing to eat, preparing food or eating. In contrast making the Neera Drink is very simple. How often have you wished that you had more time? Your wish is finally granted. Take advantage of it. Get that house project done, go for a brisk walk, see the sunset, call that old friend. Whatever you do, have some fun. Remember having a good, healthy mental attitude is far more important to your health than the cleansing of any toxins.
Drinking Juices and Teas Sticking with the Neera Drink is very important during the Neera Detox Diet. The lemon juice provides a critical element in the body's cleansing process and the Madal Bal Tree Syrup provides more nourishment and energy than any juice. However, it is fine to drink an occasional juice or herbal tea, like peppermint or chamomile, during the diet. Just make sure not to eat any solid food, milk, sodas, alcoholic beverages, etc… Try to stick with the Neera Drink as much as possible.
Taking
Medication
Unless you are directed by your physician to stop, you should keep taking any prescribed medications during the Neera Detox Diet.
Some Cleansing Symptoms There are some normal symptoms that will occur during the diet. During the first couple of days, as stored toxins and wastes are released from the body, they will circulate through the bloodstream before being eliminated. This may cause some discomfort in the form of headaches, moments of dizziness, slight tiredness and weakness. Also, any chronic skin disorders may temporarily worsen in the early stages of the diet as toxins are released through the skin. Take these symptoms as a positive sign that the Neera Detox Diet is working. Persevere! The crucial time is usually around the third or fourth day. By this time the body will have adjusted to an all-liquid diet, and most of the discomfort caused by the release of stored toxins should have dissipated. During those first couple of days, be prepared to take some extra rest. If you think that you are carrying a lot of toxins, it might be a good idea to start the Neera Detox Diet over a weekend. By the fourth day, half of your task has been completed. Now the body just gets healthier and healthier, eliminating the released toxins. This is when you'll probably start feeling really good. You'll probably feel very clear, light and energized. You may notice that you need less sleep, and your body will gain a new strength and vitality. Any skin disorders that appeared or got worse during the first couple of days will now start to clear up. Remember, the skin, our body's largest organ, plays an important role in elimination. We pass many toxins through the skin. By the end of the Neera Detox Diet, your skin will become clearer than ever before.
The Tongue: A Cleansing Gauge One way the progress of the cleansing process can be gauged is by observing the color of the tongue. Initially the tongue will be pinkish. As the first few days of the diet progress, a coating will usually appear which is at first whitish then yellowish in color as toxins are released from the body. This may grow up to the third or fourth day, and it will then slowly disappear. You can remove this coating by brushing the tongue with a toothbrush or scraping it with a spoon. Your tongue will regain its pinkish color when the cleansing process is complete. Although for most people this will not take longer than ten days, for some it may take longer. If the coating remains at the end of the diet, it is advisable to repeat the Neera Detox Diet a month or two later. Having undergone a basic purification, the coating should disappear more quickly the second time. Seven Maxims of Neera Detox
Maintaining Good Health You have done your mind, body and spirit a great service by completing the Neera Detox Diet. You have cleansed your body, lost excess weight, and increased your fortitude and will-power. Now it's important to use that increased fortitude and will-power to stick with an improved diet, especially if you are trying to keep off excess weight. There are many different ideas as to the appropriate diet to follow on a permanent basis: fat-free diets, all-protein diets, zone diets, etc.… There is no one diet that is right for everyone. Different body types have different requirements. However, there are certain basic principles that we believe are important to follow on any diet.
Try to keep down the amounts of processed foods that you eat. Processed sugars, refined foods, and saturated fatty foods all can have a detrimental effect on the body, as can alcohol and too much caffeine. Listen to your body and try to stick with natural, whole foods. Try eating lots of fresh vegetables and experiment with different combinations until you find the right long-term nutritional plan for you.
