MYTH # 1
If I follow a healthy diet, I don’t need to cleanse and detoxify.
FACT
Even if you do eat and drink all the right things, you will still benefit from regular cleansing because it is not only the toxins in your food and drink that can impact your body. There are also toxins in the air that we breathe and in various products that we use every day. Also, reducing intestinal transit time helps to shorten the length of time toxic material remains in our body.

MYTH # 2
Detox is synonymous with harsh laxatives and invasive enemas
FACT
It is important to look for a cleansing and detox product that is gentle, natural and safe that works gradually with your body’s own detox ability and normal patterns of elimination.

A natural detox product like TruDtox™ offers gentle cleansing without harsh stimulant laxatives found in many cleansing products. It can be taken regularly without resulting in bowel dependency.

MYTH # 3
Detox is not safe.
FACT
A regular cleansing and detox product with natural, gentle ingredients is safe for most people. Pregnant and nursing women are advised to consult their physician before using any detox product.

MYTH # 4
It is important to fast during a cleansing and detox program.
FACT
Complete fasting is not recommended during a detox programme as maintaining a healthy diet at all times is beneficial to our body. You should drink a lot of water – at least 8 glasses a day – and include lots of fresh vegetables, fruits and whole grains in your diet.

MYTH # 5
Detox is just for the liver and colon.
FACT
While it is important to cleanse your liver and colon, you should not neglect your other body systems as well. TruDtox™ offers a natural solution to cleanse not only the liver and gastrointestinal system, but also the gall bladder, kidney, blood as well as parasite cleansing.

MYTH # 6
It’s not necessary to cleanse and detoxify all the time.
FACT
Ongoing exposure to toxins in the food we eat, water we drink and air we breathe means that toxins are constantly being built up in our bodies. Regular detox is important and the key to good health.

MYTH # 7
Detox is expensive and requires a visit to a clinic.
FACT
Safe and effective, a complete body detox product such as TruDtox™ is affordable and available at all pharmacies and selected medical halls. Be sure to choose a product without stimulant laxatives eg. senna and cascara, which can create bowel dependency, deplete vitamins, minerals and enzymes as well as leave the user feeling more drained and fatigue.

MYTH # 8
I can cleanse my body in the weekend.
FACT
Detox should be gentle and done on a regular basis. A good detox product like TruDtox™ stimulates your body’s detox organs. Used regularly, it helps to restore our body’s own natural detox functions without resulting in dependency.

MYTH # 9
Fasting is just as effective as detox.
FACT
Fasting is not recommended as a way to detoxify for a variety of reasons. It leads to the release of additional toxins in your body, puts stress on your body and does not bring about the desired cleansing. During fasting, you also lose valuable protein, water and nutrients.

MYTH # 10
Toxins are always evident to the senses.
FACT
The environment around us is glutted with many toxins you cannot see, smell, taste or feel.
