Yogi, I am happy to send you the info but could you pm me your email addy? I have all the info in a pdf file.

Thanks!

Edited to say that itis not the exact same, it just very very similar to the 9 day program and will save you a lot of money. It equals out to be about $12 per cleanse after you buythe stuff you need for it.Edited by: raynasmom

Hi Meg,

I'd like to get the information too, please?

If you are comparing it to "I" and purporting it to be "similar but cheaper", as someone whose livelihood is this program, I'd like to get the details.

If the program is only similar in the time frame, I don't think the comparison is a fair claim to make- especially when you are claiming it is "very, very simliar".

Does the program include 240+ nutrients and trace minerals? Is it organic and all-natural? Does it include live digestive enzymes, adaptogens, probiotics?
Is it monitored by a panel of medical professionals? Does it replace 68 meals with 100% of the nutrition required by the body? Undenatured whey protein? Natural accelerators? Blood sugar regulation? Money back guarantee?

Is there a list of ingredients in the pdf that you have?
Please email to [email protected]

Thanks!

To your best health,
--Kitt

Kitt, It is very very similar in that it contains all the same ingredients plus more of what the Isagenix cleansefor lifedrink contains. I will email you the info and let you know how you can compare the nutritional information.Edited by: raynasmom

All I know about cleanses right now is the Mastercleanse. I did it for 15 days and it's been a week since I've been off it. I MISS IT!!!

I do have a friend who loves the Isagenix cleanse.

I like how that yearlong detox looks!! I'm going to copy and paste it so I don't lose it. :) Thanks Vilma!

I did the Dr. Natura cleanse for one month. I really didn't see any big improvements in my health, but it was easy. I have also tried the Isagenix, but only made it halfway. I tried during a very stressful time of my life and couldn't handle it! But I find the Isa shake very yummy!

I'd like to hear about this cleanse also! I had great luck w/ 'I' last summer. If something works as good and tastes as good and is cheaper, I'm in!

Kitt B Fit 05-30-2007 06:39 AM

Meg &amp; All,

This program has very very little in common with "I" other than the fact that it is 9 days.

It has no protein. ZERO protein. When starved of protein for any length of time, the body begins to cannibalize lean muscle.

There is a lot of sugar in this program. Basically, the "cleanse" consists of depriving your system of protein and nutrition while consuming sugar and some vitamins.

The developer has taken copyrighted material from "I" and is using this in the pdf, as well as making dangerous and fraudulent claims.

Caveat Emptor!

Someone sent me a copy to look over. I will say that it would NOT be a cleanse that I would choose to do, but technically it does have protein. With the "shakes" that is used, there's about 10 grams of protein per shake, which only = 20 grams per day, so for the healthy meal, you'd have to make sure to eat a good source of protein. BUT you are right - those shakes are loaded with sugar and I believe they also contain aspartame http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif
And on the 4 cleansing and fasting days (I think there are 4), I guess you could get a little protein from the juice you use to mix the powder, but again, it wouldn't be too much because most veggie and/or fruit juices aren't a good source of protein. But when someone is fasting, they're usually not worried about that, are they? I'm asking honestly because I don't know - I've never fasted.

Yogi 05-30-2007 07:33 AM



Cleansing and fasting are different. This is NOT afast. IMHO it is worse. At least in a fast your system can shut down and rest.
But where do you get the 10 g of protein per shake from? Vitamin powder has zero and Slimfast Optima has 2g???
