Transcript Detox with the Doc

With Dr. Logan
Let me guide you through
a 7-day science-based
detox program followed by
the Clean 14 program.
Why Detox?
We ingest over 30-50 tons
of food in a lifetime.
•The bioaccumulation of toxins from
food, water and air, continues to
increase and overwhelm the body’s
ability to eliminate.
•Many vague symptoms
develop in patients which may
not always reflect the
underlying effects from buildup
of toxic materials.
Where Do Toxins Come From?
• Environmental Toxins
– Polluted air from factories
– Solvents (paint, cleaning products)
– Pesticides, herbicides, insecticides
– Heavy metals
– Radiation
– Water
– Auto exhaust
Signs that your
detoxification
capacity might
be impaired
•Allergies
•Digestion/Elimination Problems
•Fatigue
•Elevated Cholesterol
•PMS
•Overweight/Underweight
•Asthma
•Anger, Depression, Irritability
•Insomnia
•Blood Sugar and Hormonal
Imbalances
•Muscle Joint Pain
•Skin Disorders
•Chemical
Sensitivities
•Frequent Flus, Colds or Sinus
Infections
Why
Detox?
• Improved Energy
• Weight Loss
• Mental Clarity
• Better Digestion
• Healthy Skin
Why Detox?
• The number of overweight
people in the world now
exceeds the number of
underweight people.
• Diabetes is expected to
strike 1 in 3 U.S. kids born
in the year 2000.
• Diabesity emerging as a worldwide epidemic.
• The youth of today are expected to have
shorter life span’s than their parents.
Why Detox?
• We are leaders in soda
consumption with almost
600 cans per man, woman
and child per year.
• We are the world leaders
in calorie consumption
with nearly 3700 calories
per person per day.
• And would you be surprised that we spend the
most on health care at $5,000 per person per year.
Why Detox?
5% of the
world’s
population lives
in the United
States.
50% of the world’s prescription drugs
are consumed in the United States.
Why Detox?
• Agribusiness is about quantity, not quality.
• Volume of corn production has increased five fold
in the last 30 years on the same acre of land.
• Antioxidant and mineral levels are 50% lower
than 50 years ago.

Roles of the Liver
• Filters blood
• Stores glucose for energy
• Breaks down steroid
hormones
• Produces/secretes bile
• Primary organ of
detoxification in the body
Liver Detox Pathways
The liver eliminates toxins through a
2-step enzymatic process:
Phase I
– Cytochrome P450 (a series of enzymes)
chemically changes fat-soluble toxins into a
more toxic substance called an“intermediary
metabolite”.
– This “intermediate metabolite” is often more
toxic than the original fat-soluble toxin, hence
the need for Phase II.
Liver Detox Pathways
Phase II
– Conjugation (attachment) of specific
molecules onto the “intermediary metabolite”
make it non-toxic and water-soluble so it can
be excreted through the urine or stool.
Liver Detox Pathways
Detoxification Depletes Nutrients
Studies by Dr. John Laseter of AccuChem Laboratories
show that when we inhale a particular chemical, 10%
could go to bone, 15% could go to the liver, 20% could
go to the brain, etc. For the next person the percentages
could be totally different.
•
Individual detoxification capability determines how much of
each chemical is eliminated and how much is stored and where.
•
If we use up too many detox nutrients, without replenishing,
we leave ourselves vulnerable to the next environmental
chemical that comes along.

phase I & II detox
• High dose of antioxidants (Vitamins C, E, zinc)
are free radical scavengers that protect cells
while toxins come out.
