Reviews of DetoxTheSuperfoodCo



So, as you can see, many foods and beverages that you thought you�d have to give up can easily remain a part of your everyday diet. Foods you will want to avoid, however, include those that will contribute to fat accumulation, such as white rice, potatoes and white bread. Instead, add wholegrain bread, oats, rye and wheat germ to your diet.

I know you�re probably not fond of the word �exercise,� as many women don�t understand the benefits of a regular exercise routine � both physical and emotional � but you will be shocked and amazed by the positive results you�ll see by devoting a small amount of time to regular physical activity. You�ll lose the weight you�ve gained around your mid section, and you�ll become toned, fit and thin. You�ll also have much more energy, which is likely a result of being in better shape, as well as knowing that you�ve accomplished a great deal, which leads to so much more self confidence than most of us are accustomed to having.

Gotu Kola, also known Centella Asiatica, comes come from a slender creeping plant indigenous to the swampy areas of India, Sri Lanka, and Madagascar. It is also grown in Australia, South America, and even the south eastern United States.

Othe rbenefits of Gotu Kola include an increase in longevity, prevention of memory loss, and its aphrodisiac properties.

Gotu Kola may be, as a result of its strengthening action on gastric mucosal lining, and the suppressing of free radical damage, an anti-ulcerative.

The herb has been used as a sedative, an anticonvulsant, and analgesic (pain reliever). Gotu Kola may also act as an antibacterial against various bacteria, includingas pseudo moans, pyocyaneus, trichidermia, and mentogrophytes.

Aging, arteriosclerosis, depression, and headaches, high blood pressure, and hypoglycemia can also benefit from the use of Gotu Kola.

The benefits of Gotu Kola benefits, in contrast to those of many other herbs, have been verified in various clinical studies.

Many studies, as the book indicates, offer evidence that Gotu Kola offers has some excellent health benefits.

Because gotu Kolas is not an essential nutrient, it has no RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance). We have found, however, found some very rare side effects asociatedto this herb.
They include extra sensitivity to sunlight and increased susceptiblity to headaches. And, when applied on the skin, Gotu Kola can cause rashes on certain individuals.

If you are considering Gotu Kola supplment, stay with a reasonable daily dosage of around 75 mgs to 100 mgs.

Pregnant or nursing women should avoid taking Gotu Kola extract, unless advised otherwise from their physician.

How to Maximize Gotu Kola Benefits

1. Always buy your Gotu Kola supplements from pharmaceutical GMP compliant facilities, which comply with the strictest manufacturing standards. Because nutritional supplements production, in the U.S., has become largely unregulated, consumers of health products have only a 20% chance of buying products containing contains the actual ingredients stated on their labels, or worse yet, one that is not contaminated with harmful toxins.

2. Make sure the calcium product does not contain any fillers or additives like sugar, starch, gluten, or silica, or any artificial colors or flavors. They are harmful to your health.

3. Use Gotu Kola that is made using standarized herbal extracts. Standardized extracts contain the highest amount of the active ingredient of the herb, and, because of this, have the best potency and best possible therapeutic benefits. We have tried many herbs over the years, and our best health benefits were derived from herbs using standarized extracts. Most manufacturers of nutritional supplements do not, because of their expense, use standarized extracts.
