"Many people will get up before dawn to check the stock market, work until
all hours of the night on a project for work or church...but they will not
remember, or think it is important enough, to feed their own bodies." Dr.
Jesse Hanley, MD, and co-author of Tired of Being Tired, Women's
Passages, and Attention Deficit Disorder.
Everyone wants to remain youthful and live forever. But is a long life really
the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow if you're feeling vaguely unhealthy
much of the time? And why do so many of us feel lousy when we still think
of ourselves as young and
vibrant? Two words: nutrient
deficiency.
You can't get away without a
multiple vitamin and mineral
supplement," says Dr.
Hanley. "The ground is so
depleted that not even the
bugs can live in our refined
wheat and white flour
anymore!"
The simple fact of the matter
is that our bodies are not
getting what they need...and even if we were to suddenly adopt a diet that
made us poster children for healthy living, without nutrient supplementation,
we will always remain vitamin deficient.


Page 6

Is living a long life a thing of the past? Unless many people are willing to
change their approach to nutrition, the life expectancy for today's youth will
be a different story. Many medical institutions do not expect children to live
as long as their parents because of obesity, toxicity, and the deficiencies
inherent in the Standard American Diet.
The state of our food, coupled with our dietary choices, has rendered us
toxic and depleted of the vitamins and minerals we need to function and
thrive. Most of the food we eat contains barely half of the vitamins and
minerals it did fifty years ago; today's high yield wheat crops offer only half
the protein they did a century ago.
Processing methods by their very nature deplete food of nutrients. And
the length of time it takes to pick, transport, and stock onto grocers'
shelves, means food has lost much of its nutritional value by the time it
finally gets to our plates.
While alternatives such as organic foods are free of dangerous GMOs
(genetically modified organisms) and many toxic pesticides and fertilizers,
they are far from perfect as it can take decades for soil to fully recover from
years of abuse.
But in spite of all the doom and gloom, it's possible to turn the deficiency
tide, and learn how to take care of ourselves in a whole new way.


Page 7
First, forget what you thought you knew about adequate vitamin intake.
Take a fresh approach to your health likely, your old approach doesn't
take into account what experts are discovering about the sorry condition of
our soil, the depleted state of processed food, and our bodies' agonizing
struggle to overcome vitamin and mineral deficiency.
Everyone on the planet at some point in their lives will require extra
vitamins and minerals to compensate for deficiencies in the Standard
American Diet. In times of special need during pregnancy, periods of
overwhelming stress, or illness nutrients are good therapy, so it's vital to
update your knowledge base.
For example, consider the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for
vitamins and minerals. These figures were calculated in the 1940s when
soil was healthy, and food refining and processing was relatively rare.
Today, our vitamin and mineral needs far exceed the circa World War II
recommendations handed out by many health practitioners.
And all the hype about low-fat, fat-free, sodium-free, vitamin-enriched, and
on and on...it's all just bunk, part of food companies' marketing strategies to
convince you to buy their products. The truth is, all the processing to make
food other than what it naturally is simply removes the life-giving nutrients
our bodies need.
Real food free of unnecessary additives and processing is the simple
secret to health and longevity, so beware of terms like vitamin enriched. All
this means is that the food was stripped bare of its goodness during
processing, and then something was added in a futile attempt to make up
the loss, and give it some sort of bare minimum value.
By midlife, an overwhelming number of Americans will have developed a
chronic illness or contracted some form of cancer due to diet deficiencies.
But why wait for a health crisis to start giving your body what it needs now?
After all, regular maintenance is always preferable to crisis management.


Page 8

Remember, when implementing dietary changes, take it slowly, pay
attention to how your body responds and, if possible, consult a health
practitioner.
By giving up the Standard American Diet, and supplementing your new
multiple vitamin and mineral regimen with individualized care that factors in
age, gender, weight, and your unique health conditions, you may end up
feeling better than you ever have in your life...for the rest of your life!

11 Ways to Beat Vitamin and Mineral Deficiency

1. If you cannot get fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, opt for frozen over canned.
2. Avoid processed foods, fake foods, and junk foods.
3. Always eat real food, and never buy anything that contains hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated
oil i.e. never eat anything containing trans fats.
4. Read the label. If you don't know what a word means, or cannot pronounce it, don't eat it! Opt
instead for something real.
5. Don't buy products with a long shelf life the better they do on the shelf, the worse they are for you.
6. Never eat foods that have been enriched. They are completely devitalized during processing.
7. Avoid food that has been engineered. Nearly all processed food contains GMOs.
8. Some nutritionists recommend kelp tablets / granules, or using unrefined sea salt as an added
mineral source. Ordinary table salt has been stripped of vital trace elements during refining.
9. A digestive aid or probiotic assists with nutrient absorption, increasing your nutrient intake.
10. Try an herbal colon cleanse. Cleansing can help you eliminate the toxic build up that occurs from
years of eating processed foods.
11. A high quality, daily multiple vitamin / mineral supplement is essential. You can be assured by
starting with a multiple that you're taking the right combination, which enables vitamins and
minerals to work synergistically in your metabolic and enzymatic systems.

The most pressing question people have about bowel movements is, "Am I
officially "constipated" and how do I know what's normal?"
Bowel movements and constipation are not exactly water-cooler
conversation, so most people don't know if their situation is classified as
"constipation", or how many bowel movements they ought to be having
each day. No one really likes to think or talk about what's coming out of
their rear end (well, almost no one over the age of twelve), but how often
you go can have a dramatic effect on your health.

Whenever the
subject comes
around to
constipation, people
invariably ask how
often they should be
having a bowel
movement. Some
people have three
or more bowel
movements a day,
while others only
have one a week
(you are definitely
constipated!).
On the one hand,
someone who has a bowel movement every few days may feel constipated
if they haven't had a movement in a week. On the other hand, there are
people who believe they are constipated if they don't go every day.


Page 10
The medical community is no help either. Depending on the source, they
suggest that fewer than three bowel movements per week qualifies as
constipation, or that someone is constipated if their stool is hard and/or
difficult to pass.
So is normal once a day or three times a week?
To get an idea of what is normal or "not constipation", we can turn to three
teachers.

Most animals will have a bowel movement soon after they eat a major
meal. You can train a puppy to go outside by keeping them in a tight
enclosure for half an hour after they eat, and then take them outside. Birds
are famous for going while they are eating. Likewise, cats, dogs, goldfish,
horses, and other animals all go shortly after they have eaten. Domestic
animals suffer more constipation than wild animals because of the foods
we feed them.

Small children also follow this pattern and can help us to determine what is
normal. Breast-fed infants, especially, have a bowel movement with every
large feeding. Parents can often time when their toddlers will go to the
bathroom. They know that shortly after breakfast or lunch, their children will
be headed to the bathroom, especially if they are running around and
active. Much fewer children suffer with constipation than adults.

Another method we can use to uncover what is normal is to look at people
who live in non-western cultures, and who eat a diet that is tied to their
environment. Scientists who study these people note that they typically
have two to three bowel movements a day, and the movements are usually
much heavier than the stool of someone who eats a typical Western diet.


Page 11
People in these cultures would scratch their heads at the concept of
constipation. It just doesn't make sense to them. Non-western people don't
have large stacks of reading material next to where they go to the
bathroom because they don't sit and wait for a movement to happen...it just
happens.
Taking our cue from these teachers, we find that a natural number of bowel
movements is probably between two and three a day one for each major
meal of the day. For health reasons, it is good to have at least one bowel
movement a day...if you are having less than you could be classified as
suffering with constipation.

Some four million Americans experience constipation on a regular basis;
more than half that number will visit a doctor each year with constipation as
a major complaint. Constipation tends to happen more
often in the elderly and in pregnant women, but it can
strike people of all ages. At last count, Americans were
spending over $700 million dollars a year on laxatives!
The first major reason for so much constipation in the
United States is that we are trained not to go to the
bathroom when we have the urge. Remember when you
were young and in school? You couldn't get up and go
to the bathroom any time you wanted to. After you ate
lunch and were sitting in class, you'd get the signal from your body that it
was time to go. But did you go? No, you sat there and ignored what your
body was telling you.
It is rare for an animal to hold onto their stool for very long. We have
muscles and the ability to hold on to our stool, but in the wild world, this is a
rare occurrence. Most animals and babies go when they have to go. We,
however, are taught to hold it until the time is right.


Page 12
The problem with this type of training is that the body eventually gets the
message; it will stop telling you that it is time to go to the bathroom. The
muscles that hold back stool also become stronger and better at keeping
stool from coming out. It becomes a vicious cycle.
Another reason for the epidemic number of people who are constipated in
the United States is the Standard American Diet. The stool of people living
in native cultures is full of fiber. This means that the bowel movements they
have are larger and bulkier. A larger stool is easier to pass.
Much of the food we eat in the United States is made from ground up
seeds such as bread, cereals, cake, and other foods made from flours.
Eating grains is fine, but it is much healthier to eat them in whole form the
way most people eat rice. The difference is that eating grains that have
been ground makes for stool that is hard and compacted.
Imagine dirt or soil. If there is a high proportion of organic material called
humus or fiber in the soil, it is light and airy; if there is no organic material,
we call it clay. Your bowel movements are the same; they can either be
light and bulky or clay-like, depending on what you are eating.
Another reason for all the constipation in the United States is that most
people in our culture don't take care of their bowels by giving them a rest
(more on this later).

The medical community denies that there is anything really wrong with
having a bowel movement every few days. I disagree.
The problems with constipation are many. The cells that make up the walls
of the large intestine (the colon) are very tough, but even they can't handle
constant abuse. Stool contains many waste products and these can affect
the colon's cells.
Does cancer arise from this long-term contact between stool and the
colon's cells? No one can say for sure, but it certainly doesn't help to foster
good health. Are you at a higher risk for colon cancer if you are


Page 13
constipated? The answer is yes. You are two to three times more likely to
develop colon cancer if you are experiencing constipation enough to
warrant using laxatives. This risk is higher for women than men and higher
in black women than other women.
Other diseases are also more likely if you are constantly constipated
including hemorrhoids, which can be caused by straining during a bowel
movement. Anal fissures are caused when a hard stool actually rips the
tissue on the inside of the anus.
Severe complications from constipation include rectal prolapse where the
intestinal lining is pushed from the anal opening. Diverticulitis, an out-
pouching of the lining of the colon, is complicated or created by
constipation. Fecal impaction is a potentially harmful condition where the
stool becomes so stuck that it has to be removed manually.
While appendicitis is thought to arise from infection, the incidence is higher
in people who are constantly constipated. In fact, the amount of fiber in a
child's diet is directly related to the chances of getting appendicitis.

Clearly, being constipated is no fun for anyone, and it's a condition that can
have long-lasting effects on your health. Be aware that many drugs and
some diseases can cause you to become constipated. Even if your
constipation is caused by drugs or a disease, you can find relief by
following this action plan, but be sure to check with your doctor before
beginning any plan.

Okay, fiber is boring. It isn't flashy like some other supplements that you
can take, but it is essential for your health. Not only will fiber add bulk to


Page 14
your diet, which can reduce constipation, but fiber also plays many other
roles in the body.
Fiber is what helps to ensure that many toxins leave your body. Fiber has a
way of grabbing on to other molecules. When your body wants to get rid of
something, it sends it down your intestines. If there is enough fiber, that
molecule is taken out of the body. If there is not enough fiber, that molecule
is often reabsorbed.
Fiber also provides a food source to the bacteria in your gut. The bacteria
munch the fiber and we enjoy the benefits of the vitamins and nutrients that
are extracted.
High fiber foods include vegetables, fruits, and grains. Remember, consider
eating grains in their whole form and not always ground up as flour. A fiber
supplement is also a great addition to your health plan. Try mixing it in a
smoothie or your orange juice every morning.

How many times have you heard that you should drink eight glasses of
water a day? Yes, water is important.
What most people don't realize is that water is vital to consistent bowel
movements. The more water you have in your body, the easier it is to have
a bowel movement. If you aren't drinking enough water then, the body
takes water from your stool, which results in dry, hard bowel movements.
How do you know you are getting enough water? Look to your urine. If your
urine is bright yellow, then you are not drinking enough water. You want
your urine to be close to water-color. Remember that certain vitamins will
turn your urine bright yellow, so this color-test may not always work.


Page 15
Remember that you have trained your brain not to remind you that you
need to go to the bathroom! Well, you can re-train your brain by sitting on
the toilet half an hour after eating.
While you may feel silly sitting there, this kind of training can really work.
Take a book or some other reading material and spend about five to ten
minutes just sitting on the toilet after your meal.

We eat food every day. While that may sound normal, it is not. Every wild
animal on the earth experiences days when they don't have food. While
this thought may strike horror into your heart, it is actually healthy to take a
break; especially for your colon.
The best way to experience this kind of break (and still eat) is to cleanse
your colon. A colon cleanse is rejuvenating and can put your colon back
into shape. Many people who use colon cleansing report that their
constipation is gone after a good cleanse. In fact, when constipation returns
it is often a signal from your body that it is time to cleanse your colon.

Taking a walk is a great way to stimulate a bowel movement. Any kind of
exercise will work, but the best are walking and running.
You can't lose with exercise, there are so many additional benefits that
everyone should exercise as much as they can.


Page 16

Being constipated is no way to go through life. It is uncomfortable,
inconvenient, and unhealthy. Constipation is a discomfort that no one
should have; it is a completely treatable condition. The solution is not that
hard. You need to take care of your gut like you take care of the rest of
your body.
A colon cleanse a few times a year, adding fiber to your diet, and getting
enough exercise and water can break the cycle of having infrequent bowel
movements. The investment you make in taking care of your colon can
have long-term payoffs in improved health and a more comfortable life.


Page 17

Almost everyone has parasites. It's simply a fact of life. Even Dr. Oz says:
"90% of humans will have a problem with parasites in their lifetime."

Parasites are not just something that other people get a malady reserved
for citizens of developing countries. Everywhere we go, during just about
everything we do, North Americans are vulnerable to parasitic infestation.
The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies parasites as among the
six most dangerous diseases that infect humans. Parasites outrank cancer
as the number one global killer, and account for many of the digestive woes
from which people suffer.

The CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention)
estimates that over sixty million people in the United
States are likely infected with Toxoplasma gondii, a
parasite associated with raw meat and contact with cat
feces.
A report on food borne parasites prepared for the Food
Research Institute at the University of Wisconsin
Madison cited an estimated two and a half million cases of food and
waterborne Giardia lamblia and three million cases of Cryptosporidium
parvum in the U.S. alone. Both protozoan parasites are transmitted through
drinking water contaminated with the fecal material of infected persons.
And while only a minimal number of cases are detected and reported,
some estimate that approximately fifty million American children are
infected with worm parasites.

13 Symptoms of a Parasitic
Infestation
Sometimes you can be infected without
having symptoms; however, there are
often signs, including:
1. Allergies to many different
types of foods
2. Anemia (low red blood count)
3. Bloating/abdominal swelling
4. Bloody stools
5. Bouts of diarrhea and
inconsistent bowel habits
6. Flu-like symptoms such as
coughing, wheezing, and fever
7. Foul-smelling stools that get
worse in the afternoon and
evening
8. Fever
9. Gas and cramping
10. Itching around the anus,
especially at night.
11. Nausea
12. Vomiting
13. Weight loss with a ravenous
appetite

Your intestines provide the perfect breeding ground for parasites, who
enjoy making their homes nestled within impacted waste as well as in the
linings of colon walls.
Living inside our intestines, these microorganisms gain the upper hand by
virtue of their sheer numbers both in kind and in population. They thrive
because of the unique ways in which they have adapted their life cycles in
order to ensure the perpetuation of their species within their unsuspecting
hosts: us.
The three major groups of parasites include
protozoans (single-celled organisms),
nematodes (roundworms), and cestodes
(tapeworms). There are numerous parasites
common to North America ranging from
microscopic protozoans and Cyclospora
cayetanensis sometimes called the
yuppie disease because of outbreaks in the
United States resulting from fecally-
contaminated imported raspberries to
macroscopic multi-cellular worms and
nematodes such as hookworm, pinworm,
and whipworm.

Parasites range from the stuff of late night
horror shows measuring in at several feet
in length to those that are invisible to the

naked eye. And while they are fond of the colon, this is not the only place
parasites can be found. Just
about any part of your body is
vulnerable to infestation: the
lungs, liver, esophagus, brain,
blood, muscles, joints,
skin...and even your eyes!
There are more than a
hundred different types of
parasites who enjoy living out
their lives inside of human
beings. In the United States
alone, one-third of nearly six
thousand fecal specimens
tested came back positive for
nineteen species of intestinal
parasites at the Parasitology Center, Inc. (PCI) in Tempe, Arizona.
Laboratory methods have progressed considerably in the last decade, and
can provide various forms of parasitic testing supported by the CDC.
Unfortunately, so far there is not one laboratory style of testing that covers
all of the commonly known parasites. And while lab testing has come a
long way, PCI is still the only laboratory in the United States specializing in
parasitology testing.
It's important to remember that tests aren't conclusive unless they are
positive, which could require the taking of many different specimens, at
least three of each kind: blood, serum stool, and urine. Testing can become
a time-consuming venture as much repetition can be required, and with so
many different types of parasites, test results can be vague, inconclusive,
and expensive.

Parasite Cleansing Case Studies

Read what Puristat users are saying about their experiences with flushing out parasitic infestations
through colon cleansings.
"I saw something in my stool..."
"I could not believe the things that came out of me, and how much energy I had when I had finished
this program. I saw something alive in my stool, as well as a lot of deposits, and mucus stuff. I never
dreamed such gross stuff was inside my body. Thank you, Puristat, for introducing me to this cleansing
program." Amanda C.
"I saw worms in my..."
"I am completely grossed out and disgusted with what just occurred, but so thankful it did. I just had a
bowel movement, and looked into the toilet before flushing (why, I don't know). I saw worm-like things
in my stool. I was so freaked I flushed immediately before I really got a good look. The experience
actually made me almost throw up, but I am glad your program is helping me to rid my body of
whatever is in there. Yuck!" Melanie B.
"I passed worms..."
"I passed three worms in the first three days with your program. I can't believe what is coming out of
me! I feel great, and have more energy than I have had in a long time; I feel so much less bloated. My
tummy looks flatter than before, too. I'm telling everyone about this product!" Michelle W.
"Some sort of bug..."
"I had gone to Mexico and picked up some sort of bug, was very bloated, and had a lot of gas. I was
quite uncomfortable. I purchased my first Puristat kit, and had great results and relief from my
symptoms."
"I have my second order coming and will be using it right away. Then I'll wait a while to do the cleanse
again - but I will do it again! In the meantime I will be telling everyone about Puristat." JN

Accepting the fact that parasites are nearly unavoidable, as well as
recognizing the kinds of environments parasites enjoy and how they are
transmitted, is the key to ridding yourself of them, and preventing further
infestations.
First, it's important to flush out your gastrointestinal (GI) system; a clean,
hydrated, and toned colon goes a long way toward discouraging parasites
to make their home in your intestines, as well as works to alleviate the
unpleasant symptoms you are experiencing while under attack by a
parasitic infestation.
Coping with parasites is best handled with a 4-Step Approach, which
includes...

Most everyone has parasites. They love life in the human colon because
they thrive on human waste. So why not use common sense wisdom and
clean up our colons regularly with colon cleanses and by extension take
care of the rest of our bodies in the process?
One of the most effective ways to begin ridding yourself of parasites is with
a detoxification of your entire body, starting with your colon. Colonic
irrigation and herbal cleansing can help to remove parasites, mucus, and
toxins that have built up in your colon.
By flushing out impacted waste, passing stool is easier, transit times are
improved, the unlucky parasites will have less time to take their foothold,

Step 4: Know Sources - Preventing Re-infestation


Page 22
and there will be nothing left for them to feed on. This means your body will
become an inhospitable host, reducing the likelihood of further parasitic
infestation.
Numerous societies around the globe use natural alternative medicines
derived mainly from plants for treatment of common ailments. Herbs have
been used for thousands of years because of their proven track record for
successfully purging parasites from the body. They help to increase the
wave-like motion in the colon that propels waste along, while at the same
time toning colon muscles.
Many herbs are more effective, and easier on the system, when used in
conjunction with other herbs. A cleansing program that combines a variety
of herbs in order to purge parasites from the body is preferable.
Puristat's colon cleanse is comprised of 23 herbal ingredients including
cascara sagrada, buckthorn bark, ginger root, cayenne pepper, psyllium
husk, fennel seed, and rhubarb root all highly effective for expelling
parasites and their eggs.
These herbs also have analgesic properties that can help relieve the
inflammation, constipation, nausea, abdominal cramping, bloating,
flatulence, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach ache that often accompany an
infestation.
Removing impurities also goes a long way toward helping your body
absorb nutrients, enhancing energy levels, and increasing regularity...all
necessary aspects of getting back on track after a parasitic infestation.
After cleansing your colon, it's important to restore certain bacteria to
prevent unhealthy bacteria from inhabiting the area. Probiotics are the good
bacteria your system needs in order to restore its healthy flora.
It's recommended you begin a cleanse with considerably less than the
suggested dosage if you're elderly. For example, one half to one tablet the
first day, increasing daily until you regularly produce one to three bowel
movements per day.


Page 23
The key to managing parasitic infestation is prevention; the sooner you
make dietary changes that will help
to keep you cleansed and clear of
waste, the less opportunity there
will be for parasites to settle into
the impacted waste within your
colon.
Fiber helps keep your bowels
regulated by increasing your transit
time, which in turn keeps your colon clear of the waste build-up associated
Increase your fiber intake by eating more fiber-rich foods, and make up for
low-fiber days with a high-quality fiber supplement. A dietary supplement
containing psyllium is one of several excellent ways to increase fiber, and it
tends to produce less gas than some high-fiber foods.
Learn about both traditional and more exotic foods that are filled with non-
soluble and soluble fiber, as well as how to incorporate them into your diet.
Print out our fiber chart so you'll know exactly how many grams of fiber per
serving that various foods have to offer.
Although in some countries people reportedly consume over seventy grams
of fiber each day, the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for fiber in the
United States is twenty-five to thirty grams. An increase in fiber creates
softer, bulkier stool, which moves more easily through your digestive
system, flushing out parasites, mucus, and toxins on a daily basis.
The result is a cleaned and toned colon, which makes for a less hospitable
place for parasites to move in, and take over. Increased fiber intake is also
linked to weight loss and many other health benefits.

Parasites and vitamin deficiency go together like peanut butter and jelly.
Not only can having parasites lead to a deficiency, if you're already vitamin-
deficient, you will be vulnerable to a host of health problems including
Parasites feed off human blood, extracting vital nutrients. And not only do
they burrow in our intestinal walls, some parasites cause diarrhea, making
it difficult for our bodies to absorb nutrients.
It is a well-documented fact that parasites cause specific vitamin
deficiencies. Diphyllobothrium latum for example commonly referred to as
fish or broad tapeworm can deplete your body of half its vitamin B12, an
essential resource for the proper functioning of your central nervous
system, muscle coordination, and memory.
Unfortunately, many of us are already vitamin deficient due to our Standard
American Diet of processed, fake, and junk foods. Add to this the fact that
modern food refining destroys and devitalizes much of the goodness in the
foods we eat, and you've set yourself up for a potentially vicious cycle of
infestation, deficiency, and re-infestation.
At some point in their lives, everyone on the planet will require extra
vitamins and minerals to compensate for deficiencies; if you've got
parasites, the time to incorporate a multi-vitamin into your daily regimen is
now!
Advanced vitamin supplementation is the foundation of good health, and
can work to help prevent parasitic infestations. With a strong multi-vitamin
in your corner, your body will be able to recuperate from a parasitic attack,
and build up its immune system to prevent future infestations.


Page 25
In order to avoid infestation, it is important to understand how parasites
operate, and then take the necessary steps to avoid becoming an unwitting
host to various parasites.

It's a parasite's job to infest, and they have designed a variety of clever
ways to invade their hosts i.e. you. Some air-borne viruses, bacteria, and
fungi can infect human beings if accidentally inhaled.
In North America, Histoplasmosis, Valley fever, and Hanta virus are
examples of parasitic diseases associated with bat dung (used in some
fertilizers), dust, and rodent feces.
Parasitic worms are readily transmitted from pets and other animals such
as beef and swine tapeworms. Cat litter boxes may pose a threat of
toxoplasmosis; the Toxoplasma gondii parasite is found in cat feces. Dogs
carry Echinococcus, an intestinal tapeworm the eggs of which spread over
a dog's fur via its anus. Unhealthy human contact with infected dogs, such
as kissing, transports the eggs into the human intestine from where they
can make their way to a host's brain and liver.
Bloodsucking insects can transmit parasites through bites as they endeavor
to feed on human blood. Insect-borne pathogens are not normally a danger
to their natural hosts a rodent for example but can become extremely
harmful in unnatural hosts such as human beings.
Protozoa such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia are transmitted through
drinking water that has been contaminated with fecal material from infected
persons. They can be found in both running streams and the tap water in
many large North American cities served by surface water treatment plants.
Schistosomes such as the deadly Trematoda fluke, however, can only be
transmitted through skin contact with contaminated water.


Page 26
One of the most common ways of contracting a parasitic infection is
through food intake. Unless properly washed, vegetables grown on farms
fertilized with infected human waste can transmit the eggs of various
parasites. When swallowed with contaminated food, parasites can be
infective. This can easily occur in household settings, or in restaurants
where health inspections at even the most expensive world-class
restaurants reveal that employees harbor fecal matter under their nails.
Some parasites the roundworm nematode, for example spend their
immature egg stage in warm, moist soil, just waiting for a new host to
invade. Walking bare-footed or sitting on fecally-contaminated soil can be
an invitation to the eggs of hookworms or strongyloides, who penetrate the
exposed skin and migrate through the human body to the intestinal tract.

1. Expect to become infected by parasites.
2. Regular colon cleansings are a must since most water sources are
located near human habitation, and are therefore likely infested with
parasites.
3. Supplement your diet with fiber to improve transit times, and keep
your colon cleansed of parasitic activity.
4. Supplement your diet with a high-grade multi-vitamin to ensure
adequate vitamin, mineral, and nutrient intake, and to combat the
resulting deficiency from parasitic infestation.
5. If you are prone to infestations, avoid known sources such as contact
with rodent feces, cat litter boxes, and inappropriate contact with
dogs.
6. Use caution when drinking and/or swimming in unfamiliar water
sources.
7. Wear protective clothing when exposed to bloodsucking insects.
8. Wash all fruits and vegetables in clean water before eating to prevent
roundworm and whipworm infection. Add a few ounces of over-the-
counter hydrogen peroxide and/or mild soap to increase the parasite-
killing activity of water.


Page 27
9. Wear shoes or slippers to prevent hookworm infection.
10. Do not use water from septic tanks or other potentially contaminated
sources for watering vegetables.
11. Contain all waste matter in an outdoor toilet or latrine rather than
going as nature intended outdoors.

Children are particularly susceptible to parasites, and often harbor the
largest number of worms. Teach them proper hygiene, such as hand
washing (including using a nail brush) after going to the toilet, playing
outside, or before preparing or eating food.

Most people imagine that their colon is tough; after all, think about what it
deals with every day! But over time, as it ages, the colon has a harder time
doing its job, and the entire digestive process can be thrown off by any
number of little things.
A colon cleanse allows your colon the chance to rebuild itself, and
return to proper functioning.
Many people are unaware of the fact that the colon was never designed to
have food in it all the time. Think about it. All animals in the wild go through
periods when they eat, and times when they dont. These fasting periods
allow their guts a break from having to deal with food, and the colon needs
this break.
A well-designed colon cleanse can mimic a fast without you ever having to
stop eating! In addition, a colon cleanse helps to rejuvenate the entire
digestive system. The end result is that your body works better and you feel
great.

Puristat's MILD, MODERATE and ADVANCED Colon Cleanse plans are
made up of three components - Cleanse, Restore and Advanced
Supplementation. The combination of herbal ingredients in Cleanse works
to stimulate increased muscle activity in the colon. The increased muscle
activity will not only help break up and remove impacted waste, it will also
help tone your colon.
Using products with just the right combination of herbs is the secret to a
successful colon cleanse program. For centuries, people around the globe
have used a variety of herbal ingredients to assist their bodies in
eliminating toxins, mucous, and parasites from the colon. Puristat's Colon
Cleanse is comprised of twenty-three cleansing and detoxification herbs, all
working together to gently expel waste, parasites, and toxins.
The second component to Puristats Colon
Cleanse is Restore. It is comprised of
additional cleansing herbs, plus good
bacteria, also known as lactobacillus
acidophilus. It is vital to restore the good
bacteria whenever you cleanse your
system. The proper balance of acidophilus
helps keep your immune system strong,
reduces yeast overgrowth, and increases
regularity.
The third component, Advanced
Supplementation is a digestive support
regimen that contains digestive enzymes,
probiotics, l-glutamine (for intestinal
healing), vitamin D3 (for fostering nutrient
absorption) and an advanced supply of the
daily nutrients required for digestive and
overall wellness. No colon cleanse

program is complete without a digestive support supplement.
Do you need a colon cleanse? The short answer is that everyone needs a
colon cleanse at least once, if not several times a year. The longer you go
without fasting or a colon cleanse, the worse your colon will become.

Can a simple colon cleanse improve this many conditions? Yes! Your colon
is the center of your health, so everything you eat comes in through your
mouth and has to pass through the colon. If your digestive process is not
working well, it has an impact on the entire body.
If you want to discover your specific needs, turn to the Colon Health
Assessment Test. It takes about two minutes to complete and will supply
you with article recommendations - plus which colon cleanse program is
right for you, all based upon your input.

We offer multiple colon cleanse programs based upon your needs. The
shortest plan, the 7-day colon cleanse kit is stronger than most 30-day
programs. In other words, you get more with our 7-day colon cleanse-
detoxification kit than you get with most competitors products in thirty days.
While Puristats program is powerful, this does not mean that it is
uncomfortable. The Puristat Colon Cleanse has been specially formulated
to not cause cramping or quick trips to the bathroom. It simply means larger
more productive bowel movements more often.
Is it difficult? This is the most common question we get asked. The answer
is no. Most people go through the colon cleanse without any problems,
continuing along with their normal lives throughout the process. The only
difference is that they feel great.

But is doesnt stop there...other Colon Cleanse benefits include:
Weight Loss: Can you lose weight on a colon cleanse? Yes. Many people do lose weight
during their colon cleanse. By following the plan, many people naturally lose shed weight.
Constipation: A great benefit of a colon cleanse is that it often marks the end of constipation.
In addition to the discomfort people experience, having infrequent bowel movements is tied
to a number of diseases including colon cancer, hemorrhoids, and diverticulitis. A colon
cleanse can rejuvenate your bowels and increase the number of healthy bowel movements.
Parasites: Having parasites is much more common than many people realize. The herbs in
our colon cleanse are designed to kill and remove parasites from the digestive tract.
Fatigue: One of the most common complaints heard in doctors offices is how tired people
are. If you have been feeling fatigued lately, then a colon cleanse is the perfect way to restore
the vital energy you are lacking.
Gas and Bloating: You never really notice how much gas and bloating you have until you
dont have it anymore. A colon cleanse rebalances gut bacteria, and improves digestion. This
powerful combination reduces gas and bloating.
Acne: While doctors will tell people that acne has nothing to do with the food you eat or how
healthy your colon is, we know differently. Acne tends to clear after a colon cleanse.

A liver cleanse helps ensure your liver functions in tip-top condition. A
liver cleanse helps cleanse and detoxify your liver and it is one of the most
powerful procedures you can do to enhance your body's performance. It
can significantly improve digestion, enzyme levels, a fatty liver, cirrhosis
and energy, which is the basis of your health.
A sluggish liver can lead to serious fatigue, weight gain, water retention,
and a host of other health woes. A liver cleansing can help with regularity,
bloating and flatulence, diet, and save you thousands of dollars and months
of pain by facilitating the avoidance of needless surgery for gallstones.
Forget about
gallstones and
surgery! "Cleaning the
liver bile ducts is the
most powerful
procedure that you
can do to improve
your body's health,"
says Dr. Hulda Clark,
author of The Cure of
All Diseases.
Liver cleansing diets
and liver support
supplements can help
you avoid possible
subsequent
complications from liver diseases, and the development of other afflictions
related to an unhealthy liver.


Page 33
Before you consider maximizing your liver function, be sure to cleanse your
colon first. Why? A major function of the liver is to clean your blood, and the
best way to make it as easy as possible for the liver to do this is to cleanse
the colon first, so the blood that comes to your liver is as toxin-free as
possible.
If your colon is obstructed with years of accumulated debris, the massive
amounts of toxins to be eliminated from a liver cleansing cannot easily be
evacuated from your body if your colon is blocked. Therefore, it is
imperative to cleanse the colon before beginning your liver cleanse.

The liver is a complex, unique organ serving many functions crucial to
sustaining life. From circulation to digestion, it is constantly processing
blood for use by the rest of the body.
Weighing three to four pounds, the liver is the largest internal organ in the
human body. It is glossy in appearance, and dark red in color from the rich
supply of blood flowing through it. Sometimes called The Great Chemical
Factory, your liver neutralizes harmful toxins and wastes, stores glycogen
(a blood-sugar regulator), amino acids, protein, and fat.
In today's world, our liver all of our organs, in fact are at great risk of
contamination from environmental toxins and over-processed foods infused
with many unnatural chemicals. If your liver is not functioning well, a
hazardous buildup of toxins may occur.


Page 34
The liver performs many important functions to keep us healthy. It removes
harmful material from the blood; it makes enzymes and bile that help digest
food; and it converts food into substances needed for life and growth.
From its sheltered position in the abdominal cavity, the liver filters blood
and performs many functions vital to health. Our bodies depend on the liver
to regulate, synthesize, store, and secrete important proteins and nutrients.
The liver is the most resilient body organ. It is capable of regenerating
itself, and is able to recreate lost tissue in order to help maintain its
essential functions, even in the face of moderate damage.
When part of the liver is removed, a healthy organ may grow back to its
original size. But its capacity to repair itself can be exceeded by repeated
or extensive damage.
Keeping your liver as healthy and cleansed as possible with a liver cleanse
supplement or liver cleanse diet, offers many health advantages.
Top Liver Functions - Over 500 Including:
1. Filtering blood
2. Purifying and clearing waste products, toxins, and drugs
3. Regulating and secreting substances important in maintaining your body's
functions and health
4. Storing important nutrients (such as glycogen glucose), vitamins, and minerals
5. Metabolizing fats, proteins, and carbohydrates
6. Creating bile

In our industrialized developed world, we are immersed in a sea of toxic
chemicals. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that half-a-
million chemicals are in use today, and over five thousand new chemicals
are introduced yearly. Some researchers believe up to twenty-five percent
of these may be carcinogenic. This is why it is crucial to employ a liver
cleanse supplement and/or diet to cleanse your liver of the toxic waste of
twenty-first century living.
Dr. Hulda Clark, PhD, ND, in her
groundbreaking bestseller, The Cure of All
Diseases, dramatically describes the
gallstones and cholesterol that can choke
the liver biliary tubing in many people,
including our children.
"Imagine the situation if your garden hose
had marbles in it. Much less water would
flow, which in turn would decrease the
ability of the hose to squirt out the marbles.
With gallstones, much less cholesterol
leaves the body, and cholesterol levels
may rise."


Page 36
"Gallstones, being porous, can pick up all the bacteria, cysts, viruses, and
parasites that are passing through the liver. In this way, nests of infection
are formed, forever supplying the body with fresh bacteria. No stomach
infection such as ulcers or intestinal bloating can be cured permanently
without removing these gallstones from the liver."
If your liver becomes overworked, it can become congested. Toxic
compounds and impurities may get trapped in deposits of hardened bile.
Pollutants may not be flushed out of the body, and can back up in your
blood stream.
A sluggish liver can lead to serious fatigue, weight gain, water retention,
and a host of other health woes. Detoxification that targets the liver can
Testimonials from those happy with their liver cleansing results include:
Eliminated Gallstones the Size of Grapes
A patient described the unhappy situation of having his liver full of gallstones, a digestive system
working inefficiently, and kidneys that were full of toxins and stones. All of this was affecting his
adrenal glands, resulting in low blood pressure, hypoglycemia, and fatigue. After liver cleansing
and avoiding too much fatty food early in the day, he was able to work again without feeling
exhausted.
Shed Sixty-one Pounds
After suffering from intermittent stomach problemsbloating, painful cramps, food intolerance,
constipation, fluid retention, etc., a liver cleanser elatedly reported she had shed 61 pounds, lost
an incredible amount of fluid, and gained significant energy.
Young Girl's Energy Restored
A thrilled mother shared that her daughter's health, after a liver cleanse, had dramatically
improved; her stomach pains were gone, her energy levels were soaring, and her waist
measurement had decreased by five inches as a result of losing over fourteen pounds without
dieting or exercising: "I was amazed and relieved to see my fifteen-year-old daughter's health
improve in such a short time."

help remove these unwanted poisons and enable it to function properly. A
healthy liver will increase your energy, improve metabolism, and help you
burn excess fat.

If possible, do not take any pharmaceuticals during your liver flush. If you
are under a physician's care, consult with him or her prior to your cleanse,
and follow your doctor's instructions concerning your medications.
Remember, when you are detoxifying your liver, you will not receive full
benefit from any medication because they may be flushed out with the
cleanse, reducing their effectiveness.

After you have completed a liver cleanse, it is important to cleanse the
colon again. Some of the toxins and waste products removed, including
drug residues from pharmaceutical products you have taken over the
years, will move through the colon. If it is not re-cleansed, the colon can
reabsorb these compounds, and re-toxify your blood and body. The
When you should NOT liver cleanse:
If constipated - consider doing a colon cleanse first
When ill
During pregnancy or lactation
Keep away from young children
If you have a medical concern, consult with your healthcare professional.

Remember those days when you could eat anything and it didn't matter?
You could stuff anything closely resembling food in your face and never
think about it again. For most of us, who are middle-aged, or for women
fast approaching menopause, those days are gone forever.
Today, this kind of eating is likely to send a friendly "reminder" wafting into
the air a few hours later. Occasional bloating, flatulence, gassiness, and
indigestion can be uncomfortable - both for you and for others in the room
- and if it is happening a lot, it may just be a sign from your body that
something needs to change.
As we age, our bodies become less efficient at digestion, and this poor
digestion leads to an increase in bloating, gassiness and flatulence. For
example, the slowdown of the gastrointestinal tract's processes as a
woman ages can sometimes result in menopausal indigestion.

There are many other reasons for becoming gassy and bloated such as
eating foods that cause gassiness and bloating, not properly combining
foods, or gulping air while you're eating, but the vast majority of gas is
produced by bacteria in your gut.
The whole story of what's going on is a combination of loss of digestive
powers, the bacteria in your gut, and the types of foods you decide to put
into your mouth. While it might feel that these changes have occurred
quickly, in most people they have happened slowly over time as their body
changes and ages.


Page 40
Most people have heard of lactose intolerance, but what is it, exactly?
Lactose is the sugar found in milk. People with lactose intolerance don't
have the ability to digest the sugar in milk.
All babies have the enzyme necessary to digest milk sugar (lactase).
Humans can digest lactose when they're young, but many lose this ability
as they age. This makes sense: all mammals drink milk from their mother,
but then stop as they grow older. Humans are the only ones who try to
break this rule.
As an adult, if you don't have the lactase enzyme and you drink milk or eat
milk products, then the sugar from the milk passes through the stomach
and small intestine undigested. While you wouldn't normally think
undigested sugar is a big deal, it is.
According to research, the number of people who have lactose intolerance
varies by ethnicity. In general, about half the population of the United
States are considered lactose intolerant. Lactose intolerance is highest
among Asians (almost 100%) and Blacks (around 80%); at the other end of
the spectrum are Scandinavians; as little as 2% are lactose intolerant.

Undigested sugars are a boon for the bacteria that live in your gut.
Your gut is full of bacteria. The number of bacteria in your gut outnumbers
the number of cells in your entire body. There are literally billions of both
good and bad bacteria in your gut. In a healthy person, the good and the
bad bacteria achieve a balance where there are not too many of the good
guys or the bad guys.


Page 41
For the peri-menopausal and menopausal woman, good bacteria are
essential to feeling well. They metabolize and recycle hormones such as
estrogen, phytoestrogens, and thyroid. This process fosters hormonal
balance, and helps to minimize menopausal symptoms.
When undigested lactose sugar comes down the intestines, bacteria
gobble up the sugars. To the bacteria, it is time to party. When food
sources (mostly sugars) are plentiful for bacteria, they do what bacteria do
best: grow and multiply. When bacteria start multiplying rapidly, they
produce gas. Undigested lactose sugar equals gas production and more
bloating.
Bacteria can also produce toxins as they grow and multiply, which can be
harmful to the lining of the gut. This can cause diarrhea.
By now you have probably realized that not just lactose, but other sugars
can cause the same problem. Any sugar that you don't digest will become
a meal for the bacteria in your gut, and any meal for bacteria means an
increase in gas production and toxins.
The smell is another story. Not all bacteria that create gas produce a smelly
gas. The main villains - as far as smell goes are the bacteria that produce
gases containing sulfur and methane. There is some evidence that it's the
harmful bacteria that produce odd smells, but this is not entirely
understood.
Don't get the wrong idea about the bacteria in your gut. They're vital to your
health and perform many functions such as breaking down complex
carbohydrates (fibers), and providing us with vitamins and other nutrients.
It's just bad when you start over-feeding the bacteria with sugars and they
produce excess gas.

There is a relationship between digestive ability and the bacteria in your
gut. When we were younger, our digestive powers were at their height, but
they decline as we age. With many more of the sugars that in our youth


Page 42
would normally be digested and absorbed now passing through the gut
undigested, gas-producing bacteria have lots to feed on.
Poor digestion, along with food and drug choices, can change where the
bacteria in the gut are located. Once again, this doesn't sound like a big
deal, but where bacteria are located in your gut can have long-lasting
effects on your health and the amount of "room-clearing" gas that exits
from your body.
Medical books would have you believe that the majority of bacteria in your
gut are found in your colon. In healthy people, this is true. If you don't
remember your high school anatomy lessons, the colon makes up the last
four to six feet or so of your intestines. In between the colon and the
stomach are around 24 feet of small intestine. The small intestines are not
supposed to have many bacteria in them, but in modern people, they do.
There is a medically recognized syndrome called small bowel bacterial
overgrowth syndrome, where the small intestines become overgrown with
large amounts of bacteria. This syndrome is much more common than
many doctors realize. Bacteria are not dumb - they are going to go and
grow where the food is. If there are large amounts of sugars to be found
high in the digestive tract, that is where the bacteria are going to go.
Stress, a carbohydrate-rich (sugar) diet, and poor digestion in addition to
the use of antibiotics that can kill off many of the good bacteria can all
contribute to bacteria relocating to the small intestine.
Most of the absorption of nutrients and vitamins occurs high in the gut.
Having bacteria high in the guts means that bacteria are now in competition
for our nutrients. If bacteria are creating toxins and irritating the gut lining,
then there is the potential for malabsorption syndromes such as irritable
bowel syndrome (IBS).


Page 43
Yes, there are foods that tend to create bloating and flatulence; some of
these are famous for doing so such as beans, cabbage, and others. These
foods typically contain a difficult to digest fiber that is perfect food for
bacteria. Other foods that create bloating and flatulence are those that
contain a large amount of sugar.

You can try to avoid the foods that cause gas, but these foods are some of
the best foods you can put in your body. Broccoli alone is the subject of
over two hundred studies, and is prized for its ability to prevent a wide
number of cancers, to act as an antioxidant, and numerous other health
benefits. Likewise, cabbage, onions, and oatmeal are full of great nutrients
that your body needs.
The best way to avoid bloating and flatulence is to take an integrated
approach.

Traditional Gas-producing Foods
Vegetables: peas, cabbage, onions, broccoli, radishes,

First, realize that digestion begins in the mouth. There are digestive
enzymes that are released in your mouth as you chew. One of the easiest
tricks to chewing your food well is to take your fork and put food in your
mouth - then set the fork down on the table until you are done chewing.
Most people are picking up their next bite as they are chewing; this creates
urgency where you are trying to get the food out of your mouth because the
next bite is waiting on the fork. Stop, put your fork down, finish the bite in
your mouth, and pick up the fork again.

If you haven't heard the news about how bad soda is yet, then let us tell
you: stop drinking soda. According to a recent National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey, soda is the major source of calories in the United
States. Soda creates many problems for people who want to be healthy
and overwhelms even the best digestive capacities. Drinking soda feeds
gas-producing bacteria. Other simple sugars should be eaten in
moderation, or if you are really brave, not at all.

Embarrassing Marriage Moments!
"Lately, I have had embarrassing moments with gas and bloating. I feel a lot better now thanks to
Puristat, and I have more energy. Intimacy has also improved in my marriage because I am less
embarrassed about passing gas during lovemaking." ~ Angela in California
"Gas...I Could Not Control It!"
"The biggest side issue for me was always gas, I could not control it and it was often very
embarrassing and uncomfortable. Since trying Puristat I have felt much better and the discomfort
has gone away completely. Thanks Puristat!" ~ Linda in MA

You should periodically undergo a colon cleanse. A one- or three- week
program helps to rebalance the good and bad bacteria in your body, and
also helps to push the bacteria back into the colon where it belongs. A
simple colon cleanse can do wonders for reducing bloating and flatulence;
returning the colon to a healthier state means that it no longer takes days
for food to pass through the colon. A shorter transit time means that there
is less time for bacteria to produce gas.

Next, you should give your gut a hand and take a digestive enzyme
supplement. Taken with to meals, digestive enzymes will help support your
digestive system and relieve bloating, flatulence and discomfort. The
enzymes will break down the sugars that you're eating, leaving little left
over for the bacteria.

Lastly, you should give your gut and entire body a hand by taking a daily
digestive wellness supplement. There is no other single thing you can do to
improve your digestive and overall health than support your digestive
system on a daily basis. Vitamin dosages are critical in today's world since
it's literally impossible to get the daily nutrients we need from the over
processed food we eat every day. Many people find supplementing their
diets with a strong digestive support vitamin provides them with the extra
energy and mental clarity they need to achieve personal and professional
goals. Since struggling with your health on a daily basis drains your energy,

It's no fun being the negative center of attention, especially when it's
people's noses that point you out. The great news about gassiness,
bloating, and flatulence is that it's easy to make it go away. It takes a little
effort on your part, but most people who implement a healthy digestive
program are amazed at how good they feel, and are delighted by the loss
of bloating and flatulence.
