Book Reviews of Detox Box

Book Review: Committment and Fortitude Required
Summary: 4 Stars

I've been doing research on cleansing and detox programs for a few years now. My husband and I were going to try The Master Cleanse and I even purchased the materials, but never did it. Then, a friend recently did a detox and I also read where Meredith Vieira (co-anchor on NBC's Today show) was doing one... AND then just last week I got laid off from my job (totally unexpected). The stars were aligned and I decided it was the best time to start a detox... so I decided on The Detox Box. I selected it since I had heard (and read) a number of good things about it (it was the one that my friend was doing). My husband was traveling during week #1 of the detox, which was very helpful (he's a processed food lover and having him around would have made that first week very hard). So far, I've made it through the first week (not without a few pitfalls - I needed to do the yoga consistently and move around more but will do that in week #2... we were also invited to our friends' resort vacation home toward the end of week #1, and it's been tricky to follow the meal plan, when everyone around you is encouraging you to drink wine and eat non-listed foods with them!). Still, I feel very calm, not a bit anxious (job? schmob!); my circulation is outstanding (my hands and fingertips are actually WARM again), my skin is positively RADIANT and I don't miss the caffeine (I was drinking alot of it and went cold-turkey, though TDB recommends a "before" phase where you gradually wean yourself down. So far, I haven't had any major headaches). I plan to continue the program for another week (or two) since I'm in a groove now (despite the pitfalls) and know I can refine my commitment for the remaining weeks. While I agree with some of the other reviewers that the ingredients can be expensive, I also agree it's a small price to pay to significantly improve your health - both body AND mind. I'm sure I would pay significantly more if I visited a spa or consulted with a naturopath. You can easily do this program on your own. Even though the individual flashcards seem like an awkward way to present the material (why not put it in a bound book that can be indexed and then referenced?) I still HIGHLY recommend this program.

Summary of Detox Box

Created by holistic physician Mark Hyman, M.D., The Detox Box gives you everything you need to complete a safe, effective, and medically informed detoxification program at home. Designed for total cleansing to remove toxins and allergens, boost immunity, and restore energy levels, the program can be done in 7, 14, or 21 days. The Detox Box includes: 64-page study guide with record-keeping section to track your progress 2 CDs-one featuring a detailed presentation on the scientific reasons we need to detoxify, the other leads you through three twenty-minute yoga sequences specifically designed to support you as you detoxify 70 flash cards laying out every step of the program-diet and supplements, contemplative activities and yoga practices, preparation checklists, daily schedules, shopping lists, and more Two questionnaires to help you assess your levels of exposure Produced by Susan Piver and Padma Media. Does Your Body's Detox System Need a Jump Start? The Detox Box contains questionnaires to help you determine if you should undertake the program, and, if so, how often. Try this short self-evaluation: 1. Are you strongly bothered by gasoline fumes or common household cleaners? 2. Do you have a negative reaction when you eat foods containing preservatives or MSG? 3. Do you feel "wired up" when you drink even small amounts of coffee or black tea? 4. Are you exposed to synthetic carpeting? 5. Do you take antacids? 6. Does your family have a history of cancer? 7. Have you experienced food allergies? 8. Do you regularly consume alcohol or tobacco? 9. Are you exposed daily to cell phones, computers, or microwaves? 10. Does pollen, grass, or ragweed bother you? If you answer "yes" to five or more of these questions, you would likely benefit from a complete detoxification program.
