The characteristics of constipation include: hard formed stools, bowel movements fewer than two times a week, prolonged straining, difficulty getting fecal matter out when having a bowel movement, feeling of rectal fullness, and feeling that there is pressure in the rectum.

Yes! The Center for Disease Control (CDC) released findings in October showing an estimated 60 million people in the United States alone have parasitic infestations. Intestinal parasites according to the CDC outrank cancer as the #1 killer worldwide. You ask, “how can this be?!”
The answer is our diet which is high in processed foods, and additives cause part of the problem. The other part is that our intestines which make a wonderful home for parasites, generally are not cleansed as well, nor as often as they should be.
The build up of toxins from the environment, food, water, and hereditary issues makes for a prime breeding ground for parasites. The best way to prevent parasites is through routine colon cleanses using Puristat. If you have not cleansed before, that is alright, we can help you eliminate toxins and parasites, and help improve your health starting today!

Dutch researchers have found that vitamin B supplements can be beneficial in increasing vitamin B6, B12 and folate levels in celiac disease patients and in reducing their homocysteine levels. High homocysteine levels, an amino acid in the blood, can be associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease.
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic intestinal disorder caused by a hypersensitivity to gluten proteins found in wheat, rye, barley, and possibly oat products. Normally, ingesting these proteins does not cause an immune reaction. But in patients with CD, the immune system is abnormally activated by gluten, triggering an inflammation response in the small intestine. Over time, this autoimmune response results in the partial or complete flattening of the villi-the tiny hair-like projections lining the small intestine that absorb nutrients from foods. Without healthy villi, people become malnourished, no matter how much food they eat. According to the Dutch study findings vitamin B supplements also seem to have a protective role against atrophy of the intestinal villi.

Talk to any number of healthcare people and they will tell you to eat better. Changing your diet will certainly improve your health, but it is also important that you digest your food efficiently. Digestive Enzymes are what help your body break down food and extract the nutrients necessary for a healthy life. Your body produces less of these enzymes as you get older, and it becomes more difficult for you to digest properly. A digestive enzyme program from Puristat will address the problem, and prevent bloating or heartburn. You may also want to consider a colon/liver cleanse program along with your diet change.

Detoxification diets help the body to eliminate toxins in many ways. First, natural vegetarian diets include the fiber needed for stimulating good bowel eliminate. They also contain the proper amounts of vitamins that feed and nourish the bowels and the liver, as well as other eliminative organs. They also include a valuable source of enzymes since most vegetarian diets are eaten raw. The elimination of meat from the diet for a short period enhances detoxification because meat is so difficult to digest and requires many enzymes for its digestion. Therefore, vegetarian diets are cleansing diets and aid the body in elimination of toxins.
Detox diets will generally eliminate trigger foods, which may cause many problems with digestion and elimination. Foods like wheat (glutens) and dairy (milk, cheese) are often the cause of allergies. Sugar is eliminated because of its “empty calories” and tendency to produce hypoglycemia. Meats are eliminated because they may contain hormones, antibiotics and are difficult to digest. Caffeine is wise to avoid, since it has many ill effects on the body’s digestion. Refined, processed and junk foods are also out for any detox program to work.
