UltraCare for Kids? Estrium? UltraMeal?		Why Should You Consume UltraClear®?   There are three primary reasons why you might consume UltraClear®. The first is that it has been recommended for a metabolic detoxification and/or fasting program by me. The second (and not quite so obvious reason) is for weight loss and/or the diminishment of allergic reaction and food sensitivities. UltraClear® is an excellent, occasional meal substitute. That is, in the place of a regular meal, UltraClear® mixed in water is an excellent source of calories, nutrition and quick stable energy. The third is for the purposes of an Overnight Fasting Protocol. The idea is to literally fast for 12 to 14 hour from 6:00 pm until the next morning. UltraClear® is consumed in the evening to stabilize blood sugar, minimize food cravings and balance bodily energy until bedtime. In all cases, due it's hypoallergenic nature, UltraClear® is often a preferred method of supplementing your diet - particularly for highly reactive or otherwise allergic people.

My Clinical Experience and Track Record with UltraClear

Like many health practitioners, my history and experience with UltraClear is overwhelmingly positive.

I have guided dozens of people through a safe, controlled medical food fast ... using UltraClear.

Due to the predominance of modern environmental toxins, the old-fashioned method of a Water or Juice Fast is often too intense for most people. I have found that using UltraClear to add a small amount of calories coupled with the free-radical neutralizing nutritional compounds makes the Fasting process not only easier, but more profound than any of the 'traditional methods'. It's the 21st Century.... 21st Century fasting tools are needed.

My favorite use for UltraClear is for what I call Overnight Fasting.

Here's how it works (in brief): most people would benefit from not eating within 4 to 5 hours at bedtime. When you go to sleep, your intestines 'go to sleep' as well. If you go to bed with significant amounts of food or beverages in your intestines, there will be prolific fermentation in the gut overnight. Alcohol, aldehydes, metabolic wastes, partially digested food proteins will have a tendency to pass through the lining of the small intestine and thereby "auto-intoxicating" your system. Obviously, such a situation over time is highly detrimental.

Do you eat within 5 hours of bed time?!

As a result, I've recommended Overnight Fasting to literally hundreds of clients through the years. I have recommended that they consider not eating after 6 PM and consuming only water and supplementing as necessary with a small amount of UltraClear. UltraClear helps to stave off hunger cravings, provide a little extra energy and generally make the Overnight Fasting process smoother and easier.

If you have never tried this, it is almost something certainly something you would benefit from. Feel free to check with your regular health practitioner, or me, for more information and the suitability of this dietary protocol for yourself.

On a personal note: I Fast at least twice a year for clarity and health purposes - usually from 10 to 21 days. I typically consume only spring water and the occasional intake of UltraClear. I could not live at the high level of wellness and vitality that do without this Fasting and the assistance UltraClear. I consider it a fundamental to maintaining my health and well being.

The Pros And Cons on UltraClear:

The Pros: UltraClear is hypoallergenic; free from many regular allergens and sensitivity producing ingredients like wheat, gluten, corn, yeast, soy protein, dairy products, or artificial colors, sweeteners, or flavors.

Also, it has a many year, clinically proven, track record of assisting people in the process of metabolic detoxification and fasting. There are several copies, or knockoffs, of this product on the market, but ultimately UltraClear is the most pure and effective.

If you have been recommended to UltraClear by your doctor, then most likely UltraClear will be effective for you and your unique circumstance. It truly works.

 

Who Can Successfully Consume UltraClear?

> Almost everyone can. UltraClear is suitable for virtually all age brackets and health conditions. (For more detailed information, see this).

 

The Cons: There are very few downside risks with UltraClear.

As mentioned above, I have recommended this product literally hundreds of times, and have had not one negative action or reaction as a result of its proper use.

'Proper Use' would include working closely with your prescribing medical doctor if you are taking significant pharmaceutical medications. These may need to monitored, if not adjusted during UltraClear usage.

 

Who Should NOT Consume UltraClear?

1. Women who are pregnant and/or lactating. During these times, triggering any sort of detoxification can be potentially detrimental to your child.

2. Cancer patients or anyone on a calorie restricted diet.

If your health dictates that you have a limited amount of calories per day, UltraClear would not be the ideal source for those nutrients. You can not healthfully survive on UltraClear alone for an extended period of time.

Also, the potential for accelerated detoxification and accompanying down side effects are possible when you are on a calorie restricted diet.

3. Children under four years old. Children under four years old do not typically need to go on a 'detoxification diet', nor do they need the concentrated nutrients found in UltraClear. For children consider using, UltraClear for Kids.

4. Schizophrenics and others with hair trigger mental and emotional states.

5. For more detailed information, see this.

 UltraClear and the concentrated nutrients are too potentially influential in creating chemical and neurochemical changes to be safely utilized by these individuals. Chemical changes from detoxification can accelerate certain neurologically reactions that could potentially increased symptoms in these patients.

Comments from Satisfied UltraClear Users

"UltraClear tastes so good, I like to use it just like I used to use milkshakes. I know I'm not supposed use it like that exactly, but it seems to work for me, so I keep doing it. If it is agreeable to you, and you think OK, please send me another canister of UltraClear."

W. Grady - Lexington, KY

 

"I've been on your UltraClear Plus fast and diet for the full seven days. I can report that I have more energy than I've had in the last seven years. The bloodshot/redness in the whites of my eyes is GONE. And, I am more clearheaded and mentally alert than I can remember, maybe ever.

You knew exactly what you are talking about, didn't you? This really has worked. How do I maintain this awesome feeling going forward?!!"

R. Larabee - Tulsa, OK

 

"You didn't tell me that I would lose weight while doing the Overnight Fasting thing!

While I do feel better, the most amazing thing is I have lost 18 pounds over the last month simply by not eating after 6 PM and taking one or two scoops of UltraClear in water.

This is crazy - I've untried all sorts of Diet Plans over the years - but nothing has ever worked like this!"

L. O'Neil - Annapolis, MD

The Basic Science and Education of Metabolic Detoxification and Medical Food Assisted Fasting:

Liver-based detoxification occurs in two sequential steps - Phase I and Phase II.

Each of these phases involves reactions determined by a number of different detoxifying enzymes. As an essential first step, Phase I reactions generate many reactive intermediate metabolites as well as reactive oxygen species that are potentially damaging.

Phase II reactions convert these reactive intermediate metabolites into water-soluble, non-harmful products that are eliminated from the body.

Taken together, this entire process is termed "biotransformation."

It is essential that Phase I and Phase II activities function in balance with one another to minimize the presence of intermediate metabolites and promote effective detoxification.

 

One of the body's primary self-defense mechanisms is the conversion and neutralization of these internal metabolic wastes and external environmental toxins into soluble and easily excreted by-products.

Many challenges to this system - dysbiosis, repeated exposures to dietary chemical and preservatives, environmental toxins, bacterial-viral-fungal endotoxins, and the body's own metabolic wastes - can increase the detoxification burden.

This overload can lead to greater production of free radicals and damage to many body systems.

Long term exposure to environmental pollutants and continued affronts to the detoxifying systems may lead to oxidative stress, high levels of P-450 activity, and reduced capacity for Phase II conjugation reactions. This can result in accumulation of the toxic compounds, damage to essential fatty acids, impairment of oxidative phosphorylation, and reduced energy production.
