I want to talk about some of the supplements my husband and I took while on our juice fast. I have been using Sunrider products my entire life. My mom has always given them to us, and I thank her for instilling good habits in me. For more information and links to each product I use, visit my Gear page. I wholeheartedly believe in the philosophy of cleansing and regeneration (Yin & Yang).

The Sunrider Philosophy of Regeneration: (taken from Sunrider corporate website)

1. We believe that the body has the innate ability to create balance and order when properly nourished. The body has different nutritional needs for each system. The ancient Chinese believed that states of disease and hunger were manifestations of the same thing: a lack of nutrition. The body yields to disease, weight gain, or low energy when it does not receive the proper nourishment.

2. We believe that this nourishment must come from whole foods. The body is designed to obtain its nourishment from whole foods like vegetables, fruits and grains. Only whole foods have the synergy necessary for this task—they have the proper cellular structure which allows the body to assimilate these foods to nourish, balance, and cleanse the body. Sunrider Herb Food Concentrates made with food grade herbs are simply the best source of food nourishment at the cellular level.

3. We believe that each person must be willing to accept responsibility for his or her own health. Achieving well-being consists of a series of very personal decisions. As Dr. Tei-Fu Chen (The founder of Sunrider) says, “Listen to your body, and it will tell you what to do.” Our bodies are the best monitor as to the value of any food. If you need to see a doctor, then go to one. If you need to improve your nutrition, then learn about whole foods and Sunrider Herb Food Concentrates.

During our juice fast, we wanted to make sure we were feeding our bodies everything we could to achieve optimal results. First of all, we knew we would need a fiber source to get whatever was being “cleansed,” out. We took Fibertone three times a day. We also added Spirulina on about day three, and started taking Vitadophilus (acidophilus) for our probiotic. We continued to drink Calli twice a day, and I had Fortune Delight as well. I love Sunrider products and use the Kandesn line of skin care every day. I also use the Fruit and Vegetable rinse to clean all of our produce before juicing. The thing that I love the most about Sunrider is the fact that it is all-natural, with no added chemicals. I know that the products are safe, and I trust the company and their philosophy.
