Cleansing - is there a correct order?
Did you know that, Yes, there is a traditional and energetically sound order to cleansing the body that aligns beautifully with both herbal wisdom and modern naturopathic principles. The goal is always to support elimination pathways in the right order, so the body is not overwhelmed and healing can unfold with grace.
Ideal Order of Cleansing:
Colon Cleanse (Clearing the Main Exit)
Think of this as clearing the drain before turning on the taps. If the colon is sluggish or impacted, toxins released by other cleanses will reabsorb into the bloodstream.
Herbs: Aloe vera, Cascara sagrada, Psyllium husk, Slippery elm, Triphala, Marshmallow root
Parasite Cleanse (Evicting the Unwanted Guests)
Once elimination is flowing, you can begin to dislodge parasites which often live in a toxic gut environment.
Herbs: Black walnut, Wormwood, Clove, Garlic, Pau d’Arco, Neem, Quassia, Thyme
Liver & Gallbladder Support (Opening the Filters)
Before heavy metal detox, the liver must be functioning well to process released toxins.
Herbs: Milk thistle, Dandelion root, Burdock, Artichoke leaf, Schisandra, Yellow dock, Turmeric
Heavy Metal Detox (Removing the Deep-Rooted Burdens)
Only once pathways are open and the liver is supported should you introduce heavy metal chelation.
Herbs & Natural Binders: Cilantro, Chlorella, Zeolite, Spirulina, Wild blueberries, Shilajit
