If you checked:

Less than 10: Although your lifestyle is pretty healthy, the five-week detox program will do you good and keep you healthy.

Between 11-20: You are exposed to toxic chemicals at an average level. The detox program can easily reduce your total toxic load.

More than 21: You are consistently exposed to toxic chemicals in your food and environment. You will need to take time to detox slowly, but following the detox program is necessary.


Physical Sensitivities Questionnaire

With all that exposure to chemicals, toxins, and a stress- filled life, you may have developed a few sensitivities to certain smells, tastes, and body products. This next set of questions are designed to get you thinking about how you react to many of the products you encounter. Check all that apply


Do you have a negative reaction to any of the following:

Chemicals, car fumes, odors, perfumes, or fragrances

Caffeine, alcohol, or medications

Monosodium glutamate (MSG)

Foods containing sulfites, such as wine and dried fruit, or salad bar food

Diet sodas containing artificial sweeteners


Do you suffer from any of these symptoms:

Fibromayalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, cancer, or an autoimmune disease

Acne, eczema, hives, or general itching

Fatigue, lethargy, joint pains, muscle aches, or weakness

Mood swings, anxiety, depression, poor concentration, a "spacey" feeling, or restlessness

Headaches, sinus infections, or allergies

Nausea, bad breath, foul-smelling stools, a bloated feeling, or intolerance to fatty or starchy foods

Most importantly: Do you keep getting sick?


If you checked three or more of these questions, the 5-week Body Rejuvenation Cleanse program is very important for you because you may be displaying signs of toxicity. You will need to cleanse your filtering organs and decrease your exposure to chemicals and toxins.
