Detox With Dr. Logan Let me guide you through a 7-day science-based detox program followed by the Clean 14 program.
Why Detox? We ingest over 30-50 tons of food in a lifetime. • The bioaccumulation of toxins from food, water and air, continues to increase and overwhelm the body’s ability to eliminate. • Many vague symptoms develop in patients which may not always reflect the underlying effects from buildup of toxic materials.
Where Do Toxins Come From? • Environmental Toxins • Polluted air from factories • Solvents (paint, cleaning products) • Pesticides, herbicides, insecticides • Heavy metals • Radiation • Water • Auto exhaust
Allergies • Fatigue • PMS • Asthma • Insomnia • Muscle Joint Pain • Skin Disorders • Chemical Sensitivities • Digestion/Elimination Problems • Elevated Cholesterol • Overweight/Underweight • Anger, Depression, Irritability • Blood Sugar and Hormonal Imbalances • Frequent Flus, Colds or Sinus Infections
Why Detox? • Improved Energy • Weight Loss • Mental Clarity • Better Digestion •Healthy Skin
Why Detox? • The number of overweight people in the world now exceeds the number of underweight people. • Diabetes is expected to strike 1 in 3 U.S. kids born in the year 2000. • Diabesity emerging as a worldwide epidemic. • The youth of today are expected to have shorter life span’s than their parents.
Why Detox? • We are leaders in soda consumption with almost 600 cans per man, woman and child per year. • We are the world leaders in calorie consumption with nearly 3700 calories per person per day. • And would you be surprised that we spend the most on health care at $5,000 per person per year.
Why Detox? 5%of the world’s population lives in the United States. 50%of the world’s prescription drugs are consumed in the United States.
Why Detox? • Agribusiness is about quantity, not quality. • Volume of corn production has increased five fold in the last 30 years on the same acre of land. • Antioxidant and mineral levels are 50% lower than 50 years ago.

Roles of the Liver • Filters blood • Stores glucose for energy • Breaks down steroid hormones • Produces/secretes bile • Primary organ of detoxification in the body
Liver Detox Pathways The liver eliminates toxins through a 2-step enzymatic process: Phase I • Cytochrome P450 (a series of enzymes) chemically changes fat-soluble toxins into a more toxic substance called an“intermediary metabolite”. • This “intermediate metabolite”is often more toxic than the original fat-soluble toxin, hence the need for Phase II.
Liver Detox Pathways Phase II • Conjugation (attachment) of specific molecules onto the“intermediary metabolite”make it non-toxic and water-soluble so it can be excreted through the urine or stool.
Detoxification Depletes Nutrients Studies by Dr. John Laseter of AccuChem Laboratories show that when we inhale a particular chemical, 10% could go to bone, 15% could go to the liver, 20% could go to the brain, etc. For the next person the percentages could be totally different. • Individual detoxification capability determines how much of each chemical is eliminated and how much is stored and where. • If we use up too many detox nutrients, without replenishing, we leave ourselves vulnerable to the next environmental chemical that comes along.
