Herbal cleansing is a great way to improve digestive health as well as energy and mood. However, because of your exisiting health issues, we recommend consulting your physician before beginning any cleansing program. As a general guideline, ReNew Life recommends the following 3-step Program for Internal Cleansing:

• Begin with a General Total-body Cleanse, which we recommend 2 to 4 times each year. (Note: Because of your IBS-D symptoms, you may benefit from a cleanse with added fiber such as Organic Total Body Cleanse.)
• Following the General Total-body Cleanse, advance to an Enhanced Cleansing and Detox formula as need for specific concerns, such as liver/kidney health. (See individual product directions for length of use.)
• Complete the 3-step program with a Microbial Cleanse to address parasites, yeast, or both, depending upon your individual needs. (See individual product directions for length of use.)

Once you complete the 3-step program, you may then wish to use one of our Situational Cleansing and Detox formulas to address additional concerns such as smoking or weight loss.

When deciding how long to break in between cleanses, it is always important to read the individual product directions. While several of our cleanses may be taken for up to three months at a time, a deeper cleanse such as CleanseSMART is best used only quarterly or twice yearly because of the stronger bowel-stimulating herbs in the formula. Essentially, it is not beneficial for your body to be cleansing month after month, so it is best to take a break in between–at least 15 to 30 days. Good luck and happy cleansing!
