The Importance of Detox after Chemo

By Jillies, April 29, 2010 6:41 am

I have recently been corresponding with Dr. Michael Madden, a DC who now practices functional medicine. Dr. Madden and other natural medicine practitioners talk about the importance of completing a good detox program after undergoing chemotherapy.

Although I didn’t have chemo myself, I made the decision to do a detox to help excrete the radiation from my body after radiation therapy. I did a lot of research about the various detox programs on the market today and ultimately decided to complete a 21 day program offered by Biotics Research. They also offer a 10 day version.

Many people think a detox consists of abstaining from food and drinking colonics to cleanse the system. This is not true. The detox I completed included a diet rich in fruit, vegetables, lean protein and good fat. In addition to following a rigid diet, I took a variety of supplements and a combination whey protein and nutriclear shake. The program was a bit difficult to follow in the beginning. I actually started it once and then stopped, only to start it again and ultimately complete it. After finishing the detox program, I felt energized, my skin had never been clearer, I lost weight, and I had the piece of mind that I did something to help myself recover from the effects of radiation therapy.
