Poliquin® BioSignature Modulation 14-day Gut/Detox Jumpstart Program This program is not a “quick-fix,” but is instead designed to help you jump start a long-term healthy lifestyle. Many people feel significantly improved after just two weeks, but the hope is that you will work with your healthcare practitioner, trainer, or lifestyle educator to understand not only how to feel better in the short-term, but also how to make healthy choices for a lifetime. A healthy detoxification program is designed to provide additional nutritional support to the organ systems most involved in the removal of toxins from the body. The toxins we are exposed to include pesticides, herbicides, pollution, chemicals in our water, prescription drugs, alcohol use, lotions and many, many more. This is in addition to all the toxins already created as a result of our metabolic processes. The goal is not to cause or induce detoxification. We are simply supporting detoxification that is always occurring in the body. Detoxification is a very nutrient dependent process handled primarily by the liver, kidneys and skin. If our nutrient status is suboptimal then our ability to remove harmful toxins will also be suboptimal. The body will instead attempt to hide away or sequester these harmful toxins to reduce the acute damage they can do. These fat soluble toxins will typically be stored in fatty tissues like adipose tissue, the brain, and the membranes of our cells. As a result, we may suffer from chronic toxin exposure which is less likely to manifest as a classically diagnosed "disease," but may instead may present as fatigue, brain fog, gastrointestinal distress, weight gain, headaches, congestion and much more. This is not to be confused with the trendy, fad detoxes in the market. Fasting or “juice” detoxification programs (which are inherently very low in nutrients) can unintentionally upregulate the first phase of liver detoxification while not supporting the crucial processes of Phase II. The result can actually be an increase in symptoms of toxicity rather than an improvement in health. A healthy detoxification program will nutritionally support both phases of liver detoxification by providing complete nutrition with appropriate herbs, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats and protein. For the Jump Start program, one of the key components is the elimination diet. Why an elimination diet and what is it? The goal of an elimination diet is to eliminate gastrointestinal triggers that induce systemic inflammation as well as to reduce the level of exposure to food-based toxins. Many people have negative reactions to specific foods which can have serious health implications, both systemically and directly upon the health of the gastrointestinal gastrointest inal system. Regarding food sensitivities, sensitivities, gut health is the most crucial component since the gut is such a key barrier between the outside world and our internal environment. When this barrier doesn’t function optimally, substances which shouldn’t be allowed into circulation make their way in and can disrupt normal function causing inappropriate immune responses, elevated inflammation and whole host of health problems. Many times, these health problems are subclinical. The symptoms might range from bowel discomfort to brain fog to general fatigue to ongoing aches and pains. While these conditions are not normal, they would also not rise to the level of disease so they can often go unmanaged or ignored altogether as just an acceptable part of “aging.” Supporting optimal gut health can have a profound impact on reducing or eliminating these symptoms of suboptimal function.

In addition to gut barrier function, an excessive amount of toxin exposure can cause the body to store these harmful chemicals which have been shown to have a negative impact on health. With elevated levels of pesticides, herbicides, plastics, pharmaceutical drugs, pollutants and myriad other examples, our internal detoxification systems are on overload. These internal systems, of which the focus is usually put on the liver and kidneys, are already supposed to be managing the normal day to day functions of the body. The result of this overload is a) the foreign toxins aren’t appropriately detoxified and therefore stored in our tissues causing toxic dysfunction or b) the normal functions of the liver become compromised resulting in organ dysfunction and suboptimal health or most likely c) both situations occur simultaneously. As stated before, excess toxin exposure and inadequate toxin removal can reveal itself also as brain fog, fatigue, poor memory, mood swings, congestion and more. So the goal of this elimination diet again is to support both the reduction of intestinal food triggers as well as reducing the amount of voluntarily ingested toxins while simultaneously supplying specific nutrients to support the health and function of the liver, kidneys and gastrointestinal system. Eliminating the foods most likely to be inflammatory and immune triggers gives the gastrointestinal system a chance to heal itself and improve the integrity and function of the gut barrier. As a result, the overactive immune system and elevated inflammation can calm down, resulting in greater energy, reduced pain and an improvement in overall vitality. Simultaneously reducing the toxin overload allows the body to begin eliminating previously stored toxins and to restore the liver to its proper physiological housekeeping roles, reducing the toxin-induced dysfunction which can show up as excess fat storage and blood sugar imbalances, altered brain function and what is often described as just feeling “sick and tired” as well as other symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but keep in mind that food is extremely important, too. There are compounds in food that will never be able to be captured in any supplement. I’d recommend up to 4 servings per day of either Inflam Px or Primal Clear 2.0, with at least one good, solid food meal at the minimum.
Yes, you can achieve great results with just food. The supplements are designed as targeted nutritional support where our diets often fall short—sometimes just because of the inadequacy of the food supply—and will help you get faster, better results. But don’t let that stop you from just making changes to your diet and beginning the journey towards a better, healthier, and more energetic you.
Obviously, we prefer that you avoid meat from animals that have been grown with the use of antibiotics, hormones, and less than ideal feed. Remember, during this time, you won’t be going to fast-food restaurants, your regular coffee drive-thru, or eating expensive junk food, so you might actually be saving money. If you do find that you can’t afford the better meats, just do the best you can and don’t let that stop you.
important to get organic rather than conventional. Yes, my favorite resource for that information is from www.ewg.org. You can just do an internet search for the Clean Fifteen and the Dirty Dozen to help with that decision.
You can just divide up the doses and take them with your meals.
