Description

The human body has an extraordinary ability to detoxify itself. We rely on this system when we wait for a hangover to lift or recover from a bout of food poisoning.
 
However, cutting-edge science is revealing how toxic exposures can actually affect our genes and lead to conditions such as obesity, cognitive dysfunction, pain, allergies, infertility, and heart disease—all of which are on the rise.The good news is that each of us can optimize this natural cleansing system for better health, greater energy, and efficient weight loss.
 
In The Detox Prescription, Dr. Merrell draws on new research to help readers assess their own toxic risk factors and health deficiencies. Collaborating with Mary Beth Augustine, RD, he offers more than 100 delicious and nutrient-rich recipes incorporating juices and whole foods, broken into 3-, 7-, and 21-day cleanses.
 
Dr. Merrell’s holistic system of light yoga, meditation, and other stress-busting practices will help reset body, mind, and spirit–and allow us to take control of our genetic destiny.


This book is a well organized book that starts explaining the toxins in our environment and gives several surveys for the read to take to discover the toxic level of the individual.
 
The next step is the grocery lists for the detox diet, which most readers found helpful and time saving. The suggested detox diets follow with other health suggestions. Many look forward to following the advise in the book to live a healthier lifestyle.
 
In fact, Dr Merrell presents a very compelling argument for the benefits of a whole foods, organic diet. In addition, he explains how exposure to toxins, which are virtually ubiquitous, can lead to seemingly innocuous and more serious medical problems.
 
Dr Merrell provides a prescription for relief from headaches to arthritis pain to IBS. This book contains a complete description of the process of detoxification, a menu for several detox diets each varying in duration, shopping lists and recipes.
 
If you are planning on trying a juice cleanse or detox, this book gives you all the tools to do so. The recipes are not overly complex and there is a huge variety of foods to choose from, all you need is a juicer and a blender.
 
He goes on to give the 3,7, and 21 day detox methods and then toward the end of the book he gives recipes to start on our way.he also helps us to trouble shoot what may or may not work under this program.

Foreword by Dean Ornish, MD:
 
“This book can transform your life. Here’s why: Our bodies often have a remarkable capacity to begin healing if we allow them to do so—to a much greater degree and more quickly than had previously been realized—if we simply stop doing what’s causing the problem.
 
In this wonderful new book, Dr. Woodson “Woody” Merrell broadens the concept of detoxification beyond food to include these other aspects of our lives that so profoundly affect our health.
 
When we realize what’s causing the problem, we can make different choices that allow our bodies to begin healing. Dr. Merrell shows how, and why. He can help you tailor a program that’s just right for you, one that is based on good science and extensive clinical experience. You’ve come to the right place.
 
I’ve known and admired Dr. Merrell for many years. He is a renowned leader and pioneering clinician in helping to create a new paradigm of true health care, rather than just sick care—one that is more caring and compassionate as well as more cost effective and competent. He is an extraordinary healer and educator. His patients love him, and so do I. You’re in good hands.
 
I’m continually amazed by how dynamic the biological mechanisms are that affect our health and well-being—for better and for worse. When you follow Dr. Merrell’s recommendations, you’re likely to feel so much better, so quickly, it reframes the reason for making and maintaining these changes from fear of dying (which is not sustainable) to joy of living (which is).”
