For decades folic acid has been the first line of defense for folate deficiency and related health conditions, such as high homocysteine levels and neural tube defects (2, 3). Any folic acid we ingest must be metabolized before it can be transported into cells, tissues and even across the blood-brain barrier for use. Individuals with MTHFR variants have difficulty with the final metabolic step that converts folic acid to the active form L-Methylfolate (5-MTHF), which has been shown to lead to high levels of homocysteine in the blood and low levels of certain key vitamins.

Homocysteine is an amino acid produced when proteins are broken down. High homocysteine levels, also called hyperhomocysteinemia, is usually asymptomatic by itself, but is almost always associated with a deficiency of Vitamin B12 or Folate.

Though symptoms can vary from person to person, common signs of Vitamin B12 or Folate deficiencies include fatigue, tingling sensations in extremities, muscle weakness, confusion, forgetfulness, dizziness, and mood changes.

If high homocysteine levels are allowed to go unregulated, you could be at an increased risk of developing a number of health issues. Some common conditions associated with high homocysteine are:

• Osteoporosis
• Atherosclerosis (buildup of fats and other substances in the arterial walls)
• Thrombosis (blood clots in blood vessels)
• Venous Thrombosis (blood clots in the veins)
• Coronary Artery Disease
• Stroke
• Dementia
• Alzheimer’s Disease

Absolutely. In fact, you may experience enhanced benefits as a result of pairing the products. IDNutrition is a natural complement to the Detox Box because of the targeted/personalized nature of the program.

Like with anything else in health and wellness, there are ways to maximize the results of the Detox Box by limiting your intake of sugars, alcohol, processed, fast and restaurant foods. Coupling the Detox Box with IDNutrition will also help support improved outcomes. The #1 requirement for results, however, is the consumption of plenty of water. A gallon a day is the minimum, not the goal.

The Detox Box process was developed in a medical practice over years of trial and error. IDLife is humbled to have partnered with this medical professional to put his proven process into practice for the benefit of our IDLife family.

Get back on the program as soon as possible, but don’t double up on the recommended daily dose.

Yes. The process does include nutrients that will naturally and gently improve and increase the amount of urine and excrement you produce while on the program. However, it has intentionally been designed to avoid the uncomfortable and uncontrollable trips to the bathroom that so many cleanse programs produce to make you feel like something is happening.

The recommended minimum water intake per day is 1 gallon. REMEMBER, this is a recommended minimum, not the goal, and the more water you consume the better the results will be.

Limit the Fab 5 (sugars, alcohol, processed, fast and restaurant foods) and try to add as much color to your diet as possible with every meal.

All IDLife products will help support your Detox Box, but the products that seem the most likely to help provide you support during the program are hydrate, energy, Slim+, Collagen and Shakes

Milk Thistle, which is found in the Detox, is a great supplement for those that have gallbladder issues or have had their gallbladder removed. In general, folks without a gallbladder or gallbladder issues should avoid fatty, greasy, processed, and sugary foods.

No, the capsules are made from bovine gelatin.

Should you miss your morning pack, you should take it as soon as you remember. Ideally, you should try and keep the dosing of the two packs several hours apart to avoid the potential for any uncomfortable detox reactions (i.e., nausea, bloating, rolling gut, etc.). Should you miss an entire day, do not double up the following the day. Just continue the program in the same order; meaning your program would now last 31 days.
