                  High-potency, 50+ billion CFUs.
                  Ther-Biotic Detoxification Support delivers large amounts of specific 
probiotics to the intestinal tract to complement detoxification protocols such 
as broad-spectrum antibiotics, anti-fungal/anti-microbial medications, or heavy 
metal chelating agents that can compromise friendly flora. Toxins and metabolic 
by-products generated during use of these agents can exacerbate intestinal 
dysbiosis and disturb the healthy balance of intestinal flora.
                  Ther-Biotic Detoxification Support provides two colonizing Lactobacillus and 
one endogenous Bifidobacterium probiotic species that can support the body’s 
natural detoxification process by metabolizing or reducing the uptake of toxins 
in the gut thereby facilitating the elimination of toxins and by-products from 
the intestinal tract. Formulated with 50+ billion CFUs per capsule, Ther- 
Biotic Detoxification Support uses our proprietary InTactic technology to 
ensure maximum delivery of live microorganisms throughout the intestinal tract. 
Once a healthy balance of intestinal flora is achieved, use of Ther-Biotic 
Complete or Vital-10 is recommended for daily maintenance. This product is 
often suitable for individuals adhering to the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD) 
program.*

                    Ideas for Alternative Protein Sources

                      Alternative Protein Sources

                      Antioxidant Rich foods: EAT FROM THE RAINBOW!
                      RED: Lycopene
                      YELLOW/ORANGE: Beta Carotene & Beta Crytoxanthin
                      BLUE/PURPLE: Anthocyanins
                      GREEN: Chlorophyll

                      GREEN FOOD BASICS:
                      Green foods have a high content of chlorophyll due to porphyrin rings.
                      * Chlorophyll and heme units of red blood cells are virtually identical except the center molecule
                      * Chlorophyll-magnesium
                      * Heme-Iron
                      * Heme units are the building blocks for red blood cells
                      * Therefore, all green foods help the body to create new blood.

                      IRON:
                      There are two types of iron —
                      Heme: found in animal foods
                      Non-heme: Comes from plants.
                      Heme iron (the kind from animals) is better absorbed than non-heme iron.
                      Darker meat is better, more oxygen to the muscles leave the brown color, not fat content. Usually leg/rump cuts are best.
