Flor • Essence
gently removes toxins
Flor • Essence has earned worldwide respect as a gentle yet powerful
detoxifying and revitalizing formula. Most other cleansing kits
aggressively remove accumulated waste with often harsh side-effects and
rarely deal with toxins that infiltrate all our organs and tissues.
Flor • Essence liquid gently flushes toxic residue from the kidneys,
liver, lungs, colon, and bloodstream.
The active components in the herbs contained in Flor • Essence also
improve digestion and cleanse the intestinal organs, gently removing
'sludge' that prevents full absorption of vital nutrients. Strong
bowel-evacuating herbs may irritate the colon and repeated colonics can
wash away valuable friendly bacteria. With digestion improved, Flor •
Essence keeps food from fermenting in the intestinal tract and from
becoming a source of toxins. The results are healthier, toxin-free
cells, improved digestion, optimal health and vibrant energy.
ABOUT
FLOR • ESSENCE
Flor • Essence is based on a traditional eight herb formula
which has been used for over 100 years by health conscious persons
worldwide. The formula possesses numerous beneficial components
including trace elements, vitamins, minerals, phytoestrogens,
anti-oxidants and other active substances. A literature review
conducted by the University of Texas Center for Alternative Medicine
Research (UT-CAM) identified 107 references on the principal herbs used
in Flor • Essence. Participants in the University of Texas survey
reported feeling and coping better, increased energy and reduced
symptoms after treatment with Flor • Essence. Recent clinical research
conducted with the Russian Ministry of Health revealed that Flor •
Essence helps boost the immune system and is an effective aid for
chronic gastrointestinal discomfort. A study conducted by the
University of British Columbia in Canada found Flor • Essence to
possess powerful antioxidant properties. For example, one molecule of
vitamin C or vitamin E destroys one free radical, whereas one molecule
of Flor • Essence destroys 14 free radicals.
When to detoxify:
It is recommended that you complete at least a
one-month detoxification program with Flor • Essence every six months
to maintain good health. However, if you are not in good health, are
low in energy, it is important to remain on a cleansing and
detoxification program until health has returned, energy levels have
increased, and you no longer feel any physical symptoms associated with
these stages.
Safe & simple to
use:
Flor • Essence can be purchased ready-made or be
prepared at home. Take on its own or as a tea by diluting the amount
listed below with an equal or double amount of hot or cold water. Use
spring or distilled water when preparing. Sip slowly.
Adults: Take 2 oz. of Flor • Essence twice daily.
Children: (2-12 years of age): Give 1 oz. of Flor • Essence twice daily.
Infants: (0-2 years of age): Give 1 oz. of Flor • Essence per day.
Note: Take on an empty stomach, 1/2 hour before any meal, and at
bedtime.
After opening, keep refrigerated and consume within 3 weeks.
How long does one box of dry
Flor • Essence last?
One box makes a total of 96 ozs or 3 liters of the
concentrate from 3 pouches.
What temperature should the water be?
The liquid concentrate is stored in the fridge, so
it is cold. When the amount to be taken is poured into a glass or cup,
and hot water added to it, it will be warmed approximate to body
temperature. Many medicinal ingredients in liquids are better absorbed
by the body when diluted with hot water.
Should I take care to use
non-fluoridated water?
Fluoride does not interfere with the absorption of
Flor • Essence, but the added fluoride in municipal water is not
beneficial to the body. It is best to use spring or distilled water in
the brewing procedure.
Is it okay to brew the tea with
half the amount of water per pouch to make it more concentrated?
The reason for the 5 cups of water per pouch is so
that the max amount of the active ingredients will be pulled out of the
herbal material. Half the amount might mean that the liquid would be
fully saturated with the active ingredients before all of them were out
of the plant material, and therefore some of the potency would be lost.
The package does not produce 32
ozs or 1 liter of the tea in brewing.
What can be done?
Three possible causes for the lack of ozs:
1) A shallow pot: Stainless steel "soup stock pots"
have the depth needed for the steam to re-condense and return to the
boiling liquid. A 16 quart pot, available at WalMart for less than $30,
is large enough to brew up 2 BOXES at a time. Two boxes require 30 cups
of water, and this only fills the 16 quart pot halfway, leaving enough
head room for the steam to cool, re-condense, and fall back into the
liquid again.
2) The lid must be left on the pot during the
boiling time. The moment the liquid starts boiling, steam will push out
under the lid, indicating that the burner can be turned down to medium.
This is the moment to turn the timer on for 10-12 minutes. Doing this
prevents the boiling liquid from overflowing the top of the pot, and
from creating and losing too much steam.
3) Every single drop of liquid from the big pot
needs to be strained, including the sediment. The liquid sediment will
of course plug the strainer, and it needs to be stirred with a
teaspoon, until as much of the liquid as possible has gone through.
Obviously, some of the very fine sediment will get into the bottle,
during the stirring. Let it settle out in the bottom of the jar, and
when taking the tea, just pour the liquid off the top. When the
sediment is reached, discard it.
NOTE: The sediment can be consumed if desired. Just
shake the jar before pouring out the amount to take.
Caution about Flor • Essence:
* NEVER store the Flor • Essence in plastic.
An
undesirable reaction occurs between the plastic and acidic qualities
in the Flor • Essence.
* Sometimes the concentrate can be quite glutinous.
This is a natural property of the Slippery Elm and the Burdock. It will
dissolve and dissipate when hot water is added to the cold concentrate
when the dosage is diluted before consumption.
* There are no preservatives in the concentrate made
at home. Please make sure bottles are sterile, and the liquid, once
prepared, is kept in the refrigerator.
* DO NOT FREEZE THE LIQUID. This
will
negate all the active properties.
Contra-indications?
Although for most people there are no problems,
nonetheless, caution should be exercised. If dealing with severe health
issues such as: kidney dialysis, because of the levels of potassium and
phosphorus; or severe blood pressure problems. Since the tea can help
rid the body of the substances that may be affecting your body, it is
always best to let your doctor know what you are doing.
Chemotherapy and
Radiation?
Flor • Essence can safely be taken during
chemotherapy or radiation, and should be, since it may help the patient
deal with many of the side effects of these therapies. In a sense it
helps the immune system identify cells and cellular masses that are
foreign to the body. Chemo drugs, as such, do not have a cellular
structure, neither does radiation, so essentially this liquid will not
interfere. However, these treatments do produce waste material, and
Flor • Essence will target these. Chemo and radiation add toxins to the
body, producing more wastes, making a longer cleansing time, but this
liquid will not interfere with the chemo and radiation.
Conflict with drugs?
There is no known contraindication for using Flor •
Essence with any other medical therapy or drug. To the best of our
knowledge, Flor • Essence does not interfere with any allopathic
treatment, nor with any alternative treatment. The liquid goes after
toxic or cellular waste resulting from regular metabolism. Any natural
therapy will, of course, work quickest and best going into a body that
is free of as many drugs as possible. To the best of our knowledge, it
can be taken safely with any form of treatment. The secrets with this
herbal treatment are perseverance and patience.
Pregnancy and nursing mothers:
One of the herbs in Flor • Essence, Burdock root, is
understood to be a uterine muscle stimulant, and the possibility exists
that it might cause a spontaneous discharge. We have NO documentation
that this has ever occurred with Flor • Essence, but it is better to be
safe than sorry. Nursing mothers need to understand that the body will
use the quickest means available to get rid of toxic substances and
waste products. The possibility exists that it could use the mother's
milk. Therefore although Flor • Essence itself can be taken by infants,
it is not recommended for pregnancy or nursing mothers. The tea is a
very efficient detoxifier, and the body will always work with something
that is trying to cleanse it, however these wastes should not go to the
new-born.
Who should not take
Flor•Essence?
- Pregnant and nursing women
- People with an anaphylactic shock reaction
to iodine
- People who have had an organ transplant:
lung, liver, heart, kidney or other organ,
(because Flor•Essence may interfere with the anti-rejection drugs).
- Bone marrow transplants, when the origin of
the marrow is from the patient,
and the patient is not on anti-rejection drugs do fine.
- People who are very environmentally
sensitive should start with much lesser amounts
and build up to the higher ones on a very gradual basis.
