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 system. Regarding food
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 doesnt function optimally, substances
which shouldnt 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 arent 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.

Dietary and Supplement Program

Following this program, you will gradually be removing the foods that are most likely to cause an
allergenic or inflammatory response while increasing the consumption of the functional food powder.

Before starting, recommend doing first morning salivary and urinary pH testing.
Average pH = (salivary pH X 2 + urinary pH)/2. Ok to just use salivary.
If pH is below 6.4, recommend 1 week of 2 servings/day of Wellness Greens and additional green
vegetables until pH above 6.4.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. It says to have 2 servings per day of the functional food powder. If its more
convenient for m e, can I have m ore than that?
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. Id 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.
Q. Im not sure I can afford the supplements. Can this be done with just food alone
and no supplements?
Yes, you can achieve great results with just food. The supplements are designed as targeted
nutritional support where our diets often fall shortsometimes just because of the inadequacy of the
food supplyand will help you get faster, better results. But dont let that stop you from just making
changes to your diet and beginning the journey towards a better, healthier, and more energetic you.
Q. W hat if I cant afford expensive grass-fed meat or wild game? Is regular meat
that bad for me?
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 wont 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 cant afford the better meats, just do the best you can
and dont let that stop you.
Q. If I cant afford to buy all organic fruits and vegetables, are there certain kinds
that are more 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.
Q. Is there a certain time of day that Im supposed to take my supplements?
You can just divide up the doses and take them with your meals.
