- An inclusion in traditional cleansing blends for centuries in the western World, due to its cholagogue and cholorectic activity
- in modern language, this means that it increases both the production and release of bile from the liver.
- As bile is a transport medium for fat soluble toxins as they exit the liver, increasing its flow increases removal of such compounds. The whole process starts when the taste buds detects the bitter compounds of the Dandelion root, which in turn causes the reflex that leads to the increased bile production and gall bladder contraction. Burdock root
- Another classic ingredient. Similar to dandelion, burdock root has a powerful bitter compound that has the same kind of interaction with taste buds in order to cause the reflexive stimulation that cause the increase in bile production and release.
- Burdock has the added benefit of

also having a mild stimulatory activity upon the intestinal tract. This is due to the presence of compounds that can cause a gentle contraction of the gut wall, allowing a slightly faster peristaltic movement. Artichoke
- One of the oldest liver tonics around. The bitter properties being delivered by a compound called caffeoylquinic acid.
- Also contains a compound called chlorogenic acid that delivers a notable diuretic activity. Nettle
- A traditional addition to any cleansing mix. Nettle has a mild stimulatory activity on two major routes of elimination
- the lymphatic and urinary systems. Dandelion Leaf
- The King of natural diuretics. Dandelion has been compared against powerful pharmaceutical diuretics, including bendrofluazide.
- Dandelion leaves are rich in potassium and will therefore replace the potassium loss caused by the increased urinary output – nature always provides. Cleavers
- The best lymphatic herb on the planet, used for centuries as a seasonal cleansing support and as a remedy for fluid retention and swollen glands.
- Contains the powerful compounds coumarins. These chemicals cause a powerful contraction of lymphatic vessels, which causes a more rapid movement of lymphatic fluid than normally occurs. Acacia Honey
- Acacia is one of the sweetest

varieties of honey and is made by bees consuming the nectar of acacia flowers. It has high concentration of fructose and has a low GI. Adding the honey is an old herbal tradition, it also makes the bitter herbs more palatable, therefore assuring better patient compliance. Dosage 20 drops 3 times a day in water or juice.
