Flor Essence Diet
- Flor-Essence may be available at some retailers, but it is easiest to find at an online supplement merchant. For about $30, you can purchase one of two versions of Flor-Essence: a dry powder and a liquid. They both contain the same extracts but use different delivery systems.
- Your dosage depends on what you are using Flor-Essence for. When using as a maintenance product or as a tonic, drink 1 to 2 ounces a day, either in the early morning, 30 minutes before eating or before bed. For cleansing and detoxifying, take 2 ounces twice daily and 30 minutes before any meal or at bedtime. When you are in bad health, take 3 ounces twice daily and 30 minutes before any meal or at bedtime. Dilute Flor-Essence with an equal or double amount of hot water.
- Slippery elm bark, Turkish rhubarb root, sheep sorrel and burdock root are all used for their purported digestive benefits, which include relieving constipation, diarrhea, gastrointestinal hemorrhages and ulcers. Among the ingredients in Flor-Essence, kelp is best known for its antioxidant properties. It also contains iodine, which may help improve thyroid function.
Most herbal products have little or no peer-reviewed scientific studies to back health claims. - Making healthy lifestyle changes will help Flor-Essence work properly, according to its manufacturer. Eat wholesome foods such as deeply colored fruits and vegetables, whole grains and legumes. Focus on foods that are high in fiber and nutrient-dense.
- The manufacturer states that positive signs will let you know if you are making progress with Flor-Essence. For instance, your sleep patterns and mood may improve, your digestion may normalize, and your energy may increase.
Proponents say that Flor-Essence gently flushes toxic residue from your body. Detoxing, however, is a controversial subject in the mainstream scientific community. Most establishment experts say that the human body is perfectly capable of handling detoxification on its own.
