Answers
1) Why does the ÉJUVA program take
longer than other cleansing programs?
It is a widely held misconception that deep intestinal cleansing can be
accomplished in a few
days or a week. In fact it takes absolute years to clean out
the average Liver using herbs.
Dozens of intestinal cleansing programs promote the idea of
a “spring cleaning.”
Most of these so-called ‘quick cleanse’ products stimulate
the intestine with herbs that widen
the bowel, stimulate peristalsis, mobilize accumulated fecal
matter and thus merely increase the
frequency of bowel movements. While increased elimination
gives consumers some relief, they do
not address the removal of tenacious waste deposits that
have accumulated over the years.
It makes sense that short term cleanses cannot eliminate
long-term waste build-up. It took
months, perhaps even years, for your body to become
unbalanced.
These short term cleanses are little more than "Herbal
Laxitives." Restoring optimal health requires
an investment of time and energy in the healing process.
Deep cleansing is best done more slowly
over the course of one month to ensure removal of parasites
and their eggs. This is accomplished
with the safe yet powerful health-promoting herbs found in
all ÉJUVA products.
We recommend repeating the EJUVA program after six months,
up to twice every year, until you feel
clean. This allows your body to maintain the cleansing,
health-building action of the herbs for
extended periods. The body is not a machine or mechanical
apparatus to be flushed or swept out
“Roto-Rooter style.” Healthful cleansing does not shock the
body into eliminating bodily waste.
Instead, proper cleansing helps bring the body into a state
of balance by ridding itself of mucoid
debris, toxins, and parasites. Intestinal cleansing with
herbs and plants offers the wonderful
opportunity to restore our bowels to a state of optimal
health.

2) There
are several other cleansing programs available in the health
marketplace. Why is yours better?
A: Intestinal cleansing is certainly not a new idea, and it
is true that there are other cleansing systems
out there. The majority, however, either do not go deep
enough to rid the body of harmful old
mucoid deposits and toxins, or they are too harsh on the
body as well as being addictive. We do
not use bentonte clay. In my opinion, clay is too harsh, too
drying and too full of heavy metals
to even consider being safe.
The Éjuva intestinal regeneration and renewal program is
unique in that is based on a synthesis
Ayurvedic, Western, Japanese and Chinese herbs whose
efficacy has stood the test of time.
Many people who use other intestinal programs find
themselves out of balance for months afterwards.
Some even suffer ongoing gastric disturbances. Our program
was specifically designed to
avoid this and keep people of all body types balanced during
the program, and afterwards. It
was not easy to create an intestinal cleansing system that
was nurturing, yet powerfully effective.
We feel we’ve accomplished this, and Éjuva is endorsed by
many of the world’s most respected
health authorities.

3) Your
program is expensive. Why is that?
The Éjuva program is made with MANY organic and wildcrafted
herbs wherever possible. This attention
to quality drives the costs up. In addition, absolutely no
fillers, binders, flow agents, or
preservatives are ever used. In fact, when we were looking
for a laboratory to compress our
vegetarian capsule products, none were able to meet our stringent
conditions. In order to make our vegetarian capsules
without using these harmful ingredients, Éjuva uses a
proprietary, no-heat process developed
by Éjuva’s formulator, Steven Hurwitz.
Our vegetarian capsules have nothing in them but the purest of plant
ingredients. This also means that because
there are no flow agents to help the powders run through a
hopper into the encapsulating machine,
a trained technician must be there to constantly supervise
the machine, stirring the powders to
maintain proper flow. Again, this increases our costs.

4) Who
should cleanse?
Almost everyone, except for extremely weakened individuals,
can benefit from proper intestinal
cleansing. Even if you eat an ideal diet, you may not be
receiving all the available health enhancing
nutrients if your intestines aren’t properly digesting and
assimilating the food you
eat. During an intestinal cleanse, the body expels unwanted
digestive waste matter, unhealthy
bowel flora and old mucus layers, all of which are ideal
breeding grounds for parasites and fungi
(such as Candida albicans). Intestinal cleansing also
facilitates the mobilization and elimination of
stored toxins from the blood, organs, lymphatic system and
other tissues.
While cleansing often helps the body fight or prevent
illness, it is important to remember that
not every health problem can be helped by cleansing. A
myriad of other factors, such as genetic
weaknesses, structural injuries and imbalances, emotional
stress, environmental poisoning, also
contribute to illness. Nevertheless, cleansing HAS proven to
be effective with conditions such
as compromised immune systems, Epstein-Barr virus, Herpes,
Candida, parasites, Roseola (a
form of middle-age acne), sluggish liver, low blood sugar
and mood swings. Many ailments that
at first glance appear to have nothing to do with the
intestines (certain skin diseases, fatigue,
problems with weight, weak immune systems and fungal
diseases) have been greatly improved
or eliminated entirely with intestinal cleansing.
Cleansing is not recommended for women during pregnancy,
post-operative patients, and those
whose health is very fragile due to any number of causes.
People taking allopathic medications, or
who have intestinal inflammation, diverticulitis, colon
cancer or similar conditions, should seek
the help of a qualified health practitioner before
undergoing any cleansing program.

5) I’ve
never fasted. Do I have to?
No. In fact, for many elderly individuals or the infirm, it
is often better to stay on Phase 3 for two
weeks instead of going on to Phase 4 .

6) Other
cleansing programs use bentonite clay in their formulas. Why
don’t you?
A: Lets be honest, Bentinite is a type of dirt, its dead,
its acidic, its dehydrating, it costs the body in valuable
nutrients to expel from the body, and according to
independent laboratory analyses, bentonite clay contains
roughly 22% aluminum. While it has not been conclusively
proven, there is sufficient evidence that aluminum
plays a role in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease and
osteoporosis.
Bentonite is not used in any Éjuva product. Instead, I have
created RENEW, an Ayurvedic, Chinese, Japanese
formulation of herbs and fruits. I consider this a major
breakthrough. In RENEW, we use the herb combination
Triphala which, rather than drying the body like bentonite
clay, RENEW pulls out toxins and naturally lubricates the
intestines, further building the immune system. We also add
herbs which are anti-fungal, antiparasitic,
and immune system supporting such as Pau d’Arco, and
Pseudowintera colorata.
Another wonderful benefit of RENEW is that those who suffer
from chronic constipation now
find welcome, gentle relief, with less need for enemas or
colonics.

7) What
about Senna? Why don’t you use Senna leaves?
Never, never, never use Senna. Not only is it habit-forming,
Senna causes intestinal griping (that
SUDDEN urge to go to the toilet) because it substitutes
normal peristaltic action with a harsh
artificial one. Many people who have used Senna have lost
their natural peristaltic action until
they cease use.

8) I am
overweight, can I do your cleanse?
A: Yes, by all means. Some have reported weight losses of up
to 40 lbs. in one month! Usually an
overweight person can expect to lose around 20 lbs. in the
first month. If you take the program on
a long-term basis after the first month, it is easy to lose
more weight and keep it off.

9) I am
underweight, can I do your cleanse?
Éjuva helps your body harmonize to its ideal body weight,
its own homeostatic “zero point.”
This means that while overweight people tend to lose weight,
people who are very thin either
do not lose additional weight during the cleanse, or only
lose a few pounds and quickly gain
them back within a few weeks.

10) Do I
need to take an enema?
The Éjuva program goes a long way to remove tremendous
amounts of toxins and wastes from
the body. However, due to poor diet, lack of tone in the
intestines, blockages and lack of peristaltic
action, the intestines may sometimes need a little more help
in the form of an enema. Cleaning the
lower intestines with the pure water of an enema can
definitely help remove even more wastes
and blockages. In summary, enemas may not be necessary, but
they are often very helpful.

11) I
suffer from flatulence. What can I do?
One of the wonderful additional benefits of the cleansing
program is that it helps clear up flatulence.
However, if you experience any flatulence after cleansing,
try drinking peppermint or catnip tea.

12) I’m on
the road a lot, can I do the cleanse?
A: Yes, absolutely, you’ll be able to maintain control. We
even have bus drivers doing our program.
Can you imagine them saying to their passengers “hmm…, hold
on a minute, I need to……”

13) Is it
necessary to take all the products in the kit?
Yes. The components of the program are designed to
complement each other and should be

take BALANCE by itself, while not cleansing?
BALANCE can be taken by itself even after the cleanse. It is

15) I
have Candida. Will the ÉJUVA Program help me?
A: Due to the action of the program’s Ayurvedic herbs,
particularly Pseudowintera Colorata, most
people experience a significant improvement in their Candida
symptoms. For some, Candida
symptoms disappear entirely. Our CANDI NOT program is
available for those stubborn cases.

16) Can I
go back to my old “not so great” way of eating after the
program?
I don’t recommend it. Cleansing is wonderful opportunity
for you to tune into what your body
really wants and needs. Be kind to yourself. Most people
want to feel healthy after the program.
Return

17) I’ve
done many cleanses before, can‘t I start with Phase 2 or 3?
It is not recommended. The herbs need to build up a
momentum in the body. Prematurely starting
with these later Phases can short-change you of the full
elimination and balancing effects that
the program offers you.

18) I
have many food addictions. Can this help?
We receive numerous testimonials from people who have
eliminated their cravings for excess
sweets, chocolate, coffee, meat etc. The herbs are
specifically designed to help with the removal of
food addictions. Most people report eating healthier than
they ever have before.

19) Do I
need to eat a raw food diet?
A: We all possess freedom of choice. In the past,
traditional cultures honored the ways of nature
and knew the importance of eating live and raw natural foods
as a major component of their
nutritional intake. I strongly recommend eating as much raw,
uncooked foods to your diet as possible.
As mentioned before, these foods include vegetables and
fruits, germinated and sprouted
grains, nuts and seeds, alkalinizing juices, and some
dehydrated and fermented foods.
Living “raw” foods such as sprouts provide us with so much
vitality because of the abundant
bioelectrical forces present in them. Kirlian photography
has shown that the electrical energysurrounding a tray of wheatgrass enhances the bio-force
field surrounding the human body
merely by being in its proximity.
The abundance of oxygen in living foods is vitally
important. Oxygenation of the bloodstream is
essential to the nourishment of all the cells in one’s body.
Numerous studies reveal that oxygen
deprivation within the body leads to disease and death. On a
living foods diet, a continual
supply of oxygen is fed into the system—with extremely
beneficial results.
Sprouting increases the amount of nutrition in foods. As
soon as a seed, grain or nut is soaked, it
becomes more easily digested as enzyme inhibitors, phytates
(natural insecticides), oxalates, etc.,
are washed away. During the germination process, sprouts
literally spring to life: starches are
converted into simple sugars, proteins are broken down into
amino acids, fats are converted
into soluble fatty acids, and vitamins are created where
they didn’t exist in the same food in
its pre-sprouted state.
Living foods that are germinated and sprouted afford us the
most concentrated natural sources of
vitamins, chelated minerals and amino acids. They also
contain abundant enzymes and bioelectrical
energy. Pound for pound, leafy sprouts and seed or grain
sprouts yield just as much protein as
red meat, yet in a totally digestible form without saturated
fat, cholesterol, artificial hormones and
antibiotics that are found in most present-day meats.
With these simple truths in mind, it is easy to see how
harmony can be restored to the body
through the use of fresh, raw and living foods. Raw foods,
however, are not a “cure all”—there
are many other factors that create health. Among them are
simple things such as exercise, positive
mental attitude, sufficient rest, and fresh air. It seems
that not everybody can tolerate an all-raw
food diet, however. After generations of eating cooked and
highly processed foods from crops
which have been raised on poor soil, our bodies have to some
degree lost their ability to fully
extract and absorb the optimum life force and goodness from
food. If you’ve been eating a junk
food diet full of fried food and meats, gradually
transitioning to raw foods is better along with proper
supplementation.
Nevertheless, raw foods—for the majority of people—supports
maximum and optimal cleansing.
However, in your dietary transition, eating steamed
vegetables still allows cleansing to take place.
And although eating a 100% raw food diet is allows for
maximum cleansing, a 75% raw food
diet is sufficient to maintain vibrant health—assuming all
other factors that contribute to health
are being observed.

20) Why do
I need to take MOFLORA, can’t I just use plants and herbs in
my daily diet?
You could. No changes will be noticed if there are
insufficient amounts of healthy bacterial flora to begin
with (due to loss from antibiotics, stress, poor digestion,
etc.) Grown on a chicory base, the human-specific probiotic
cultures contained in MOFLORA are specifically designed to
give your intestinal tract the boost it
needs to regain its optimal bacterial balance. The Worlds
authority Dr. Ken Kobioshi says we all need 2-3 pounds of
healthy flora in us at all times. Ken formulated our
Probiotic for us and included all 9 known probiotic and they
are all a human strain (most come from cows and pigs)
