1. What is the dosage?
10ml x 3 times per day – regular and preferred dose.
15ml x 2 times per day is OK especially for working people.
Maximum dosage is 20ml x 3 times per day usually by larger sized people and those with lazy bowels.
Do not take 30ml in one dose daily unless you are after a laxative effect.
2. How do I take CleanseU?
Mix in a glass of water or juice then follow with a second glass of water. Blackcurrant juice masks the taste most effectively.
CleanseU can also be taken straight and then followed by a glass of water.
3. Are there any dietary restrictions?
Generally no. If the consumer believes they may suffer from candida then avoid all dairy products for the first week. Of course it will help if you do follow a healthy diet with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables during the course.
4. Why is it necessary to ensure I am drinking plenty of water during the day?
This ensures that the waste passing through the digestive tract remains fluid and is easily eliminated. We recommend drinking at least 2L per day.
5. How often will I go to the toilet?
You should be going an additional one or two times per day. This is necessary to ensure the elimination of waste and parasites occurs quickly. It is also an indication that the herbs are working effectively.
6. How long does a bottle last?
Two weeks.
7. What will I expect as I take CleanseU?
A typical consumer will experience effects within 24-48 hours. The initial flushing of bulk waste will last 3-4 days. You will probably experience an additional bowel movement one or two times per day over this period. Over the remaining 10-11 days, bowel movements will return to normal or an extra one time per day.
8. Will I experience cramping or diarrhoea?
No you should not. If you do, then reduce the dose amount or the dose frequency.
9. Why do you have Senna in the tonic?
The other herbs are very effective at removing mucous, waste, killing parasites and causing the liver to eliminate stored toxins into the digestive tract via the bile duct. All this waste passes through the small bowel and into the large intestine (colon) where it may accumulate. Most people on a low fibre Western Diet have a slow transit time so the purgative senna ensures that the body eliminates the waste quickly before it has time to compact or be reabsorbed. Senna also tones the bowel muscles by activating the peristalsis movement of the bowel.
10. Will I lose weight?
While CleanseU is not sold as a weight management tonic most users will experience a weight loss of 2-4 kilos in the first week as the excess waste and fluids are eliminated.
11. How long can I take CleanseU?
Most users will experience significant benefits after one bottle (two weeks). We recommend going onto the second bottle and extending it to four weeks if it is their first detox or they suspect they have a parasite infestation. A four week course will cover one lunar cycle which covers the breeding cycle of parasitic worms. If there are any parasite eggs left over they will be killed upon hatching and thus the breeding cycle will be stopped.
The extra two weeks will also give the liver more time to completely eliminate stored toxins and repair.
We do not recommend extending the course beyond four weeks as this may lead to dependence.
12. Why is CleanseU a liquid tonic?
We believe that liquid herbal extracts are the most potent and efficient method to introduce healing herbs to the body. Liquids ensure fast and complete digestion and allow for easy dosage control.
13. Why do you use potassium sorbate?
Potassium sorbate is used as a preservative. It is a naturally occurring unsaturated fatty acid, is completely safe and has the lowest allergenic potential of all food preservatives.
14. Is it safe for pregnant women?
Yes it is but it is recommended that you seek medical advice before taking CleanseU.
15. Is it safe for children?
CleanseU is not recommended for children under 12 years of age.
16. I have completed the CleanseU detox. How long before I can do another detox?
Most users find that they benefit from a course of CleanseU every 4-6 months.
17. I started taking CleanseU and now I am feeling tired and sluggish. What is happening?
These symptoms are typical of a healing crisis. This happens when toxins are released from storage (in the liver and fatty tissues) as part of the elimination cycle. On one hand it is actually a good sign that your body is healing itself but unfortunately the symptoms are not pleasant. Generally this will improve after the first week. Please ensure that you are drinking plenty of water (2L+ per day) as this will assist in the elimination. To help get through the healing crisis try the following steps:
1. reduce the dose to 1 x 10ml per day
2. if the symptoms improve then continue at 10ml/day for at least three days
3. increase to 2 x 10ml/day for 3 more days
4. increase to 3 x 10ml/day.
If at any stage the symptoms come back then go back to the lower dose for a few more days. You may need to spread the detox over a much longer period.
18. What is the history of CleanseU?
The herbal formulation used in CleanseU was developed in the early 1980’s in Australia. It is used as the basis of treatment for many of the 200+ patients seen each week in the Pinnacle Health Clinic located in Sydney. It is also used by Healthcare Practitioners nationwide under the Pinnacle practitioner dispensing brand. The formulation is based on the Naturopathic principle that detoxification and elimination are the first steps to better health.
The Pinot retail brand was created in the 1990’s initially so that users could source the product from retail outlets directly. CleanseU was the retail name given to the Pinnacle Herbal Tonic.
19. I have Colitis/Crohns. Is CleanseU safe to use?
Yes. If you have a severe condition then start taking CleanseU as outlined in point 17 above.
20. I have taken CleanseU before but this bottles tastes different, why?
As CleanseU is a natural product and includes naturally grown herbs over time, seasonal and environmental variations may occur which alters the taste. Although it may taste different, rest assured that it is still the exact same tonic in batch and strength.
