HOW TO TAKE PRIMAL DEFENSEä
"ULTRA
ZORBE
ä CAPLETS"*

*Garden of Life's UltraZorbeä (ultra-absorption) caplet delivery system is a revolutionary technology -borrowed from the pharmaceutical industry- whereby all ingredients used retain their maximum nutritive content, viability , and "live" properties.  The UltraZorbeä caplet delivery system accomplishes this without the use of heat, animal products, traditional binders, fillers, or excipients.  UltraZorbeä caplets are designed to provide rapid disintegration and dissolution. thus delivering the nutrients in the most efficient and effective time frame possible.  With the changeover from gelatin capsules to UltraZorbeä caplets, Primal Defenseä is now a 100% vegetarian product.

HOW MANY / HOW LONG.  This is a therapeutic product.  Proceed gradually.  Primal Defense begins to clean out toxins and pathogens right away.  However, if you go too quickly,  the cleansing will occur faster than the body can eliminate the accumulated toxins.  This may cause some discomfort (see '"What to Expect When taking Primal Defense").

1. How many: Start with one caplet per day (900 mg. caplet) and WORK UP TO A MINIMUM OF SIX PER DAY for an average of about three months.  This is done by taking one caplet the first few days, two the next few days, etc.  People with severe problems may want to work up to and stay on a higher serving longer.  THE THERAPEUTIC SERVING FOR CHRONIC OR PROBLEMATIC ILLNESS IS AN AVERAGE OF TWELVE (12) 900 MG. CAPLETS PER DAY.  During the three-month period you will saturate your body with beneficial bacteria and allow the immune system functions to react.  After three months or so you can gradually decrease back to the RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE SERVING OF 3 CAPLETS PER DAY (1 bottle per month).

2. Water.  Drink plenty of water: 8 -10 oz. of only distilled or reverse-osmosis filtered water.

3. When to take.  Primal Defenseä is most effective when taken on a timed schedule.  It is best to take the product 2-3 times per day equally spaced out by time. Take on an empty stomach at least 1/2 hour before meals, first thing in the morning or before bed.

PROHIBITIONS.  The following prohibitions should be observed:
1. NO CHLORINATED WATER.  Chlorine can kill beneficial bacteria in the body.  Use distilled or reverse-osmosis filtered water only.  Drinking chlorinated water once in a while (such as in a restaurant) is OK.

2. NO HARSH HERBAL COLON CLEANSES.  These may be too invasive and interfere with the bacterial balance.  If constipation occurs take a mild herbal laxative.  HSOsä cleanse the colon of putrefaction and balance colonic bacterial environment.  This is generally accomplished in a gentle, systematic manner.

3. COLON HYDROTHERAPY (physical cleanses, water only, no oxygen) are OK, especially in the beginning when toxins may accumulate.  HSOsä are nature's cleansing agents: you may implant several caplets if desired.

4. NO PARASITE KILLERS.  Primal Defenseä will assist the body with the elimination of parasites, both regular and amebic.  Some herbal parasite killers may interfere with the soil organisms' ability to colonize.

5. ANTIBIOTIC DRUGS.  It is believed that antibiotics MAY kill much of the bacteria in the GI track, although some strains may survive. There's no definitive research on this subject: the developing biochemist recommends continuing to take Primal Defenseä (as far apart from the antibiotic ingestion as possible) and to increase the serving after the antibiotics.  Do not take Primal Defenseä within several hours of other medications.

LIFESTYLE ADJUSTMENTS.  Many things we do in our daily life affect the bacterial balance, absorption, and the immune system.  The following adjustments are suggested to increase your body's positive response.

1. DECREASE COFFEE consumption.  The acid in coffee will interfere with the bacterial environment.  Try to consume no more than 1 cup per day.

2. DECREASE SUGAR and CARBOHYDRATES (incl. pasta).  These feed parasites and yeast/fungus and can cause imbalances leading to diabetes and other abnormal conditions.  Most of us have yeast and fungus overgrowth.  Although Primal Defenseä will deal with this over time, why feed the pathogens if you don't have to?  Many people report a decrease in sugar/carbohydrate cravings after being on the product for several months.

3. INCREASE FRESH FRUIT and VEGETABLE consumption.  This will facilitate good elimination.  Try our concentrated whole food product PERFECT FOODä.  It is the equivalent of 5-10 servings of nutrient-dense organic vegetables and the Vitamin C of two servings of fruit in one serving.  There are no fillers and no herbs in this formula and people who use it report increased energy and better elimination.

4. INCREASE WATER consumption.  You should be drinking at least eight 8-oz glasses of good water (not juice) a day on an empty stomach.  Water helps flush toxins from the body to prevent re-absorption.

OTHER SUPPLEMENTS OR MEDICATION.  Primal Defenseä can increase absorption.  This means everything you ingest, including supplements, drugs, and food, will be absorbed and assimilated better. You will need to monitor any medication, such as insulin and blood pressure medicine, to insure you are not taking too much.  Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and whole food supplements (such as greens) are fine.  Many people can eliminate enzyme supplements; Primal Defenseä is enzymatic in action especially when taken before meals.  Primal Defenseä can replace other probiotics.  Primal Defenseä contains ocean phytoplanktons (similar to blue/green algae) which contains over 70 micronutrients.  These micro-nutrients are easily absorbed, providing a good base of trace minerals, proteins, and enzymes.
