Your Nutritional and Vitamin Supplement Information Resource

Today will discuss and provide some suggestions on taking your nutritional supplement during the first week to first month. This period is often called the Loading Phase and consists of taking a Loading Dose of your nutritional supplement. While we concentrate on starting an Aloe Vera and Sea Vegetable supplement it can be effectively applied to starting a liquid nutritional supplement of your choice. From this brief discussion you’ll know how to get the best and the most from every serving you take during those important first few weeks of starting your vitamin supplement. 

First, if you have not already done so, complete a Health Evaluation Questionnaire and determine your health index. Once you complete the questionnaire and have determined your health index, view the article on “Evaluating Your Health Index and What to Do with the Results.” With the results of the questionnaire and the evaluation of your health index, you will have an exact idea of the amount and frequency of your liquid nutritional vitamin that you should be taking on a regular basis. If you simply wanted to taste the supplement to see if it is right for you, a serving of one to two ounces is adequate. You will not receive any immediate health benefits but at least you can see if you like the taste!

How to Take Your Loading Serving:

1. For most people, but confirm it during the evaluation process of your Health Index, they will consume two ounces of an Aloe Vera and Sea Plant supplement two to three times per day.

2. Measure two ounces of the supplement and pour it into a drinking glass. Drink this all at once or sip it. Holding it under your tongue is the best way to start the absorption process of a liquid vitamin. There are special cells under the tongue designed to absorb nutrient dense liquids such as your favorite liquid nutritional supplement.

3. Take your second two-ounce serving at least four to six hours after your first. Your body has probably used up the nutrients you consumed earlier in the day. It craves more nutrients to continue the regeneration and healing process it started earlier. More fuel is required during this first phase. You want to saturate your body with the nutrients, which is why it is called the Loading Phase. You are loading your body with the nutrients it needs to kick start the healing process.

4. If you want to or feel you need to, try a third two-ounce serving late in the evening.

5. Follow this Loading Serving Procedure for at least one week. You can then transition to the Maintenance Phase taking a Maintenance Serving. A Maintenance Serving is typically two to four ounces once per day, usually in the morning.

I won’t go into the details of cleansing here but cleansing is an important part of the Loading Phase.  Cleansing is where you body is getting rid of toxins - hence the name, cleansing.  Cleansing can appear as a rash where toxins are being released through the skin.  As congestion or stuffiness where toxins are being released through the mucus membranes, nasal passages, eyes, etc.  As loose stool or strong smelling urine where toxins are being released through the digestive tract.  Men’s and women’s health rely on getting rid of toxins so while it is uncomfortable for a short period, your body will be much better off if you complete the cleansing.

Consistency during the Loading Phase is key to obtaining the maximum benefit from starting a nutritional supplement.  Your first week of taking a nutritional supplement will flood your body with nutrients and kick start the repair and regenerative processes.  You can cut back to reduce the effects of the cleansing process but I would strongly recommend that you not stop.  Most cleansing lasts only a few days.  Without the toxins in your body, most people feel much healthier, have more energy and experience a sense of well being.  I’m all for that!
