Alpha ENF is a meal replacement formula and can be used to supply complete nutrition during a food holiday.  Our experience suggests that there are many people who know they need or want a food holiday. Some have already tried cleansing programs or fasting and felt better. Others are aware that their food is hurting them but have not yet taken action to stop the problem. There are other people who would benefit from a food holiday but do not know it; they suffer illnesses that are food-related but the relationship between food intake and symptom production is concealed. All these people can benefit by replacing food with Alpha ENF for a food holiday.

Resolve Serious Illness

A complete food holiday, replacing food with Alpha ENF,  is the treatment for choice for delayed pattern food allergy, digestive disorders and immune-mediated inflammatory disease. A food holiday will often produce remission of disease activity in conditions such as hives, eczema, asthma, inflammatory arthritis, Crohn's disease, Celiac disease, chronic fatigue, Fibromyalgia, and irritable bowel syndrome. 

For centuries, fasting has been used as a healing strategy. Fasting can be though of as a food holiday with health benefits but the penalty is no nutrient intake. Our insight into the benefits of fasting is simple - when you stop eating problematic foods, you tend to get better. People with delayed pattern food allergy, for example, seldom know that their food is making them sick until they try fasting and feel dramatically better.

The trouble with fasting is that you are also starving - there are no nutrients coming in. You are using up all your nutrient stores and drawing on your own tissues for fuel. Alpha ENF to the rescue! Most if not all the benefits of fasting are available when you take a food holiday on Alpha ENF. You get all the nutrients minus the problems food was bringing into your body. You can take as much Alpha ENF as your body needs to supply energy and be physically active, to restore damaged tissue, and to regulate your body weight.

 Getting Started - Moving Toward the Solution

Servings of Alpha ENF replace and supplement meals and can supply part of your daily nutrition for 1 to 2 weeks before you withdraw all foods for the 10 day food holiday. You need to try the formula, get used to its mixing properties and find the best way to mix the formula so that you do not mind the taste and smell. You may want to experiment, mixing Alpha ENF in fruit juices or with fresh, frozen and canned fruits in the blender.

For example, you may start with Alpha ENF 50 grams three times a day for a total of 500 Calories per day. You would also have two meals to supply, for example, another 500 to 1000 Calories per day, depending on your needs and goals. 50 grams is about 1/2 cup of formula - mix in one or more cups (about 220 ml) of juice or water. Drink extra water between servings of Alpha ENF.

An Introductory  Alpha ENF schedule looks like this:

To go further to alleviate your symptoms, gradually reduce the amount of food you are eating and increase the number of Alpha ENF servings to 6 per day. Find the best fruit or vegetable juices as the base for your Alpha ENF meals.

The idea of detoxification has become popular

The idea of reducing the body burden of non-nutrient chemicals - toxic and otherwise has been pursued by research groups. Young et al investigated the change in serum and urinary metabolites on an elemental formula similar to Alpha ENF. They stated that urine "contains a vast number of chemical constituents...many are exogenous." These excreted chemicals were contained in the food and beverages ingested and had to be detoxified and excreted by the body. The traffic of non-nutrient chemicals through the body can be thought of as the "overburden" or a cost of food processing.

Reducing  the cost of food-processing  is metabolic rest. After several days on  Alpha ENF the concentration of  excreted chemicals began to decline. Detox and fasting have merged in some contexts; people drink juices, take herbs, and other concoctions, hoping to feel better. Often complex programs of fasting, colonics, saunas, are combined with medicinal potions. Our view is that all the benefits of all the detoxification programs can be achieved very simply, inexpensively and safely.

There are three components to a safe, effective cleansing/Detox program:

You stop ingesting the problem substances.

You ingest pure nutrients (Alpha ENF) until your body recovers normal function.

You then reintroduce the best, nourishing foods available, establish a new healthier diet, and learn how to take better care of yourself in the long-term.

Move to Complete Alpha ENF Nutrition

When you are use Alpha ENF for complete nutrition, you should have at least one 50 gram serving 6 times a day. You may need to increase the serving size until your caloric needs are met.

50 grams is about 1/2 cup of formula - mix in one or more cups (about 220 ml) of juice or water. Drink extra water between servings of Alpha ENF. One 50 gram serving is worth about 180 Calories.

Six 50 gram servings or 300 grams provides more than 1100 Calories, a recommended daily minimum intake.

The recommended average daily intake for physically active adults who want to maintain current body weight is 1000 to 2000 Calories or 300 to 600 grams per day. If you use 50 grams 6 times per day, a 1.0 kilogram bottle will last you 3.3 days. You will need about 4 kilograms to complete a 10 day food holiday. The cost of Alpha ENF per day is about $12.00 which compares favorably to the cost of the food you are not eating. Many people save money when the eat Alpha ENF and get better as a bonus.

Example of Minimum Daily Intake Schedule:

When higher caloric intakes are required, the serving size can be increased and a seventh serving added before bed. Experienced Alpha ENF users can increase the amount taken per serving up to 100 grams. Although, problems with high osmotic pressure and symptoms from sudden rushes of nutrients coming into the bloodstream are more common with the higher doses. Most Alpha ENF side effects can be resolved by adding more water, reducing the serving size, and increasing the frequency of servings.
