The recipes are delicious and very satisfying. My skin broke out during the first 2 weeks of the cleanse but now the glow is starting to shine through. Doing the cleanse helped me get my eating in perspective and made me realize that the body does not need a lot of food if it is nutrient packed.

If you want to look and feel better this is not another fad diet or ill-conceived ‘diet’ plan, but the start of a new way of life.

Whenever I buy a new product I frustrate myself by reading review after review and researching all the pro and cons in great detail
before I’m ready to purchase.

When I first came across Yuri, I was looking for a personal training MP3. It sounded great so I bought it. It was great. I then purchased a book and some of the other workouts. These were also fantastic, keeping me motivated whilst explaining in simply terms why certain things do what. So when I saw The Cleanse I had no hesitation in purchasing it. No need to to any research as I already feel very confident in all of his products. They all work fantastically to get you the results you want and are all easy to follow.

The cleanse itself is straight forward and very easy to follow, not a lot of guess work is required which I love, its all laid out for you, exactly what to do and when to do it.

I am not an overweight person, but I was starting to feel bloated after eating and generally tired – all of the time.
Right from about day 3 I noticed that my stomach looked much less swollen and by the end of week one I had lost 1.5 inches each from my chest, waist and hips.

The most noticeable thing for me was that the underside of my jaw had tightened and my skin looked very clear and the small red capillaries on my cheeks had reduced.

I followed this through, adding a mix of cacoa nibs and nuts if I felt I was feeling the need to stray from the path and am thrilled with the results, I have a general look of being more toned and have lost a total of 7lbs and 7 inches overall.

I have absolute faith in all of the products; being an avid researcher I cannot find anything to fault in the safety and effectiveness of each one I have used. If you want to look and feel better this is not another fad diet or ill-conceived ‘diet’ plan, but the start of a new way of life. Totally recommended. If you have any queries along the way the team is always very quick to respond, so its a winner all round.

P.s I would have liked the cleanse to contain a daily shopping list, just for extra ease and it would really help benefit those who are not always fully prepared so you can do a quick daily shop if work, kids and general life seem to be getting in the way.

Thank you for all of the help and support.

Both Paresh and I have been following The Cleanse since Jan 1st and wow…..what a difference!!!!! I feel 10 years younger, look better and have tons more energy which I really need with two kids, and a full time job.

Since starting the cleanse I have lost 10lbs bringing me back to my pre-pregnancy weight which I had gained with my daughter 10 years ago…I know I still hadn’t lost those stubborn 10lbs.

I have now!!……..Paresh has lost additional 5lbs to a total of 25lbs since he started working with you about 4 months ago.

Love the recipes….simple and delicious. The best part was how easy and fast they were to prepare. I have dinner on the table in 15-20 mins after coming home from work which is faster than when I was eating regularly.

Absolutely love the program and your daily inspirational emails which I used to share with my cousin who is also wheat free now. Our whole eating habit has changed and the whole family is now eating this way.

Thank you Yuri for teaching us how easy it can be.

I was surprised how good everything tasted…..

Eating my way through Christmas this year, I came home heavier than ever, but more importantly to me, I felt awful.  I had not really even enjoyed what I had been eating through the holidays, but I guess I kept eating, hoping my taste buds and stomach would feel happy that I ate such great foods at great restaurants.  I was looking for a new year eating plan to get the weight off, and even joined Weight Watchers online, because I have had success many times with lowering my calories, and happy that I could still eat junk.  But I got an email from Yuri, looked at the program and believed I should try the Wellness Diet instead because it kept me away from sugar, refined foods, wheat, alcohol, etc., all the things that had put weight on me, kept me craving more, and making feel crummy.

My experience with the eating plan was that I was surprised how good everything tasted; lost almost 10 pounds in about two weeks; appetite  was satisfied, cravings gone; self-satisfied that I was eating a healthy diet for aging problems (I am 57).  30 days later, it is hard for me to eat “normal” food.  I travel a lot, and I am trying to work out how to keep eating properly.  My weight loss slowed way down, and I am re-visiting that: am I drinking enough water; just because it’s good for you are you eating too much at one sitting; are you getting enough exercise in.  On the other hand, losing 10 pounds and keeping it off for a couple of weeks is good!

I guess I should encourage others re regularity.  It has always been elusive for me, and I could never figure out why for a period of time all was well, then it wasn’t.  Then it was okay, then it wasn’t.  Etc.   I am very excited to be so regular every day because my dad had colon cancer, and I want to do everything I can not to let the genes win out.  I also love the fact of the alkaline nature of the plan for that reason.

I love the food, am adding a few things back in but mainly sticking to the recipes because they are so good and I can cook them up a lot faster than I could in the beginning.  I am amazed that I enjoy this food so much, I have to say, and so very glad that I am not craving any bad stuff!

I participated in the 30 days Total Wellness Cleanse program and have learned a lot.

It was a tough first day since I love my coffee and had caffeine withdrawal headaches the first day. But once I got thru that day I started feeling better every day.

I felt myself gaining more energy and feeling lighter and more spunk to my step. I lost 6 lbs. the first week, yet did not feel like I was depriving my body of food like so many other diets do.

I loved the options of eating other foods from the plan if I didn’t feel like eating what was slated for that day.

I also loved the cooking class videos and found them very helpful in following the recipes and learning the value of the foods in the recipes.

I always loved vegetables but never really tried too many new ones outside of my comfort zone in what I was used to eating. It was an eye opening experience to try out new vegetables and learn the variety of ways to incorporate them into my diet.

I now spend most of my time in the fruit and vegetable aisle of the grocery store and feel good about buying foods that I know are good for me.

I even got my husband to try a few of the recipes and he really liked the salads and dressing I made.

I look forward to sharing my recipes and knowledge I have gained from the program with my family, friends and coworkers.

I believe that anyone who is serious about getting their body healthy will appreciate this program and get the results they desire.

Thank you for putting this program together and helping me become a healthier person inside and out.

Thanks for all you do Yuri!

I just completed the 30-day Total Wellness Cleanse and the results have exceeded my expectations.

I lost 7 pounds, and am now at a very comfortable weight that I have been struggling to reach for almost 2 years – and this time I didn’t struggle at all!  I also lost an inch around my waist and hips and close to an inch around my thighs.

But more important, I am off caffeine (from 2 cups of coffee a day), drink red wine only once a week (instead of a glass every night), and have eliminated most of my sugar/snack cravings.

And best of all, I feel like this is an eating style I can maintain forever – more and more fresh veggies, a little fruit, a bit of grains/legumes, and a bit of fish or eggs.  Most of the recipes in the program are delicious and I will continue using them.

I am also enjoying the teleclass seminars, which are informative and inspiring.  Thank you for all the education and support.  Here’s to our health!

I was diagnosed w/ Type 2 diabetes last summer.  I have been trying to lose weight since last April.  To lose weight I was doing Weight Watchers at work, exercising more, watching portion control, etc, but the weight was not coming off.  In 8 months I only lost 15 lbs. I was extremely frustrated that all the effort I put in was accomplishing me nothing.

When I saw your email about the total wellness cleanse, I thought why not, I don’t have anything to lose.  The day before I was officially starting I went to the grocery store and bought $262 worth of fruits and veggies and assorted supplements according to the shopping list, which definitely shows you how serious I was.

I did however forget one thing.  I really don’t like vegetables, I don’t care for fruits and unless it’s peanut butter, I’m not fond of nuts.  So Day 1 I lost 5 lbs- because I was starving.  I did try the recipes listed, but I was only eating about 1/4 of 1 serving.  Apples became my new best friend.  After Day 2 of starving, I talked w/ my boot camp instructor about what was happening.  She and I both agreed, I needed meat.  I added meat back in and finished up the first week at -9 lbs.  Week 2 I backslid a little. I was eating some carbs here and there and wasn’t as diligent about eating my vegetables or my fruits.  Only -1 lb second week.  Now I’m starting week 3.  I have re-aligned myself with my purpose – to feel better, look better and have more energy.  I will be having at least 1 recipe from the included recipe book a day.  I will not eat any carbs or sugar.  It’s very hard.  Carbs are everywhere and I really love sugar.  Desserts are my weakness.  But I am confident I can do this.  I will admit that seeing the results at just a week of eating right are very motivating.  My challenge is to constantly tell myself that the dessert doesn’t taste as good as being healthy (and much thinner) feels.

My blood sugars were higher than they should be until week 1 of the cleanse.  That week they dropped to normal levels.  I like how my body is changing for the better.  I can do this….

Your Total Wellness program feels like a life-saving answer to Prayer…..

Thank you for the incredible wisdom of your program. I have finally learned from it how to cleanse WITH food instead of believing I have to do a juice fast to accomplish it. While I do still believe in the benefits of juice fasting, I had never been able to reconcile doing so as a continual and permanent lifelong lifestyle change. Your program is entirely sustainable for a lifetime.

What I have experienced is an increase in my overall sense of well-being, personal power and confidence. My fitness level went up faster than at any other time I can recall. I have more energy. I have lost fat and gained muscle tone.

And my SKIN! It was the first thing I noticed changing about four days into the cleanse. I just turned 51, so this is a big deal to me. I just happened to touch my face that morning, and I couldn’t believe how soft and smooth it was. I found it necessary to have everyone in my family touch it. They all agreed it felt amazing. And if that wasn’t enough…just last night when I was out shopping for more greens, a young man came up and quite brazenly flirted with me (boy, did I ever blush). He seemed not to care or maybe didn’t realize that I am old enough to be his mother.  It was hilarious and wonderfully flattering.

As for eating, I literally crave the fantastic recipes you offer above the heavier, less healthy fare to which I have previously felt helpless to resist. Now, I usually just don’t want it. Instead I want Green Revolution and don’t go a day without craving Rawsagna. I have even shared the food I have made with some of my friends who aren’t actively cleansing and have had them ask for the recipes or, better, could I please just make them some more…a whole pot, please…that includes my Husband and our 10 year old daughter and three teenaged sons. My Family have tried almost everything I have made and liked it, which is HUGE for me. I have worried about how to make sure they are getting enough healthy foods and about what kind of example I am setting by the way they see me eat as well as what I prepare for them.

Yuri, your Total Wellness program feels like a life-saving answer to Prayer.

You must be thinking…boy, ask Connie one simple question…lol. I didn’t realize I had so much to say either. Still, I hope it helps and that you can tell I am truly grateful to you. Thank you.

Signing up for the Total Wellness Cleanse was exactly what I needed to get on the right track…..

I was motivated by a recent Celiac diagnosis, nagging skin rash and chronic Migraines to do an elimination diet.  The program provided all the recipes, health information and coaching information to make the program a breeze.  The recipes were quick, tasty, filling & easy to make.  Within a couple days I was feeling better and more energetic than I had in years.  A huge thank you the Total Wellness team for a wonderful product. Well worth the money.

- Charmaine

I can’t hardly express my happiness with my experience with the cleanse…..

First of all, it was so easy to use and informative.  The email support from Yuri and fellow Facebook members was incredible.   I must admit that I didn’t think I would be able to do it since most of the food on the cleanse diet were foreign to me.  I was not a big fan of eating raw or especially drinking green juices.  I found it amazing that once I started so many of these new foods I began to enjoy and in fact crave more than the foods I would normally eat.  Also, the preparation time was so much shorter and easier that preparing my normal meals.  The cooking class videos were amazing.  I got a kick out of seeing Yuri prepare each dish and was happy to see him adjust each recipe to the ingredients he had on hand.  As to my results I couldn’t be happier.  My energy has sky rocketed, my mood is positive and happy and I have been able to sleep so soundly.  Where has all the stress gone?   By combining the cleanse with Fitter U I have lost over 20 pounds, gone is my belly fat and inches have disappeared off almost every part of my body.  I feel absolutely great and I am so grateful for having found Total Wellness and Yuri.  If anyone is looking for the fountain of youth look no further than Total Wellness.  I am 64 years old and feel like 35!

- Maggie

I stopped having cravings—especially my Starbuck’s coffee addiction! I have been a vegetarian for more than 20 years but this was sooooo different. Eating raw food for the first time, ALL the time changed my thinking about food. I lost some weight and I felt healthier in a way that is difficult for me to describe.

- Edith

I cannot thank you enough for the Total Wellness Cleanse, it has changed my life and health for the better!

Since I’ve went through and competed the total wellness cleanse I’ve felt a tremendous change in my cravings for sugary foods.  I no longer crave sweets and/or treats.  I feel lighter but more energetic which helps me enjoy playing longer with my newborn twin daughters.  I poop twice a day and are a nice walnut colour that submerge nicely into the bowl.  The 2 biggest changes of all are that I have stopped drinking coffee and I no longer crave it.  I’ve been a coffee drinker for the last 20 years averaging 2 a day and no longer drink it.  The other big change is that my cholesterol level has gone down tremendously from being moderately high to a normal level cholesterol level without taking any medications. Yuri I cannot thank you enough for the total wellness cleanse, it has changed my life and health for the better!

- Jimmy

The Total Wellness Cleanse and Fitter U programs are a GREAT total package…..

While I thought I ate very healthy before starting this cleanse, I feel all the more balanced and energetic having added even more fresh greens to my daily regimen.  I’m juicing and eating fresh vegetables that I had never tried before.  If I don’t have my greens, my meals aren’t complete.  While I will ALWAYS be an omnivore, I am eating less meat and don’t miss it.  Thanks

- Denise

Before I met Yuri I was lost. I was so desperate to lose weight I tried almost everything. I tried sauna belts, pills, lotions, exercise, etc. I never realized that my problems with weight loss were directly related to my diet. I believed that if I worked out hard then I had a right to eat what I wanted, hence why I never saw improvement or long-lasting results. Then I met Yuri, and he transformed my life. First I tried his Total Wellness Cleanse, which was amazing! After the cleanse was over, I felt great. I had energy, I lost weight, but most importantly I had changed my lifestyle to fit my health goals. I also got my hands on Yuri’s  Eating for Energy and Amazing Abs Solutions. Both have been incredibly instrumental in continuing my journey to better health and fitness. All in all, I’m in better health and shape now than when I was younger. I went from 130 lbs. to 114 in less than 7 months. I was at 23% body fat and now I am at 16%. I am incredibly proud of my accomplishments and I am so thankful that I found Yuri. I would not have been able to do this without him.  Thank you Yuri!!!!

Best Regards,

Blanca

By doing the cleanse it has made me more conscious of my health and so much more aware of what I put into my body and onto my skin.

I really enjoyed participating in the Total Wellness Cleanse… It was a total reboot for my mind, body, and spirit!  The hardest part was the first couple of days, but once I got past the first week it was much easier, and now I can’t believe that it is over and how fast the last 30 days seemed to go by.  I am a registered nurse/massage therapist and I learned so much more about nutrition and health.  I lost 14 lbs.  and noticed an improvement in my overall energy level, mood, and sleep. Overall I just feel better!  By doing the cleanse it has made me more conscious of my health and so much more aware of what I put into my body and onto my skin.  Now I want to incorporate more raw foods into my diet and I plan to use the information that Yuri provided to move into a healthier lifestyle. I would highly recommend the program! Thanks  for introducing me to this information, Yuri.  I plan to continue on with this!

Bonnie

Wow!  That’s my response to the Total Wellness Cleanse.  I expected to feel a little better without all that sugar in my life, but I feel terrific.  I wake up in the morning, before the alarm, revitalized and ready to face the day and I have enough energy to last until bedtime without dragging.  I feel fabulous!  I don’t have to resist “bad” foods because my body is so happy to be eating good foods that I have no desire for the chips and sugary treats I used to eat.  I have lost 10 pounds in 30 days and hope to lose the other 20 I gained when I quit smoking 6 years ago.  I am so excited to have the Total Wellness Cleanse as part of my arsenal in my quest for healthy living.  The recipes are delicious and foods that I would choose to eat because they are so tasty, not just because they are on my diet!  Thanks for all your awesome work!  I love the workouts, Eating for Energy, and now the Total Wellness Cleanse!

I now have the knowledge I needed to make the right choice for my health!

Total Cleanse is an amazing info package that gives tools to perfect health. For me it was an eye opener and taught me not only how to eat right, but also explained the reasons and simple logic behind illnesses, weight gain and dis-ease. I lost 9 kgs in 11 days. The pain in my joints disappeared and my yoga practice improved to another level. I could really feel my body opening and being freed from toxins. But most importantly I now have the knowledge I needed to make the right choice for my health. So many people have no idea how to eat healthy, how to combine food and why we REALLY need to eat the greens. It’s so simple in the end. I can warmly recommend this program to anyone – it is the super high way to a better, healthy life.

Pia R

I am doing very well on the program and have lost a total of 12 pounds in 3 1/2 weeks.  This is very encouraging and I look forward to continuing on the program as my goal is to lose another 12.  I’m noticing changes in my clothing and attitude toward food.  Thank you for your help!

The Total Wellness Cleanse lifestyle change just made sense for me…..

The Total Wellness Cleanse lifestyle change just made sense for me because already being a vegetarian it was an easy transition.  I have done juice fasting for weeks on end but the weight always came back. Also I have been to a dietitian but that was no help either. This is sustainable having menus as a guide line.  It seems that the world obesity epidemic is mainly due to sugar and flour (we did used to use flour and water to make glue at school, so what’s that doing to the intestines?) and I now fit my 30″ waist jeans again. Being 52 years old it is a challenge to stay trim, but by eating the right foods my weight is under control. It just makes sense.

Julian

I was already feeling much better, lighter somehow, and with lots more energy!

I ate a fairly healthy diet and exercised regularly but decided to do the cleanse to kick start my metabolism and increase my energy levels, as I had been feeling very tired and run down before Christmas.  I found the first few days of The Cleanse a bit of a challenge but by the 4th day I was already feeling much better, lighter somehow, and with lots more energy. I have continued to have more energy and although I did not have a lot of weight to lose my body has remodeled its shape! I did lose about 3 kgs and lost about 2 cm’s on my waist and hips and my skin was so much better.  I feel I have learnt a lot about good nutrition and will certainly continue to eat far more vegetables. I was a bit worried that no meat would leave me feeling tired but I now feel I have more energy than before.  Thank you; it has been a great experience and worthwhile education

Chris

There is no reason to think about all those commercials and advertisements you see for  special detox formulas, weight loss pills and other gimmicks which promise to make you healthier. If you really want to feel and look great and do it the right way, all you really need is a diet based on whole foods.  Only by removing toxic, processed foods from your diet and bringing in healthy fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, non-glutinous grains, and lean meats, can you really get the results you are looking for.

Because, like everyone, you are looking for a permanent change. You want to get well, have more energy, and feel good everyday. You know this is the key to enjoying life, and you are ready to make it happen. So don’t bother with weight loss and cleansing fads, change your habits, change your lifestyle, and change the way you think about food. You can do it, and the Total Wellness cleanse is the only real way!

I know that might sound a bit strange, but don’t doubt it. The cleanse I am offering you is better than the master cleanse, better than the lemon cleanse, better than any program around. The reason? I teach you how to heal and clear your body with food, not with starvation, fasting or any other shortcuts. I have discovered that the secret to getting well is to get your medicine from what you eat.

Unfortunately, most people are not helping themselves by eating well. Instead, they are slowly ingesting  lethal and debilitating poisons in the form of refined sugar, trans fats, preservatives, pesticides, herbicides and chemical additives, like color and flavor. It has to stop.

My cleanse is a holistic approach to the body and to diet, which says that the body is a system. This system needs to be fueled and maintained, and the way we do that is through ingesting water, vitamins, and other nutrients necessary for the body to carry out daily functions. This means, when we take in the right foods, our bodies work the right way, and we don’t become chronically exhausted, overweight, or ill.

Change your life with a natural cleanse and detox!

There is one ingredient in ninety percent of processed food that can be traced to many problems. Do you know what it is? Think about it. Americans on average consume three times the recommended amount of this substance, and it is used to sell everything from ketchup to crackers. The ingredient is refined sugar. It is deadly, it is addictive, and it can be found everywhere.

Over use of sugar is responsible for many ailments, including obesity, heart disease, arthritis, tooth decay, and type II diabetes. Why then, is it so ubiquitous in the standard American diet, and how can you start to avoid it?

Well, the reason should be clear enough, sugar tastes great! It tempts our natural instinct to look for something sweet in  In fact, sugar is a natural food that can be found in fruits and other plants. The problem is how we eat it.

In nature, sugar comes in a fibrous package. This means we process it more quickly, before our pancreas has to deal with an unfair share of it. In modern times, however, sugar does not come with natural fiber and other essential nutrients. Instead, it is added to fiber-less, preservative-laden refined foods in order to make them palatable and sellable.  If you are eating a processed diet, you are taking in way too much sweet and setting yourself up for a number of preventable ailments.

The answer is not to avoid sweet foods altogether, though. Even if you did, as long as you are eating a processed diet, you are getting fragmented foods. The answer is to start eating whole foods, like fruits and vegetables. These are foods which don’t need extra refining. They come intact, and that means they contain a lot more nutritional benefits, and no extra or fake ingredients. Even if they do have sugars, your body will be able to handle them a lot better when you get water, fiber, and enzymes at the same time.

A natural cleanse and detox will teach you to eat right all the time!

The true way to get over your cravings for toxic foods and start making the right dietary decisions is simply to stop putting toxic foods into your body. It really is that simple. Then, what you eat instead will consist of a complex balance of nutrients. This means your body will heal itself using energy it gets from clean, healthy foods.

Your body will begin to push out years of stored toxins, and, since extra fat is no longer needed to seal those toxins out of the blood stream, your body will finally begin to shed fat and you will begin to look trimmer and leaner. Plus, your immune system and energy levels will soar. When you get the right kind of nutrition, manage how much you eat, and learn to think of food as medicine, you gain a whole new approach to living and eating.

Suddenly, what you eat is not about something tasting great, or about being bored, or about a special craving. You eat because you are hungry, and you learn that food is energy and life. Then, you are able to carefully choose just what goes into your body and to care where food comes from, how it is grown, and even what processes it underwent on the way to you. This is a whole new way of thinking and it will lead to a new way of acting.

Each time you reach for a bite to eat, you are making a choice. You can choose the same old sweet, processed food that is already making you sick and/or overweight, or you can choose life and healing with a whole food. Since you are reading this, I have to assume you are ready to make a change. Go for it! Let a natural cleanse and detox plan get you started today!
