Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 7 - www.socalcleanse.com Now that you know we‟re not a couple of loonies (of course, I suppose that‟s all in the eyes of the beholder! And, we do tend to get a bit silly sometimes!), let‟s get on with the report! A Few Quick Facts About Toxins We feel that before you try to cleanse yourself of “toxins”, it would be great for you to know exactly how they can affect your body and why “detoxing” is so important! The world has become a toxic place and that’s had a devastating impact on our bodies and health. From industry to the products we use on a daily routine basis, toxins have saturated our lives. According to a 2002 Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) study, at least two-thirds of Americans live in areas where toxic chemicals in the air raise the risk of cancer. Here are some other interesting findings: In 1901, cancer was rare: 1 out of 8,000 people got cancer. Since the Industrial Revolution, the cancer rate today has risen to 1 in 2. [Source: The American Cancer Society] © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 8 - www.socalcleanse.com But wait… there’s more! The Consumer Product Safety Commission connects 150 chemicals commonly found in our homes to allergies, birth defects, cancer and psychological disorders. The Environmental Working Group (EWG), a nonprofit organization, analyzed the toxic “body burden” of Americans. The researchers tested for 525 toxins and found 455 different toxins in their research subjects. On average, participants’ bodies contained 60 toxins that could be detrimental to the stomach or intestines, 57 that could affect the health of the reproductive system, and 52 that could affect the brain and nervous system. We don’t tell you these things to scare you, only to make you aware of what the situation in our world is like and why cleansing and detoxifying your body – in the right way – is so very important. With this in mind let’s take a closer look at the 3 biggest mistakes people make when detoxing and how to avoid them. We will touch on the misinformation that flows so readily through the detoxing community and give you the right information so you can make more informed decisions and be more aware of some of the most common pitfalls. © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 9 - www.socalcleanse.com Mistake #1: Depriving Your Body Instead of Nourishing It While Detoxing! There’s a word that’s been attached to detox programs for thousands of years, and it can be a very bad word: fasting. Fasting and other caloric restriction programs has been used within religions to create a “spiritual awakening”, in some cultures for healing, and in our own backyard in Hollywood as part of crash diets. However, the disadvantages and health risks of fasting far outweigh the benefits and could even be very dangerous if not done correctly and under close supervision of a medical or nutrition professional. When you go the extreme with restricting calories and essential nutrients from your body it shouldn’t take a scientist to tell us that’s a bad thing! Unfortunately many of the side-effects that people think of when they hear the word “detox” comes from this type of deprivation. Headaches, irritability, nausea, low energy, muscle and joint aches an acute emotional distress are all side effects of depriving your body. Your also putting your immune system at risk without it © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 10 - www.socalcleanse.com receiving the proper vitamins and minerals to function properly. Not to mention, if you diabetic, you‟re putting yourself at risk of stroke and heart failure by playing with your blood sugar levels so dangerously. There are also areas of your body that ONLY run on blood glucose, which need to be replenished through healthy eating. Your bran, nervous system and eyes, all get fed by blood glucose. So, if you restrict or cut out completely carbohydrates then your mind can feel foggy and your vision can get blurry. So, just why do people do this to themselves? We asked ourselves the same question while creating SoCal Cleanse®. There are generally two reasons given to try to support fasting. First, you’re supposedly giving you digestive system a break and second you’re supposedly releasing toxins. While there might be a hair of truth in both of those you‟re also setting up your digestive system for further stress and any toxins that are released are released too quickly and with no real exit strategy, which leads the toxins right back to where they started from! © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 11 - www.socalcleanse.com Now, doesn’t it make sense that if you’re trying to heal your body you need high quality nutrients saturating your body? Think about exercise. After resistance training or a long bike ride your muscles can become sore, this is partly due to the fact that they have been damaged, micro-tears in your muscle. In order to heal that muscle you need the proper nutrition the right balance of protein and carbohydrates, etc. When your depriving your body of the essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that your body needs in order to perform the millions of tasks it performs on a daily basis you’re actually hampering its own abilities to detoxify and heal! Your cells and tissues need to be fed, not starved! Without other elements of proper nutrition, like fiber, and other vitamins and nutrients, your digestive system will slow to a crawl and even become further clogged, trapping any toxins that might have wanted out. Isn’t this just the opposite of what you were hoping to do? © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 12 - www.socalcleanse.com Digestive health is an absolute key part of detoxing! It needs to be running in tip-top shape in order to move and eliminate and toxins that have been stirred up in your system. With fiber deprivation you’re body will not eliminate toxins and instead try to unsuccessfully process them again and once again store them in your body. It‟s true that your digestive health and function can be compromised by the wrong types of foods. In fact, you might eat foods that you have mistakenly believed were good for you only to damage your intestinal function even worse. That’s why we helped take the guess work out! The line of SoCal Cleanse products were designed to give you the nutrients you need to support healthy digestive and body functions while at the same time detoxify and eliminate toxins the healthy way! Remember, don’t deprive your body, nourish it for optimal detoxifying affects! © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 13 - www.socalcleanse.com Mistake #2: Detoxing Too Quickly! You’ve probably seen the ads. They populate late-night television, flashy magazines and billboards. They sell a “weekend detox”, a “7 day detox”, a “two week cleanse”. They promise quick results and lots of promises for a bargain basement prices. You‟d be better off taking a match to your money, or eating it - that could be better for you than some of these products out to make a quick buck and compromise your health at the same time. We‟re sorry but this sort of thing drives us crazy! You’ve spent a lifetime being exposed to toxic environments. Years upon years of toxins getting lodged into your body and now you’re supposed to detox and rid yourself of these toxins in a weekend? Please! Not only is that wishful thinking but it’s also dangerous thinking, let us tell you why. Here’s a scary study done by our friends at the Environmental Working Group; they studied umbilical cord blood of a group of newborn babies. They tested for 413 chemicals/toxins. The laboratory found 287 of these. Of these 287 chemicals, 180 of them can cause cancer in humans and animals, 217 are known to be dangerous to the nervous system and brain, and 208 can cause birth defects in animals. © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 14 - www.socalcleanse.com Babies are being born with toxins already in their system, already at a disadvantage. So, when we say you’ve spent a lifetime building up toxins we mean it! Detoxing and cleansing programs that are short term can be ineffective for multiple reasons. First, detoxing really needs to be a lifestyle. And second, they can release large numbers of toxins that flood into your blood stream which can cause extra stress on your body, skin problems like acne, and worst of all you could experience negative affects just to have the toxins get stored right back from where they came from because the body can’t release and eliminate them fast enough! Your lifestyle has everything to do with how successful your detox and cleanse program will be. Study after study has proven that creating a real change requires healthy habits. While we may know what our bad habits/vices are we also know how hard it can be to break them. It‟s also hard to form new habits. It requires work and attention until it becomes a regular part of our lives. But, it can be done! © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 15 - www.socalcleanse.com Do you know what happens to people who try to undergo a quick detox? They experience all the negative side effects mentioned above (think headaches, nausea, digestive problems, and a nice case of the grumpies!), think they might have done something good for the short period of time and then, you guessed it, go right back to their old unhealthy habits with no changes to their lifestyle. Without creating a change in your lifestyle - lasting new habits - you will remain toxic and unhealthy! Quick Detox Programs Can Make You Fat! If weight loss is a goal of yours then this is key for you too. Your body stores many toxins and synthetic chemicals in your body fat. If you subscribe to Detox Your Life, our online magazine then you‟ve heard us speak to this before. (And if you don‟t, what are you waiting for?

Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 16 - www.socalcleanse.com You see… Most toxins are foreign to your body, it has no idea how to process them. It can’t digest them, it can’t use them for nutrients so many of them get kicked back to the safest place your body knows to store them, FAT! Your body recognizes fat as a very stable place to keep those toxins. Because of this, your body doesn‟t want to let go of that fat. This is called Weight Loss Resistance Disorder™. It‟s very real and it‟s causing thousands of people around the world to be heavy and unhealthy. If you do a short term detox then you‟re not eliminating these toxins which means it‟s going to be harder for you to convince your body to let go of that fat. If you‟ve truly tried everything and can‟t lose the weight, you might be suffering from Weight Loss Resistance Disorder™. Small changes, like incorporating a detoxifying herbal supplement into your everyday life, or switching soaps to an organic detoxifying one will help create lifestyle changes which in turn will help you lead a cleaner, toxin-free, life. Which leads us to our next Biggest Mistake. © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 17 - www.socalcleanse.com Mistake #3: Not Taking a Holistic Approach to Detoxing! You’ve just read that your lifestyle is a crucial element for your detoxifying and cleansing ability. While SoCal Cleanse products will get you on your healthy detox path it‟s important to know that these products are just one part of what you can be doing to detox your body, mind, and life. There are changes, easy changes, that you can make today that will help. While we‟ll explain many of these here, please remember that you don‟t have to take all of these changes on at once. Small changes lead to new habits and new habits lead to long-term lifestyle changes! Detoxing your mind can have powerful affects on your body. As we should all know by now, stress has list of its own of all the negative impacts in can have on our bodies. Stress can release toxic hormones and chemicals can be just as toxic to your body. Of course stress can have many causes but it‟s important to set some time aside to really analyze your life and examine where and when stress enters it. © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 18 - www.socalcleanse.com It can be work related (anyone out there see the movie “Office Space”?) or it can come from toxic relationships. The fact is, stress can come from every direction but it‟s how you deal with it that counts. Detoxing your mind is key to your overall health. Changing the way you think and feel about yourself is a huge step to getting on the right track to overall health. Ever have one of those days where everything goes wrong, your clothes feel tight, your hair wouldn’t do a thing, your makeup is wearing off and it’s not even noon yet! If you‟re like most people, you‟ll want to run home, curl up on the couch with your cat, and eat a pint of Häagen-Dazs ice cream. (Come on… you know you‟ve done it!) As tempting as this is… you HAVE to make a CONSCIOUS DECISION to love yourself and treat yourself better! © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 19 - www.socalcleanse.com This change can only happen within. It might take time but when it happens, your life will change! Getting rid of toxic thoughts will change every second of every single day for you. You‟ll feel happier in your own skin, more upbeat, and things will just magically start to go your way. AND, on those occasions when they don‟t, you‟ll know – and want – something other than that pint of Häagen-Dazs. Here are some wonderful ways to help detoxify and clear your mind: Meet with a life coach Speak with a therapist Meditate (guided meditations, a class, or quietly on your own are all great options) Take a yoga class (trust me, “stuff” comes up in yoga!) Take a break from TV, the Internet, and those gossip mags and spend time at the beach or taking a long walk in nature to reconnect Write in a journal These things may sound simple but they are SO powerful! © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 20 - www.socalcleanse.com Moving on… We love pizza and no matter what anyone says, there are some killer pizza places in Los Angeles. So, yes, of course we eat pizza, we‟re only human! But we‟ve also made some key dietary and lifestyle changes, over time, that has helped us eliminate the majority of toxins from our bodies and our lives. Allow us to share just a few of these changes with you because we know they will help. USDA certified organic food. Much like our certified organic products, organic certified food is truly a better option for you than non-organic. Sure there have been the usual two-sides of the fence studies about how different the nutritional content may be. We, of course land on the side of the fence that say, yes, organic foods do contain more nutrients but let‟s put that aside for right now. The bigger deal is the pesticides, herbicides and other toxic chemicals used to grow non-organic foods. Have you ever seen some of these farmers spraying their crops in full hazmat gear? We have and it‟s scary! © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 21 - www.socalcleanse.com They know the chemicals they’re spraying are incredibly dangerous. Many of the chemicals end up in our bodies. Some fruits and vegetables for example can absorb the chemicals through their skin while others bond permanently to the skin. Remember these chemicals were meant to kill living organisms! Think about it… if they kill bugs, what do you think they’re doing to your body?!! Do you remember DDT? A pesticide banned in the United States in the 1970‟s because of all of the dangers linked to it? Well, it hasn‟t been banned in other countries! Do you know where we get many of the fruits and veggies that become out of season - other countries that still use it! Buying organic might be slightly more expensive for some items but this is your health we‟re talking here, don’t you think it’s worth it? Move it! Another great way to eliminate toxins is to incorporate some sort of exercise movement routine in your lifestyle. Yoga is particularly beneficial in working the body and organs in different positions that help move toxins out. Any sort of exercise, cardiovascular or resistance training is imperative for a full detox and cleanse program. © Copyright 2009-2011.

Because we see so many mistakes people make when cleansing, we feel passionate about educating people on how to make better choices. Because of this… We’re Redefining “Detox” There‟s a stigma when people hear “detox” or “cleansing”. They typically think of fasting, starvation, unpleasant side effects, and an overall unhealthy thing to do to your body. The truth is, when it comes to those specific things, we couldn‟t agree more! That‟s why we decided to take a stand and create a company with products that allow you to cleanse and detox your body in a healthy and safe way. Most people don‟t realize that you need more nutrients when you detox, not fewer. By following the traditional idea of detoxing, you often end up doing more harm than good. Given what we knew we saw an extraordinary opportunity to create real change. © Copyright 2009-2011. Ripped Tide Nutrition, Inc. - 23 - www.socalcleanse.com In order for us to create the change we desired we had to pick apart the conventions one by one to find the solutions.

We define detoxing as: “lifestyle changes that reduce the exposure of toxins while nourishing the body to improve digestion and elimination.” But don’t just take our word for it… here’s what one of our recent customers said: “SoCal Cleanse really is the easiest program, being able to eat real food that is clean and nutritious and delicious is the best way to go. After the initial 4 weeks you are still eating the same foods and are not reliant on prepackaged foods that cost tons of money to maintain your weight loss.” -- Shannon Moore, Los Angeles, CA © Copyright 2009-2011.
