Daily exposure to toxins, including pollutants and diets high in processed foods and lack of exercise can ultimately disrupt the body’s endocrine, immune, nervous, muscular and reproductive systems. To help patients purify their body, Dr. Bouffard offers a 21-day purification program, developed by whole food supplement manufacturer Standard Process Inc. The program uses whole, organic and unprocessed food, along with whole food supplements to help cleanse the body. Baudo, a certified personal trainer, will teach you exercises that improve muscle tone, balance and flexibility.

Although the body rids itself of toxins naturally, eventually it can become overburdened. Purification, also known as detoxification, can help remove toxins. The Standard Process 21-Day Purification Program along with a structured exercise program is designed to lighten the toxic load, improve digestion and help maintain a healthy weight.
