Frequently Asked Questons Regarding The Tri-Decathlon

 

1.  Can I eat any other foods during the Tri-Decathlon?

 

To achieve the best possible results, we recommend eating only the foods that come in your Tri-Decathlon.  We also understand that this may be a bit challenging for some people. You can certainly add any of the soups or farinas to give you some added variety.  If you feel that you need to add other foods, it is fine to do so if you make healthy choices.  Raw, organic whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, and berries can help to keep you satisfied and well nourished during the 13 days.  Salads are great, as long as you make your own salad dressing using virgin olive oil, vinegar and spices.   The goal is follow the program as closely as you can without eating any type of processed food.  If you follow these guidelines you can enjoy other whole foods, during the 13 days, and still get excellent results.

 

 

2.  Can I drink anything besides water during the Tri-Decathlon?

 

To achieve the best possible results, we recommend drinking only water with Stardust 2 Hydr8 during the Tri-Decathlon.  We also understand that this may be a bit challenging for some people. If you feel that you need to add other drinks, it is fine to do so if you make healthy choices.  If you have a juicing machine, you can certainly juice any type of organic fruits or vegetables.  Organic herbal teas can take the place of coffee in the morning. If you are unable to function without your coffee, try to limit yourself to one cup per day and use organic honey instead of sugar or artificial sweeteners.  If you follow these guidelines you can enjoy other drinks foods, during the 13 days, and still get excellent results.  It is very important, however, that you drink at least 8 glasses of your Stardust 2 Hydr8 and water per day in addition to any other drinks that you choose to consume.

 

3. What type of detox effects should I expect?

 

Depending on your levels of toxicity, and how your body reacts to detoxification, there is a wide range of effects that are possible.  Some people experience only very mild effects such as a general feeling of “sluggishness”.  Others may experience effects that are a bit more prevalent such as an occasional headache and lack of energy.  People who have very high levels of toxicity in their bodies may experience something similar to a moderate “hang over”.  During this time, you can take solace in the fact that dangerous toxins are being flushed from your body.  Detox symptoms generally begin to subside around day 3 or day 4.  Drinking extra water, taking a short nap, or taking a walk can help. Soaking in a luxurious bath with Posh Spahhh can also be very soothing and reinvigorating.  Try these different approaches and see which ones work best for you.  By day 5, you’ll be very glad that you did.

 

4.  Are there any special handling instructions for the foods?

 

All of the foods in your Tri-Decathlon are designed to be stored at room temperature. These foods do not require refrigeration, and we recommend that they not be refrigerated.  Storing them in a cool, dry, and dark location is ideal.  The shelf life of these foods is approximately 9 months provided they are kept in some type of air tight container. 

 

 

5.  Can I order the different foods individually?

 

Yes.  All of the foods that come with the Tri-Decathlon, and many others, are available 24 hours a day on your Wholefood Farmacy website. 

 

 

6.  Can diabetics do the Tri-Decathlon?

 

If you have a particular medical condition, we recommend that you consult your health care professional for guidance and advice. We have received feedback from diabetics who have eaten these foods. Typically, they report that their sugar levels spiked during the first three days, or so, and that when they reached days four or five, that their sugar levels had stabilized. In some cases their doctors stopped their medications. As always, we strongly recommend that anyone with specific medical concerns consult their doctor prior to any changes in diet, medication, or lifestyle.

 

7.  Can children do the Tri-Decathlon?

 

Yes.  Doing the Tri-Decathlon involves eating whole foods, drinking water, and walking. We do believe that it is quite safe for children to eat whole foods, to drink water, and to walk. 

 

8.  What do I do after the 13 days?

 

This depends largely on your health related goals.  If you need to lose a substantial amount of weight we encourage you to continue with another Tri-Decathlon, or to consider doing a Liquithon.  The longest period of staying on the Tri-Decathlon, which we know of, is 9 months - producing weight loss in excess of 300 lbs. 

 

If you have less weight to lose, you may want to consider replacing one or two meals per day using Wholefood Farmacy foods and then making healthier choices for your other meals.

 

If you’re already at your ideal weight, you will certainly thrive with your new found cravings for whole foods and water.  You can keep your favorite Wholefood Farmacy products on hand as convenient healthy snacks.  You can take care to avoid processed food and drink to the degree possible. Last but not least, you can do the Tri-Decathlon 4 times per year to keep your body clean and operating at it’s peak potential.
