Why a 21-Day Cleanse? The Science of Renewal

The choice of a 21-day period is not arbitrary. It is based on principles of behavioral psychology and cell biology. This is the average time required for a new action to become a habit, for the brain to create new neural pathways. Physiologically, many cells in our body, particularly those of the intestinal wall, have a renewal cycle that follows this timeframe. By adopting healthy practices for three consecutive weeks, you are not simply "cleansing" your body; you are training it, repairing it, and preparing it for optimal long-term function. We speak of "purification" rather than "detox" because the goal is not to subject the body to extreme measures, but to support and amplify its natural processes of elimination and regeneration.

Shilajit: The Catalyst for Your Purification Treatment

At the heart of this protocol is Shilajit, and more specifically PURVAL Shilajit Resin 30g . This ancient substance, harvested in the high mountains of the Himalayas, is a concentrate of bioavailable nutrients that acts like a true conductor for the well-being of the body.

What is Shilajit PURVAL?

Shilajit is an organo-mineral resin, resulting from the slow decomposition of plant matter over thousands of years. Its richness lies in its unique composition, notably its fulvic acid content and over 84 minerals and trace elements in ionic form, making them perfectly assimilable by our cells.

Key Benefits of Shilajit for Natural Purification

• Improved Nutrient Absorption: Fulvic acid acts as a carrier, helping cells absorb essential minerals and nutrients from your diet while facilitating the elimination of waste.
• Detoxification Support: Fulvic acid has the ability to bind to toxins and heavy metals, helping the body eliminate them more effectively through its natural pathways.
• Cellular Energy Production: Shilajit supports mitochondrial function, the "powerhouses" of our cells. The result: more energy and vitality every day, without the spikes and crashes associated with stimulants.
• Deep Remineralization: By providing a full spectrum of minerals, Shilajit helps to fill deficiencies and restore electrolyte balance, essential for the proper functioning of all bodily systems.

Protocol Preparation: The Essential Zero Week

Proper preparation is key to success. Before even starting day 1, dedicate a few days to preparing your body, mind, and environment. This "zero week" maximizes the benefits of the protocol and facilitates the transition.

Step 1: Assessing Your Starting Point

Take a notebook and honestly note down where you are in your life. Rate your energy level, sleep quality, digestion (bloating, bowel movements), mental clarity, and mood on a scale of 1 to 10. This assessment will serve as a baseline to measure your progress.

Step 2: Clean Your Food Environment

Sort through your cupboards and refrigerator. Gradually reduce or eliminate:

• Refined sugars and ultra-processed foods.
• Alcohol and sodas.
• Excess caffeine (switch to one cup a day, then to green tea).
• Trans fats and poor quality oils.

Step 3: Equip yourself for Success

Make sure you have everything you need. Stock up on fresh vegetables, fruit, good sources of protein, and healthy fats. And of course, order your 30g PURVAL Shilajit Resin to be ready to start your 21-day journey.

The 21-Day Protocol, Week by Week

Here is the detailed itinerary for your purification treatment. Listening to your body is essential; adjust the recommendations as needed.

Week 1: Activation (Days 1-7)

Objective: To gently acclimate your body to Shilajit and new eating habits, while initiating the purification process.

• Shilajit dosage: Start with a small dose, the size of a grain of rice (approximately 100-200mg), once a day. Dissolve it in a glass of lukewarm (not boiling) water and drink it on an empty stomach in the morning.
• Diet: Focus on whole, unprocessed foods. Drink at least 2 liters of pure water per day. Eliminate alcohol completely and limit coffee to one cup in the morning if necessary.
• Lifestyle: Incorporate 30 minutes of walking daily. Gentle movement helps stimulate the lymphatic system, which is essential for eliminating toxins.

"The secret of change is to focus all your energy not on fighting the past, but on building the future." - Socrates

Week 2: The Deep Purification (Days 8-14)

Objective: To intensify the process. Your body is now accustomed and ready to work more deeply.

• Shilajit Dosage: If you feel well, you can gradually increase the dose to the size of a pea (approximately 300-500mg) in the morning. Some people choose to add a second small dose (a grain of rice) in the early afternoon to support energy.
• Diet: Increase your consumption of leafy green vegetables (spinach, kale, arugula) for their high chlorophyll content. Incorporate soups and broths to gently hydrate and nourish.
• Lifestyle: Now is the time to introduce stress management practices such as meditation (5-10 minutes a day) or deep breathing exercises. Stress is a major source of internal toxicity. For more inspiration, visit our lifestyle blog .

Week 3: Integration and Vitality (Days 15-21)

Objective: To consolidate the gains, fully experience the benefits, and prepare for the post-protocol phase. You should begin to feel lighter, more energetic, and clearer.

• Shilajit dosage: Maintain the dosage that works best for you; the week 2 dosage is generally ideal for most people.
• Diet: Continue with a clean diet. You can start noting which foods give you energy and which make you feel sluggish. This is a phase of listening and learning.
• Lifestyle: Prioritize sleep. Try to go to bed and wake up at regular times. Quality sleep is the cornerstone of cellular regeneration.

The 3 major benefits to observe during this last week:

1. Increased mental clarity: A feeling of "fog" that dissipates.
2. Stable energy: Fewer mid-day energy slumps.
3. Soothed digestion: Reduced bloating and more regular bowel movements.

Beyond 21 Days: Maintaining Lasting Vitality

Congratulations! You have completed the protocol. But the journey doesn't end here. The goal is to integrate these healthy habits into your daily life. You can continue to take a maintenance dose of Shilajit (the size of a grain of rice to a small pea) daily or as a 5-day course every week. Continue to prioritize a raw food diet and listen to your body's signals. To learn more, explore our main blog for a wealth of information on natural wellness.
