The use of botanical cleansers and purifiers in spring has long been a cornerstone of natural health care. This seasonal cleansing helped clear the body of the toxins thought to accumulate over the long winter. Herbal cleansing is still a vital aspect of a natural health care program. Planetary Herbals this month features four key products for herbal cleansing.

Triphala Internal Cleanser™ is a potent yet gentle formula designed to support the body's natural cleansing process with a focus on enhanced digestive and intestinal elimination. The single most important formula of Ayurvedic herbalism for thousands of years, it is a balanced blend of three Indian herbal fruits: harada, amla, and behada. The astringent qualities of these fruits serve to tonify the colon, thereby promoting intestinal cleansing naturally.

Bupleurum Liver Cleanse™ features bupleurum, one of the most potent and relied-upon liver cleansers of Chinese herbalism. This formula is specifically designed to support a healthy liver. In addition to bupleurum, it contains dandelion root, milk thistle, and other herbs known to support the liver's detoxification processes.

Tri-Cleanse™ is a hydrophilic bulking formula that supports digestion and elimination. It unites the classic fibers, flax, oat bran, and psyllium, with the legendary Triphala Internal Cleansing compound from India.

Stone Free™ is a unique combination designed to support the kidneys, liver, and gallbladder. It contains dandelion root and turmeric root, bitter substances, which support the body's normal bile flow, as well as gravel root, parsley root, and marshmallow root, which have been used historically to support normal fluid elimination.
