Is The New Life Detoxification Program Effective In Removing The Physical Restimulation?

My daughter is in a rehab facility in colorado and has hepatitis c. She will begin soon for several weeks. New Life Detoxification program removes the root cause of future physical re-stimulation. She is now itching and we are waiting on a new blood test. This rehab program is a 4-6 month program and we pray this works.

Hello,

I understand your concern about your daughter's health. I'm sure a parent is willing to do whatever it takes for their child's well being.
The New Life Detox program is, unfortunately, a program which is not really based on credible and sound scientific facts. The mechanism behind this method is described as flushing out the residues of the drugs and toxins stuck in the fat tissue, even long time after the substance abuse has stopped, thus claiming to erase all "memory" of the body about the said substance. And this is done through physical exercise and sweating induced by long sessions of sauna.
I'm sorry to say that there is absolutely no scientific basis to support this theory and there is not enough data to support the fact that it works, either.
There have been, however, cases of fatalities due to unnecessarily long sessions of sauna leading to dehydration and other heath complications.
After all, this is not a program designed by medically qualified authorities.

Wishing your daughter a swift recovery and a long and healthy life.
All the best
