Why do leaves fall in the fall?
It may seem like an unoriginal question, but the answer actually offers an interesting point for reflection. Fall is the time when leaves stop receiving their lifeblood, complete their life cycle, and fall to the ground.

It is no coincidence that autumn is often associated with natural death—something wonderful and yet deeply melancholic that makes us realize that everything has a beginning and, inevitably, an end. But it is also true that beginnings could not take place … without the necessary space.

Without the natural shedding of the old leaves, the new ones wouldn’t even be able to sprout. There simply wouldn’t be enough room on the branches for them to grow.
In short, what we witness in the fall is a sort of purification of the tree, which slowly sheds its dead skin to be reborn even stronger, greener, and healthier. It’s no coincidence that fall is considered the best time of year to focus on caring for and purifying your body. We recommend starting with the gut because, on an energetic level, it reaches its peak energy during these months.

So, how can we help our bodies make room and cleanse themselves?

An Ancient Remedy.

Just as a tree’s health depends on its roots, which absorb nutrients from the soil, so too is the health of our body closely linked to the balance of our gut. Throughout the year, this vital organ is responsible for absorbing water and electrolytes and eliminating excess waste. The entire Antico Rimedio line has been specifically designed to help the gut naturally release harmful substances and better absorb beneficial ones.

Our naturopath explained in detail what a possible regimen might look like for a deep intestinal cleanse.“I recommend starting with Purificationis 1,”Marika explains.“It’s a remedy that comes in sachets to be dissolved in water in the morning and evening. I recommend takingtwo boxes back-to-back to complete a 14-day intestinal cleanse.” For an even more thorough cleanse, you can follow up with another product, also from the Antico Rimedio line.

"Psyllium Complex supports intestinal transit and can be safely used on its own as a digestive regulator. But when used after Purificationis 1, thanks to its vitamins, fructooligosaccharides, inulin, and psyllium, it nourishes the beneficial gut flora and restores intestinal balance."

This can be a good routine to repeat every year during the fall months to help your body rid itself of toxins. Just like a tree, our bodies also need to make room and lighten their load to better face the new season.
