Need to Cleanse?

Wanting to slim down, get healthy or look great while bikini season is still here? We just discovered Kaeng Raeng, an easy to use all natural detox cleanse designed for weight loss, removing toxins, boosting the immune system and improving digestive health. Kaeng Raeng was founded by Lindsay Reinsmith, a Stanford graduate and former journalist, who couldn’t find a convenient, filling, customizable, and affordable vegan cleanse, so she created her own. Kaeng Raeng is made from California grown ingredients, it’s also animal, gluten and caffeine free. Celebrity fans include Jennifer Lopez, Lauren Conrad and Alicia Silverstone.

You can choose from beginner, mid-level, or master level detox programs that last from 3 to 6 days. You won’t starve, since you can supplement it with raw fruits and vegetables. It costs from $69.99 for a three-day beginning program to $149.99 for a six-day master cleanse. Kaeng Raeng comes in three flavors and it’s available online [url=http://www.kaengraeng.com]http://www.kaengraeng.com[/url] or at Whole Foods stores in Huntington Beach, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach or in Tustin at the District at Tustin Legacy. Free shipping is available.
