Whether it’s exhaust fumes, pesticides in the food we eat, or contaminants in the water we drink, it’s a toxic world… but there is a very effective way to fight back.
Every day we are exposed to invisible toxins in the food we eat, in the air we breathe, and in the water we drink. When these toxins accumulate, we don’t feel our best. Symptoms such as fatigue, “brain fog,” poor sleep, compromised immunity, head and body aches are signs that you may be experiencing toxin overload. It’s a good practice to cleanse regularly to stay healthy.
The liver and kidney are the primary cleansing organs of the body. Their job is all about detoxification. But, sometimes our exposure to toxins exceeds our body’s ability to effectively and completely remove them. A cleanse optimizes the function of your body’s organs of elimination. I like to time my cleanses with the four season to make sure I am maintaining my state of wellness throughout the year.
What’s a cleanse?
There are all kinds of cleanses. Some use questionable science and unproven products. I personally use and recommend Metagenics because of their extensive research and high standards in manufacturing. And because I have used Metagenics for more than twenty years, I have seen the positive results. When you do a cleanse with my professional support and encouragement, I have a proven set of guidelines.
A typical cleanse lasts for ten days. During a cleanse, I avoid taking in caffeine, dairy, trans fats, white flour and sugar. I always try to eat healthy food. During a cleanse I pay special attention to only eat “good fats which include organic, expeller-pressed, extra virgin olive oil and/or coconut oil. I seek out “good proteins”– wild caught fish, free range eggs and and eat less meat. I also focus on “healthy carbohydrates” such as organic vegetables and fruits.
Cleansing is an energy/nutrient intensive, so supplemental support is essential. The cleanse I support includes following the diet recommendations outlined above plus Metagenics shakes and a regular supplement capsule that provides essential nutrients that support the liver and gastrointestinal tract. *
When we cleanse together you will likely feel and even look better. If you have questions, I am happy to help resolve them and look forward to working together on wellness. Please call or email.
