Recover from the holidays and start the New Year in health by allowing your body to reset and rejuvenate with a detoxification plan.
Your body’s detoxification system is responsible for your body’s powerful natural ability to self-heal, and for keeping you healthy, youthful and happy. Periodic detoxification is essential to thriving in modern society. Our body’s detoxification system has not evolved to handle the toxic load that we’re exposed to daily that has increased hugely in the last hundred years. Detoxification resets the physical and mental body, and results in the body’s ability to maintain steady energy levels, avoid colds and flu, reduce allergies, digest with ease, and look and feel younger.
Here are the basic principles of detoxification:
1.Toxins and stress create blockages to normal functioning and self-healing.
2. The modern diet is laden with toxins and lacking in vital nutrients.
3. Removing blockages and providing what is lacking allows the body to come back to a healthy state where you experience greater health, energy and vitality, and well-being.
Successful and safe detoxification programs are nutrient dense. Many vitamins, minerals and antioxidants are necessary for the body to excrete the toxins it releases during detoxification. When participating in detoxification programs that focus on elimination without increasing the nutrients available to the body, one can experience discomfort, lethargy, hunger, moodiness or headaches as toxins are released.
There are some great books you can check out to learn how to detoxify safely on your own, like Clean by Dr. Alejandro Junger and The Blood Sugar Solution: 10 Day Detox Diet by Dr. Mark Hyman. You can also start right away with our awesome Design’s For Health 14 Day Detoxification Package for Physical and Spiritual Health (Click here!). Or, schedule a consultation to develop a personalized plan with me designed for your goals and tastes.

Yours In Health,
