Why Detox? 5 Reasons a Detox Can Do Your Body Good!

Millions of people suffer from an overloaded toxic body... whether it be headaches and brain fog to sore joints and muscles, or more serious ailments such as autoimmune disorders, migraines or worse, toxins pose a problem for our health which is why detoxes are so often suggested as a great benefit.
I know that sometimes when we hear the word 'detox' we worry about how it may affect us...will I starve?... "is it a poopy cleanse?" lol 
When I talk about detox I am referring to a nutritional rebalancing detox or nutritional cleansing detox.
Nutritional Cleansing is not the same as a colon detox or colon cleansing, which is based on using fiber or laxatives to shed gunk and foreign substances from your colon. Instead, Nutritional Cleansing involves using nutrition to help your body perform at its best by ridding it of harmful substances, naturally.
Nutritional Cleansing detox uses natural ingredients to nourish your body while assisting your liver and cells in ridding the body of harmful chemicals and toxins in order to help you feel healthier and more energized and allowing it to release the unhealthy, toxic fat cells from the body!
I can think of so many reasons to detox, but here's just a few...

The Top 5 Reasons to Detox:


  1. Weight loss: 
    One of the best benefits of a regular body cleanse is for weight loss. Many people experience weight loss after the detox is complete. The majority of this weight comes from built-up waste and toxins throughout the digestive tract that have built up and attached itself to the linings of the intestines. A regular cleanse can help to dislodge waste and other build-up.
  2. Better Sleep: Another common reported benefit of a regular body cleanse is improved sleep. Body cleanses remove toxins that are absorbed and ingested on a daily basis through food that contains pesticides, synthetic chemicals and other harmful substances. One of the symptoms of this unhealthy buildup is compromised sleep patterns, insomnia and persistent fatigue. By removing these harmful toxins, the body is able to get back to normal restful sleep.
  3. Clearer Skin: Improved skin clarity is another popular benefit of a body detox. In addition to the digestive tract, the skin is one of the major organs responsible for the release of waste from the body. As toxic waste slowly builds up in the intestines, the body tries to sweat it out through the pores, causing congestion and breakouts on the surface of the skin. Removing this waste through a cleanse leads to clearer skin. (Try Cleanse for Life or start your 30 day cleansing and fat burning system here. )
  4. Boosted Immune System: People who suffer from frequent colds or other illnesses often find that their immune system improves after completing a regular cleanse. The immune system gets a profound boost after a cleanse because the body no longer has to fight harmful bacteria stuck in the intestines, so it is now free to handle the everyday threats against it.
  5. Digestive Regularity. Body detoxes help correct digestive irregularity. The fiber, hydrating elements and active herbal ingredients in the Cleanse stimulate the colon to move material through the system and restore the natural rhythm of the digestive tract.

    Ways to Detox?  
    Here are 4 of my favorite ways to Properly Cleanse and Detox the Body:
    1- Apple Cider Vinegar- When the body is overloaded with toxins, the PH level tends to be more acidic creating an environment for illness to thrive.  ACV is great for helping to alkalize the body and bring the PH back to where it should be. Click here for more suggestions on how to use ACV in your daily wellness regimen.  
    2- Dandelion Tea-  dandelion helps to increase bile production in the liver and detox the kidneys.  Here's an example of a dandelion detox tea I like to drink. 
    3- Bentonite Clay- Is a binder that collects toxins as it passes through the digestive tract.  Here's a great supplement to support the body during detox and nutritional cleansing with bentonite clay. 
    4- Nutritional Cleansing-  uses natural ingredients to nourish your body while assisting your liver and cells in ridding the body of harmful chemicals and toxins in order to help you feel healthier and more energized and allowing it to release the unhealthy, toxic fat cells from the body!

Do We Really Need Nutritional Supplements? Top 5 Reasons We Need to Supplement

Do I really need to supplement? Why is it so important, anyways? Well, in a perfect world, none of us would need to supplement because we'd be able to get all the nutrients we need to survive from the food we eat.  But due to the poor quality of our modern diet from chemicals, preservatives and toxins, daily stresses etc, few of us are able to get what we need even in the most strict of organic diets. According to Dr. Mark Hyman, "Most people don’t understand the role of vitamins and minerals in our bodies. I certainly didn’t when I finished medical training. I thought if we just had enough to prevent us from some horrible deficiency state like scurvy (vitamin C deficiency), then you didn’t have to worry about how much you were getting. I also thought that if you ate “enriched food” like white flour with a few vitamins added back in, or milk with vitamin D added in, additional vitamin supplementation was a waste." read his article here: ' Do you need n...

Toxic Fat: How Toxins Make You Fat and What you can do about it!

Do Toxins actually make you fat?? What is the connection between toxins and fat and what can you do about it? According to Dr. Mark Hyman, "Scientists recently uncovered a surprising and disturbing fact: environmental toxins make you fat and cause diabetes. Inside the body, these chemicals monkey with our ability to balance blood sugar and metabolize cholesterol. Over time, the changes can lead to insulin resistance. This discovery should be headline news but no one is talking about it. Why? Because there are no drugs to treat it. In the quest to conquer the two biggest epidemics of our time—diabetes and obesity—we’ve got to turn our attention to the heavy burden environmental toxins put on our bodies." As a direct result of all the toxins around us, in the air we breathe and the food we eat, our bodies are filled with toxins and our bodies literally use fat as a way to  protect our vital organs from those toxins.
