Detox Challenge

Our bodies are designed to flush out toxins, but with all of the preservatives, pesticides, artificial flavours & colors, and other chemicals we expose ourselves to daily, our bodies can’t keep up, and the toxins often end up stored in fatty and other tissues in the body. Polluting ourselves like this cause our organs and systems to work harder increasing the chances of illness and disease.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired? Fed up with headaches? Bloated? Want to improve concentration and mood, manage allergies, and stimulate digestive health? Experience loads of healthful benefits by accepting the “Detox Challenge!”


I am challenging you to a 7 day cleanse/detox. It cuts out the “Big Bad 5” foods that are hard on our digestive systems, and adds in lots of nutritious, fiber-rich foods that will scrub out all that built up gunk! . Read the "Eat these, Avoid these food lists", "Detox Prep", "Cleanse Meal Suggestions" posts and visit our "recipe share page" for wealth of information!  *To read this rest of this article, Please just scroll down a bit & click "Click Here to READ FULL POST"*

Detox PREP

A few steps to prep you for detox success!!

3 weeks before

1)Commit, pick a date & find some friends to partake in the detox with you (to encourage you & keep you accountable)!

2)Detox suggests drinking a whack load of filtered water each day of the detox period, so ensure that you have access to filtered water in your daily routine (preferably not from plastic bottles).  I ordered a stainless steel (to avoid PBA plastic issues) water bottle with a built in filtering system so that I can have all my filtered water anywhere, anytime. Currently 40% off at www.naturesalternatives.com 

3)If you are still holding onto your favorite chemical-laden cleaning and personal care products, now is the time to put that extra effort into replacing them with clean alternatives!  It would be a shame to work so hard to detoxify, only to be adding toxins back into your body daily from the products you use! (If you need suggestions on clean alternatives, ask me!)
