Cleansing and Detox Protocols
Spring is a time when nature is emerging; percolating sounds of life and rebirth fill us with great anticipation for vibrancy and resonance. Can you feel it yet? The days are longer, the birds are starting their return, and the trees are budding with their emergence of life. What if you too emerge with vibrancy and awakened life? With March 20th being the first official day of Spring, it is time to clear out the proverbial cobwebs and shed our hibernating ‘coat’ to support our body in achieving resonance and optimal health. We can emerge in health by cleansing our body, our mind and our surroundings. When we cleanse the idea is to clear out toxins, activate our lymph system, support our gut and liver, reduce inflammation with healthy foods and provide the best ‘house’ to do it in. Below are several area of focus, each important in their own way, particularly at this time of year: Body Cleanses
Core restore 14 day cleanse by Orthomolecular (try extending to 28 days) - professionally designed for binding toxins, reducing inflammation, providing liver and nutrient support while on an anti inflammatory diet - 25% off
I also like Whole 30 but you need additional kidney, liver and GI supplemental support for optimal detoxification (see below for suggestions)
Implement intermittent fasting - 16-18 hour fast, at least 2 times per week but more if well tolerated
Detox and Healing Support Products (all 25% off in March)
Thorne Fibermend a rice bran fiber to bind toxins and help bowel strength and elimination
Xymogen GlutAloeMine to provide fuel for the mucosa and to heal the gut
Extreme Immunity - a bovine immunoglobulin powder to neutralize toxins and microbes in the gut lumen.
Xymogen Medcaps DPO as a Phase I and II detoxifier
