Why Detox?

Detoxification is a natural process where our body eliminates toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph, and skin. This process of detoxification is compromised when our toxin load is more than what our body can handle. There are two main types of toxins:

  • Endo-toxins – produced by the body mostly as by-products of metabolism such as urea, ammonia, and carbon dioxide
  • Exo-toxins – external toxins from the environment and they are also a major contributor to our body's toxicity overload.

Here are some ways we come into contact with exo-toxins regularly:

  • Food that we eat – diets rich in animal protein and dairy, preservatives, additives, pesticides, antibiotics and hormones fed to animals, high level of mercury in some types of fish, refined grains and sugars, high levels of sodium, caffeine and alcohol
  • Water that we drink and use (cook with, shower with)
  • Air that we breathe – exposure to cigarette smoke, automobile exhaust, paint, etc.
  • Products that we put on our skins – make-up, personal hygiene products
  • Radiation from microwaves, televisions, and cell phones

While our body has the ability to detoxify on its own, when the overall toxin load is more than it can handle, we start accumulating the toxins in our body, and this can contribute to inflammation. As a reaction to these excess toxins, the body surrounds them with mucous and fat, so as to keep them from causing further imbalances in our immune system. Some people can hold up to 15 pounds of excess mucous, fluid and fecal matter buildup, and fat-harboring toxins!

Here are some common symptoms of high levels of toxicity. Take this medical symptom/toxicity questionnaire to see how inflamed your body might be. 

  • Digestive problems (irritable bowel syndrome, bloatedness)
  • High stress
  • Chronic headaches or skin conditions
  • Aching joints and muscles
  • Low energy, depression, or insomnia
 

 

Even if you follow a healthy diet, a detox program can help rid your body of harmful bacteria, viruses and parasites. Most illnesses are caused by either a lack of proper nutrients or an excess of toxins, both of which weaken the body's ability to heal and function properly. However, a well-designed and properly administered detox program can get the body running smoothly down to the cellular level and enhance its ability to process toxins.

Our Delicious Detox™ is designed to:

  • Remove gluten and dairy and other common food allergens
  • Remove transfat, HFCS, processed food, refined carbs, and other low quality foods which cause inflammation in your body
  • Provide you with high quality, whole ingredients
  • Help you eat on a regular schedule (important for blood sugar level, bowel movements, and managing mood swings)
  • Help you build a more hands-on relationship with your food

During the Delicious Detox™, you will:

  • Give your digestive system a break
  • Give your liver the raw materials it needs to remove toxins more effectively
  • Provide raw materials for the body to heal itself – upping the intake of better nutrients
  • Help reduce inflammation in your body – which shows up in more energy, better skin, weight-loss, etc.

After detoxification, you'll notice more resilient skin, clearer eyes, some weight loss, anti-aging effects, fewer headaches, more energy, clearer thinking, a positive attitude, increased productivity, reduction of allergy symptoms and less sickness throughout the year.

How do I know if the Detox is right for me?
