Clear the FOG


Day after day we take in unwanted and unhealthy toxins in our food, water, medications, and air supply. They get stored in our fat cells, and it’s next to impossible to avoid them completely. They’re pesticides, mold byproducts on otherwise health-promoting grains and legumes, antibiotics, hormones, food additives and preservatives, chemicals in food packaging, household cleaners, heavy metals, car exhaust and other air pollutants, and cigarette smoke.

Our body’s natural detoxification system does a decent job of eliminating some of these, but can’t deal with all the toxins present in our modern world. Moreover, a shabby diet lacks certain vital nutrients to naturally detox, leading to further build-up in the body.

Such build-up is responsible for a crummy immune system (do you get every sickness that enters the room?), nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and a poorly oiled metabolic machine. Real life signs of this build-up include indigestion, poor attention span, fatigue, stinky breath, acne and other skin problems, low sex drive, headaches, food cravings, muscle pain, and weight changes.

Following a mild detox occasionally can help improve your digestion, skin clarity, energy levels, and ability to concentrate, while also promoting more restful sleep, regular bowel movements, fewer unhealthy food cravings, and a speedier metabolism.
