DETOX
Detox is a first principle for a reason.
We are like fish swimming in a sea of toxins.
It is estimated that there are over 100k toxins in the air, water, fabrics and foods of modern living.
You would have to be "bubble boy" to avoid them...
(But even then---the bubble is made of plastic and probably would have toxins like BPA in it anyways ;)
So what can you do?
Instead of fretting about all of the things OUT there that can get you... (an outside-in approach)...
Let's take an "inside-out" approach as our main tactic.
I'm not saying we ignore mold, or not get water filters, drink tap-water and eat pesticide covered vegetables.
I am suggesting we first detox ourselves from our environment with proven protocols--and do it regularly!
Here's how!
If not at ideal body fat percentage and weight (meaning you have at least 15 lbs to lose), kick off your health journey with the 3 week functional medicine detox.
- Maintain with 1 week functional medicine detox per quarter.
- Complete the 6 week heavy metal detox at least once per year.
- Sweat with your own infra-red home sauna 3-4 x per week for up to 19 minutes.
- Work "detox foods" into your diet at least 3-4 days per week.
- Drink at least half of your body weight (in ounces) in water daily.
- Prioritize protein: 40-50 grams per meal x 3 meals per day.
- Get at least 7-8 hours of sleep nightly.
- Fiber first! 10-20 grams of fiber per meal x 3.
- Supplement vitamin C 1000 mg daily.
You can test your total toxic load right at home.

Detox Your Air
Here are 3 things you can do to purify the air in your home.
1.) Use Air Filters.
The simplest thing to do is change your house duct air filters regularly.
Next, consider putting a high quality air filter in your bedroom, where you may spend up to 10 hours of your day.
Here are some Air Filters (listed by price below)
2.) Use Salt Lamps
Salt Lamps can also clean the air and help calm the nervous system at night, while simultaneously decreasing blue light exposure.
3.) Harness the Power of Plants
Finally, use plants in every room possible.
NASA does this to clean the air for their astronauts.
You might not be an astronaut, but you are definitely out of this world! (sorry couldn't resist).
Air Purifying Plants:
- Aloe Vera
- Spider plant
- Snake plant
- Boston Fern
- Bromeliads
- Bamboo palm
- Yucca
- Succulents
- Herbs
By doing these simple things, you can make your house a clean air sanctuary.

Detox Your Skin
You would never think of drinking paint.
But did you know that anything you put on your skin goes directly to your bloodstream?
Is it possible that you are inadvertently "drinking" toxins through your skin every day?
Think about your daily routine.
- toothpaste
- bath soap
- shampoo
- moisturizers
- cosmetics
The average woman leaves the house with over a 100 toxins from her daily routine.
See what toxins are in bath and cosmetic products here!
So where do you start?
Don't worry!
You don't have to do it all at once.
Just pick one thing you can change this week....
Choose from the list below:
- Shampoo & Conditioner (Attitute, Babo Botanicals, Baja Baby, Be Green)
- Kids bubble soap, Soap (Dr. Bronner)
- Make-up (beGreen, Beauty Counter, Maia’s, Mineral Fusion)
- Moisturizers: Baja Baby, Dr. Bronners, Organic oil.
The bottom line is: "If you wouldn't drink or eat it, don't put it on your skin!"
