Hello! Are you enjoying your week? I have breakfast with friends and an EquiLife conference call in the afternoon. It’s just the right time to get excited about our new jobs. Next Community Detox – If you would like to participate, the event will start on September 16th!
With summer coming to an end, the kids going back to school and getting back into a routine after this long summer break, now is the perfect time to reset. I will be taking part in the 14 day version (I have done all three!), but you can decide whether you want to do the 7, 14 or 21 day version. There is plenty of time to get your kit. Use code FITNESSISTA10 to get 10% off.
When you hear the word “detox,” you might immediately feel a sense of disgust, and rightly so.
Many detoxes are… well, awful.
While juice cleanses aren’t purpose-built, they are often marketed as a way to lose weight quickly, with the main goal being to consume (often sugary) liquids for a few days before returning to your daily routine. I’ve tried popular brands of juice cleanses in the past, but they usually didn’t last long and left me exhausted, depleted, hungry and irritable. And even if I did lose a few pounds, it never stayed off (it was all water weight after all).
This is completely wrong. I’m excited to try it again, as I’ve done it before with great results. My body needed a little “reset.” I’ve recently been eating sugary and processed foods more often than usual, and I’ve noticed my skin condition and energy levels are declining. It’s time to give myself a little nudge to get started on getting back into some sustainable habits.
We’d love to do this as a community if you’d like to join us! (It would be so amazing to see 250 friends doing this and supporting each other in the process!)
7-Day Dr. Cabral EquiLife Detox:
Learn more about this 7 Day Detox:
– Liver-based detox It helps reset your body, take a break from digesting heavy foods, and rid your body of accumulated toxins from the environment. It contains functional medicinal ingredients and Ayurvedic herbs that support phases 1 and 2 of liver detoxification.
– Focus on nutritionThis includes POWERHOUSE Daily Nutritional Support Powder (which I take daily and have been for the past few years or so) and the dietary guidelines for the rest of my diet. The goal is to ensure that my body is not depleted of nutrients during this process.
– May aid in weight lossalong with Anti-aging, whole body health.
– The shortest version is just 7 days! When I first started working with a naturopath (back in the day! 2010 or so), he put me on a similar format 1 month detox (but without the Ayurvedic supplements). Doing it for 7 days is much easier and I feel like the results are even better with the additional nutrition. (First 2 days just supplements and smoothies, then add in a nutritious meal using the food guidelines/template on day 3. You can also modify or skip the first 2 days of fasting. In my case, I found that starting the program on day 3 and skipping the fasting day made me feel the best.)
The top 6 ingredients included in the program are:
1) N-acetylcysteine (NAC) stimulates the production of glutathione in the body.
2) Glutathione is an antioxidant that aids in healing and liver detoxification.
3) Broccophane is an antioxidant that enhances the liver’s detoxification ability
4) Alpha Lipoic Acid: Another Antioxidant That Enhances Detoxification
5) Triphala is a combination of three Ayurvedic herbs that aid in detoxification and digestion.
6) Vitamins and minerals support the body and help fill nutritional deficiencies
Each detox kit includes:
Daily Nutrition:
This one-stop source of vitamins, minerals, protein, electrolytes and antioxidants is the essence of Dr Cabral Detox. With 15 grams of vegan protein, Daily Nutritional Support provides your body with the energy and nutrients it needs every day while it begins to eliminate harmful toxins.
FM Detox:
FM Detox utilizes the latest research in functional medicine to provide the compounds needed to support both phases of liver detoxification. Essential amino acids, antioxidants, and plant extracts like milk thistle help the body capture toxins and move them to the liver where they can be metabolized and removed in phase two. Ingredients like dandelion root extract support the production of bile, which aids in excretion. As a diuretic, dandelion root increases fluid supply to the liver and promotes the excretion of toxins through urine.
AYU Detox:
Incorporating ancient Ayurvedic healing techniques to support optimal detoxification, AM Detox helps kick-start the detoxification process. A range of diuretics move fluid to the liver, increasing the solubility of toxins. Triphala is a combination of three plants — Emblica officinalis, Terminalia belerica, and Terminalia chebula — that have been studied for their role in gastrointestinal health. When used together, this powerful trio is said to promote the growth of beneficial gut microbes Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus, while suppressing the growth of undesirable strains.

What I noticed when I started this detox IHP Program:
– As someone who has had gallbladder concerns in the past (though I was able to resolve them myself); I always like to give my liver some extra support. I now have absolutely no gallbladder pain (I think part of that is because I stopped taking Beyond Meat) and once I was cured completely, I continue to do this 3-4 times a year.
– The first time I did the detox, I had a bit of a lack of energy the first day, but by the afternoon of the second day, It felt great. I had more energy, I was more focused, my brain was less foggy, my skin was glowing, and I just felt great.
– Detox months are always easier months for my cycle. I didn’t experience any period pain or PMS symptoms, and I learned that my cycle was at its best during the months when I was more strategic with my training, sleep, stress management, and nutrition.
– My sense of taste has been reset. When your diet is high in sugar, the flavour of things like fruit and salads can be diluted. By going back to basics, I was able to reawaken my sense of taste in food and really enjoy my meals and stay focused during mealtimes.
– I don’t weigh myself regularly, but I have noticed that my clothes fit better after I’ve finished the detox. I feel less bloated and inflamed.
This detox is not suitable for you if:
– If you currently suffer from or are recovering from an eating disorder, keep working to improve your relationship with food and your health. I encourage you and send you my love and support.
– If you are training for an intense event or need to maintain a super active lifestyle. Take days 1 and 2 easy (walk, stretch, light yoga or nothing at all). If you can’t do that, you can do a modified version of the detox by having smoothies for breakfast and lunch and a nutritious dinner in the evening. If you have any questions about this method, let me know.
– If you have health concerns that would prevent you from participating.
****As always, consult your doctor before making any fitness or nutritional changes. Take care of your body.
