Detoxing is so personally rewarding 😊 I’ve been doing it since the age of 18. I have been extremely fortunate to have landed on my feet studying natural medicine right out of high school- who knows what my health would have looked like if this hadn’t happen?

Just like you and most of us in our community, we have fallen into habits that that have become part of our western culture. We eat highly processed foods from very large supermarket companies who package them and put preservatives to keep them “fresh“ for longer.

We consume dairy, wheat, sugar, meats and deep-fried JUNK FOODS that our government and community members have invested in and sell to us as “good” foods. In small portions these products seem to be okay for us to eat, and some I would even recommend, but in excess many of these foods are causing inflammatory responses which can cause chronic inflammation and long lasting health issues.

When I was growing up, we had advertising about smoking tobacco and how cool and safe it was. They would always show people having fun, doing sports while smoking and showcase high profile fit healthy people, including doctors, who were paid to be in ads telling us it was fine 😣 We were silly enough to believe, 🤔 believe our government and believe TV stations 😬Since cigarettes 🚬 the same thing has happened over and over and over with many products that we consume including alcohol, sugary drinks, fast foods, lollies, etc.

So, detoxing really should be a way of life for all of us. We should use it in a way that helps us break away from these “normal” foods which may help regulate or curb our cravings. Studies have shown that sugar is more addictive in the brain than cocaine, imagine that 😳 and its available in every corner shop. This has created a massive issue in our communities, such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular 🫀 disease, fatty liver, and many cancers.

Detoxing from these foods, eliminates our natural way of thinking to reach out for these particular groups of food and it makes us more aware that perhaps we shouldn’t be eating so much of it. During a detox we learn to eliminate some of these foods that are causing us to be chronically sick.  I see patients every week that are in a chronic state of inflammation and they don’t even realise until I point it out! 😵‍💫 We look around and we see others that are just like us, and we don’t realise that it is not healthy. Are we brainwashed? Or just pretending it’s not really happening to us and our families 🤐

Detoxing helps to reduce inflammation because you’re cutting out foods that are causing your system to have an inflammatory affect, foods like gluten dairy alcohol acidic foods like meats and many more.

Weight loss is a reaction of a Detox which is a well welcomed reaction to all of us. When we eliminate bad foods while in our detoxification weeks, we drop weight healthily. I have had patients lose 6 kg in two weeks and they are amazed 😎 plus, they get such great results they do it for longer periods. Majority of people who have done my detox have joined again on multiple occasions BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU FEEL GREAT 👍🏽

Detoxing in short periods throughout the year seems achievable for many people and this way you can eat a fairly normal western diet, but with your Detox program scattered through the year you keep yourself in check 😁 The more you Detox, the better your diet becomes overall! It gets cleaner and cleaner, your inflammation becomes lower and lower, and you feel the benefits!

The number one benefit I feel every time I do a detox is less joint pain and for those of you who suffer with joint pain/arthritis/ rheumatism/ or from long term injuries 🏌🏽‍♂️you know this pain is horrible. By doing a detox you will feel a 50% or more relief from your pain, it is truly amazing!

I also feel more switched on, my focus comes to me straight away, I get excited about life again and I’m able to wake up earlier with purpose and more desire to do things! I clean my house, I go through all the cupboards and declutter my house which helps declutter my brain 😃

All your hormones become more balanced, and your moods become stable. Toxins seem to block and way you down, so suddenly when they’re not there, you feel wonderful/happy.

Better sleep, less stress/anxiety, you feel more nourished, because probably at this stage, you’re eating proper whole foods 👍🏽you breathe easier and deeper as you’re moving physically more and more, you have more planned exercise which oxygenate your blood, making you think clearly, it’s a beautiful feeling!

I have always had the motivation to detox by myself, and I realise that not many people can, so I offer a group detoxification program and I’ve designed it to be as easy as possible. I do a one-on-one phone consultation which highlights specifically what your detox looks like for you. I prescribe herbal vitamin mineral supplementation’s that will help you with this detoxification process. We have a closed Facebook group (maximum of 20) which we all commit to checking in twice a day and give some interaction to keep us all in focus for the two weeks. We are helping motivate each other, posting what we have done, posting what we are eating, posting what exercise/movements we are doing.

Start to think about your future! Please look up my next two week Detox Program and put your name down or simply call my office 94783869 and they will advise you on the next start date ⏰

I guarantee you will be impressed! 🥳
