No, this is not an April Fool’s joke. I’m finally starting my nutritional detox program.
I know there are a lot of you out there that have been wondering when this detox was actually going to take place but the doctor thought I probably had a pretty high yeast level in my body that we needed to get rid of. We’ve worked that out and I have to say that the intestinal issues that I had have subsided. I believe the regimen she had me on along with preventative chiropractic care have helped regulate my body in ways it hadn’t been in a long time.
My first step, since I’ve never done one, is to do a liver cleanse. I started taking my Betafood (for the liver cleanse) yesterday. The tablets consist of beet root, beet leaf, oat flour and dried beet root juice. They pretty much smell like dried grass or hay. No taste. I’ve gotten a slight headache. I’m guessing from this step in the cleanse but you have to understand - I’ve NEVER tried to get toxin’s out of my body before. I’m real good at putting them in (alcohol, burgers, fries, sugars, chemicals that I touch or simply breath) so one has to expect a bit of a reaction. The doctors father has been doing this cleanse for a week or so and has gone down at least one size in clothing. He had to go out and buy new clothes. Now I don’t expect this to happen to me 1 because I’m female and our junk just clings to us and 2 I don’t want to get my hopes too high. I have been watching Doctor Kristin shrink a bit (I think she’s down at least 6lbs this week) and know something will happen.
Right now I am having my first shake on the cleanse. This shake is a dietary supplement that I have added blueberries and a banana to. For me, I will do 3 shakes a day along with my modified diet – as much organic as possible, lean proteins, fruits and veggies. There is suppose to be NO alcohol. This means I’ve given up my red wine for a while. And nothing processed. You have to strive to behave. I know I’ll need your support!
Friday starts more tablets and then we’ll be getting some serious detox started.
