Success Beyond the Detox

The 10-day spring detox is over! We feel lighter, more energized and focused, and we hope you do too — so let’s talk about how to keep the benefits going!

The key is to support the organs and cellular pathways of elimination on a regular basis. This means taking care of our intestines, kidneys, skin, lymphatic system, liver and lungs so they can efficiently remove toxins from the body all year round.

- PRACTICES TO INCORPORATE BEYOND THE DAILY BENEFIT DETOX -

	NO. 1 INFRARED SAUNA Infrared sauna or “intentional sweating” helps the body eliminate toxins, especially heavy metals. Keep in mind that sweating also pulls electrolytes and minerals from your body, so it’s important to drink plenty of fluids and replenish minerals — we love adding a dropperful of SpectraMins into our (non-plastic) water bottles.
	NO. 2 EPSOM SALT BATH  Epsom salt contains magnesium sulfate, a mineral compound that helps to pull toxins from our largest detoxifying organ — the skin. Soaking in a hot bath for 15-30 minutes with 1 cup of Epsom salt can help remove harmful toxins from your body.
	NO. 3 GET MOVING Exercise is another way to sweat, while also improving circulation and helping you mobilize and release toxins stored in fat tissue.
	NO. 4 STAY WELL HYDRATED All critical mechanisms for toxin elimination rely on adequate hydration. Simply drinking enough water can be the most effective way to support your detox pathways. Proper hydration allows three of our detox systems to work better: urination, lymphatic drainage, and regular bowel movements.
	NO. 5 FUEL YOUR BODY  Remember how energized you feel when sticking to the Daily Benefit detox meal plan! Continue to enjoy plenty of fiber-rich fruits and vegetables, protein, and other detoxifying foods like beets, leafy greens, radishes, broccoli, cabbage, and artichokes.
	NO. 6 SUPPORT REGULARITY  One or two bowel movements every day is one of the most efficient ways to expel toxins out of your body. If you struggle to achieve this, we recommend upping your fiber intake through high fiber foods or adding our Daily Benefit Fiber to your routine. In addition, drinking plenty of water and other liquids throughout the day can make your bowel movements easier to pass.
	NO. 7 DAILY BENEFIT DETOX SHAKE You don’t have to be “on the detox” to incorporate our detox shakes on a regular basis. The combination of plant-based protein, fiber, and gut-supportive nutrients are designed to assist in detoxification.
	NO. 8 COME SEE US In addition to everything we’ve mentioned, working with a nutritionist can take your health to the next level. We can design a personalized protocol for you based on your individual health goals, lifestyle, and preferences, and be there to provide motivation and support as you build life-long healthy habits.

If you felt a difference after the 10-day detox, imagine how great you would feel after doing a full 30-day detox! This is the exact same plan as the spring detox, only for a longer period of time. The 30-day detox plan created by Dr. Morrison provides you with all the vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fiber you need to jumpstart your health, leaving you looking and feeling refreshed!
