Why We Skip Nightshades During Detox
Temporarily removing tomatoes, eggplant, potatoes, and peppers can help reduce inflammation and uncover hidden sensitivities.
- Nightshades contain alkaloids that may irritate the gut or joints
- They can mask subtle reactions from other foods
- Removing them gives your system space to reset more clearly
Why Quality Matters: Skip Conventional Meats & Farm-Raised Seafood
This isn’t just about eating protein. It’s about eating clean protein that supports your body’s healing process.
-
Grain-fed meats may contain inflammatory compounds
-
Antibiotics, hormones, and chemical residues are common in conventionally raised meats
-
Farm-raised fish are often exposed to contaminants like heavy metals, antibiotics, and unnatural feed
-
Grass-fed, pasture-raised, or wild-caught options are cleaner, more nutrient-dense, and support detox pathways more effectively
Choosing high-quality animal protein reduces your toxic load and gives your body the clean fuel it needs to repair and thrive.
How to Dine Out, Celebrate, or Travel, and Stay on Track
Busy schedule? Social event? Vacation plans? You can still stay in the flow of your detox by sticking with the structure and choosing wisely.
-
Stick to your rhythm:
2 shakes • 2 optional snacks • 1 clean meal -
Go simple:
Grilled organic meat or fish, sautéed veggies, fresh salads with lemon & olive oil -
Avoid:
Bread, cheese, fried foods, creamy sauces, desserts, alcohol
💡Tip: Ask for substitutions at restaurants. Most places are happy to accommodate if you’re clear and polite.
