For the last 20 years learning what helps people get well and stay well has become a passion of mine. Looking at their environment, diet, mindset, habits, internal health and also level of toxicity in the body are all important factors when it comes to improving your level of wellbeing.
I will never forget when I started to learn about the power of detoxing your body. How years of undigested food, fecal matter, chemicals and preservatives from our food or products we use can build up in our system, and the only way to rid our body of it, is to give it a good spring clean, just like we would our home.
Health pioneers such as Bernard Jensen, Anne Wigmore and Don Tolman have spoken about the benefits of cleansing the body for decades, which is what set me off on the path to learn more. To the point that I ran detox programs for clients in the USA and Europe and then opened my own Detox Lounge on the Gold Coast, Australia.
In my recent podcast episode on the Power Of Detox, I promised to share some of my favourite cleansing juice recipes with you to help you on your health journey. If you haven’t already listened to the episode, you can check it out here, and get all the juice on why you even need to detox in the first place.
I’ll let you in on a stat that blew my mind!! The average person has between 400 and 800 chemical residues in the fat cells of their body, which can contribute to health issues, weight problems, hormone irregularity, energy levels and so much more.
