I would recommend this detox to anyone who wants to make some lifelong changes to their diet, body and health.
I say that because it is not a quick fix or a “diet” really…it’s a restart to a healthier lifestyle with better nutrition choices. For me, I have never spent so much time thinking about and taking care of myself.
Steaming, massage, yoga, breathing, cooking, journaling. It takes commitment, but honestly…it’s NOT hard at all! In fact, it was a pleasure. I am adapting a lot of the things that were in the detox into my daily routine. I realized how much meat and dairy negatively affect my body, so I am attempting to switch to a more plant based diet. The inflammation alone that has left my body is amazing!
You can literally feel toxins leaving your body and you start to become addicted to it. Meaning…I would get sweats or a headache and not be mad at it because I knew things were moving through and out of my body. I still have not had coffee…almost 2 weeks later…not on purpose, but I honestly am enjoying matcha coconut lattes so much that I am going to stay away as much as I can from coffee. I also don’t wake up tired and in desperate need of that cup of joe while eating this way.
This is all coming from a self-proclaimed “carnivore who could never give up red meat and cheese, and could eat eggs at every meal.”
I am not saying that I won’t have those things again, but I am saying that I feel MUCH better day to day without them. The recipes are really great! I am on the hunt for great vegan dairy products to accompany my plant based stocked fridge. Who am I? HaHa.
