Tips for Detoxing

 

 Did you know?

  • Over 3,000 chemicals are added to our food supply
  • More than 10,000 chemical solvents, emulsifiers and preservatives are used in food processing
  • The chemicals outlawed over 50 years ago are still found in our blood
  • That losing weight counts as detoxification due to the high amount of toxins stored in adipose (fat) tissue.

What Can I DO About It?

 

1.  AVOID chemical exposure    Here are a few examples

Bisphenol A - found in plastics, canned food, soda, grocery receipts;  they can cause cancer and damage the nervous system
Pthalates - found in solvents, paint, glue, perfumes, shower curtains, plastic tableclothes, raincoats;  they can cause cancer and damage the reproductive system
VOC's - volatile organic compounds found in paint.  Use VOC free paint.
Plastics - the safest numbers are 2, 4, and 5
Pesticides - read about symptoms of exposure and sources
Fish - avoid high mercury in fish.

2.  Use air filters - Arizona air has a high content of particulates that contain pesticides and heavy metals.

3.  EAT only organic, hormone free products. Growing evidence that avoiding pesticides and chemicals reduces risk for cancer.

4.  Support our body's detoxification pathways.  These are in the liver.  There are many pathways, and they all need certain amino acids, vitamins and minerals to be able to work correctly.  If we give our body what it needs in high amounts, it makes the liver work faster and more efficiently.  REMEMBER, detoxing your body can be harmful if not done correctly.  Always ask your physician if you are well enough for an intense detox.   

  • Helpful supplements are NAC, L-glutamine, Alpha Lipoic Acid, L- Methionine, Calcium D-Glucarate
  • Whey protein powder has high amounts of needed amino acids
  • HIGH fiber diet pulls out toxins in the stool
  • Herbs that stimulate detox are burdock root, dandelion root, milk thistle seed, celandine leaf, beet root
  • Flax lignans, ground flax seed, psyllium seed will help pull out toxins (vitally important!) can add these to a smoothie
  • Broccoli, beets and other cruciferous vegetables stimulate liver function, eat 1 serving each day
  • Foods like onions, garlic which have high sulfur content help the liver process toxins, eat 5 servings per week
  • Drink Green Tea, we need anti-oxidants to detox safely
  • Include antioxidant foods (organic only) berries, bright colored vegetables in the daily diet

WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
A healthy way to detox
The program that took Australia by storm is now in the US!!
I am pleased to be one of the few physicians trained in this method apple meas tapeof weight loss. ULTRA LITEwas developed by a Naturopathic Physician, and teaches you how to eat right for life. 

hCG is all the talk these days.  This diet is not for everyone.  i conduct a thorough screening, including lab work, before patients are selected for this program. 

The hCG weight loss protocolconsists of a very low calorie diet accompanied by treatments of hCG,  injected.  The average hCG dieter experiences rapid weight loss averaging 1 to 3 pounds per day.  In addition to loss of unwanted fat, the true benefit of the hCG protocol is its ability to help modify the dieter's relationship with food and eating, resulting in easily maintained, long-term weight loss.


By avoiding refined carbohydrates and sugar, and limiting excess carbohydrates you will maximize fat loss as your body will instead burn stored fat, providing energy through natural ketosis.

Research shows that the #1 factor in how much weight is lost and how much is kept off - is Physican monitoring.
I would love to talk to you.  If you would like, feel free to call and set up a phone consult, free of charge. 
 
To your health!
