Fall Sugar Detox Challenge

9/9/2015

0 Comments

 
It's that time of year again, my absolute favourite season, Fall is here! Part of me can't believe there are only 4 months left in 2015 but the other part is thrilled that the cooler weather is setting in and pumpkin spice everything is back! 

This is also the time of year that is the perfect opportunity to revamp your health with a nutritional detox. I have talked about why I prefer to do detoxes with a focus on diet many, many times before. For myself, and in my practice, I like to use a 'detox' as a way to get healthy practices and diet back on track as I find life generally derails them a bit.

After many basic gluten/dairy free detoxes, I upped the game a bit this past Spring by doing a Whole 30 as my Spring detox. I really liked it. You can read more about my experience with it here (mid way point) and here (at the end). 

What I liked most about it was the focus on removing sugar. Sugar has a huge impact on our health and as a society, we consume far too much, much of the time without even realizing it. So, for this detox, I will again be focusing on the basics- gluten/dairy AND removing sugar. 

Interested in following along with me? Here are the details:
  • I will be cleansing for 2 weeks (14 days).
  • I will share my 2 week meal plan including recipes for what I will be eating.
  • It will focus on whole, real foods. I will provided the list of foods that I will be eating and those I will be avoiding.
  • The kick off will be after Thanksgiving weekend in October..
  • I will also give an online talk/webinar on why my detox/diet plan focuses on what it does, why foods are included/excluded, how to read food labels, sneaky non 'health' foods, and more.
  • And the best part...it's FREE! Just sign up below and watch your inbox!

This cleanse can also be customizable depending on your specific health goals. If you would like to add supplementation to support certain organ systems or have specific health goals/concerns, you are of course welcome to book in to discuss them further so we can create a tailored plan just for you!

The fine print:
This cleanse and recipes provided are what I will be personally using, this may not be best for everyone and it does NOT replace individualized care from your health care provider. Like any diet changes, it's important to check with your health care professional if you have any health conditions such as 
  • Pregnancy or lactation women
  • Gallstones or obstructed bile passages
  • Hepatitis or obstructed liver function
  • Obstructed bowels
  • Kidney dysfunction
  • Heart disease or diabetes
  • Cancer
  • Recovering from surgery
  • Are on any prescription medications
  • etc.
Though these conditions may not be absolute contraindications, it is important to discuss it with your health care professional. At no point should this be a substitute for professional medical advice. And of course, if you would like to participate but aren't sure, you are welcome to book an appointment to discuss it further.
