What is Detoxification?

Some estimates show that Americans are exposed to more than 700,000 toxic chemicals on a daily basis! Chronic exposure to many of these toxic chemicals can contribute to a variety of negative health conditions including cancer and cardiovascular disease. While it is impossible to completely avoid many of these chemicals, it’s vital that we prime our body to deal with them appropriately.

In truth, the body is designed to naturally eliminate toxins before they become problematic. However, there has never been a time in human history where our toxic burden is as high as it is now. Due to the increase in toxin exposure, sedentary lifestyles, poor sleep quality, and nutrient deficient diets, toxins buildup in our bodies much faster than we can eliminate them.

A well-designed detoxification protocol revs up the bodies detoxification pathways and provides the necessary nutrients and phytochemicals to allow the body to eliminate many of these environmental toxins safely and effectively. 

There are several systems involved in detoxification including:

• Liver: The filtration point. Filters out and transforms toxic substances in the blood into harmless substances that can be excreted in the urine or stool.

• Kidneys: Provide a route for toxin excretion via the urine, performing a vital component in the detoxification process as they provide a route for toxin excretion via the urine.

• Intestines: Support regular bowel movements, eliminate the buildup of unhealthy microorganisms and internal toxins, and provide a strong and intact barrier to prevent the leakage of toxic materials from the intestines into circulation.

What to expect in this program

During the two weeks of this program, you can expect to enhance your body’s natural detoxification capabilities. This program will provide the necessary nutrients and phytochemicals to support each phase of the detoxification process. Keep in mind, weight loss often comes along with detoxification, so, you can expect to lose a couple of pounds along the way as well.

When you join our detox program, you receive a full 14-day meal schedule, recipes for each meal you will be eating, a grocery list for each item you need for the recipes and a FREE detox kit with natural supplements to aid the detoxification process.

In-Print Feburary 2022
Tick Talk

Spring officially sprung on March 21. We have turned our clocks ahead. We are looking forward to warm winds, sunny skies and the smell of fresh cut grass. The daffodils and tulips have recently bloomed and we are just starting with the yard work that comes with the warmer weather.  Sadly, another season has started ramping up.  Tick season.

•             The best form of protection is prevention. Educating oneself about tick activity and how our behaviors overlap with tick habitats is the first step.

•             According to the NJ DOH, in 2022 Hunterdon County led the state with a Lyme disease incidence rate of 426 cases per 100,000 people. The fact is ticks spend approximately 90% of their lives not on a host but aggressively searching for one, molting to their next stage or over-wintering. This is why a tick remediation program should be implemented on school grounds where NJ DOH deems high risk for tick exposure and subsequent attachment to human hosts.

•             Governor Murphy has signed a bill that mandates tick education in NJ public schools. See this for the details.  Tick education must now be incorporated into K-12 school curriculum. See link:

•             May is a great month to remind the public that tick activity is in full swing. In New Jersey, there are many tickborne diseases that affect residents, including Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, Powassan, and Spotted Fever Group Rickettsiosis.

•             For years, the focus has mainly been about protecting ourselves from Lyme disease. But other tick-borne diseases are on the rise in Central Jersey. An increase of incidence of Babesia and Anaplasma are sidelining people too. These two pathogens are scary because they effect our blood cells. Babesia affects the red blood cells and Anaplasma effects the white blood cells.

•             Ticks can be infected with more than one pathogen. When you contract Lyme it is possible to contract more than just that one disease. This is called a co-infection. It is super important to pay attention to your symptoms. See link.
