What are toxins?

Toxins are any substances that have harmful effects on your body. Unfortunately, they are unavoidable in our world of poor diet, processed foods, high stress, and pollution. 

Toxins invade the body from three main sources: 

1. Environment (polluted air, heavy metals, pesticides, etc)
2. Personal lifestyle (fast food, cosmetics, nicotine, alcohol, etc)
3. Body’s own metabolic processes (bacterial or fungal overgrowth, stress, trauma, etc)

How do we get rid of toxins?

Normally the immune system, liver, kidneys, and gastrointestinal (GI) system work together to eliminate toxins. When the GI tract is not functioning optimally,  additional burden is placed on the liver to remove toxins. 

When toxin levels accumulate and exceed our body’s capability (primarily via the liver) to remove them,  it is termed increased toxic burden. 

Increased toxic burden may not be evident at first, but as time goes on, its effects can be seen in all body systems and can look like:

• Pain
• Inflammation
• Brain fog
• Weight gain/fat accumulation
• Fatigue
• Hormonal disruption
• Blood sugar regulation disruption
• and more…

As toxic burden overwhelms the body, it becomes difficult to feel completely well. This is why it is important to  periodically restore the body’s ability to cleanse itself and eliminate toxins.This is where the Remedy Reset program comes in.

Sometimes our body needs a boost. 

The Remedy Reset program is a science-backed and biochemistry-based programed designed to help you restore healthy detoxification and elimination functions by providing the body with the essentials to support detoxification: micronutrients, phytonutrients and clean protein. 

During the 7 day program people experience things beyond tuning up detox processes that may include: 

• Improved energy
• Better sleep
• Improved mood and mental focus
• Less bloating and GI upset
• Weight loss (fat loss)
• Better understanding of relationship and response to food

This assessment is used to evaluate the body systems and symptoms and serves as a baseline marker as well as a guide to whether you would benefit from a 7 day or 14 day Reset.

Scoring Guide

• 0 to 10: Optimal. You have a low level of toxic burden
• 11 to 50:You have a mild level of toxic burden
• 51 to 100: You have a moderate level of toxic burden
• Over 100: You have a severe level of toxic burden

If you scored under 50, you will benefit from the 7 day detox program to kickstart your journey to health and help your body remove toxins.

If you scored over 50, you may benefit from and extended version of the 7 day detox program. Consider extending the dietary guidelines and supplementation for 14-28 days.

Remedy Reset is a 7-day program designed to enhance and promote primary pathways of detoxification in the liver that helps to reset, restore, and revitalize your health.

Remedy Reset provides 3 active formulas –Core Cleanse, Remedy Multivitamin, and Daily Detox – which function synergistically to support detox pathways. These targeted nutrients enhance the detoxification of environmental pollutants, hormone disruptors and other harmful toxins.

Days 1-2: Fasting Days

• Core Cleanse: 2 Scoops AM & PM
• Multivitamin: 2 Capsules AM & PM

The first two days allow a Core Cleanse protein shake in the morning and the evening along with the Remedy Multivitamin. 

These two will serve as the foundational nutrition for the first day and allow your body a break from an influx of toxins and allow the liver to ramp up the detox process.

Although optional, it is highly recommended that you follow the guidelines to have the first two days as fast-mimicking days. 

Days 3-7: Add in Detox Friendly Foods

• Core Cleanse: 2 Scoops AM & PM

Food Reintroduction

After you complete the 7 day reset add in food groups one at a time to evaluate if any sensitivities exist.

Common symptoms of food sensitivities:

• GI distress: bloating, constipation, diarrhea, acid reflux
• Mood disturbances
• Fatigue
• Skin blemishes

If no reactions occur with 48 hours leave the food group in and add in another.

If you experience symptoms of sensitivity, remove the food group for another 3 weeks then try to add back in.

I recommend completing a Reset program once every 6-12 months.
