How long does it take to Detox my body?

How long does it take to Detox my body?

This is a super fantastic question. And one that no one ever asks but it happens to be the most integral part of a persons health. grin emoticon

The simple answer is without doing anything extra to detox and just eating a clean diet it would take an equal amount of years of your poor eating habits to naturally allow you body to detox 100% of the bad eating effects on your body. So if you ate bad for 22 years your natural unassisted detox time of just clean eating is 22 years. 

However, (and this is the awesome part) it can be done faster. Im not going to tell you it will take only a month because that is completely unrealistic. Its gonna take time, it just doesn't have to take 22 years. Yes Im aware of the picture I posted saying 21 day detox challenge. There is a such thing. Let me explain...

Now, you can go medium speed (recommended) or full speed (this one is harsh but still worth it).

Medium speed is a constant rotation of the 21 day detox challenge schedule. The full speed is the same program on a much longer time frame like 6 months to a year and possibly more depending on the health circumstance for the individual. 

So what is the 21 day detox challenge? 

The reason its done in a full cycle of 21 days is that it takes at least 21 days to form a habit. After the 3 weeks are over the 4th week becomes a resting period which you must very gently introduce your body to the food you were eating prior. 

Understand this...Detoxing is NOT fun. Trust me I would know. It can even be extremely painful because your body is getting rid of serious toxins and kicking real addictions to food that have caused a serious chemical reaction and addiction in your body. This is not going to be easy but it is going to be worth it. At the end you'll come out of it renewed and refreshed and with a jumpstarted set of organs systems that are very happy and functioning at full capacity. This is ultimately what you want. 

What is the 21 day program?

Each week is the same for all 3 weeks. The first 2 days are raw vegan food. comprised of mostly greens and sprouts with raw soups and raw vegan crackers. The next 2 days are green juice days. Its just juice all day for both days. The remaining days of the week are just like the first two  days. On these non juice days you can add a raw vegan soup to the menu and seed cheese. You may have half of an avocado a day but bare in mind that you should refrain from any avocados or nuts during this period as the fats in these foods greatly slow the process of detox. On the program you must drink 32 oz of rejuvilac probiotic drink everyday and half your weight in ounces of water. 

Calculation for water intake is as follows...

Example: If you are 160lbs divide by 2 = 80lbs. So you must intake 80 ounces of water each day in addition to your 32 ounces of rejuvilac probiotic drink. The 32 ounces of probiotic is additional to your water intake and does not count towards your water intake. (yes you are going to A LOT!) This is the process of detox. 

Coffee enemas are also routinely done during this program and are absolutely necessary to detox. Without it toxins that are shedding from organ systems get stuck in your intestines and colon and cause major problems.

What is NOT allowed during the detox?

Anything that is not raw vegan, Oils (of any kind), salt, and pepper. These things slow down the process of detox badly and so should not be consumed at all during detox. 

Transitioning out of the 21 day program..

Coming out of the program you'll feel so fresh and light. Your skin will be glowing and you'll be all to excited to eat as you were before....DON'T! This detox is a hard reset for your body if you dive to hard into food right after you can make yourself very sick to your stomach, so don't do that. You need to ease into it. I recommend that for 3 days after you've ended the detox you do a 3 day refresh to smoothly transition you back into the more normal eating patterns. 

3 day Refresh?

The 3-Day Refresh is 3-day program of specially formulated shakes, healthy snacks, and delicious, easy-to-prepare meals that have been scientifically designed to help support your metabolism while nourishing your vital organs. This is a good transition back into normal eating patterns. Plus, you actually get to eat delicious, real food during this program.

What does one eat and drink while Refreshing?

FILTERED WATER: In addition to the water you use in your shakes and teas, you will continue to drink
at least half your body weight in ounces of filtered water each day. 

BREAKFAST: A superfood-packed Shakeology shake, plus one fruit option

MORNING TEA: 1 cup of unsweetened herbal or green tea

LATE MORNING: Fiber Sweep, a digestive health drink

LUNCH: Vanilla Fresh shake, plus 1 option from the Fruit List, 1 option from the Vegetable List, and 1 option from the Healthy Fats list (list is in the booklet that comes in the packet)

AFTERNOON SNACK: 1 option from Vegetable List, and 1 option from the Healthy Fats list

AFTERNOON TEA: 1 cup of unsweetened herbal tea (caffeine-free)

DINNER: Vanilla Fresh shake, 1 option from the Dinner Recipes, and 1 cup of organic vegetable broth (optional)

EVENING TEA: 1 cup of unsweetened herbal tea (caffeine-free)  

 
 Woohoo! You finished!

Your transition is complete. You eat your normal Plant based diet as per the usual. 

As I stated in the beginning, a proper detox will be done alternately at least 6 times in a given year for at least 2 years. By this time you body will have completely reset itself....yep 100% reset. Ain't you glad it didn't take more than a decade?
