Do I need to DETOX???
Just like dusting your furniture and cleaning your bathrooms, the human body needs to be cleaned, too. Especially if you have a diet that includes packaged foods, hydrogenated fats and oils, white flour and sugar, or if you are exposed to:

- Fertilizers & Garden pesticides
- Vehicle fumes
- Dust
- Mold
- Mildew
- Animal dander
- Electrical devices
- Household cleaners
- Photocopiers
- Pollution
- Smog or Smoke
- Heavy metals
- Paint fumes
- Dry cleaned clothing
- Rain
Here is a checklist of symptoms to signal it may be time for a reliable “body cleaning”
* Do you experience fatigue or low energy levels?
