The cleanse is over…but it’s just the beginning!

Well, I officially finished the cleanse on Thursday.  I lost a good 6.5 lbs, and regained energy that I had been lacking since the birth of our son over a year ago.  I was pleasantly surprised at how easy to follow it was and how fast the three weeks went by.  Although my diet as well as our family’s diet has always been very clean and healthy, there is always room for improvement.  So, it is just the beginning.  The entire point of doing a cleanse is not to do and go back to your old habits.  It is to cleanse the major systems of your body and adopt better habits.  Now that you have encouraged your body to function more efficiently ask yourself what you can take from this to carry forward.  Whether it is eating breakfast or snacking more frequently during the day with nutrient rich foods, make this the beginning.  If after the cleanse you are still experiencing unwanted symptoms, you may have underlying toxicity problems going on that require further investigating and testing.  Be sure to talk with Dr. Steve or myself about the toxicity testing and customized nutrition programs that we do.  Always remember first and foremost to get your regular corrective chiropractic adjustments.  Without a healthy functioning nervous system your diet, exercise, and emotional health will never benefit your body to reach it’s God-given health potential.  Stay the course and make your chiropractic adjustments your number one health priority!
