She goes on to talk about how she starts off most of her patients with a detox diet to get them to feel better and healthier. Patients will report to have detox symptoms such as headaches and fatigue during the initial stage but after a week, some report having weight loss, feeling much more healthier, and a desire to continue eating healthy.

The diet under her standards consist of eating organic and raw vegetables and fruits. Also, eating foods high in fiber, your essential fats, and antioxidants such as berries (goji berries would be a good selection) that are low sugar are great for this diet. Most of her patients really enjoy the smoothie recipe (with flax oil and ground flaxseeds). A probiotic supplement is suggested to increase the friendly bacteria in the intestines.

Here is an example of what kind of diet she would recommend her patients.

Sample Breakfast

Sample Lunch & Dinner

A Sample Lunch and dinner should be:

1. Low in starch carbohydrates
2. Consist of More vegetables, double the size of your palm in quantity as a rule of thumb.
3. The palm of your hand should be a guide for the quantity of protein (non-starchy).

A Large Raw Salad followed by some protein (i.e. fish) is a great combo for dinner/lunch.

Some people will even lose weight as a result of cleansing the body of toxins. She feels that the solution to pollution is dilution. Many people feel a significant difference, especially for those that have been eating horribly, after the detox diet.

Headaches and fatigue can result during the initial detox diet. This is a good sign as it shows that your body is downloading all the toxins and eliminating them from your body.

The detox diet is more than just a diet, it is more like a lifestyle.
