WHY WE NEED TO DETOX & LIVE? PART II – SOME GOOD TIPS TO FOLLOW:

by Dr Mecherl Lim MD (MA) Naturopath (ND) , Holistic Kinesiology

• BE A TURKEY ( A COLD ONE) AND TAKE A DRUG HOLIDAY

There is no way to handle a true physiological addition except to stop it completely. Addicts can’t have just on line of cocaine of just one drink.  Go Cold Turkey, but you won’t have to white knuckle it because if you follow – “5 Ways to Detox” you will automatically reset your body’s neurotransmitters and hormones.

Stop all form of sugar, all flour products and all artificial sweeteners.  They all cause increased cravings and slow metabolism and lead to fat storage.  This especially includes liquid sugar calories – A latte can have more sugar than a can of soda- that makes you eat more all day and drive storage of belly fat. Also get rid of anything with Trans or Hydrogenated FATS & MSG (watch hidden names).

Ideally, for 5 Days you avoid any foods that come in a box, package or can or have a label, and stick to real, whole fresh food. And the best way to really Detox is to give up all the grains for 5 days. Give up all drugs too, Caffeine, and alcohol are the 2 biggest after sugar.

• POWER UP THE DAY WITH PROTEIN.

Protein, Protein, Protein at every meal, especially breakfast, is the key to balancing blood sugar and insulin and cutting cravings.

Start the Day with whole farm eggs or a protein shake, and recommended whole food protein shake (MHT Phyto Nutri).

Use Nuts, seeds, eggs, fish, chicken or grassfeed meat for protein at every meal.  A serving is 4 to 6oz or the size of your palm.

• EAT UNLIMITED CARBOHYDRATES (the right ones).

Yes, that’s right, Unlimited Carbs.  Did you know vegetables are carbs? And you get to eat as much as you want.  Unlimited refills!  There is one Catch. I only mean the Non-starchy veggies such as greens, the broccoli families, (including cauliflowers, kale, collards ) asparagus, green beans, mushrooms, onions, zucchini, tomatoes, winter squash and beets- just for 5 days. Also skip grains and beans for 5 days. It supercharges the results so you lose weight and feel GREAT .

• FIGHT SUGAR WITH FAT

Fat is not a FOUR letter word.

Fat doesn’t make you fat, SUGAR does.

Fat makes you FULL, balances your blood sugar and is necessary for fueling  your cells.

Along with the protein, have good fats at every meal and snack including nuts and seeds, which also contain protein, extra virgin olive oil, coconut butter, avocados and Omega 3 fats from fish.

• USE FRIEND POWER , NOT WILL POWER

Extraordinary new research shows that obesity is contagious.  You are more likely to be overweight if your friends are overweight than if your parents or siblings are overweight.

But Health is contagious too.  In large social experiment, I did with my friend Rick Warren and Saddle Back, we got people to lose weight in a year by doing the program together.  They met in groups, helped, loved and support each other and those who did it together lost twice as much weight and get twice as Healthy.  I call it the LOVE DIET, everybody Needs as a BUDDY.

Find friends or form a small group and do the 5 DAYS DETOX & LIVE together.

WHY WE NEED TO DETOX & LIVE?

by Dr Mecherl Lim MD (MA) Naturopath (ND) , Holistic Kinesiology

Over the last 25 years, I‘ve taken care of patients who suffered from harmful effects of the wrong food’s industrial, factory made science projects, boatloads of sugar & flour – 152 lbs of sugar and 146 lbs of flour per person per year, to be exact. It’s done more than make then struggle with weight and yoyo diets.

It is completely derailed their health. Worse, they blame themselves for not being able to succeed at controlling their eating habits or cravings.  Millions of us, over half the population, suffer from FLC SYNDROME. That’s when you feel Like Crap. Sometimes annoying little symptoms such as achy joints or muscles or brain fog, fatigue, headaches, allergies or gas or more serious problems such as Autoimmune disease such as Migraines, Asthma, Acne, Irritable Bowel, Reflux, Arthritis or worse. When I use the word “DETOX” I mean a scientifically designed medical detox from sugar and all things than turn to sugar.

The Fun Part is that it’s done simply by taking out the Bad Stuff and putting in the Good Stuff….lots of Good Stuff.

Maybe I should call it the Feel Good with Good Stuff Plan!!!!

5 REASONS YOU NEED TO DETOX & LIVE

1) FLC SYNDROME- FEEL LIKE CRAP

When you wake up feeling LESS than Vital, Vibrant, Alive, Joyful and Full Energy, even if you are thin but have symptoms of being TOXIC like fatigue, brain fog, achiness, digestive issues, allergies, headaches ——really any symptoms all.

The DETOX can help you quickly. Most of us don’t connect what we are eating to how we feel.

2) YOU CAN’T LOSE WEIGHT AND KEEP IT OFF

The Scientific Establishment has convinced as that weight is just a matter of calories in/calories out, that it’s about energy balance, about eating less and exercising more.

How’s that working out for you?  Probably Not So Well!!!!

Problem is, the Scientific Establishment is different from the established Science.  The Science says Sugar & Flour Calories are way different.

First, they trigger addiction and overeating.

Second, they spike insulin and inflammation, which make you store BELLY FAT and blocks your ability to feel full. The Verdict is in Sugar Calories that are worse than whole food calories.  Sugar spike insulin and triggers inflammation, a double whammy guaranteed to mess up any attempt at long term weight loss.

3) YOU CAN’T CONTROL YOUR SUGAR AND CARBS CRAVINGS (you may be suffering from addictions)

The fact is that sugar and flour are biologically addictive.  The science behind, it is clear and conclusive. Yet we blame the FAT PERSON for being lazy glutton which leads to shame and guilt.

I am here to tell you it’s not your FAULT.  Your Biology has been hijacked by the food industry.  They have done a hostile takeover of your taste buds, brain chemistry, hormones and metabolism.  More than 300 Food Industry insiders spilled the beans to Micheal Moss in his book, SALT, SUGAR & FAT, explaining they hire “Craving Experts” to create the “Bass Point” of junk food to create “Heavy Users” and increase their “Stomach Share”.  Sugar is the new Nicotine.  In fact, Sugar is eight times more addictive than cocaine.  If you are trying to use will power to Lose Weight you will fail.  You have to use science to unhook yourself from substances (or NON FOOD JUNK).

4) YOU NEVER DETOXED

Most of us have never in our life taken 5 or 10 days Detox or put nothing in our body but delicious, whole clean food.  Just 5 Days, even you think you are healthy and feel good, you may not realize that you normal state is not your Optimal State. Think of it as a tune up, a super quick, super easy way to supercharge your health.

5) YOU NEED A STAYCATION

All of us stray from living in a way that supports our health either too little sleep, too little exercise , too much bad food, too much stress, not enough time for ourselves. The Best way to reset your Age is a 5 Days Detox, Simple, delicious food, No toxin or drugs, by which I mean sugar, flour, processed foods, caffeine, or alcohol.  Self-Nurturing practises, deep breathing, sleeping 7 to 8 hours a night, a little exercise , Self love.  All this works to get your Body and Mind back to their original factory setting- and quickly!

So now that you know why you need A DETOX, how do you do it without pain and suffering? How do you take a shortcut to feeling, great?

Here’s the little secret that the diet and food industry, the medical establishment and Big Pharma don’t want you to know.  Most of us are only a few day away from Health and Happiness.  Even if you have already a bad case of FLC SYNDROME or even chronic disease. Food is the most powerful medicine on the planet to fix it.

Stop, Reverse, Prevent…

by Dr Mecherl Lim MD (MA) Naturopath (ND) , Holistic Kinesiology

Two things have become increasingly apparent:

  1. We are exposed to a more complex array of toxic compounds in our air, water, and food than ever before.
  2. It has been recognized that an individual’s ability to detoxify or bio-transform and excrete toxic substances is of critical importance to overall health.

Detoxification (Detox) in the context of alternative medicine consists of the approach to rid the body of accumulated harmful substances that allegedly exert undesirable effects on health in the short and long term.
