Q & A on our Autumn Cleanse
How long is the cleanse and what does it entail?
My two week cleanse is not a fast, but an elimination diet focused on supporting all the organs of detox: liver, digestion, skin and lungs. It involves using a protein powder/smoothie mix which is power packed with nutrients to help your body detox. I also recommend a specific diet that eliminates all the big possible food allergens and a few important daily activities to help your body along- things like sauna, castor oil pack, herbal tea drinking, etc.
Is it safe to do while trying to get pregnant?
Some of you wondered if this would be safe to do while trying to conceive and the answer is yes. Its is not only safe, but actually a great way to prepare the body for healthy pregnancy.
How is it going to effect my energy level?
Others have wondered if they could do the cleanse and still work – worrying about energy. Except for the first 2-3 days while the body is eliminating the excesses of our usual diets, many people find they have more balanced energy throughout the day. Unlike some fasts, this cleanse includes three meals a day and helps to balance blood sugar, which is one of the ways that energy is increased.
What is the cost?
Here is how it breaks down:
- Introductory class Saturday Sept 29th- FREE

I hope you will join us! The start date for your cleanse can be anytime after the class on Saturday, Sept 29th.
