Detoxing isn't a fad. It's gaining in popularity because we're bombarded daily by many toxic substances, far more than our body is equipped to do without some extra support.

A body overwhelmed with toxins simply doesn't function properly and is one of the main reasons people don't feel well. (Even when your doctor says "everything is fine" and "your labs are normal" - they're just not looking for the right things!)

Our liver needs extra support of course, but as those toxins are being prepared to get eliminated, your gut function and what you eat play a major role in eliminating these substances.

You've all heard, "eat more fibre" but many people don't eat anywhere near the 25-40g daily recommended. Different fibres serve different roles, like sweeping the GI, can bind some wastes, and other fibres feed your microbiome, to name a few.

This research study looked at a type of fibre not often talked about, beta-glucans. It's found in mushrooms, oats, and some seeds and forms a gel-like consistency in your gut. (It's most known for help in lowering cholesterol, a whole different story.)

So if you're on a mission to better health, lowering your toxic load by avoiding exposure and helping your body eliminate them are good areas to focus on.

Here's the link to the research if want to geek out on the science details of how the mushroom and oats beta-glucans were studied to help eliminate PFOAs and PFAS found in non-stick pans, stain-resistant materials, in tap water, and some cleaning products. https://rdcu.be/ep0d0

It's a good idea to ditch those non-stick pots and pans and switch to stainless steel, oven-proof glass, cast iron, and ceramic bakeware and reduce your exposure. Make sure you've got a good water filter system too. Eating small amounts of oats and mushrooms daily might be very helpful as well.

I've never seen so many medical professionals open their eyes to what's really going on. Finally seeing the gaps in their training, and that they're not helping people like they hoped when they started their career. It's amazing to see them also shouting it to let people know now. See in comments one pharmacist's reveal. Oh, and I know other pharmacists and doctors who've been saying essentially the same thing.

Understanding the many contributing issues to how and why people get so sick challenges our beliefs that we've accepted in society, including how modern farming is done, and why our doctors, drugs, and hospitals are the only things included in our sickcare system. They've just always been this way for most of us.

Your poor health mystery symptoms started piling up and you're shuffled from one specialist to the next, all telling you everything is fine according to their labs and tests. You know your health is NOT FINE! You're not crazy -- but they keep trying to gaslight you. They actually don't know what's wrong.

Here's a new perspective you need to understand. You're not looking in the right place for answers to what's going on. The conventional medical system is educated only about compartmentalized body parts and drugs to relieve/mask symptoms. They are not trained in what supports health (eg. nutrition) and how the body works as a whole integrated system. Surprised? It explains their perspective though, doesn't it?

Our modern world is full of things that contribute to sabotaging our health, and how this shows up in everyone is what their body's gene expression is for this massive toxic load. That's what epigenetics is: the expression of impact from external things and unhealthy foods.

All these inputs are information for our cells to process, including things like food, stress, enviro chemicals, and more.

There's a lot to learn, but thankfully none of it is hard to change in your lifestyle that will help your body heal and function more normally, healthy.

Stay tuned and follow here for the launch of my program that will help guide you on the most important things to do that will require very little effort to get your health back on track so you can get back to living your best life.

In the meantime, check out this interview (in the comments) that will give you some essential insight about some of the things that have messed up society and why our sick-care system is failing you. It's very eye-opening!

Balancing nutrients in the body for optimal levels can be challenging with modern agriculture methods that offer nutrient-poor foods. Add to that loads of processed foods made with inferior ingredients, chemicals and other non-food substances, and the issue is exacerbated. Looking at Dr. Weston A Price's research, in particular for bone and teeth health, points out the importance of Vit A and Vit K2 when it comes to Vit D uptake. Without those the D can cause other mineral depletion and imbalances. Read here for more details. Comment below if you've heard about the Vit A co-factor before! Do you take supplements or use foods like organ meats, eggs, grass-fed butter, and cod liver oil to support your health?

According to Dr. Weston A. Price, a special fat-soluble vitamin in butter may help in the treatment of certain acute and chronic conditions.

For all my foodie friends, and those who care about the quality of food they eat for their health, get a load of this 😁🤓 exciting new study. (Ya ok, science-geeking out here, I know!)

It's a nutritional study to show the difference in how food is grown and raised and how it impacts the health of people. Finally!

We've known this anecdotally forever as holistic health practitioners like me see the difference when a client's health improves when they upgrade what they're eating.

The results he mentioned are mindblowing. It's the first of its kind study of the whole path from the soil to human health. ❤

If you're struggling with chronic pain, insomnia, low energy, gut and hormone issues, etc. consider this:

Toxins take a lot of energy to process and can even be damaging to cells, organs and your DNA. When your liver (your main detoxifier) is overwhelmed your body deposits them in storage elsewhere instead of eliminating them, like in fat cells.

Those non-food chemicals aren't fuel for your body to do the million jobs it's supposed to for keeping you healthy.

Unburden your body --> it's the best way to get you on the journey to healthy.
