Another gentle heads-up during the cleanse 🌻

Around this point, it’s common for bowel patterns to change. Some people notice bloating or even constipation. When you suddenly increase fiber and healthy fats—especially if your body isn’t used to them—it can feel like things get a little… jammed up.

This can be normal, but it’s definitely not pleasant.
A few important reminders:

🌻Know your p**p. Stool consistency, frequency, and ease of passing are powerful signs of health and clues to what your body is doing.

🌻Eat enough. You need adequate calories and volume to actually fill the bowel and trigger a good movement.
Water matters. You need no less than 74 oz of pure water daily, with an ideal goal closer to 110 oz. There’s no need to force a full gallon.

🌻Temperature matters. Drinking warm water instead of cold can increase peristaltic activity, which improves the likelihood and consistency of bowel movements. #
🌻Food matters. The only way to truly cleanse is to fuel your body with the foods listed in the book. Without the right foods, toxins can’t be properly packaged up and excreted.

🌻Fiber needs support. Fiber works best when paired with adequate fluids and healthy fats.

If you’re struggling, please let us know. Sometimes the body needs a little assistance, and we do have a couple of gentle supplement options available in the office.
✨ Smooth Move tea can also be helpful for some people.
You’re not doing this wrong—your body is adapting. We’re here to help. 🌻

🌻Rooted in Healing, Together – Challenge🌻

This photo says it all.
See how gelatinous this bone broth is? That’s not just pretty—it’s powerful.
Organic, homemade bone broth is one of the most foundational healing foods you can include, especially when your body is under stress, inflamed, depleted, or repairing. When broth cools and gels like this, it tells us we’ve extracted what the body is actually looking for.

🌻Gelatin & collagen to support gut lining integrity
🌻Glycine & proline for tissue repair, detox pathways, and nervous system support
🌻Minerals (calcium, magnesium, phosphorus) in a form the body recognizes
🌻Joint, bone, skin & connective tissue support
🌻Immune support during healing and recovery
🌻Deeply nourishing, calming, and grounding for the body

The part that most people miss:
Bone broth is not a quick recipe.
True bone broth must be made slow and low.
This means:
• Organic bones (always)
• A splash of acid (like apple cider vinegar)
• Very low heat—never a rolling boil
• Time… and lots of it
👉 A real bone broth takes days, not hours.
This is how minerals are gently pulled from the bone and collagen is preserved—not destroyed. This is how you should get collagen…not from powders or supplements.
Rushing this process or boiling aggressively breaks down what we’re trying to heal with.

In this challenge, we come back to the basics. Bone broth is not a fad, we have been recommending it for decades.

âś…Food that takes time.
âś…Food that nourishes deeply.
âś…Food that reminds the body how to heal.
This is Rooted in Healing, Together 🌻

A huge thank you to the Olivers for the elk bones, the Gathmanns, Paul, and Jasper for prepping them, and the Busings for making the broth. We couldn’t do this without you.

Simple. Intentional. Foundational.

Days 1–7 of the 21-Day Purification can feel hard — and here’s why.
We’ve had many patients asking if they need more protein during the first week because of how they’re feeling — so we want to address this clearly as part of the 🌻Rooted in Healing, Together Challenge🌻
If you’re feeling tired, weak, headachy, foggy, or experiencing cravings during Days 1–7, it’s not because you’re lacking protein.
Your body is shifting into gluconeogenesis — learning to efficiently make glucose from stored fuel instead of relying on constant incoming carbs. That transition can feel uncomfortable, but it’s a metabolic adjustment, not starvation.
✨ Important reminder:
You are getting plenty of protein during this program.
And if you still feel like you need more support?
👉 Simply add another SP Complete shake.
Listening to your body is part of healing.
This process is about metabolic flexibility, liver support, and resetting pathways, not deprivation. The discomfort is temporary, and the benefits are lasting.
🌻Keep going. We’re rooting for you.

Papaya and citrus (from our tree) smoothie this morning. A little out of the normal recipe. But we do use these cups just about every morning and think of you guys and send our love and prayers. đź’• Cheers to our day 3.

This was texted to me this morning so I thought we should share. So many patients are doing the 🌻Rooted in Healing, Together -Challenge🌻 and I love hearing how things are going for all of you. We are all in this together, and seeing what others are eating/drinking can be so inspiring.

We are not all doing the exact same thing, and we might not be on the same day, but keep sharing because we all need support. A true cleanse and lifestyle change is not easy, but it is so worth it. Stay true to the plan and stay true to yourself! Your hard work and dedication will pay off in the end.

Garbanzo bean sweet potato curry soup has been a favorite for us for a very long time. We added chicken to this because I have to have more protein. Homemade bone broth is a great base for this soup! I would love to see and hear about what you are eating! Let’s keep inspiring one another!

It feels so good to be back in the office this week! Oh how I missed my people! Our Breitenbach Chiropractic family has inspired, humbled, and blessed us in so many ways during this journey that we have been chosen to walk. Your cards, food, car rides, help at the office, and prayers have been so healing!

We have a new employee that will be helping Jen when she has to be away or just needs more support at the office. Don’t be surprised if Jarka answers the phone or greets you at the door. We hope this addition will make it so we can support you even better!

Our goal is for you to feel like nothing has changed…we are your biggest supporters. We want you to be healed from the inside out…heart, soul, mind, and body. Chiropractic is about whole body health, along with whole food and standardized herbal nutrition! We cannot deny that I am doing so well because of Standard Process, MediHerb, and an extremely clean whole food diet. We have not deviated from the supplements we know and love.

Don’t forget to drop me a message, in any form, if you are doing the 🌻Rooted in Healing, Together - Challenge🌻. I don’t want you to miss out on the drawing! You can start anytime in January.

What does prep look like at your house? It can get messy, but if you do a week worth in one day you only have to deal with the mess once! You will also have food on hand so you don’t “just grab” something.

Are you going to do one of the challenge options?

Why we only sell whole food supplements?

You wouldn’t fuel your body with processed junk food…
so why would you do that with supplements?
If you care about eating real, whole foods—foods grown in soil, nourished by sun, and prepared with intention—your supplements should follow the same rules.
Whole-food supplements are exactly that: food.

âś…Not synthetic isolates.
âś…Not chemically altered compounds.
âś…Not something engineered in a lab.

Your body recognizes nutrients best when they come the way nature intended—bound together in their natural form, working synergistically, just like they do in real food. When nutrients are stripped down, synthesized, and recombined, the body often has to work harder to process them—especially the liver.

Read the labels.
Ask where the ingredients come from. Where is the farm?
If it sounds like chemistry instead of agriculture, it’s worth questioning.

This is a huge part of the 🌻Rooted in Healing, Together Challenge. 🌻

If this resonates, start by choosing one thing—food or supplements—to make a little more real today🌻

Are you ready? Start weaning off of caffeine and sugar, if you haven’t already. Start prepping this weekend by making some salad dressings, get your veggies and fruits washed, and clean out the pantry and refrigerator so you won’t have temptations. If possible, avoid the “one last treat” mentality today and tomorrow. You have got this!

🌻Rooted in Healing, Together - Challenge🌻
Dr. Eric and I have supported thousands of patients over multiple decades during the Standard Process 21 day purification. This year it is going to look a little bit different for us. I am not able to do a liver detox right now but I am doing so much to support my body; all of the things that we have been teaching over the last 30 years. Nothing processed, nothing synthetic, no chemicals in food or supplements. No added sugars. Lots of water. Gentle movement. Prayer and meditation. I don’t think I have it in me to cook creatively for Dr Eric during this cleanse, so he may or may not participate in the true cleanse…he might do it Jen’s style.

What we are asking form you this go around, is to support us while we support you. Join in this challenge in whatever way you can. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but we would love as much participation as possible.

Let’s make January 2026 one to remember. Fill this community with healing energy.

She already knows the good stuff.
This little one loves her Standard Process supplements and her gentle adjustments ❤️
We truly believe the body thrives when it’s supported early, simply, and intentionally.
We’re steadfast Standard Process practitioners because quality matters.
If you’re mindful about avoiding synthetic oils and processed foods, why would supplements be any different?
🌱 Keep it simple.
🌱 Read the labels.
🌱 Choose supplements grown on a farm — not made in a lab.
This is all part of our Rooted in Healing, Together — CHALLENGE.
One of the pieces to the challenge? Zero synthetic, chemically made, or ultra-processed ingredients in your food and supplements. Supporting your liver means giving it what it recognizes best: real nourishment.
Healing is better when we do it together 🌻
