🌿 Detox Quick Guide
Simple Daily Swaps to Reduce Chemical Exposure
💧 Water
Drink filtered water daily
Store in glass or stainless steel (not plastic)
Avoid heating food/drinks in plastic containers
🥦 Food
Wash produce well; peel when possible
Buy organic "Dirty Dozen" if on budget
Minimize ultra-processed foods and additives
🌬️ Air
Open windows daily for ventilation
Add air-purifying plants (snake plant, peace lily)
Avoid synthetic air fresheners and candles
🧽 Cleaning
Use vinegar, baking soda, and castile soap instead of harsh chemicals
Skip bleach/ammonia unless medically needed
Microfiber cloths for dusting to trap particles
🧴 Personal Care
Choose fragrance-free or low-ingredient lotions, soaps, shampoos
Switch deodorant to a natural or unscented version
Simplify: fewer products = fewer exposures
🍳 Cooking & Storage
Replace Teflon with cast iron or stainless steel pans
Store leftovers in glass jars or containers
Avoid single-use plastics when possible
🏡 Home & Laundry
Use wool dryer balls instead of scented dryer sheets
Choose natural fibers (cotton, linen) for clothing and bedding
Grow herbs or sprouts at home for fresh, living foods
🌱 Support Detox Naturally
Nutrition: Eat cruciferous veggies (broccoli, kale, cabbage) and fiber-rich foods
Hydration: Drink mineralized, clean water daily
Movement: Walk, stretch, or gently sweat to support lymph flow
Rest: Prioritize deep sleep for body repair
Faith & Mind: Prayer, gratitude, and time in nature support peace and healing
🚨 When to Seek Care
Sudden shortness of breath, severe rashes, or neurological changes after exposure → urgent care
Ongoing fatigue, new neurological symptoms, or worsening allergies → consult a clinician
🌸 Encouragement
Detox is a journey of small swaps, not perfection. God designed your body with the wisdom to cleanse and heal when given the right environment.
