Toxins are all around us—found in our food, water, medications, skincare products, household items, and even the air we breathe. When the body becomes overloaded or stagnant, these toxins can get trapped in tissues, fat, and organs, potentially leading to various health issues. A cleanse can help your body process and eliminate these toxins more effectively. It’s an effective RESET tool.
As we transition out of winter, a 14-day cleanse can help remove toxins, boost energy levels, and refresh the body. Here’s to a healthier, revitalized you this spring!
Benefits of Detoxification:
- Jumpstart weight loss
- Improve skin health
- Boost energy levels
- Reduce cravings and regulate appetite
- Enhance nutrient absorption
- Support gut health
- Balance blood sugar and metabolism
- Improve sleep quality
How to Cleanse
Choose your preferred 14-day Designs for Health cleanse (Chocolate or Strawberry Vanilla) and follow this flexible daily routine:
- Drink two shakes per day – one for breakfast and one for dinner.
- Enjoy one balanced meal, preferably at lunch, but this can vary depending on your needs.
- Take supplement packets with breakfast and dinner.
How to Prepare a Delicious Shake
- Get a shaker bottle or NutriBullet type blender –keep your shakes cold.
- Customize your shake with these ingredients:
- Frozen fruit (berries, peaches, pineapple, cherries)
- Banana or dates for natural sweetness
- Healthy fats (flax, chia, avocado, shredded coconut, pumpkin seeds)
- Non-dairy milk (coconut, oat, flax, hemp, pea, almond)
- Flavor boosters (ginger, cinnamon, lemon, cocoa powder, maca, mushroom powder, apple)
- Blend and enjoy!
- If you feel great and want to extend the cleanse, you can continue for an additional 14 days to maximize the benefits. To continue feeling great, many people continue a “half detox” for another month using just one shake and one packet of detox capsules each day.
Additional Guidelines
- Healthy snacks are allowed (think fruit, nuts, veggies, hummus, and unsweetened nut butters).
- Additional food with each shake is also permitted. Perhaps eggs for breakfast and a big salad for dinner, along with the shakes.
- Avoid sugar, artificial sweeteners, gluten, dairy, alcohol, soy, fried foods, and peanuts.
What’s in the Supplement Packets?
- Detox Antiox – Promotes safe toxin elimination with amino acids and antioxidants. Take one capsule twice daily (breakfast and dinner).
- Amino Detox – Supports liver and gall bladder (replacing the missing enzymes if you don’t have one) function and optimal detoxification. Each packet contains three capsules, taken twice daily.
