Hello! Happy Wednesday! I hope you are enjoying the week so far. The pilot is off work today (wahoo!), so I’m looking forward to F45 and brunch together, as well as recording a podcast episode for this blog post.
Spring is the perfect time for EquiLife 7 Day Detox, and I’d love to invite you to join the fun. Now is the perfect time for a lean start and reset.
When you hear the word “detox,” you may be immediately and rightfully turned off.
Many detoxes are… well, terrible.
They are not designed for a purpose, although they are often marketed as products to help you lose weight quickly and the main aim is to drink (often sugary) liquids for a few days before moving on with your life. I have done a few juice cleanses with popular brands in the past. I usually didn’t last long, and usually left me feeling drained, exhausted, and hungry. And even if I did manage to lose a few pounds, they never stayed off for long (it was all water weight anyway).
This is completely different. I’ve done it before with amazing results, and I’m ready to do it again. My body was craving a little “reset”. I’ve been indulging in sugar and processed foods more often than usual lately, and I’ve noticed a dip in the appearance of my skin and my energy levels. It’s time to start my way back to my normal, sustainable habits with this little nudge.
I’d love to make it a community if you want to join! (It would be so amazing to see 250 friends doing this and supporting each other along the way!) 
7 days Dr. Cabral EquiLife Detox:
Here’s more on that 7 day detox:
– It is a liver based detox to help reset your body, provide a break from digesting heavy foods, and potentially help your body remove toxins we accumulate from our environment. Contains functional medicine ingredients and Ayurvedic herbs to support phase 1 and 2 liver detoxification.
– Focuses on nutrition. It includes the POWERHOUSE Daily Nutritional Support powder (which I’ve had in my smoothies for the past two months and I’ve noticed a difference in how I feel when I drink this smoothie) and meal instructions for the rest of the meals. The goal is to NOT deplete your body of nutrients during the process.
– May possibly help with weight loss (although this is not a focus for me), along with me anti-aging and well-being throughout the body.
– It’s only 7 days! When I first started working with a naturopath (old days! It was like 2010), he had me do a month-long detox that was similar (but didn’t include the Ayurvedic supplements). It’s much easier to do it for 7 days and I feel like my results were even better with the extra nutritional support. (The first two days are just supplements, fruit, and smoothies, and on day 3, you add in nutrient-dense meals using their meal plan/guidelines.)
The top 6 ingredients included in the program:
1) N-acetylcysteine (NAC), which can stimulate the body’s production of glutathione
2) Glutathione, which is an antioxidant that can help heal and detoxify the liver
3) Brocophane, an antioxidant that can enhance the liver’s ability to detoxify
4) Alpha Lipoic Acid, another antioxidant that can improve detoxification
5) Triphala, a trifecta of Ayurvedic herbs that can support detoxification and digestion
6) Vitamins and minerals, to support the body and help close nutritional gaps
Each detox kit includes the following:
Daily Nutritional Support:
This one stop shop for vitamins, minerals, proteins, electrolytes and antioxidants is the heart and soul of Dr Cabral Detox. With 15 grams of vegan protein, Daily Nutritional Support provides your body with the energy and nutrition it needs on a daily basis, while your body begins to flush out harmful toxins.
FM Detox:
Using the latest research in Functional Medicine, FM Detox provides the necessary compounds to support both phases of liver detoxification. Essential amino acids, antioxidants and botanical extracts such as milk thistle help the body capture and transport toxins to the liver where they can be metabolized and removed during the second phase. Ingredients like dandelion root extract support the production of bile which aids in elimination. As a diuretic, dandelion root increases the water supplied to the liver which facilitates the elimination of toxins from the urine.
AYU Detox:
Incorporating ancient Ayurvedic healing traditions that support optimal detoxification, AM Detox helps kickstart the detoxification process. Various diuretics move water into the liver and increase the solubility of toxins. Triphala, the combination of three plants: Emblica Officinalis, Terminalia beellerica and Terminalia chebula, have been studied for their roles in gastrointestinal health. When used in combination, this powerful trio is suggested to promote the growth of beneficial gut microbes Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus, while inhibiting the growth of unwanted strains.

Things I’ve noticed since doing this detox when I started the IHP program:
– As someone who has had gallbladder problems in the past (which I was able to resolve on my own), I always like to show my liver some extra support. I don’t have any gallbladder pain anymore (I think stopping Beyond Meat helped with that too), and after a successful first detox, I know I’ll be incorporating it into my routine at least twice a year.
– My energy was a little low the first day, but the second afternoon, It felt amazing. I was energized, focused, my brain fog was gone, my skin was glowing and I felt great.
– It was a very easy month for my cycle. I have had no cramps or PMS symptoms and have learned that in the months when I am more strategic with my workouts, sleep, stress relief and diet, my cycles are smooth in the best way.
– Restores my taste buds. When I have more sugar in my diet, things like fruit and salad start to seem muted. Bringing things back to basics reawakened my senses to what I like food to taste like and I could get back to fully enjoying my meals and being present at mealtimes.
– I don’t weigh myself regularly, but I have noticed that my clothes fit better after a full detox. I felt less bloated and inflamed.
This detox is NOT for you IF:
– you have or are recovering from an eating disorder. Keep working on improving your relationship with food and your health and know that I’m cheering for you and sending you my love and support.
– you are training for a strenuous event or need to maintain an extremely active lifestyle. For days 1-2 you want to take it easy (walks, stretches, gentle yoga or nothing). If you can’t do that, you can do a modified version of the detox by eating smoothies for breakfast and lunch and then a nutrient-dense dinner in the evening. Let me know if you have any questions about how to do this!
– Do you have any health concerns that would prevent you from participating.
****As always, consult your doctor before making any fitness or diet changes. Honor your body.
