Your detox phase is Easy as 1, 2, 3:
• Step 1 – Cut – You “Cut” the foods that bloat
• Step 2 – Clean – You add the “Clean” foods & supplements to cleanse
• Step 3 – Flush – You “Flush” the toxins with H 2O
Important Note: Extend your Detox Phase to 14 days (instead of 7) if one or more of these describes you:
• You Have 50 lbs or more to lose
• You drink alcohol beverages 3+ times per week
• You are a smoker
Step 1 – Cut – “Cut” the foods & drinks that cause bloating
Below is a list of foods & drinks that cause water retention:
• Gluten
(found in most bread products)
• Soy
• Cheese & Yogurt
• Refined Sugar
‡
• Sugar Sweeteners
(besides Stevia)
• Salt
• Grains (just for 7 days)
• Soda Pop (diet & regular)
• Alcohol
• Coffee & Tea
if you experience headaches you can have
one cup of coffee or tea in the morning
• Also Cut Exercise (just for 7 days) ‡
Exercise can cause inflammation. Your goal in the detox phase is to clean your body and flush your system
and remove as much inflammation as possible. This is best accomplished by not exercise in the 7 day detox
phase (light exercises like walking 30-45 minutes at a time is fine during the detox)
Step 2 – Clean – Add the “Clean” foods & supplements to cleanse your body
