We were in Puerto Rico for 10 days over the holidays. Here is a group shot taken by my BIL. This was at El Yunque National Park. We also took a fun boat ride to snorkel and kayaked in the bioluminescent bay and had lots of group dinners, swam in caves and rivers as well as beach time! Now we are back in -12 degree F weather!

✨In order to detoxify from environmental toxins or endotoxins produced inside the body, one must have clear pathways to elimination.

✨The primary pathways for toxin elimination in our human bodies are peeing, pooping and sweating. That is basically it.

💛So when I have a patient recovering from Lyme, I make sure that they are peeing, pooping and sweating.

💩When I have a patient recovering from mold and mycotoxin exposure, I make sure that they are peeing, pooping and sweating.

💦When I have a patient showing signs of toxin exposure whether or not they are cognizant of that (medical history, environmental exposure i.e. living near a train derailment or fire that has dumped pollutants into the air and water) I make sure that they are peeing, pooping and sweating.

🎯So let’s break it down. Everyone ideally should be having a good bowel movement at least once per day.

💦💛Everyone should be drinking plenty of good clean water, - at least 64 oz per day, preferably with some trace minerals in it, to stay hydrated and flush the kidneys.

💦Everyone also should be exercising to sweating several times per week , or sauna-ing several times per week so that they are also eliminating through their skin cells and pores.

💥Without these things happening, the fanciest and most expensive supplements won’t work as well.

🥦Diet should be as organic as possible to eliminate pesticides and herbicide accumulation. I once read a study that measured pesticide and herbicide levels in a family’s blood before and after they ate completely organic for 2 weeks and their serum pesticide levels went way down! After just 2 weeks. So you can improve quickly!

❓❓Do you need to do fancy cleanses with special supplements? No, usually not. Making sure your elimination channels are open and your detox pathways are working us usually enough unless there is something unusual going on like a particular toxic exposure or infection. Sometimes for example we need to support hormonal metabolism by supporting the liver but usually we cleanse on our own. We are designed as humans to cleanse ourselves by peeing pooping and sweating!

🎯And furthermore, if you aren’t peeing, pooping and sweating, those fancy supplements won’t work anyhow. So P*e, P**p and Sweat first, then add the detox cleanses and supplements. 💛💩💦

👀🦋Will I Ever Get to Eat Whatever Foods I Want Again?
👉🏼I get this question a lot

✨Often while on a healing journey patients change up their foods and eliminate certain types of foods from their lives. This may be gluten, sugar, dairy, fermentable carbohydrates, etc. depending upon what is going on for them and what we are treating.

✨Sometimes we restrict for a period of time whole classes of foods.

✨This isn’t of course the end goal, to live with a highly restricted diet.

✨But I often get asked once patients are feeling better when they can go back to “normal”. Well, first define “normal”.

💥If your previous food plan included wine, gluten, refined carbohydrates, and other inflammatory foods, you may never get back to full non-restriction if you want to hold your gains.

💥If you have celiac disease, you may never eat gluten again if you want to remain in a good place that you worked so diligently to get to.

🦋But some foods can be experimented with, and maybe you can have a small amount every 4 days without ill effect, but it may not be good to have something every day all the time,

🦋For instance I have some patients who abstain from garlic and onions while we are treating SIBO, and sometimes they can have it again later, other patients feel better and hold their gains when they stay away from it.

👀💥Pollution Support
👉🏼Important info even if you don’t live near East Palestine, Ohio

⚡️If you follow the news at all you will have read about the train derailment and subsequent fire putting tons of burning toxins into the air in East Palestine, Ohio.

⚡️This happens to be about an hour away from where my son goes to college, so you can bet that I got some great supplements and a high end air purifier to him as quickly as I could.

💥 💥According to the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency the primary chemicals that were spilled were Vinyl chloride and butyl acrylate. Also in the mix were benzene, ethyl hexyl acrylate and ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, also known carcinogens.

👉🏼I will break down the main 2 so that you get an idea what has been released.

💥Vinyl chloride
Vinyl chloride is a colorless, odorless gas that is used to make PVC, a form of plastic used in many everyday objects.
However, vinyl chloride is also a known carcinogen and can cause negative impacts depending on the time and amount of exposure. It can cause headaches and nausea, or lead to serious conditions like liver cancer.

💥Butyl acrylate
Butyl acrylate is a colorless liquid with a fruit-like odor. It is used in the making of polymers, resins and paints.
Exposure can lead to irritation of the nose and eyes, nausea, vomiting and allergic reactions, according to the New Jersey Department of Health. Repeated exposure can cause lung cancer.
According to the EPA's disclosure about the train's cargo, an entire load of Butyl acrylate was lost in the crash to spills and fire.

⚡️While those of us west of the spill may think we are safe from any fallout to our air and water, the truth is that there are tons of chemicals being released into the atmosphere and we are all getting exposure.

💥It is important to be proactive and protect yourselves and your family from all of the chemicals in our environment these days.

👀🎈Bloating
👉🏼What to do when your belly feels inflated


🎈Many of my patients complain of gas and bloating as a symptom of SIBO and IBS.

🎈While making some adustments to food and especially reducing Fermentable Carbohydrates can help, there are times when it happens and you need a good rescue strategy.

1. Ginger – ginger helps the motility and also nausea. It can help to move gas through your system.
2. Mint – mint can also stimulate the gall bladder to release bile which aids digestion. Can also be useful for gas and bloating, but would caution using this with peptic ulcer disease.
3. Activated Charcoal- this is used as a binder to remove toxins so helpful for food poisoning sometimes, and it also absorbs gas so may help with bloating.
4. Digestive enzymes – these can also help break down foods so aids in transit.
5. Fennel Seeds– fennel seeds also are “carminative” and can help move gas through and relieve bloating.

🎈 🎈For a really bad episode you may also consider a heating pad.
