🚫 Before You Jump Into Another Fad Detox… Read This. 🚫
Every influencer is shouting about “detoxing” right now — juice cleanses, extreme fasting, powders, potions, you name it.
But here’s the truth most people never hear:
Many bodies are not ready to detox — and certain trendy detoxes can actually make things worse.
Take juice cleanses, for example 👇
They’re often loaded with natural sugars that spike blood sugar, trigger inflammation, and lead to major energy crashes.
And here’s the big reality check:
Juicing does not pull toxins out of your cells or tissues.
In some cases, it stirs things up in the wrong way.
Why this matters:
God designed the body brilliantly. When toxins can’t be safely eliminated, the body protects you by storing them deep in tissues, fat, muscle, and even bone.
But if your internal barriers (gut, brain, etc.) are compromised, releasing toxins into the bloodstream too quickly can lead to serious symptoms.
Side note: If you’re dealing with osteoporosis, it’s extra important to preserve bone integrity while keeping your barriers healthy. When bones break down, they can release stored toxins, which can trigger systemic inflammation. Talk to us about strategies to protect your bones while supporting safe detox.
So before doing ANY detox, it’s essential to ensure:
✨ Gut + brain barriers are supported
✨ Drainage pathways are open (liver, gallbladder, kidneys, lymph, colon, skin)
✨ The nervous system is regulated — not stuck in fight-or-flight
At Health Within Chiropractic, we help prepare your body the right way:
• Vagus nerve support
• BrainTap for nervous system balance
• Emotional release techniques
• Chiropractic adjustments with Dr. Scott Ketterling
Step one: open the drains.
Supportive products like AF Beta Food, Livaplex, Detox 1 & 2, Takesumi, and others help the liver, gallbladder, lymph, and detox pathways function properly.
Step two: remove unwanted visitors.
Once drainage is open and the body is ready, we can use targeted herbals and products to help safely remove:
• Parasites
• Fungal/yeast/candida
• Bacterial overgrowth
• Mold
• Toxic hormones
• Chemicals
• Plastics
• Pharmaceuticals
• Heavy metals
If you’re considering a detox before the new year, do it intentionally — not trend-driven.
We’d be honored to create a safe, step-by-step plan for your body. 💚
