Are You Ready to Reboot Your Health?

Jul 17, 2020

What exactly do you mean by “reboot?”

A reboot can be a cleanse; a reboot can be a detox; a reboot can simply be a period of time to bring in MORE of the good stuff and phase out the foods that do not serve your body. A reboot can also be a way of learning a more sustainable lifestyle.

Why would one need/want to cleanse?

Every person on planet Earth has a viral and toxic load because we all take in a variety of toxins and pathogens as we go through life. These harmful substances collect and cause all kinds of chronic, mysterious illnesses and symptoms. At any given time, some people exhibit symptoms and some do not. When symptoms are present it is because the body is overwhelmed by viruses and toxins. If we can lower the load while also supporting our bodies with the nutrients they need, we can eliminate the symptoms, and begin to turn around the health problems. Here are the key purposes of a cleanse:

  • To reduce the “toxic load” from pathogens, heavy metals, and environmental chemicals.
  • To replenish the body with high-quality fruits, leafy greens, herbs, and vegetables.
  • To give the digestive system and liver “rest” from foods that feed pathogens (e.g., eggs, dairy, gluten, pork, soy, canola oil, etc.)

The Core Principles of a Cleanse

  • Add in, don’t just cut out: Cleansing isn’t just about removing harmful foods! It’s about adding hydrating, mineral-rich, and glucose-rich foods (like celery juice, fruit, cucumbers, sprouts, and leafy greens).
  • Hydration first: Water from fruits, vegetables, and fruit juices are some of the best ways to “flush out” debris in the body. Living water (water with fresh fruit or veggies added) is super beneficial, as is coconut water.
  • Gentle and sustainable: Daily and periodic routines (such as the 3:6:9 Cleanse) allow the body to detox gradually.
  • Pathogen starving: By avoiding certain foods, you “starve” viruses and bacteria while “feeding” your immune system.

Cleanses can be done just for the morning or all day, and can also be supported by healing herbs and supplements. Some favorites for heavy metal detox are spirulina, barley grass juice powder, or wild blueberries.

Cleanses are highly personalized

It’s important to recognize that we are in all different stages of healing. What is right for one person may not be right for another person. This can happen within one’s own family, within friend groups, or even between or among children living in the same home. What I can say for sure is that it is imperative to tap into your higher self when it comes to eating.

Be proud of using your free will to make your own choice to work on your healing. Have compassion for yourself and know that your suffering is not your fault. Your struggles are not your fault. You’re accomplishing great things every single hour and day as you work on your healing process… I believe you can heal. -Anthony William

Cleanses should be customized for all, but particularly for those who are starting from scratch, those who are already raw/plant-based/avoiding no-foods, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
