Spring Clean Your Body – Detoxifying Foods, Supplements & Activities

Spring has sprung! And, you’re probably making a list of all the spring cleaning projects you plan to do around the house, such as decluttering the spare room, thoroughly washing the floors, and running curtains through the washing machine.

Did you remember to add your health to the list?

Spring clean your body by purifying yourself of unhealthy microbes and substances using nutritional cleansing.

Here are a few tips to naturally spring clean your body.

Include these key detoxifying foods

Foods aren’t just delicious and nutritious—some can even provide a detoxifying effect for your body.

Heading to the grocery store? Here’s a list of some of our favorite detoxifying foods^{1, 2}:

• Cucumber
• Lemon
• Dandelion Root
• Artichoke
• Avocado
• Beets
• Fennel
• Green Tea
• Onion
• Garlic

Preferably use only organic foods to avoid adding even more toxins to your body. Try incorporating these foods into your everyday recipes and drinks. Spring is prime time for detoxification, but ideally consuming these foods year-long will help to keep the toxins moving out.

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate

As the saying goes, the solution to pollution is dilution. Drink plenty of purified water to keep the toxins flowing from your body. Also, try herbal teas specifically designed for detoxifying as well as green juices and smoothies. And, don’t forget other forms of hydration too! Epsom salt baths (yes, please!) and nasal rinses can be used to hydrate.

Take targeted nutritional supplements

Nutritional supplements can provide a powerful way to help remove microbes and toxins from your body.^*

Plexus Bio Cleanse™, contains supportive ingredients such as vitamin C, magnesium, and bioflavonoid complex. It helps to remove harmful microbes and substances from your body as it gently detoxifies.^*

Based on your health practitioner’s guidance and recommendations, include other supplements as needed.

Keep moving

Moving your body through exercise and living an active lifestyle is another cleansing activity to add to your daily routine.

Our favorite activities include:

• Walking
• Pilates
• Gentle stretching
• Yoga

Another great type of movement is dry skin brushing, which involves gently brushing your dry skin with a brush that has dry natural bristles. Doing this stimulates your lymphatic system and can help with detoxification.²

Spring clean your body

Just as your home looks and feels better as a result of your spring cleaning efforts, your body and mind also improve from spring cleaning. These foods, supplements, and activities bring many benefits that you. Benefits, that your friends, family, and co-workers will notice!

On your mark, get set, start spring cleaning!

7 REASONS YOU CANNOT LOSE WEIGHT! *SPOILER*

It is not just about diet and exercise! The top 7 reasons and the Plexus products that can help you!

1) #SLEEP - If you are not sleeping you will not lose weight. (Probio5 and MegaX)

2) #DIGESTION - constipation, bloating, feeling full all the time, a swollen stomach. ( Probio5 and Biocleanse)

3) #ENERGY LEVEL- thyroid and iron anemia (X-Factor and Slim)

4) #MENSTRUALCYCLE - if it is off you will have a hard time losing weight because estrogen makes fat. If there is excess estrogen it interferes with the thyroid and increases fat production. (Slim and Biocleanse)

5) #CRAVINGS - one way to know you are burning fat is that you will crave NOTHING. If you crave sweets it means your body only burns sugar and not FAT. (Slim/probio5 and Accelerator+)

6) #Inflammation- means the adrenals are not strong enough. It sucks the energy from the body and slows metabolism. (Mega X, EASE and NERVE)

7) #STRESS - if the body is stuck in stress mode and it cannot relax the adrenals are overloaded and you have too much body stress. (X Factor, Slim and BioCleanse)

Stop the Candida Cycle

The key and most common cause of Leaky Gut is Candida. Candida is a yeast-fungal organism that grows roots like a plant.

These roots grow into and through your intestinal tract looking for food.

These roots break through the intestinal lining and cause the leaky gut!!

Probio5 and BioCleanse are my Wonder Twins that got my Gut healthy again! I've experienced so many positive health benefits since using these two! 

From Gut to Brain:  The Inflammation Connection

The Surprising Reason You Can't Lose Weight (That No One Is Talking About)

What if I told you that your body has toxins and bacteria that build up over time as a result of prescription medications, antibiotic use, over the counter meds and bad food/drink choices. That these bacteria and toxins FEED off of sugars and carbs and make you feel tired and sluggish. So even if you do lose weight with some extreme measures by restricting your calories, more than likely you’ll gain it back again because you’re still craving starchy and sugar-laden foods just like before!! WHY IS THAT???

It’s a gut issue!!! It’s an overgrowth of yeast and bacteria that is literally demanding that you continue to feed it!! It’s also the reason why my belief in Plexus is so strong--finally a wellness theory based on science, not a moral issue of willpower or deprivation.

What if I could help you?? What if focusing on your GUT HEALTH and fixing the issue, instead of temporarily covering it up, got you to being healthier and happier?? Let’s talk about it and turn that “what if” into “look what we are doing”  

You are sooo worth it!!
