Announcing New Detox Program

Standard Process has just added a 10 day or 28 day detox program. Perhaps you have tried or heard me talk about the 21 Day Purification program in the past. Don’t worry, that is still available, but this new program is just about everything I could have wished for. First off, it is vegan, gluten free and packs a whopping about of 17 grams of protein in a chair flavored shake. And you get to eat real food the entire time you are on the program healthy protein, healthy fats, veggies and some healthy grains. The all-in-one shake helps you remove toxins that can contribute to fatigue, insomnia, digestive issue, food cravings and weight gain, reduced mental clarity, low libido, skin issues and joint discomfort.

I love doing a detox mid summer since fruits and vegetables are aplenty, you can eat a simple fare during the hot summer months and detox from vacation, BBQs and treats.

Contact us if you are interested in our 10 or 28 day detox program.

Are you ready for Spring?

Are you ready for Spring? In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Spring is a time for growth and renewing. Spring is associated with the Liver energy. The liver is responsible for the smooth flow of qi (or energy) in our bodies. Just as we take the time to do some Spring cleaning around the house and in our flower beds, Spring is also a great time for cleansing and renewing our own bodies with some healthy regimens that may have dwindled in the winter.

If you are interested in doing a springtime cleanse, consider coming in for a nutritional consultation. We have a great way you can cleanse your system while still eating. By doing a cleanse, it can remove the toxic buildup from over processed foods and consumption of sugar. You can regain your naturally energy and improve your sleep – in addition to shedding a few pounds.

To round out your Spring health tune-up, consider acupuncture. Acupuncture can assist in the overall health of your liver. If your liver energy flows properly, you are less likely to become irritable, and your energy restored. The liver is also in charge of tendons; just another reason to start back to walking, golfing or another.

Get ready for the first long walk of season and enjoy Spring!

What is CBD Oil?

We are happy to announce that we now carry Charlotte’s Web CBD oil. CBD is a cannabinoid. Cannabinoids are considered antioxidants and neuroprotectants by the federal government. The Endocannabinoid system (ECS) affects a variety of biological processes, one being bringing your body into homeostasis, just like acupuncture! There are no “high” feelings from taking CBD.

So what does it help with?

Many studies have been done regarding the medical properties of Cannabinoids. And looking at the ECS system, we have receptors that affect our appetite, pain, autonomic nervous system, energy and balance, immune function, memory, metabolism, sleep, stress response, and thermoregulation.

We chose Charlotte’s Web due to their high quality products and their mission. I have tried it myself and use it to combat stress. We have seen great success with use for stress and anxiety, pain, migraines, just to name a few. Charlotte’s Web is a whole-plat extract, which research suggests you get the best benefit. The product is grown, manufactured and shipped all from Colorado. It is non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan.

Charlotte’s Web comes in three strengths: Everyday, Everyday Plus and Everyday Advanced. And in two flavors mint chocolate, and olive oil. My personal favorite is mint chocolate. Contact us to find out which one will suite your needs. They are also releasing a topical cream in just a few weeks. So stay tuned.
