Each tier represents an escalation in intervention.The goal of holistic medicine, like acupuncture, is to\u00a0clear the obstacles to health\u00a0so that a healthy diet and occasional acupuncture treatments can enhance our health and energy. That way we can be clear headed, vibrant, and relaxed.One of the ways we do that is through well guided and balanced Detox Protocols.With a detoxification diet, we can make a considerable change in our health.Seven things that you can change in your health from a Detox: \tWeight gain \tChronic pain \tAllergies \tMood problems \tLow Energy \tPoor digestion \tSkin problemsFor better or worse, our\u00a0digestive system, cardiovascular system, endocrine system, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, and our immune systems are all affected by diet.\u00a0 Our diet can help our body operate more efficiently and eliminate toxins properly.\u00a0 We all know that we are exposed to toxins in our food, water and environment every day. \u00a0It is also important to detox gently so that we do not create harm.Five things that we need to detox from: \tPesticides \tPetrochemicals \tGMO products \tEnvironmental Allergens \tOur individual food triggers, sensitivities, and habitsThere are so many types of detox diets, fasts, and fads out there.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to follow the guidance of your healthcare provider at\u00a0The WellBridge Clinic.\u00a0 Keep in mind that many detox diets neglect to account for the metabolic cycles of the liver.As a result, these detox diets do get the body to release toxins.The problem is that the diet doesn\u2019t account for the full metabolic process of the liver that is required to eliminate those toxins.\u00a0 When that happens, people\u2019s bodies release the toxins and put them into circulation.\u00a0 The second metabolic cycle of the liver is required to eliminate those toxins.\u00a0 Most detox diets don\u2019t help the liver complete that second stage.\u00a0 So the body then reabsorbs the toxins and put them back into storage in the body. That\u2019s a lot of effort for little or no benefit.Spring is a perfect time for a 10-day Detox protocol.Chinese medicine\u00a0and\u00a0acupuncture\u00a0closely follow the rhythms of nature. Spring represents an expansion after the quiet of winter time. From this perspective, the seasonal rhythm is used to maximize our efforts.Our 10 Day Detox Protocol has been created to help you create a healthier life, with greater ease.\u00a0We will provide you with the guidelines and recipes to energize your life with a healthy detox. Don\u2019t forget that true \u2018detoxing\u2019 is a daily process, so be sure to implement these principals throughout the year.If you encounter a deal breaker that makes you think, \u201cI can\u2019t do this.\u201d \u2026Say its coffee, let me suggest continuing with the detox.\u00a0 Simply reduce your coffee intake.\u00a0 Don\u2019t let perfection become an obstacle to progress and health.\u00a0 Do your best and discuss your optimal strategy with your healthcare provider.\u00a0 You will be pleasantly surprised by making the first steps toward health.Are you ready to begin your 10-Day Detox Protocol?\u00a0Make an appointment today\u00a0at The WellBridge Clinic.John RybakPortland AcupuncturistThe WellBridge Clinic(503) 544-9611Find us on Facebook[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\t\t\t\t"}
