Naturopath Naomi's Full Body Cleanse Reboot
It’s time to cleanse, reboot and balance your hormones.
This series is to help you cleanse through your body systems so that you feel great and balance your hormones at the same time.
Reboot Day 1
Lymphatic System
The Lymphatic system is the best place to start when cleansing.
Hives, sinus problems, puffy eyes are signs your lymphatics aren’t working well.
Foods to support the lymphatics
Celery juice
Nettle tea
Parsley
Echinacea tea
High vegetable and fat-free soups and stews
Reboot Day 2
Kidneys
Your kidneys are often neglected, and these days they are permanently working due to all the water we drink. The added complication is that tap water contains chlorine, fluoride, boron and ammonia. So your kidneys are forever having to work to cleanse and remove waste from your body.
Favourite Kidney Cleanse Foods
Berries
Celery
Beetroot
Bitter Veg
Nettle Tea
Burdock tea
Lemon in water
Reboot Day 3
Bowel
Once your liver has processed toxins it sends them to the bowel via your bile. Your poo is made up of water, bacteria, bile, undigested foods and also toxins which are ready to be excreted.
Foods great for bowel cleansing
Bone Broth
Algae
Seaweed
Aloe vera
Okra
Slippery elm
Coconut oil
Blueberries
Butter / Ghee
Chia seeds
Flaxseeds
Raw Cacao
Green Apple
Carrots
Reboot Day 4
Liver
Your liver has three phases which help to break down toxic substances into water-soluble molecules which then your body can excrete via the bowel or kidneys.
All the phases need to be working in a balanced way, not to fast and not to slow. You can use foods nutrients to support your livers phases and ensure toxins are not reabsorbed or converted into more toxic metabolites.
Foods to support liver detoxification
Polyphenols (berries, cocoa, coffee, acai)
Brassica veg (broccoli, kale, cauliflower)
Green tea
Lemon in water
Sulphur based foods (cabbage, leeks, Brussel sprouts, onion and garlic)
Milk Thistle
40 grams of fibre daily from vegetables
Dill
Basil
Oysters
Reboot Day 5
Gallbladder
Your gallbladder serves a very important function. It’s the main function is to store bile which stores toxins, then it pumps the bile into your small intestines to help excrete toxins from your body.
Excess estrogen will cause the gallbladder to become sluggish and you are more likely to suffer from stones and eventual gallbladder removal.
Foods which support your gallbladder
Apple cider vinegar
lemon in water
Globe Artichoke
Bitter vegetables (endive, rocket, coriander)
Eggs
No Gallbladder??
Support your liver
Ox Bile supplements 10ml apple cider vinegar in water daily
Milk thistle supplement – I love Flordis milk thistle brand
2 litres of filtered water daily
Probiotic daily
Taurine
Choline foods (globe artichoke, eggs)
