How to Get the Most From This Program! 10 Liver Detox Tips

Dear Patient,

Congratulations on taking the first step toward improving your health! We want to make this journey of yours as easy as possible. As a result, we have prepared a list of tips for your consideration even before your first detox meal. Please review these as often as necessary as each of them holds a key to your success!

Tip #1: The key to your success in managing your detox program is to effectively integrate healthy eating into your daily routine. What will help you do this is planning and preparing your meals ahead of time. Please read that again!

Planning and preparing your meals ahead of time is the only way to stay on track with this or any food consumption program. This is so you can always have the freshest and cleanest foods available to eat when you want to and therefore leave nothing to chance.
If you simply rush out of the house each day, empty handed, and hope to find something healthy to eat later on and at some place along the way other than your home, you are more likely to slip back into the old unhealthy habits that got you into this situation in the first place.

So, establishing a daily routine where your meals are planned and prepared ahead of time is critical to your success. We understand this may be a new concept for many, but actually planning and preparing food ahead of time is a practice that every healthy person has mastered. There is simply no other way. So, embrace this small change; after just a few days of doing so, you will start to see the benefits.

Tip #2: Take a few days, if necessary, to look over the list of available sources of protein, vegetables and fruits. Familiarize yourself with this list and start to make a few small changes now, before you totally commit to the program.

This will allow you to get you better acclimated. If, however, you feel that you can start right in as soon as receiving this material, then by all means, do so. However, it’s not uncommon for anyone to spend some time preparing to make these changes before they actually do.

Tip #3: Since you will likely be eating more fresh food than you have in the past, you should prepare yourself to shop at the grocery store at least 2 or 3 times each week.

Many healthy people whether they are on this particularly program or not, have adopted this frequency, this habit, into their daily routines.

Once you see the benefits of eating fresh, it will make more sense to you to shop for food more often than perhaps your current schedule allows for.

Tip #4: Take the list of foods you can eat with you to the store found on page 54 of this program. Photocopy it if you need to. When in doubt, simply eat something on this list.

If you are considering something that doesn’t appear on it, please consult with us before doing so.

Tip #5: Look over your schedule to determine when you will be allowed to eat, especially if you are working an eight hour day. It is important that you eat at least every two or three hours, even if it is a small snack.

If you work prohibits this, we can write and excuse for you that will help your employer better identify your need for doing so.

Tip #6: It is recommended that you stay away from any and all restaurants while on this program. There just really isn’t anything, other than perhaps a plain salad, that can match the freshness and cleanness of what you can do for yourself at home.

If you do have to go out for lunch for a work-related meeting, etc., eat a light salad with a vinaigrette dressing. Stay away from everything else. And drink only water with lemon.

Tip #7: Protein takes time to cook and so many people would rather not have to cook it every day. What is better is to make about 2-3 days-worth of protein, and freeze it for when you need it. This will limit the amount of time spent in the kitchen.

Tip #8: If you have a choice, please select organic foods over conventionally grown foods. If you find that this is too expensive for your budget, then be sure to clean your vegetables.

If you simply just rinse them underwater, that is not good enough to get the pesticides and other agricultural chemicals off them. This is because those are typically designed to be waterproof.

You can buy a vegetable wash at most grocery stores and they are well worth it.

Or, if you want to use something even simpler and less expensive, simply clean them with vinegar and/or lemon juice.

Tip #9: Salad dressings are typically loaded with sodium and so are not recommended. Plus, they may have other ingredients that can negatively affect your detox program.

Instead, make you own salad dressings as outlined in this program. Or, if time is an issue, simply use olive oil and/or vinegar. You will be happy to know that there is 0 mg of sodium in these.

Tip #10: Never pass up a farmers market when you see one. There’s nothing more fresh then buying something from a farm that has recently been picked.

Of course, you should ask if the food was grown with or without pesticides etc. But a farmers market, in general, will always have food that is fresher than what is found at your grocery stores by a few days.
