Detoxification

As the leaves change color and the air turns crisp, many of us eagerly welcome the warm, nostalgic flavors of pumpkin spice. However, beneath the cozy ambiance lies a concern regarding synthetic fragrances. These chemical blends, often present in candles, air fresheners, and even food products, can significantly impact our health—especially for individuals with MTHFR gene mutations.

When you have an MTHFR polymorphism, detoxification can be difficult. Gentle detox, like the one in this protocol, has many benefits including weight loss, better energy, more balanced blood sugars, reduced toxic burden, better skin, and better sleep.

Detoxifying is incredible for your body, so why does it feel like you're being pulled backward through a meat grinder? The truth is some of those feelings are par for the course because you are asking your body to do some heavy work, but it can also show you where you're stuck.

Toxins are and have been a part of the human situation forever. Even before the industrial era, toxins came from bacteria, yeast, and fungii in food, minerals and biological products in the water, and compounds in the air. Now that humans have turned into giant trash heap creatures, your detoxification systems are always working to keep you alive, but they can't always keep up.
