Candy canes. Christmas cookies. Cookies. And more cookies. Egg Nog. All that and more are typical at Christmas time. And that is not including the pecan pies and red wine. The truth is, Christmas is a time for festivities and food, in no particular order. Of course, the other 'F' falls off the list of priorities as a result. That 'F' is Fitness. And with "fitness" forgotten we on average consume more calories and downgrade our fitness and health. So, how do we get back our fitness and health for the new year?
There are many articles and blogs commenting on this very question.
The most common recommendation is to return to normal. Go back to your normal dietary habits as soon as possible. It may take a few days to return your body and its energy demands vs supply and metabolism to normalcy but you will get there. I agree with this simple suggestion, but what if you are like most people and have bad dietary habits or follow a low-quality, poor nutrition plan. Perhaps you are like most people and eat more than the recommended amounts of artificial sweeteners, food additives or dyes, processed chemicals, refined sugars, saturated fats or trans-fatty acids. Yes? If so, the best thing to do would be to do an effective, gentle cleanse and detox in addition to exercising regularly and following a sound nutrition plan. The cleanse and detox plan would clean out and recharge your body and its organs and systems, especially your gut, and restart your metabolism. The exercise and nutrition plans would allow you to continuously improve and maintain all areas of fitness and health, relaxation and restoration.
No other way around it, "The pathway to good health is through your gut."
The human body is innately equipped with highly ingenious and involved organs and processes and systems which are naturally designed to continuously give itself fuel and nutrients and also often or regularly mobilize and remove chemicals, inflammation and toxins.
The primary organs for the above said are:
- Blood and Skin
- Colon and Intestines
- Gallbladder, Kidneys and Pancreas
- The Heart, Liver, Lungs, Lymphatics
The organs above mentioned and the respected functions and pathways are in reality interconnected with and interdependent upon the others synergistically. Therefore, if the organs are functioning properly and together we will be and feel in good health. But if any of the organs or its functions or pathways is performing less than optimal, such as its slow, then an unnatural burden exists on other organs which precedes unpleasant symptoms.
The signs or symptoms that the body has or shows as a way of indicating it's tired, toxic, and unclean and needs a little gentle, tender loving care by means of a cleanse & detox plan. The usual constellation of complaints that your body tells you you are toxic and and unclean and to what extent or severity you need to detox and cleanse it are:

The usual constellation of complaints that your body tells you you are toxic and and unclean and to what extent or severity you need to detox and cleanse it are:
- Bad Breath and Coated Tongue
- Bowel Issues, Chronic Bloating and Constipation
- Chronic 'Cold' Symptoms, Fatigue, Lethargy and Tiredness
- "Gassy", Hormonal Imbalances and Hunger Cravings and Pangs
- Persistent Dizziness, Headaches, and Muscle Aches and Weakness
- Problematic Skin Conditions, such as Acne, Eczema, Hives and Rosacea
- Reduced Sex Drive; Stubborn Weight Gain or Unexplained Weight Loss; and MORE.
Do this. And here is Phytly's version-'The Plan.' It consists of nutrition, supplementation and water. It's several steps! And the key is to avoid Cleanse & Detox symptoms (The Healing Crisis) by being persistent and proactive to support your body’s inherent ability to clean itself or clear out and unload toxins and waste. You can request a personal 'Plan' too- CLICK HERE!
1. Cut Out Toxic & Unclean Foods: The more you breathe, drink, eat, use or wear toxic or unclean air, drinks, food or products, respectively, the more severe will be your symptoms. Think, a heavy coffee drinker or smoker that suddenly stops their consumption or use will experience numerous symptoms, including intense, regular headaches and tiredness. The first step of 'The Plan' is to breathe, drink, eat and live a CLEAN life. So GO and get rid of anything and everything that prevents you from doing so.
3. Get Help From Digestive Enzymes: You also must understand daily nutritional support and water is not enough by themselves. You need to consume digestive enzymes to help metabolize food and process nutrients and substrates too. Without digestive enzymes your body will be unable to breakdown and use essential nutrients or substrates which could cause digestive issues, nutritional deficiencies, reduced labido, tiredness, and more. [I had bloating, cramping, gas and stomach pains everyday for more than three years. It affected my eating and exercise habits, energy levels, mood and sleep. I ate healthy and was an avid exerciser of at or more than 90 minutes of exercise per day (I am an exercise physiologist and personal trainer), but my GI system sucked! However, my GI symptoms resolved after I was introduced to and started using doTERRA Terrazyme Digestive Enzyme Complex.] The said is a digestive enzyme treasure. It's a concentrated digestive enzyme supplement with a patented assimilation system to make the enzymes distribute evenly to the proper cells, organs and systems, especially in the GI tract to clean out the intestinal walls and keep the "Gut in Check." After a year my GI system is symptom-free.
4. Maintain Daily Nutritional Need, Support: Understand your body is designed to filter out and eliminate toxins from in the body's organs and systems. Though you may drink and eat a perfect all-Organic, Gluten-free, Paleo or Vegan diet your food alone can not provide all the essential fatty acids and macro and micronutrients the body needs to regulate its physiological development, functions and metabolism and support its natural cleansing and detoxification processes. Don't worry! There is a complete and easy solution. It again comes from doTERRA. It's doTERRA Lifelong Vitality (LLV). Its a complete, daily, easy-to-use nutritional system containing all 4 categories of nutrients- antioxidants, essential Omega- fatty acids, minerals and vitamins- that boost immunity, support the body's cleansing and detoxification processes and reduce cellular fatigue, inflammation and oxidative stress. The doTERRA LLV is the first complete nutritional system and after using it with a healthy nutrition plan it, I had cleansed and detoxed my body, enhanced my exercise performance and recovery time, improved my sleep quality, and much more.
5. Use doTERRA Essential Oils and Products: What's up with doTERRA? Why the mentioning and use? Well, if there is something good it's expected to tell everyone about it. The Bible. doTERRA. You get the idea. The doTERRA Cleanse and Detox Plan is the most gentle, superior program. For example, The Master Cleanse Plan specifically detoxes the gallbladder by drinking a cayenne, lemon and pure maple syrup drink several times a day for weeks. In comparison, a daily drop of the doTERRA Lemon Essential Oil is equal to 20 lemons and detoxes the gallbladder. The doTERRA Zendocrine Supplement contains whole food constituents and extracts that specifically support cleansing and detoxifying the colon, kidneys, liver, lungs and skin. Again, you may ask, "Why doTERRA Oils and Products?" Trial and error!!! "These are the only "things" I have had complete success for cleansing and detoxification (and increasing my immune system among other things). If you follow 'The Plan' you'll benefit greatly and have success too.
Now if you do not try the doTERRA essentials oils and products PLEASE use something to cleanse and detox your body's organs and systems. And if you or your body does not agree with or have positive changes from using perhaps a commercialized or OTC product then perhaps give 'The Plan' a reasonable try. As with any change in or following of a new lifestyle plan of cleansing & detoxing, exercise, healthy nutrition and stress management, including massage and yoga, it is MOST IMPORTANT to just do something. There are numerous methods, plans and techniques for a cleanse and detox, exercise, nutrition and stress management, so it's important to find the best, most effective and suitable plan. And it's equally important to follow a plan that has the fewest chemicals and only natural products, long-term benefits and real results that are shared by trusting allied health professionals, dietitians, M.D.'s, and people like you. I don't like juicing. I like 'My Plan.'
