My Favorite Detox

I have felt very off lately my brain has been extremely foggy. This is usually caused by a hormone imbalance. A build up of cortisol which is a stress hormone can build up in the brain and if nothing is moving it out it can create a foggy brain. My favorite detox is an alkaline detox which helps clear out the cortisol buildup out of the brain. I do this by following the 80/20 rule.

The eighty percent is made up of all vegetables. Preferably leafy greens and other nutrient packed vegetables. The twenty percent is protein. This protein is limited to protein from fish, chicken, and eggs. Eating only these things for two weeks properly washes out that cortisol and creates a clear and productive brain. Something that helps me get in all my vegetables is my green juice. This is two and a half cups of a mixture of kale and spinach blended with unsweetened cashew milk. Then adding flax seeds and organic green protein powder. This keeps me full and gives me energy through me workouts. That’s the run down of my detox.

Live pretty, naturally
