The body has its own clean-up crew to handle the detoxification of chemicals in food, water, the environment and produced by metabolic processes.
The chief janitor is the liver, and it has two phases of handling detoxification — phase 1 and phase 2.

Action Plan
#1: Give your client a list of the foods that enhance detox.
Ask them to review the foods that enhance detox, check off any they already eat on a regular basis, and experiment with adding new ones, perhaps one or more each week.
Foods that Enhance Detox: This document is a reference guide for all the foods that enhance the body’s ability to detoxify.
#2: Give your clients a list of the foods that disrupt detox.
Ask them to review the foods that disrupt detox and mark all those they no longer consume. Then pick 1 or more to have them get rid of each week until they are no longer hurting their detox pathways with their diet.
Foods that Disrupt Detox: This document is a reference guide for all the foods that interfere with the body’s ability to detoxify.
#3 Guide your client through a cleanse process.
Suggest your client undergo some sort of cleanse process – one that you believe is right for them at whatever stage they are in. It can be as simple as just eating fresh raw foods, primarily vegetables, for a few days or as complicated as a 21-day detox, with supplements and enemas. You can use my Green Cleanse as a guideline, or register them for it and guide them through. You will need to login to the client site then click the link to access, or choose from the dashboard.
