Cleansing is not a new fad or a different word for diet. Cleansing is a meaningful way to support your body, to clear up minor symptoms now that could lead to bigger symptoms later. Here are some signs that you need to cleanse. 1) You have a bloated belly or swelling somewhere in the body. Eating foods that are high in fat and sugar will lead to indigestion and bloating, and over time affect your gut health. Your gut, or digestion, is home to 70% of your overall immunity, making it vital to your overall health. A cleanse helps to flush your gut of yeast overgrowth, (yes, we all get it) and bad bacteria.

If you haven’t dealt with Cancer, or a serious illness, you might wonder too. Maybe you assume that nutrition coaching or analyzing one’s diet and food is for vain women who want to look good. It’s all about being skinny, after all. Isn’t it? Not in my world. It’s about feeling great. It’s about reducing inflammation; aches, pains, sinus, infertility, migraines, auto-immune issues, and even the big C. Cancer. It’s about the energy and awesomeness that you feel…
