Drop 10 + 7 Day Detox | Super Foods

Good morning everyone! I hope this Wednesday finds you well! I'm halfway though my detox and I'm feeling great! I wanted to post another thing from my detox and let you know how beneficial these things can be not only or when you're detoxing but in your everyday life. Let us know if you have any questions and update us on your progress! We love to hear from you!

  

Kale

Its vitamin C has been shown to rev
fat burning; plus, kale can turn on your
natural detoxifying enzymes to help
ward off lung and stomach cancers.

Cherries

They're like natural energy bombs:
Anthocyanins help muscles use sugar for
energy, and tart cherries have melatonin,
a sleep-regulating hormone.

Yogurt

Probiotics—healthy bacteria in both regular
and Greek yogurt—aid digestion. And the hit
of calcium may fire up fat melting and
discourage fat storage.

Almond Butter

Fiber in this nutty spread lowers the number
of calories you absorb from meals, so they
pass clean through your system.

Dark Chocolate

Antioxidants in the sweet stuff appear to lower
levels of the stress hormone cortisol (linked
with belly fat) and aid circulation.
Result: glowing skin.

Blueberries

Nature's miracle pill? They're full of fiber
that helps pull fat through the digestive
tract. Plus, blueberries contain antioxidants
that speed fat burning.

Olive Oil

Trading out the saturated fat in butter for
the monounsaturated in olive oil may help
you feel more energized and switch on fat-burning genes.
