Dr. Colbert’s food-first approach to detox
Detox is not a juice fast or a harsh cleanse. It is giving your body’s own cleansing organs what they need, and taking away what overloads them.
- Start with daily habits. Water, fiber, sleep and movement do more than any trend. Here are 12 daily detox habits.
- Support your gut. A healthy gut lining and good bacteria matter. Read what to know before taking probiotics.
- Eat cleansing foods. Cruciferous vegetables, garlic, herbs and colorful produce support your liver. Try an elephant garlic wellness paste.
- Reduce what you take in. Filter your water and cut back on processed foods, sugar and refined oils.
- Do it together. The free 21 Day Detox Challenge walks you through it day by day.

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. (3 John 1:2, KJV)
