2025 Post Holiday Sugar Detox
Did you know your brain’s pleasure center lights up from sugar? It also spikes your blood sugar, creating insatiable cravings and maybe a little shakiness when too much time passes between sugar fixes.
Sugar is extremely addictive and if you’ve been indulging over the holidays, as I have, there’s only one way to cut the cravings. You need to detox from all sweets to stabilize your blood sugar.
Now is the time to clear your home of sweet indulgences that might have been part of your holidays. Aside from weight gain and peaks and valleys in your energy, sugar suppresses your immune system, setting you up for winter colds and viruses.
What will you get?
shopping lists, menus, daily action plans for food and living.
More details:
7 days of menus, whether eating in or dining out, that you can mix and match to cleanse and balance your system
resources and research findings on how food choices influence cravings and beneficial food combinations that will help you more fully understand the biology around cravings and how to stop them
a community of cleansers to share your stories
emphasis on organic simple whole foods and most important, no sugar.
attention to increasing awareness of the harmful effects of sugar and how to break the habit
tips on building a strong immune system to better protect you from flu and covid
daily emails to motivate you and keep you on track

At the end of the week you will notice improvements in your focus, energy, mood and digestion. Your achy knees may even feel brand new. And you’ll put an end to the cravings.
We start on Saturday January 4th and detox from sugar for a full week. After that you’ll wonder where the cravings went.
"Is it possible just two days of eating clean could make my knees feel better?"
That was a cleanse participant who had been eating a lot of sweets and rich holiday foods. She was clearly amazed to find that eating clean had such a quick effect on her achy knees. As you may know, the title of my book is Food Becomes You. Why? Because it truly does.
"I was a little headachy the first few days. Is that normal?"
Headache and body ache may show up. It's the body's way of releasing toxins and may include caffeine withdrawal. Drinking lots of water and herbal teas will hasten the process.
