Natural Detox Program
Lori at Chicgeekdesigns inspired me to write this post. I mentioned in my post two days ago that I am on a 3 month natural detoxification program to balance my body’s pH level. Lori asked which products I am using. I decided instead of writing Lori an email, I would just write a blog post about it. Lori, I hope this answers your question.
I purchased these products at the spa while on my cruise. The product name is Elemis and the detox products are pretty expensive and at first I was hesitant to buy it. I understand the importance of a body cleanse as I have done a 1 week cleanse 3 years ago. and the program is for 3 months. My masseuse told me she takes these products too. I saw how skinny she was after having her third baby six months ago, I was sold.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Even after a week, I feel more energized, drink less coffee, and have lost weight.

Thanks so much Anna! Do you have to stick to a particular diet or are you just eating your usual stuff and then taking the medicine? This is interesting. I looked up the pills earlier on my iPhone in traffic but didn’t have a chance to read too much in detail. Don’t worry I wasn’t driving. ;-) So I’ll have to read some more later. Thanks again!
Hi Lori, You are very welcome. I wrote you an email about the diet. Have a great holiday!
