Today I want to talk about a quick, healthy and simple way to give yourself a seasonal detox. People oftentimes are wondering ways that they can try to rid their bodies of all the different toxins they are exposed to, whether it’s coming from food or the environment. There is a simple way for you to transition from one season to the next with Colon HxⓇ. I want to talk about this in some detail and why utilizing Colon HxⓇ as a seasonal detox is so incredibly beneficial.†
We know that the average American diet lacks fiber. We should be taking in roughly 30 grams of fiber per day, but the average American struggles to get to even 10 grams per day. Diet certainly matters and the fact that we have such a lack of fruit and vegetable intake each and every single day is detrimental to our health. This is why using something such as the Colon HxⓇ can be so beneficial.†
Colon HxⓇ contains psyllium fiber. Psyllium is so beneficial for our health. Psyllium contains short-chain fatty acids, especially butyrate. Butyrate has strong anti-inflammatory properties. Psyllium also helps to promote healthy cholesterol and blood glucose levels, as well as digestive health. This formula also offers triphala fruit extract, along with bentonite clay, which has natural detox capabilities that are quite astounding.†
Bentonite clay packs a punch. When we think about natural detox, we understand that this clay has a finite ability to bind onto a whole wide range of different toxins. When we are taking in things from our environment and food, we want to be able to bind that and remove it so it’s not just lingering about the body. This is where the bentonite really becomes very, very helpful. When you think about taking in processed foods on a daily basis, our bodies take on all of these different chemicals. Bentonite is able to grab onto those harmful chemicals and allow the body to remove them.†
Triphala is also very interesting when it comes to detox. This extract has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties. When we’re trying to optimize the way that our immune system and intestines are working, this combination of psyllium, bentonite clay and triphala fruit extract is very powerful stuff. When we think about seasonal changes and moving into the fall, we definitely want to make sure that we give our body that extra detox boost.†

You know how problematic a clogged drain can be, but imagine what would happen if your liver were clogged up. Today, I want to talk about clogged-up livers and talk about non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.†
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a major problem throughout the world and this is becoming increasingly prevalent. It is becoming the leading cause of liver disease throughout the world. This issue has a strong tie to cardiometabolic diseases as well.†
This can all come down to diet. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, as opposed to alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver, occurs through the accumulation of hepatic fat. The basic way to describe this problem is “the clogging up of the liver.” When we have an excess amount of fat, it begins to build up within the liver itself and it creates inflammation. This can even lead to liver cancer.†
Some of the risk factors for the pathophysiology of this disease include insulin resistance, dyslipidemias, elevated triglycerides, elevated cholesterol and obesity. There are also different genetic predispositions, but most of it comes down to diet and lack of exercise.†
THE BASICS OF INVITE HEALTH’S GENETIC TESTING – INVITE HEALTH PODCAST, EPISODE 340. Listen Now>>
Every single day, Americans are taking in nutrient-depleted foods. These foods are lacking in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are needed to help protect the liver. Because of this, it’s not hard to realize why there has been such an increased prevalence in fatty livers.†
Nutrients such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E are really important when it comes to maintaining the health of the liver.†
If you do find that you have a fatty liver, the first thing you should do is take a hard look at your diet, as well as your levels of exercise. You could also be on a medication that might impacting your liver enzymes. We also have to look at what nutrients we may be deficient in. For instance, many studies have shown that inadequate levels of Vitamin E can be linked to the worsening of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Additional studies have shown that when patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease begin supplementing with Vitamin E, this can help reduce the amount of oxidative stress and inflammation, as well as liver cell death.†
Omega-3 fatty acids are also going to play a role in this. This includes fish oils, krill oils and flaxseed, which can all help ease inflammation.†
