How much fiber you need 🤷♀️
Nutritional guidelines for Americans recommend getting 14 grams of fiber for every 1000 calories in the diet.
💥 So we’re talking 25-30 grams of fiber per day for most adults.
Here are some foods to help you get there!
✔️1 cup raspberries (8g)
✔️ 1 cup broccoli (5g)
✔️ 2 carrots (3g)
✔️ 1 cup quinoa (5g)
✔️ 1 cup black beans (15g)
✔️ 1 ounce chia seeds (10g)
Think fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, legumes, and whole grains.
You can do this 🙌
🥁🥁🥁 Ready for it??
The most overlooked nutrient that is essential for healthy detoxification is…
PROTEIN 💥
Amino acids from protein are needed for phase 2 detoxification in the liver, which is the phase where toxic compounds from phase 1 are conjugated for elimination.
Yep—conjugated 🤓
But you can get the full benefits of protein without ever knowing what that word means.
Amino acids are also the building blocks of glutathione—the body’s master antioxidant and detoxifier.
So what?
So without enough protein, liver detoxification cannot work at full capacity, and toxic compounds can build up in the body.
So next time you think about loading up on greens or garlic or lemon water…don’t forget to also grab a source of protein.

Move Your Body 💃🕺
When you move, your muscles contract and act like a pump for your lymphatic system.
Your lymphatics are a central part of your immune and detoxification systems, which is why we want to improve lymphatic flow (maybe you’ve heard of lymphatic massage—that works too!).
Whether you prefer to walk, run, jump on a trampoline, do yoga, or dance…
Moving will help your detoxification systems work better 🎉
