Recently I went to an educational talk with Dr. Tamara Sachs, a long time general practitioner who is very passionate about living healthy, and a National Marketing Director with the Juice Plus Company. Her talk was "Living on a Toxic Planet," and while it's depressing to think that we are indeed surrounded by toxins, her talk reminded me that the way I've been living, and the choices I make, mostly keep my body safe from those toxins. From choosing to live in the mountains of Colorado twenty years ago, to reading every label of every item I buy, it may take a little more effort, but the way my body feels and the longevity that results from living a pure clean life is worth it.
For nearly three decades, I have been very proactive about what I put in and on by body; lotions, hair products, household cleaners, and food – all of the labels of the items I buy, I read. If you're curious as to why, read my article on Read the Label. It's important to be sure of what you're using, and my general rule is that if it doesn't come from plants, I don't use it. Furthermore, if I can't pronounce it, I find out what it is, and if it doesn't come from plants, I use it. I make my own skin-healing salve, our floor cleaner, and fabric softener. One of my core values is that plants heal, and I have countless personal testimonials of how plants have healed my body inside and out, so I have dedicated my life to educating others on this both formally and individually. This is one of the core reasons I joined the Juice Plus company in 2014. Our bodies need more plants, and our systems know exactly what to do with plants. It was a match made in heaven.

So when Dr. Sachs shared her website with us, I thought it was important to share. Her Detox Fact Sheet is so comprehensive, and I love having it on hand now to share with people.
If you think your body is suffering - whether it's with pain or immune function – check out Dr. Sachs' list and start making some changes one by one. Your body will thank you.
