loss is simply fluid, that will return as soon as you drink). Make sure the water used in the sauna is filtered, and does not add even more chemicals to the mix.
A safe and healthy detoxification program will promote slow weight loss, remove inflam- matory foods, food additives, and chemicals and provide nutrients to support normal detoxification processes. They should not be fast (7 to 10 day cleanses will dump toxins quickly), and should include adequate levels of nutrients such as protein, which provides the key building blocks the liver requires to function. The choices can be confusing; some may be solely food based, others may include a hypoallergenic protein powder or other nutritional support, and each one may allow or prohibit certain foods. It is best to work with a qualified practitioner who will sort through the options, provide needed emotional and meal planning support and monitoring during the pro- cess. A sensible protocol should leave you feeling not only lighter, but better rested, more energetic, and clearer thinking as you shed chemicals and calories at the same time.
