Your wellness is our priority! In minisode 44, our hosts Dr. CeCe and Annah Kate explore the ever-important topic of gentle detoxing for both adults and children. This isn't just about those often grueling detox regimens that test your willpower; it’s about incorporating simple, gentle detox strategies into your daily routine to support overall health and wellness.
Detoxing has become a buzzword, but in the context of our day-to-day health, it simply means eliminating toxins from our body in a manner that doesn't add stress. Our bodies naturally detoxify, but given our modern lifestyle, the process can use a little help. From environmental pollutants to processed foods, we're constantly exposed to elements that can tax our systems. Here, gentle detoxing can play a role in supporting our body’s own efforts, enhancing digestion, boosting energy levels, and improving our mental clarity.
Dr. CeCe outlined that for kids, a gentle introduction to detox methods can start at around age two, focusing on non-intensive regimens as part of their daily wellness. For adults, rotating detox-supportive supplements monthly is recommended to avoid overburdening the body.
Some staples in the gentle detox toolkit include glutathione, activated charcoal, and bioray products like NDF Calm for children. These supplements aid in naturally supporting the body’s detox pathways without harsh effects.
Central to the detox process is adequate water intake and maintaining a balanced diet. Hydration keeps the body’s systems flowing and supports natural detoxification processes through the kidneys and liver.
Through gentle detoxing, we can support our body's inherent ability to cleanse and maintain balance, thus enhancing our overall well-being. This episode has offered us incredible insights into how detoxing can be seamlessly integrated into our daily routines, ensuring it is gentle, natural, and beneficial.
For a deeper dive into how you can tailor these practices to your needs, including specific supplements and their benefits, we highly encourage you to watch the full episode on our YouTube channel below.

- Hydration Reminder: Set a timer to drink 4 oz of water every hour from 8 AM to 8 PM. This simple step ensures you're consistently hydrating throughout the day.
- Incorporate Key Supplements: Rotate a detox-supportive supplement into your regimen monthly. Start with something gentle like glutathione, especially combined in a liquid multivitamin to mask the taste for kids.
- Diet Check: Focus on including more whole foods like fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins in your diet while reducing the intake of processed foods.
- Physical Activity: Ensure regular movement, whether it’s a light daily exercise or activities like an Epsom salt bath to encourage light sweating and toxin release.
