Summary

Detoxification is something our bodies do naturally. Unfortunately, things are much different for us now than they were for our ancestors. While they were exposed to very few environmental toxins as little as 75 years ago, the same cannot be said for us today. We are simultaneously being overloaded by external toxins and undersupported by our diets because our diets are not balanced enough to keep our natural detox processes robust. Over the past few weeks of our series on detoxification, we have talked about the impact that too much detoxification can have on your health, as well as the differences between metabolic and psychologic detoxification and the dangers of fad detoxes. I want to wrap up this series discussing the very powerful role that some foods and supplements can play in our body's natural detoxification processes. I also want to share some of my favorite botanicals and herbs that I use with my patients to support their natural detoxification processes. Today I'm excited to dive into the steps of a 12-week detox program. Along the way, I'll share with you some of my absolute favorite botanicals and herbs to use to support the detoxification process while also showing you how to be intentional about limiting exposures to harmful toxins in your home, food, and household products. Listen in as I talk about the historical and scientific support behind these detoxifying herbs and the steps you can take to rid your home and your body of the harmful toxins that are getting in the way of your health. "The more we can return to simple and natural, the more we can use less." - Aviva Romm Join Dr. Aviva Romm as she dishes up a weekly dose of the whole truth on health and medicine.

0:17.8	I'm Dr. Aviva and it's such a pleasure to be here with you. I hope you enjoyed the two
0:36.7	fabulous guests I've had recently Joanna Kempner talking about
0:41.6	migraines and the history of women and pain and migraine
0:45.5	personality and her book Not Tonight I have a migraine and the incredible Marlene
0:51.7	Timmerman who was a two-term senator in Belgium, is doing amazing
0:58.8	international work, raising awareness on overuse of Cessarian section in resource-rich countries,
1:07.0	but also the equally important and devastating lack of access to Cessarian sections for women in need in resource poor
1:15.3	country. So if you haven't listened to those, I surely hope you will because I
1:20.2	think both women have such important messages to share that are relevant to all of us.
1:24.8	I also hope you might have gotten to see some of my photographs on Instagram.
1:29.3	I had a really wonderful vacation with my husband. Now that our kids are grown, we have a little bit more freedom in our time and some of my work is portable.
1:41.0	So we were able to enjoy two weeks in Lisbon and in southern Spain and it was an
1:48.0	incredibly relaxing vacation but also just so enriching to see these buildings that were a thousand years old and
1:56.2	still lasting. I think one of my takeaway messages is just how so many things when we are aware of how precious our resources are we
2:07.3	build to last we we value them and we make them important and how different that
2:12.1	is now when things are built for planned
2:15.5	obsolescence.
2:17.4	So we're back and I wanted to circle back around.
2:22.1	We had a little bit of a break with the episodes that I just
2:24.7	shared with you and also my vacation between the last detox episode and this one. So I want to
