Each year, our office begins with a full-body detox to reset and revitalize our health. Even with clean eating and lifestyle choices, our bodies are constantly exposed to toxins—making periodic detoxification not just beneficial, but necessary.
Over the past 50 years, our food supply has changed dramatically. Much of today’s food is highly processed and loaded with preservatives that can contribute to a range of health issues. Pesticide use has increased significantly, and these chemicals aren’t just on our produce—they’re in the air we breathe, especially due to car emissions and industrial pollution. Pesticides have been linked to cancer, autoimmune diseases, and more. Surprisingly, even personal hygiene products can contain chemicals that burden the body.
Thankfully, our bodies are equipped with powerful systems to filter and eliminate toxins. The liver plays a central role in this process—it’s remarkably resilient, but it can become overwhelmed. When that happens, our overall health can suffer.
That’s why giving the liver a break through detox is so important.
A quality detox program should eliminate processed foods, sugar, wheat, dairy, corn, alcohol, and caffeine. Instead, focus on a whole-food, organic diet. Targeted supplementation is also vital to support the body’s natural detoxification processes and provide nutrients not easily obtained from diet alone.
Detox can relieve a wide variety of symptoms including:
Digestive problems
Headaches
Fatigue
Acne
Bad breath
Insomnia
Brain fog
Depression
It can even jumpstart weight loss and help you feel more energetic, focused, and balanced.
If your goal is a longer, healthier life, detoxification is a powerful tool worth incorporating into your annual routine.

Yours in health,Dr. Brett Wood
