Sharing the details about an upcoming Dr. Cabral 7-day detox. Sharing the details here and how to join in if you’d like!
Hi friends! How’s the morning going? I hope you’re enjoying the long weekend! I made it back from San Diego and it was right back into the activities: basketball games, family hike, ice cream and pizza night. It was perfect.
It’s hard to believe that the holidays flex by so quickly and we’re back into the school year. To be totally honest, I’ve been slow rolling this year. It’s taken me longer to get back in the swing of things – I FINALLY broke out my 2026 planner last week – and in case many of you were feeling the same way, I figured we’d wait until starting our Fitnessista Community Detox.
I feel SO GREAT after every single one and since it’s been a few months, so I’m ready for another round. Usually every January, I do some type of reset. Sometimes I cut out sugar and alcohol entirely for the month, other times, I’ll just focus on solid nutrition. Since I started implementing this detox years ago, it’s something I look forward to quarterly.
It feels amazing to get back in the habit of eating (and craving) vegetables and fresh foods, especially after the joyful avalanche of holiday sweets and cocktails.
Community detox details
Moderation is my jam now, especially since the days of depriving myself are long gone. If I want a sweet treat or something more indulgent, I eat it and enjoy every bite. It’s been a festive couple of months, and I’m feeling a bit sluggish and craving sugar more than usual. Usually by the time New Years rolls around, I’m looking forward to making my way back to more *normal* eating. I love to kickstart it with a little reset, and my favorite strategy is this liver-based functional medicine detox.
SO many of you joined me last time, so I wanted to invite you to join in if you’d like to go for another round. The fun starts February 2, so you can order your kit now and you’ll be ready to go!
Here’s more about this 7-day detox:
– It’s a liver-based detox to help reset your body, provide a break from digesting heavy foods, and potentially help your body eliminate toxins that we accumulate from our environment. It includes functional medicine ingredients and Ayurvedic herbs to support phase 1 and 2 liver detoxification.
– It’s nutrition-focused. It includes the POWERHOUSE Daily Nutritional Support powder (which I’ve had in my daily protein pudding for years now and notice a huge difference in how I feel when I include it), and meal guidelines for the remaining meals. The goal is to NOT have your body depleted of nutrients during the process.
– It can potentially help with weight loss, along with anti-aging, and total body wellness.
– It’s only 7 days! When I first started working with a naturopath (back in the old days! It was like 2010), he had me do a month-long detox that was similar in format (but did not include the Ayurvedic supplements).
It’s so much easier to do for 7 days, and I feel like my results were even better from the extra nutritional support. (The first two days are supplements and smoothies only – I typically add in some berries – and on day 3, you add in nutrient-dense meals using their meal guideline/template.) It’s also very flexible; many people skip the fasting days and start the plan on day 3 (smoothie in the am, vegan lunch, Paleo dinner) and have excellent results.
Top 6 ingredients that are included in the program:
1) N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), which can stimulate the production of glutathione in the body
2) Glutathione, which is an antioxidant that can aid in healing and liver detoxification
3) Broccophane, an antioxidant that can enhance the liver’s detoxification ability
4) Alpha Lipoic Acid, another antioxidant that can improve detoxification
5) Triphala, a trifecta of Ayurvedic herbs that can support detox and digestion
6) Vitamins and minerals, to support the body and help to close nutrient gaps
Each detox kit includes the following:
Daily Nutritional Support:
This one-stop-shop for vitamins, minerals, protein, electrolytes, and antioxidants is the heart-and-soul of the Dr.Cabral Detox. With 15 grams of vegan protein, Daily Nutritional Support provides your body with much-needed energy and nutrition while your body begins to rid itself of toxins.
FM Detox:
Utilizing the most recent research in Functional Medicine, FM Detox provides the compounds necessary to support both phases of liver detoxification. Essential amino acids, antioxidants, and botanical extracts like milk thistle help the body to capture and move toxins to the liver where they can be metabolized and removed during phase two. Ingredients like dandelion root extract support the production of bile which aids in elimination. As a diuretic, dandelion root increases water supplied to the liver which facilitates toxin elimination in the urine.
AYU Detox:
Incorporating ancient Ayurvedic healing traditions that support optimal detoxification, the AM Detox helps begin the detox process. Various diuretics move water to the liver and increase the solubility of toxins. Triphala, the combination of three plants: Emblica Officinalis, Terminalia bellerica, and Terminalia chebula, have been studied for their roles in gastrointestinal health. When used in conjunction, it is suggested this powerful trio promotes the growth of beneficial gut microbes Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus, while inhibiting the growth of undesirable strains.

Things I’ve noticed after doing this detox multiple times:
– As someone who has had gallbladder concerns in the past (that I was able to resolve on my own), I always like to show my liver some extra support. I don’t have gallbladder pain at ALL anymore (I think quitting fake meats helped with that, too), and after my first detox, it’s something I’ve continued to do on a quarterly basis.
– My energy can be a little low the first day, but by the second afternoon, I feel amazing. I’m energized, focused, my skin is glowing, and I feel great.
– It’s usually a very easy month for my cycle. I don’t have any cramps or PMS symptoms, and I’ve learned that the months I’m more strategic with my workouts, sleep, stress relief, and nutrition, my cycles are uneventful in the best way.
– It resets my tastebuds. When I have more sugar in my diet, things like fruit and salad start to taste muted to me. By bringing things back to basics, it reawakens my senses to what I like to food to taste like, and I can go back to fully enjoying my meals and being present at meal times.
– I don’t weigh myself regularly, but noticed that my clothes fit better after completely the detox. I feel less bloated and inflamed. You can read my recap of one of my first detoxes plus the recipes I used here!
This detox is NOT for you IF:
– you currently have or are recovering from an eating disorder. Keep working on improving your relationship with food and your health, and know that I’m cheering for you and sending you my love and support.
– you are training for a strenuous event or need to maintain a super active lifestyle. For days 1-2 you want to take it easy (walks, stretching, gentle yoga, or nothing at all). If you’re not able to do that, you can do a modified version of the detox by having the smoothies for breakfast and lunch, and then a nutrient-dense dinner at night. Let me know if you have questions on how to do this!
– You have any health concerns that would prevent you from joining in.
****As always, check with your doctor before making and fitness or nutrition changes. Honor your body.*****
