New Yorkers “Detoxify for Spring” With Dr. Morrison
New York (PRWEB) April 16, 2008
Wake up Manhattaners — it’s time to recharge, rejuvenate and renew your bodies for spring. The Hampton’s season is nearing and bathing suit time is almost here, so stop hibernating and start cleansing with Dr. Morrison’s Urban Detox Diet (www.dailybenefit.com). After 30 days, users will lead a more active and healthy lifestyle and even shed a few pounds too.
Unlike seasonal spring cleaning, there’s no Swiffer or Windex necessary for this kind of housecleaning. “Spring cleansing means detoxifying your body of the toxins you are eating, drinking and breathing in your home on daily basis,” said Dr. Jeffrey Morrison, environmental health specialist and creator of the Urban Detox Diet. “Just like you clean your house to remove allergens such as mold, dust and dander, you also need to cleanse your body to optimize health and keep it toxin-free.”
Why Detox During Spring
“During the spring season our bodies go through a series of hormonal changes,” said Dr. Morrison. “Cortisol (a hormone which helps the body break down food for energy) levels tend to fall making it easier to shed stubborn belly fat and remove waste. In the winter, our cortisol levels are higher making it more difficult to lose weight.”
How The Diet Works
The meal plan allows the body to improve its ability to cleanse itself. The diet’s effectiveness comes from the concept of eliminating unhealthy foods such as coffee, sugar, alcohol and bread and replacing them with lots of vegetables and non-allergenic protein sources.
How To Follow The Diet
For 30 days, users drink a detox shake consisting of Daily Detox Powder, Lecithin and Daily Fiber (available for purchase at www.dailybenefit.com) for breakfast and lunch. For dinner a sensible meal consisting of 4-6 ounces of protein and organic vegetables is recommended. Salads and vegetables can be eaten in between meals. The diet is safe and easy to follow.
Why Eat Organic
“Eating organic and locally grown fruits and vegetables minimizes exposure to pesticides and preservatives while increasing nutritional value,” said Dr. Jeffrey Morrison. “A natural rhythm develops between our health and the health of our environment, so if we can eat locally grown organic food during the spring season, we allow our bodies to achieve homeostasis with our surroundings.”
Does The Diet Really Work
Patients who tried the Urban Detox Diet for 30 days said the health benefits were very beneficial. They reported feeling more energetic, had lower body mass and lost between five to 20 pounds. “When you detox, the body has more resources to create energy and eliminate toxic debris instead of metabolizing refined foods,” said Dr. Morrison. To increase results, Dr. Morrison also recommends regular exercise during the diet.
