Many chronic health issues can be traced back to a poorly functioning detoxification system, but you can join Bastyr Center for Natural Health clinical supervisor Mary Purdy, MS, RD, for an educational talk on ‘A New Year, A New You! Cleansing for 2015 with the Eat Clean Routine’ on Thursday, January 15th from 6p – 7:30p.
Pesticides, chemicals, pollution, plastic, smoking, microwaves, alcohol, etc. is a lot for the body to take on each day. Learn basic insights into how foods, and supportive supplements, can help our body’s ability to detoxify, and about why a food-based detox might be right for you. This free lecture includes information on:
- where toxins come from
- conquering cravings
- what a 10-day detox entails
- simple detox strategies and recipes
This informative lecture is part of the “Living Naturally: Conversations on Health and Happiness with Bastyr Experts” series, and is free but donation items will be collected for the University District Food Bank. Reservations are not required for participation but you can reserve a spot at Mary@Nourishingbalance.com (put ‘Detox Workshop’ in the subject title.) The first 10 sign-ups will get a free Nourishing Balance tote bag.
All Living Naturally lectures take place in the Bastyr Center, and feature a session for question-and-answers. Future workshops are:
- Jan 24th, ‘One-Pot Anti-Inflammatory Meals’, from 10:30a – Noon
- Apr 11th, ‘Start Spring Fresh with Detoxifying Foods’, from 10:30a – Noon
