Life Changing"
-Fall 2008 Participant

"Everything improved - I lost weight, slept better, had higher sustained energy throughout the day without the need or desire for coffee, my stress levels went way down, my ability to  focus and get things done went up - and at the end of the day, I had enough energy left over to enjoy time with my family - more so than before."
-John Stevens

" I came to this program expecting to learn more about cleaning out the buildup of junk inside my body.  I didn't realize that foods I had always considered healthy could be causing discomfort, which I had come to believe was my body aging/changing--and that I just had to endure.  That information alone--that I can make a few adjustments to my diet and stop the headaches, skin problems, and congestion--is worth tons.  To also have new practices of self-care that remind me to savor life every day adds joy to wellness.  Liz, in her caring way, brings gifts of health while teaching us how to practice what we all deserve."

What is it?:  This program was inspired by Dr. Mark Hyman's approach to health.  He has written several books including The Ultra Simple Diet, UltraMetabolism and UltraPrevention.  We will be following the general guidelines of the Ultra Simple Diet with some modifications.  My role is to educate and guide the group through the process.  At the end of the series, the hope is that each person will feel more vibrant, healthy, focused, lose some weight if desired, and learn healthier ways to eat for optimum, vibrant health.   This is a great way to jump-start a weight loss program if that is the desired goal, and/or get rid of the toxins that build up in our bodies and cause ill-health.

  • The program begins with an individual assessment to track progress.  In Week 4 another assessment will be done to check progress.  Results of progress provided in Week 5.
  • Week 1 prepares the body for the 14-day detox, which includes reducing non-vital foods and drinks, like coffee, sugar, high fructose corn syrup, trans fats, etc..  Discussion will include reasons to detox, health benefits, and guidance for the preparation period.  A 'before' questionnaire will be completed.
  • Week 2 will begin preparation for the 14-day detox, which involves making and eating a vibrant, organic vegetable broth, drinking fruit shakes with certain ingredients, and eliminating many foods known to cause potential intolerance and health imbalance.  Also included in this period is a daily detox bath (ingredients provided to each participant) and nutritive herbal teas to aid the detox process (teas provided to each participant).  Each participant will need to buy and prepare the required foods/drinks.  Guidance will be provided.
  • Shopping Trip - A trip will be organized to the Common Market in Frederick, Maryland to guide food choices for the program on the Saturday morning before the actual elimination begins.
  • Week 3 continues the detox, broth, shakes, baths and tea, with discussion of mindful eating, suggestions on reducing emotional eating, and sharing of successes and struggles.
  • Week 4 will involve a discussion of slowly adding back one food at a time, in a certain order, to assess food intolerance's/allergies that may be contributing to feeling poorly.  The 'after' questionnaire is completed. 
  • Week 5 - Questionnaire is returned with 'before' and 'after' results.  Based on feedback from prior groups, this week will be a time to share experiences with adding back various foods in a supportive, relaxing atmosphere.    Often adding back foods where there are intolerance can be challenging - this meeting will help ease that process.  Sharing successes and difficulties, with potential solutions.
  • Week 6  - A gathering of our learnings, words of wisdom to incorporate healthier eating and living  in the weeks, months, years ahead.  Also a celebration of successes - and a shared potluck supper of delicious, healthy and vibrant foods.


Read what some more of the prior participants shared about their detox experience:

"The group setting for the detox & renewal series was perfect for me.  Enjoy exchanging ideas and the support - could not have done this alone!  Seven pounds in 5 weeks and feeling great - much more energy!  Everyone can benefit from this series.  Really appreciate the guidance - I can put everything in practice easily for a healthier lifestyle!"
-B.A.S.

"I felt I ate nutritiously before - but this course  by Liz Bartlett took us to a whole new level.  It was exciting, interesting and life changing.  Delivered in an encouraging, supportive, and fun environment!"

"Good health starts with education.  This series provides that, in a common language, the material can be applied to daily living..."
-Don Abramson

"This helped my family discover that food can be medicinal - we discovered that certain foods were contraindicated for our wellbeing - that eating so purely was not that difficult - just a little planning."

"The course was very valuable.  Even if you are informed, you need to be educated.  There is so much to know about something we do every day, the most important thing we do, and the course delivers.  Loads of fun.  The graduation party is a blast."
-TH

"My detox experience with Liz Bartlett was truly a life changing one.  When we first started I was a bit apprehensive, not having done anything like this before.  I knew that I needed a change. That change was to become more healthy and take care of my body.  Detox did it for me.  I was given the best information and the best ways to take care of  myself.  Thank you Liz for putting me on the right track."
-Jackie S.

"The Detox and Renewal Seminar provided the resources and encouragement to begin and maintain a healthy lifestyle for both my husband and I.  It certainly has changed our lives, physically and mentally, for the better.  We did not realize the effect food had on our energy level, mood, and concentration until we began this program.  The results achieved were amazing.  Thank you Liz for the encouragement and sincere caring you extended throughout the seminar. "
-Peg and Joe

“The detox program really educated me in some of the foods that could be the cause of some of my health problems.  The program gave me the tools to change my eating habits without feeling hungry.  I felt better within 1 week of doing the detox program!”  
-Roberta Legdon

"I find myself talking about this Herbal Detox experience all the time. The biggest outcome of this experience has to be my realization that I discovered it was not seasonal allergies all these years but my allergy to dairy. Each time I try to add back in another dairy food I immediately feel my sinuses close right up. The money I have saved on not having to purchase my Claritin D was well worth the Detox fee. Another experience I have to say is my eating and food shopping habits have changed. I don’t have the cravings anymore for those foods full of sugar or preservatives. I find myself out of habit reaching for those same old products and than checking myself and not putting them in my cart. The fruit smoothies have become a regular treat for my family, my kids love them! They were recently the big hit of my daughter's sleepover. "
-LP

"While a we had to eliminate a good number of foods during the detox, my husband and I were pleasantly surprised by the introduction of delicious foods that we'd never tried before.   We never felt deprived.  Less than 2 weeks into the program, after weaning off caffeine and foregoing processed foods with high sodium content, my blood pressure dropped from 130/85 to an optimal 118/75.  Overall we feel great, have more energy and lost some weight.  This enlightening course has been a catalyst for getting the two of us on the same page to establish healthy eating habits for life." 
-Marilyn Herbert
