Hi friends — it’s Chef Janine 🍳🕊️ here! Our bodies are exposed daily to hidden toxins like mercury, lead, and aluminum. Over time, they can cause brain fog, fatigue, and hormone issues.

As we age, our body's production of digestive enzymes declines, leading to reduced digestion, nutrient absorption, and increased risk of health issues. Enzymes are vital for breaking down food, supporting metabolism, and overall health. Eating raw foods, chewing well, reducing calories, and taking natural enzyme supplements can help maintain digestive function and slow aging-related decline. We aren’t what we eat, but what we digest and absorb.

Water fasting—a practice of consuming only water—offers rapid fat loss, improved insulin sensitivity, mental clarity, and cellular repair via autophagy. Initial weight loss is mostly water, but fasting triggers a fat-burning state and norepinephrine boost. While effective, it carries risks like electrolyte imbalance and fatigue. Preparation and medical guidance are essential for safe results.
