CleanEm Detox Powder

Our CleanEm Detox blend star the following:

• Beetroot - a superfood no doubt! It activates liver enzymes & increases bile which helps the detox function, its anti-inflammatory, protects against oxidative stress and reduces the risk of liver damage. They have an amazing ability to promote the growth of good bacteria in the gut, and with their high amount of betaine, Vit A, B6 & iron, helps reduce and prevent the build up of fatty deposits in the liver and reduce inflammation. Fatty liver disease?? Beet off!!! A spesh mention that beets assist, not just the liver, an all over body detox thanks to the stimulation of glutathione (the #1 antioxidant in your bod!) which is crucial for the removal of toxins and heavy metals…the best blood purification process ever! 
• Apple - so it appears that an apple a day can keep the doc away! They boost healthy gut flora and help stimulate the digestive system which leads to an easier transition to the loo with nothing getting stuck along the way…no straining required. Thanks to malic acid in the apple, this helps open up the ducts in the liver, allowing it to be flushed easier.  Flush the liver and flush the loo…easy as a number 2! Apples are also a natural fat blocker so what’s not to love here!
• Carrot - one of our fav water soluble, high fibre, carotenoid rich, Vit A rich (essential for liver health), root veggies, they help rid the body of free radicals and an awesome flusher of toxins out of the body like a waterslide at Wet And Wild. Weeee! Not only that, they prevent the build up of fat and bile in the liver as they too, join the Detox waterslide. 
• Lemon Peel - as you can imagine by the stonger taste, the peel has a higher concentration of flavonoids than the inner part. Both are tart and face contorting however! These flavonoids are super powerful antioxidants that help fight the pesky free radicals to reduce inflammation, the risk of chronic disease such as heart disease and certain cancers. The high content of Vit C & D-limonene has been linked to a reduced risk of type 2 Diabetes and heart disease. Sourweet! 
• Orange Peel - apart form having the cool benefit of making your skin look vibrant and healthy, orange peel is jammed with antioxidants that help prevent oxidative stress, inflammation and combat toxic free radicals. No wonder footy kids get oranges as a secret weapon half time pick-me-up! They have the ability to produce detoxifying enzymes that flush out pollutants and rich in the flavonoid hesperidin which has been shown to maintain blood cholesterol and blood pressure levels. A happy heart is one with less inflammation and a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.  The peel contains phenolic compounds which may assist with prevention and treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
• Chicory Root - the root of goodness to your cholesterol levels! The dietary fibres and inulin may help curb bad cholesterol (LDL - low-density lipoproteins), meaning high levels could be reduced in the blood. High in beta-carotene, it can help prevent cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, inflammation, indigestion, constipation and liver detox. As an amazing prebiotic, it feeds the friendly bacteria in the gut.
• Galangal - this little antioxidant rich ripper can be anti-inflammatory, invigorate the circulatory system, protects the body against harmful microorganisms and bacteria and acts as an anticoagulant. It’s been shown to help reduce blood sugar levels and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels which may prevent diabetic complications linked to the heart. Good on ya gal!
• Ginger - long known for its medicinal health benefits for detoxification and heart health, rather than its beauty, ginger has the ability to assist with inflammation, poor digestion issues with its ability to cleanse the body of built-up waste and toxins in the liver and colon, circulation and aiding the prevention of blood clots. Obviously this is good! A blood clot in your heart is not ideal and can lead to a heart attack or stroke.  Ginger has been found to significantly reduce triglycerides and LDL cholesterol and raise the good HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol. As in galangal, ginger also may help improve blood sugar levels, helping type 2 diabetes sufferers. Note: when ginger and galangal are taken together, the benefits may multiply! A study have showed that there was pain reduction compared to a placebo group, showing promising results. 
• Milk Thistle - Used for hundreds of years for the purpose of supporting healthy liver function, including fatty liver disease, who are we to deny history’s discoveries! It has this cool flavonoid called silymarin that not only has anti-inflammatory & antioxidant properties, it helps protect the liver from toxins, including certain drugs such as paracetamol (Panadol), which can cause liver damage in high doses. 
• Rice Flour - The humble rice! It contains the all important & essential nutrient, choline, essential for a healthy liver, which has a key job of transporting cholesterol and triglycerides from the liver and throughout your entire body. This may help the prevention of fatty liver disease. Not only does it form the membranes around your cells, your brain and nervous system need it too for memory, mood regulation and muscle control. Choline deficiency may lead to liver damage but you can get what you need in while food food!

Why is beetroot so good?

Let's talk about beetroot – the star of our blend. It's not just a vegetable; it's a nutrient powerhouse, feeding those artery-lining cells like a gourmet chef. The result? Nitric oxide production increases, helping your arteries stay unclogged and as open as an all-night diner. 

Fatty liver disease? Consider it served an eviction notice! CleanEm Detox has been created to help reverse its effects and help to improve liver function.  The whole food ingredients bind to the fat in the liver and seriously give it some stern marching orders. “Can we stay” they say? It’s a hard NO from me!

But that's not all – your cardiovascular system gets a boost too! Thanks to beetroot, you're getting better oxygen exchange than a champion sprinter. It can be used as a pre-workout power-up, making you work harder, faster, and stronger than a caffeinated kangaroo.

So, say goodbye to liver sluggishness and hello to the whole food CleanEm Detox that's going to have your liver & cardiovascular system doing the cha-cha with joy!

Lets get all techy and dive deeper into the benefits of Nitric Oxide in beetroot!

Nitric oxide, often referred to as NO, (very unfortunate of you ask us because after reading this, it will be a hard YES!) plays a crucial role in the humble beet. Beetroots are rich in dietary nitrates, which the body can convert into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is a gas molecule that serves as a signalling molecule in various physiological processes within the body. Its beety role is pretty cool:

• Vasodilation: Nitric oxide is a potent vasodilator, which, in easy speak, means it helps relax and widen blood vessels. This allows for improved blood flow throughout your bod, reducing blood pressure and, sending via Express, the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells. Better blood flow can also support heart health and overall circulation. 
• Athletic Performance: Nitric oxide, derived from dietary nitrates found in beetroots, is known to enhance exercise performance. A natural wonder! It helps improve oxygen utilisation in muscles during those dreaded burpees or any physical activity you enjoy, potentially increasing endurance (just one more!) and reducing the oxygen cost of exercise. Air when you need it most is pretty handy I say!
• Cardiovascular Health: By promoting vasodilation, nitric oxide can help maintain healthy blood pressure levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. It also assists in preventing the formation of blood clots. That’s a definite YES.
• Antioxidant Effects: Nitric oxide also exhibits antioxidant properties, which means it can help counteract the effects of harmful free radicals and oxidative stress in the body. Helping to clean up life's mess!
• Anti-Inflammatory: Nitric oxide plays a role in regulating the body's inflammatory response. By modulating inflammation, it can contribute to various aspects of health, including reducing the risk of chronic diseases.

In summary, the nitric oxide generated from dietary nitrates in beetroot has a positive impact (YES!) on cardiovascular health, exercise performance, and overall well-being. We always talk about superfoods so it makes sense they have a superhero molecule, helping to keep things flowing smoothly. So, whether you're running a marathon or just trying to maintain good health, nitric oxide from beets can be your trusty sidekick.

How does CleanEm Detox help the Cardio system AND be a good pre-workout?

Did you know that the humble beetroot holds the ability to boost your cardiovascular system, sports performance and muscle recovery? Easy as 1, 2, 3!

1. Heart Health Haven: Beetroots are like the wingman your heart never knew it needed. They're loaded with nitrates, which the body converts into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is a superstar when it comes to cardiovascular health. It acts as a vasodilator, relaxing blood vessels and promoting healthy blood flow. So, when you take your daily dose of CleanEm Detox, it's like sending your heart a love letter. Lower blood pressure and improved circulation? Check and check! 

2. Sports Performance Overdrive: Nitric oxide, our friend from before, plays another role – helpful for turbocharging your muscles by increasing delivery of blood flow and oxygen. The result? CleanEm Detox star, the beet, may boost your endurance! Imagine running, (hahaha most of you just said NO…I could hear it! Stick with me…) cycling, or lifting weights with a tank full of oxygen-rich blood. You'll feel like an energiser bunny with endless stamina, breaking your personal records and going the extra mile. Simply take a scoop 2-3 hours before your workout or activity and feel the difference. As its not a fast acting (nor fake caffeinated crap) supplement, natural beetroot needs time to get into your system before performance. 

3. Muscle Recovery Marvel:  After a good workout, sometimes your muscles feel like they need some love. The DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) are REAL! Hurts to sit on the loo (ohhhh my quads!) or abs hurt to laugh?  Here's where CleanEm Detox beetroots shine again. They're packed with antioxidants and nitrates that help combat muscle fatigue and reduce inflammation. Your muscles recover faster so you can get back to laughing pain-free…oh…I mean…training sooner.

Investing in your overall health is a venture worth pursuing.

We're all about embracing "whole foods" for their healing power, just as Mother Nature intended. It's about celebrating the rich tapestry of nutrients from a wide array of sources, rather than putting all your apples in one dietary barrel.

Will my pee or poo turn purple after drinking beetroot?

You might wonder if you're about to unleash your inner unicorn when taking CleanEm Detox but fear not, your pee or poo probably won't turn purple when you've embraced this beetroot magic blend!

For some of you, Beetroot’s deep colour ,from betanin, might add a touch of rosiness to your bathroom routine, but don't be alarmed. It's perfectly natural and a sign that your body is processing the nutrients from the CleanEm Detox blend. It’s just the beetroot saying, "I was here!". Its actually got a name. The phenomenon is called beeturia and can take up to 48 hours to pass. So, no super purple reign, just a bit of healthy colour infusion! 

Can I take CleanEm Detox in the morning?

Absolutely! As it has the ability to increase the oxygen through your system, a morning dose can help wake up those sleepy organs and set you up for the day, helping you feel energised and active.

Can I do a detox while pregnant or breastfeeding?

While a detox is awesome, it's best to consult your doctor before going all-in on this beetroot blend or any new change during these precious times. After all, whether you are growing or breastfeeding, there’s a tiny human involved!

Will a detox interfere with my medications?

Beetroot can be a powerful sidekick but it may not play nice with your meds.  A detox may interact with certain medications, such as blood pressure, so always consult your medical practitioner if you are on any prescription medications or are worried in any way.

How long should I do a CleanEm Detox for optimal results?

The duration of a detox can vary depending on where you’re at. Some of you may opt for short, three to five-day detoxes if you have been living the high life and in the party season, while others incorporate Detox into their regular diet for ongoing benefits.  We suggest incorporating CleanEm Detox into your daily routine for approx 35 days to get the most benefits and beyond if you are loving the clean feeling! We recommend a Detox at least every few months.

Can I eat other foods while on a detox?

Absolutely! CleanEm Detox can be your co-stars, but don't forget to share the spotlight with a cast of other nutritious foods. It's a whole meal deal and essential to maintain a balanced and nutritious diet. Beets play well with others so keep the menu diverse for a balanced detox experience. Variety is the spice of (beet) life!

Can I take any of the other PlantEm Essentials range at the same time?

100% yes!  They can all be combined into one super nutritious drink/smoothie or however you like to take it. Enjoy the powerhouse of nutrients all at once!

Will a CleanEm Detox help me lose weight?

Detox can support weight loss as part of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle, but it's not a magical solution for shedding the kg’s.

Beets are incredible, but they won't make you disappear like a magician's bunny overnight. Sustainable weight loss needs more than just a detox – it's a marathon, not a sprint. Be kind to yourself and take it slow. Making healthy changes can make a huge difference and adding CleanEm Detox to your daily routine will certainly help your weight loss journey.

Can I do a beetroot detox if I have a history of kidney stones?

If kidney stones are your arch-nemesis, consult your doc before summoning the power of  CleanEm Detox, as beets contain oxalates, which can contribute to stone formation. Safety first!

Will a beetroot detox improve my athletic performance?

You can still rock your workouts during a CleanEm Detox as beetroot is known for its potential to enhance athletic performance due to its nitrate content. So sweat it out as usual and be prepared for a little extra pep in your step, courtesy of the beetroot boost! Just listen to your body, and you'll be just fine.

Will a CleanEm Detox transform me into a superhero?

While beets and its BFF’s in our blend are super, you might not develop a cape. But hey, you'll feel like a healthier, cleaner, more energetic, vibrant version of yourself, and that's pretty super, right? 

Remember, while the CleanEm Detox is fantastic, there's no one-size-fits-all detox solution. If you've got health concerns or specific conditions, it's best to chat with a healthcare pro.
