🧠 DETOX + BRAIN ENERGY

A simple daily checklist

Drink water consistently

Low energy and brain fog are often not “in your head.” They’re signals that clearance and fuel need support.

FOUNDATION (NON-NEGOTIABLES)

⬜ Drink water consistently (aim pale yellow urine)

⬜ Eat enough protein (especially at breakfast)

⬜ Move your body daily (walks count)

⬜ Sleep 7–9 hours when possible

Brain energy starts with basics. No shortcuts.

GUT & LIVER SUPPORT

⬜ Daily bowel movement

⬜ Include fiber (veggies, seeds, or tolerated fiber)

⬜ Bitter foods or greens regularly

⬜ Avoid skipping meals all day

If waste doesn’t exit the gut, it recirculates.

METHYLATION & DETOX SUPPORT

⬜ Use active folate (5-MTHF, not folic acid)

⬜ Ensure adequate B vitamins (esp. B6, B12)

⬜ Magnesium daily

⬜ Eat sulfur foods as tolerated (eggs, garlic, crucifers)

Support pathways — don’t force them.

SWEAT WITH A PURPOSE

⬜ Strength train 2–3x/week

⬜ Light sweating regularly (exercise > saunas for most)

⬜ Shower after heavy sweat

Sweat is a tool, not the main detox organ.

TOXIN LOAD REDUCTION

⬜ Clean personal care products

⬜ Fragrance-free where possible

⬜ Avoid heating food in plastic

⬜ Improve indoor air when able

Less toxins in = less work for the brain.

NERVOUS SYSTEM SUPPORT

⬜ Deep breathing or down-regulation daily

⬜ Sunlight in the morning

⬜ Manage stress realistically (not perfectly)

A stressed nervous system burns through brain energy.
