The Clean Detox Program
We have the power to heal ourselves by changing the way we eat, move, and think. Clean is not another fad diet or quick fix. This program will help you discover what foods offer you health and vitality and what foods trigger dis-ease. This program brings together elements of Functional Medicine, Ayurveda, and powerful nutrition combined with coaching to create to help you find your optimal health.
Our group cleanse follows The Clean Program, which is based on the New York Times bestseller, Clean by Dr. Alejandro Junger. In the book, Dr. Junger explores how we have moved from a society that once ate food that was grown locally and seasonally to a culture that eats “food-like products” that have the potential to make us sick.
The purpose of the Clean Program is to identify and eliminate foods that may be causing an allergic and toxic reaction in your body. These reactions may express themselves in various ways, including fatigue, bloating, itchy skin, rashes, constipation, upset stomach, or sleep disturbances. By eliminating five of the most common food allergens, you not only get rid of symptoms, but also get to the root of what was making you feel bad in the first place. At the end of our group cleanse, you will begin the methodical process of Re-Introduction. This allows you to discern what foods may or may not be toxic triggers for you.
The Clean Program is not about deprivation. It gives you the structure to eat foods that are vitamin and nutrient rich, creating health and healing from the inside out.
It doesn’t matter if you are just starting your path to a healthier you or if you are way ahead on the road; the principles and practices in this book can take you to the next level and help you stay there for the long run.
The Clean Program is not just another quick-fix juice cleanse. It is doctor-developed and optimized to ensure you achieve the results you want.
More than 300 people have chosen SPY as their local Clean Home, and they have shared that being a part of a group was vital in their commitment to change and to completing the program (even if they were not perfect!).
We will begin the program with a free information session to explain the program and help you prepare for the first week.
Our CLEAN group cleanse program will be held entirely IN PERSON, and we will be offering weekly meetings for group support, tips and tricks.

You may be feeling concerned because you've heard cleansing is the same as crash dieting, that you will not lose weight, that you won't have any energy, or that you will be hungry and exhausted all the time. This cleanse is not designed to make you go hungry. Instead, during the 21 days, you will undo bad dietary habits, unveil hidden food allergies, build a healthy eating base, and gain more energy.
The Clean team offers meal and supplement kits for the 21 cleanse. You may purchase from Whole Foods, Brighter Day, Amazon or online from them if you would like to a no-brainer option for your cleanse. This is not required, as you may make your own soups or smoothies and source your own supplements.
The 21-Day Clean Kit Includes:
I have had a struggle my entire adult life with my level of LDL's, the bad cholesterol, and I take a prescription to help lower it. But, it always is higher than I would like. I eat the same foods as my wife, Susan, but get entirely different results.
Susan took the Clean program, and I decided that, rather than have two different meals, I would eat the "clean" meals, too. We even got a vita-mix to help with the process. I did not take the class, because I like to have a drink at the end of the day and was not willing to give that up.
So to the story, I get my cholesterol tested about once maybe twice a year. After she took the class, I noticed my LDL's were below 100- a rare event. So, I kept with the diet. Four months ago, the LDL's were 91, and today I had an appointment with my doctor to go over the latest results. They are 61, a decrease of more than 30%. There is no drug on the market that can lower it that much. Believe me, I have tried.
This is the lowest it has ever been in my life. It is as a result of the plant-based diet and the things we both learned from Clean. Thanks for introducing me to it. It is a life changing event and I feel much better on it.

I really enjoyed being part of the CLEAN program. I think the most important take away points are very simple: The first being is that we always have had control over what we eat, but we never consciously exercise that control. An elimination diet such as the CLEAN program allows that to be done not just once, but on an as needed basis. This is similar to going to yoga classes on regular basis, which gradually improves your control over your body. Continued practice improves on that. The second thing is that many of the people that at risk aren't aware that they really do not have these control mechanisms in place prior to suffering the secondary effects of obesity, diabetes, hypertension and heart disease. I also noticed that many of the participants are women, yet the people that are the most risk were actually not in the room. The fantastic thing is that the participants act as ambassadors within their own homes for their husbands and children; they take a great deal of understanding home with them. I believe that that is the biggest first step towards improving the general health in our homes and communities! Thanks again.
