It's that time of the year. What presents are we going to buy for our family? How will we budget our shopping time and the quality time we spend with loved ones? How we’re going to get along with our family? What can I take for a holiday energy fix to help get through the hectic holidays? What impact will all those holiday treats have on my diet? Did I have enough healthy holiday treats to counter-balance my holiday weight gain? What do all of these questions have in common? These are all things we typically have on our minds at this time of year. But new year looms closer and closer, thankfully, we can help. If you're ready to focus on health and fitness after the holidays, we’ve got a great detox and diet plan for you. While no one would recommend unchecked binging throughout the rest of the holidays, it’s helpful and comforting to know that little slips and indulgences don’t have to completely derail any good habits you’ve already developed. If you’re looking to make a bigger change toward a healthy regimen in the new year, the same ideas apply. Whether you’re looking to rebound from a gluttonous holiday season or develop new healthy habits, we’ve got some tips. They start by taking a look at documented methods for enhancing your body’s natural detoxification system.

Cut back on junk food

Eating habits may have gone astray over the holidays but its never too late to harness your inner "health nutritionist" by changing your eating habits. Pull away from the sugary treats to more sensible snacks and regular scheduled balanced meals. It's time to stop sabotaging your fat-burning efforts. Avoid the midnight or late-night cravings by eating nutritionally balanced meals and snacks. Now is the time to try some new healthy recipes  

Cut back on drinking

You may already be thinking of limiting your alcohol after one last raucous night on New Year’s Eve. Here are a few more reasons to do so. Upwards of 90% of alcohol is metabolized in your liver, according to the US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health. Liver enzymes convert alcohol to acetaldehyde, which is a known toxin. There are a whole host of other health issues related to excessive drinking. And, of course, alcohol can restrict fat loss and lead to poor choices—and not just those that are food-related!  

Up the water

Most people don’t drink enough water, and nature’s most basic ingredient is crucial not only for your body's detox diet plan but for ongoing health and maximum performance of almost every party of your body. Being properly hydrated lubricates the joints, aids in digestion, promotes oxygen delivery to different areas of the body, promotes healthy skin, regulates body temperature, helps you maintain good blood pressure, helps keep the kidneys in good shape, and even helps boosts performance during exercise. Water can also “cushion the brain, spinal cord, and other sensitive tissues,” said Medical News Today. “Dehydration can affect brain structure and function. It is also involved in the production of hormones and neurotransmitters. Prolonged dehydration can lead to problems with thinking and reasoning.” That doesn’t mean you have to turn into a fish. While everyone’s tolerance is different, many health experts recommend the average person drink eight eight-ounce glasses of water, or about two liters, per day.

Get some sleep

“Ensuring adequate and quality sleep each night is a must to support your body’s health and natural detoxification system,” said Healthline. “Sleeping allows your brain to reorganize and recharge itself, as well as remove toxic waste byproducts that have accumulated throughout the day. With sleep deprivation, your body does not have time to perform those functions, so toxins can build up and affect several aspects of health.” SlimTox helps with appetite control, body toning, digestive health, and restful sleep.  

Workout regularly

Developing a regular workout schedule will start and keep you burning those extra holiday calories that can get your detox diet plan into the coming year. While there are plenty of options for keeping fit, sometimes its better to join a group or work with a personal trainer. You may even want to try a cross-fit class to see if it is for you! Don't forget to include an ab workout. Most important be sure to include a well-rounded workout that can target all the main muscles of your body to get you going on the track of better health faster.  

Nutritional supplements

The New Year is the perfect time to incorporate a new health regimen that includes supplements to help you reach your goals. The combination of LIPO-DREX™, a revolutionary supplement that is formulated for total body fat loss and maximum calorie burning, and ULTRA CLA + OMEGA™, an advanced, non-stimulant fat loss and muscle-toning formula, is a powerful one-two punch for dropping the pounds and losing the inches in 2020. Adding a protein like 100% BIO-ACTIVE WHEY puts your Pounds, Inches and Eating Smart (PIES) goal within reach.  

LIPO-DREX™

Unlike other fat loss agents, LIPO-DREX from iSatori allows you to lose the fat while keeping the muscle—you can actually get lean with maximum fat loss while optimizing lean muscle at the same time. Anyone who has ever tried to cut knows how hard that is because slashing calories to lose weight often means muscle loss and diminished energy. This is accomplished through nutrient partitioning using C3GMax™. Nutrition partitioning means nutrients are available to use immediately; They’re driven into the muscles instead of stored in fat cells. This results in a faster leaning-out process, with harder muscles and an increase in your energy level. LIPO-DREX supercharges your metabolism while aiding in fat loss and energy production, giving you the boost you need, in and out of the gym.  

ULTRA CLA + OMEGA™

iSatori’s ULTRA CLA + OMEGA is an advanced fat loss and muscle-toning formula that makes the perfect complement to LIPO-DREX. Using a unique combination of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and omega 3-6-9 fatty acids, it can help target those stubborn, fat-prone areas, like the hips, butt, and thighs. And it does so without stimulants and while supporting healthy cholesterol levels, heart health, and vibrant hair, skin and nails.  

BIO-ACTIVE WHEY™

A serving of iSatori’s 100% BIO-ACTIVE WHEY™ protein powder contains 25 grams of high-quality whey protein from 100% whey. It’s the only whey protein that’s been fortified with BIO-GRO Bio-Active Peptides, which supports recovery, muscle growth, and overall performance beyond what other whey protein supplements can do—and with no amino spiking. Perhaps the best part is that it comes in three decadent flavors, Chocolate Sensation, Vanilla Swirl, and Cookies & Cream, so it tastes like a treat! Now that's a detox we can live with.
