Spending years struggling with a growing arsenal of health-destroying conditions that ranged from fi bromyalgia, hypothyroidism, candida and rosacea to cystitis and tons of allergies, Lisa decided to turn to nutrition and lifestyle to reclaim her health. Then pursuing her education with the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, she turned her personal quest into her vocation with the launch of Whole Health Designs.

Not only will you feel better, you’ll look better too!
Review: This is a quick, easy read with a LOT of wonderful recipes. There is a detox plan for each season, along with a menu and a shopping list---and a recipe for everything on the menu.
There are a variety of foods included in the detox recipes, and most of them are foods which I eat on a regular basis already. Some of the recipes might even find their way into our regular meal plans.
I love that this book is filled with so many full-color pictures. The pictures of some of the foods make them even more enticing than just reading about them.
I am planning to start with the summer detox, and to detox a few times a year to keep myself at the highest level of health, as well as improving my everyday nutritional intake.

I WROTE THIS BOOK FOR YOU BECAUSE…
I know first-hand how it feels to be overwhelmed with all the diets, quick fix plans out there in the world.
I obsessed about my weight, and wrote endless to-do lists. I counted calories and carbs, took all kinds of vitamins, and worked out until I nearly keeled over. All the while, I dreamed of the day I’d be lean and fit and full of energy and confidence – the day I’d finally feel like I was “good enough”.
Nothing worked though. I’d start off well, and then a few weeks later, I’d go straight back to my old ways. Each time I dieted, it made me feel more and more exhausted, depressed and out of shape, as I beat myself up for not having the willpower to make it work.
And even though I was trying so hard to be healthier, the reality was that I was getting sicker. I had chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, rosacea, chronic cystitis, candida, thyroid issues and IBS… all before I was 30! I didn’t want to take meds, so I tried holistic therapies, got certified in holistic nutrition and my world changed.
I developed my own detox programs that I based on anti-inflammatory foods (fruits, veggies, and dark leafy greens), and started limiting inflammatory foods (dairy, gluten, caffeine, alcohol and processed sugar).
And for the first time in life, I started to see the results I’d dreamed of. I lost weight, felt lean and light, and had pep in my step. But best of all, I started feeling at ease around food. Instead of looking for quick fixes and diet programs, I started listening to my body, and letting it tell me what it needed.
For years, I used food as an enemy and after stepping back and truly listening to my body, I am now free of letting bad habits and twisted views of food run my life. I want you to experience the same freedom… and I’m here to guide you every step of the way with Go Clean, Sexy You.
Plus I want you to feel AMAZING!
Based on the results of the thousands of women (and super cool dudes) AND my own experience, here’s what you can expect:
