A REAL Detox from Everything Food Related

I started the Martha's Vineyard Detox last weekend and it's paying off. I feel great, I have much more energy and I feel good about how clean my body and mind seem to be. But I can't help thinking how hard it is to do a REAL detox when you are still bombarded with advertising and sneaky ways advertisers use to make you cheat. It's shameful to say the least. The food and beverage industry have taken steps to reduce the amount of advertising that focus on the very unhealthy foods and shifted to advertising the foods that SEEM to be more healthy. But are they? 21 Pounds in 21 Days, the book I'm currently reading, says No. The advertising dollars have shifted to those more healthy looking foods and beverages, not because they care, but because those products are more expensive and in turn the advertising generates more ROI for them. The products you read that say "Fat Free", "Light", "Smart Choice", "Healthy Choice", etc. are still full of the artificial ingredients, sodium, etc. that we are supposed to stay away from. Detoxing is not about reducing the overall calorie intake but reducing the kinds of foods you put into your body. Our meals are 6 times the size they were a generation ago. What?? Wow. Maybe I'll move to a farm with no internet, cable or stores...yeah right!! That would be a true detox.
