Congratulationson choosing to kick-startyour ALOHA lifestyle!
Congratulations on choosing to participate in ALOHA’s Detox Program! It’s a huge—HUGE—step to take ownership of your health and vitality. Making sense of the conflicting information regarding which products and foods are best for optimal health can be both overwhelming and confusing. But know this: nutrition is an incredibly powerful tool and when incorporated correctly, making shifts inyour diet can result in profound benefitsto your health.
Over the next 14 days, you’ll be adhering to a diet abundant in clean, real, wholesome foods, like fresh fruits and vegetables, lean, pasture-raised animal protein, seeds, smoothies and juices. And, as much as this will be an “integration” diet, you will need to “eliminate” some dietary health offenders. Of course, you’ll also be incorporating ALOHA into your daily routine!
ALOHA products are designed to fit into every type of lifestyle, but work best when used in conjunction with a nutritious diet, moderate exercise routine, and tools to manage stress. This program includes ALOHA Protein, ALOHA Daily Good Greens, ALOHA Foundation capsules, and ALOHA Clean Tea.

What isinflammation?
“It might come as a surprise to you, butmost of us are walking around in a state ofsystemic inflammation.”
In order to feel incredible and look fabulous, we’ve got to reduce that — which is why this program was designed with this goal in mind: lower inflammation!
The inflammatory process is integral to our survival; the ability to fight off a viral or bacterial infection is dependent on this response. However, inflammation can wreak havoc on our bodies and has been cited as playing a central role in many chronic diseases like heart disease, Diabetes, even many cancers. It also happens to be a dieter’s worst nightmare because systemic inflammation leads to water retention and swelling as a reaction to the inflammatory chemicals being perpetually released. Stress, exposure to toxins, and most importantly, a poor diet create inflammation. Luckily, our bodies recover relatively quickly and when we create the right internal environment
through proper diet, exercise and stress management, our bodies have a magnificent ability to heal — allowing you to look and feel your absolute best.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
What causesinflammation?
Diets rich in processed foods, refined carbohydrates and stimulants contribute to systemic inflammation, as does a sedentary lifestyle, stress, and unresolved emotional trauma, among other things. Interestingly, food allergies, sensitivities and intolerances are some of the most common— and often overlooked—causes of systemic inflammation. We’re not talking anaphylaxis; but the ones that provoke subtler and delayed reactions.
Because this type of an allergic reaction is so delayed—sometimes up to 36 or 48 hours—it’s next to impossible to associate the reaction with a certain food; even harder to isolate the exact culprit.
The symptoms of these types of allergies range from fluid retention, weight gain, fatigue and sinus congestion to mood swings, eczema, headaches and joint pain—symptoms that as a society, we’ve come to accept as part of the aging process and modern living. Since we want to reduce overall inflammation through this program, we’re asking you to remove foods that many people might have low-grade sensitivities, allergies or intolerances to.
In a greater effort to reduce your overall inflammatory load, we’ve included ALOHA Foundation as part of the program. Turmeric gets its bright orange color from curcumin, one of nature’s most potent anti-inflammatory agents. Used in India for thousands of years, this rhizome (related to ginger) has been studied for its effect on various diseases, ranging from Ulcerative Colitis and psoriasis to Alzheimer’s disease and pancreatic cancer. In addition, black pepper helps with the absorption of turmeric. Also anti-inflammatory is the Ayurvedic herb guduchi, which has been shown to help with your body’s stress response. It’s really a kick-ass combination and we’re psyched for you to use it! Take one ALOHA Foundation capsule daily.

TIPS!Coconut Oil is made of medium chain triglycerides, which are used - and burned
by our bodies quickly and efficiently.
A lot of us have food sensitivities we’re not even aware of, which is why we’veleft out the common offenders like dairy, gluten, eggs, chicken and soy. We want to give
your body a break from inflammation.

MealBreakdown
To make things easier, you’ll be drinking a smoothie each morning, made with ALOHA’s kickass protein powder! We sourced the best possible ingredients to create a protein powder that tastes delicious, dissolves well and has the nutrients to sustain your energy for hours. Made from pea protein, hemp seeds and pumpkin seeds, it’s low-allergen because we’ve left out the soy and dairy. Hemp seeds contain a perfect ratio of all your Omega 3-6-9 fatty acids so your skin will glow and your joints will move comfortably. We’ve included a bunch of smoothie recipes for you to choose from, but feel free to use your own if you have a favorite.
“Whenever possible, make lunch your biggest meal.”
The less food your body has to digestlater in the day (at dinner, for example),the better.

CarbohydratesMeal Breakdown
Greens and non-starchy vegetables should make up at least half of your plate at both lunch and dinner. That might sound like a lot at first, but with all the delicious recipes we’ve included, we bet you’llwant even more.
We all know we’re supposed to be eating our fruits and veggies but many of us still struggle with getting enough in each day. In fact, many of us aren’t coming even close to the recommended amount. And since fruits and vegetables (especially the green ones) are the superstars of nutrition, we’ve made things easier for you.
“ALOHA Daily Good is the easiest (and arguably most delicious) way to up yourveggie intake.”
You’re going to use a packet every day in this program. How you use it and when is up to you. But, we like to throw it into our smoothies or even just mix it with water for a mid-morning boost.
Since we need more fuel during the day than at night, lunch should include a½ cup of either a starchy vegetable or an “allowed” gluten-free grain (brown rice, quinoa, etc.). Be mindful of sticking to the ½ cup serving size—it might be an adjustment at first!

DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
ProteinMeal Breakdown
Lean protein should fill up about ¼ of your plate—aim for 3-5 ounces at each meal. It’s very important that you consume protein whenever eating, including snacks. Why? Well, among many other qualities, protein anchors blood sugar; it keeps it from spiking or dropping dramatically.
Why is this important? Stable blood sugar is an absolutely integral component of health.
Let Us Explain
Many of us have heard of insulin, usually as it relates to Diabetes; we all know at least one person who needs to give themselves shots of insulin prior to eating. But insulin isn’t just important to diabetics—it’s vital to all of us. Understanding its role in blood sugar regulation is essential to weight management and overall health.
When we eat something that contains carbohydrates—and remember, carbohydrates aren’t villains if they’re the “good” ones found in fruits and vegetables—our blood sugar rises. When our blood sugar rises, our pancreas
secretes insulin. Insulin signals the body’s cells to absorb the glucose/sugar in the blood that’s making it rise. As the cells begin to absorb the glucose, blood sugar lowers back to its normal state. But here’s the thing about insulin: it tells our bodies to store fat and is incredibly inflammatory when secreted continuously (as in the case of a sugar/carbohydrate-dense diet and/or constant grazing)!
What does this have to do with protein? Protein helps control how much our blood sugar spikes when ingesting carbohydrates. In addition, protein also helps to keep blood sugar from dropping too low—if you’re someone who gets sweaty, jittery, or dizzy if you haven’t eaten in a while, you might have low blood sugar.
Bottom line is this...“Make sure to eat protein at every meal and include some in your daily snacks as well.”

FatsMeal Breakdown
If there’s one thing we want you to embrace and carry with you after these three weeks have passed, it’s this: don’t be scared of eating fat! It’s a shame that most of us associate dietary fat with becoming fat—it’s likely due to semantics since it’s the same word—including adequate amounts of healthy fats into your diet is essential to feeling and looking your best.
When did dietary fat become the villain? Well, in the 1990s, there was a lot of research that seemed to suggest a diet low in fat was the most heart-protective. This wave of fat-fear gave way to products like Snackwells—loaded
with sugar/carbohydrates but fat-free; millions of people believed that eating fat-free was the highway to health and skinny jeans. But guess what? They were wrong. So wrong, in fact, that this time period corresponded to a dramatic increase in the diagnoses of both insulin sensitivity and diabetes. In the last few years, research has increasingly demonstrated that dietary fat—even saturated fat—and cholesterol do not correlate with heart disease; rather, diets that are rich in processed starches and sugars increase risk for heart disease, diabetes, and other diseases.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
FatsMeal Breakdown
“Dietary Fats are absolutely necessary to overall health for many reasons.”
Vitamins A, D, E and K are all fat-soluble, meaning they need to dissolve first in fat before our bodies can use them. Dietary fats keep our hair shiny, our skin glowing and nails strong. In terms of hunger, fats keep up full: they satiate. Have you ever eaten a significant amount of boneless skinless chicken breast only to realize that you’re starving not long after? That’s because there’s barely any fat to anchor your hunger.
Sources Of Healthy Fats
Coconut Oil
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Avocado
Flax Oil
Walnuts, Almonds, Pecans
Fatty Fish Like Salmon and Mackerel
Grass-Fred Beef, Bison and Lamb
This should be obvious but we feel so strongly about it that we want to call attention to it just in case.
“On this program - and life in general - you must make every effort to avoidtrans-fats.”Trans-fats have been manufactured in factories by manipulating the shape of the molecule. It’s now mandatory that a Nutrition Facts label includes the amount of trans-fat, but many food companies have sneaky ways of manipulating the count. A good rule of thumb is this: “partially hydrogenated oil” or anything “hydrogenated” is a telltale sign that something contains trans-fats.

WaterMeal Breakdown
The importance of drinking adequate amounts of pure, filtered water cannot be overstated. Unfortunately, most of us don’t come close to drinking the recommended eight glasses each day, which is why a lot of us are walking around partially dehydrated. While tap water is certainly fine in a pinch, filtered is best—and alkaline water, if you can find it, is even better than that. If you don’t already own a water filter (such as Brita), now would be a good time to invest in one. If you’re set on bottled water, brands like Fiji, Essential, Smart Water and Icelandic are best; the bottles are free of the harmful chemicalBPA and they’re alkaline. Whichever you choose, you must drink a minimum of two liters a day. If you’re not used to consuming this much water, it will be difficult at first, but after a few days, your body will have adjusted and you’ll actually crave it. The best way to determine if you’re drinking enough water is through the color of your urine. Ideally, it should be clear; the more yellow it is, the greater degree of dehydration. In terms of weight loss, did you know that most of us mistake thirst for
hunger? It’s always smart to drink a glass of water when you’re feeling hungry—whether before a meal or in between. If the hunger subsides after you’ve finished, you might have just been thirsty. If you’re still hungry, go ahead and eat something but don’t be surprised when you fill up more quickly than anticipated: a glass of water takes up a lot of room in the stomach!
Tips to increase water intake
Sip herbal teas throughout the day
Carry a water bottle with you to work, the
gym, etc
Add some fruit or veggies to your water!
Fresh ideas include:
Sliced Cucumbers, fresh berries, orange
slices - or a combination.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
CaffeineMeal Breakdown
In our fast-paced, multi-tasking world, it’s pretty common that caffeine has become an indispensable tool for a lot of people. For the next 14 days, however, it’s really important that you give it up. If you’re someone who can’t remember the last time they went a day without caffeine, you might experience headaches from withdrawal, but trust that they’re temporary; they won’t last more than a day or two and you might not evenget one at all.
So what, exactly, is the problem with caffeine? It’s a stimulant. Stimulants provide the body with a false sense of energy and stamina. When we feel tired, that’s our body’s way of communicating to us that its energy reserves are low, and that it hasn’t rested enough. So when we drink caffeine—or ingest any type of stimulant—it’s demanding that our body come up with energy it doesn’t have.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
CaffeineMeal Breakdown
Where does the energy come from?
Our adrenal glands! Each of us were born with two of them (each sits atop a kidney) and they produce hormones that are essential to life. You might associate adrenal glands with stress response and with good reason: many of the adrenal hormones, like cortisol and epinephrine are secreted during times of stress. Our bodies were designed to “fight and flight,” but in our modern world, this response can be provoked from everyday stress—both emotional, physiologic, and dietary, as is the case with caffeine.
Sources of Caffeine
Coffee, Including Decaffeinated
Black, Green, White Teas
Chocolate
Sodas, Even Caffeine-Free
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
How ToEat?
So we’ve talked about what you should focus on eating during these three weeks, but what about how you’re eating? This isn’t given much attention but it’s just as important. You could be doing everything right in terms of which foods you’re choosing to fuel your body, but if you’re stuck in patterns of mindless eating, it will be very difficult to make—and sustain any lasting changes. If you’ve ever found yourself ravenous with hunger shortly after you’ve consumed a large, nutritious meal, you’re likely someone who regularly engages in mindless eating.
“What do we mean by mindless eating?Just what it sounds like:eating mindlessly.”
Examples include eating while working at your desk, watching television, standing in front of the open refrigerator. There are various factors contributing to our mind registering that we’re eaten enough, that we’re full. Research has shown that our minds need at least 20 minutes to register that we’re full—that’s a long time, especially considering that most of us finish our food within five to 10 minutes. In addition, our minds need to process that it’s been “meal time”. If we’re eating at the same time that we’re responding to emails or focused on a television show, our mind isn’t able to process that it’s been fed, even if plenty of food has been consumed—and so you’ll likely not feel satisfied and be hungry within a short amount of time.
Make an effort these three weeks to really pay attention to what you’re eating and when you’re eating. Chew your food well. Be aware of the different sensations in your mouth provided by various foods. Set a dinner table, light some candles. If you do this regularly, you’ll notice that the familiar hunger pangs won’t be as consistent—and it’s very likely that you’ll feel fullwith less food.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
WeightLoss
As you know by now, these 14 days are a kick-start to a healthier lifestyle. Some of you might be looking to lose weight quickly, so it’s important to note that weight loss is not the focus of this program. However, it is very likely that you will lose weight if you follow this program thoroughly. Why? Well, by eliminating commonly allergenic foods, incorporating a stress reduction plan, getting adequate sleep, and getting at least 150 minutes of exercise each week, you’ll reduce inflammation—and weight loss almost always follows suit. It is very likely that you’ll find yourself using the bathroom more than you’re used to, but that’s normal. And actually, it’s a great sign! A lot of people are quick to shrug off losing “water weight”, but they shouldn’t. This indicates that you’re lowering your inflammatory load and that, as we know, leads to lasting weight loss.
If weight loss is your focus, there are additional strategies that will increase the likelihood even more.
These Include
Drinking at least 2-3 liters of pure filtered
water each day
Making sure to get at least 7-8 hours of
sleep each night, ideally more
Reduce the amount of starchy vegetables
you’re eating - or leave them out all
together
Aim for 10,000 steps each day (correlates
to about five miles)
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
RegularExercise
Engaging in regular exercise is an important cornerstone of any healthy lifestyle. At the minimum, you should aim for about 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week. A lot of people are intimidated by exercise: they convince themselves that they need to belong to a gym or they don’t know how or they don’t have time. It’s understandable to feel that way, but we are here to be your support, motivation and cheering squad. Exercise doesn’t need to be intimidating and can fit into even the busiestof schedules.
Walking is one of the best forms of exercise—it actually can burn a higher percentage of fat than running; it’s completely free andeveryone knows how to do it! If you’re someone who can’t carve out a 30-45 minute chunk of time, that’s okay: split it up. Taking just 10 minutes to walk around your neighborhood in the morning, againin the afternoon, and again after dinner adds up to 30 minutes! And for a lot of people, it’s more manageable to break it up into smaller chunks of time.
Investing in a pedometer is one of the best ways to self-motivate. It doesn’t need to be anything fancy; many smartphones now offer tracking functions if you’d prefer not to purchase another item. The gold standard for health—and even weight loss—is 10,000 steps each day. That amounts to about five miles each day, but don’t get scared: you’re likely to walk more than you think you will on most days. However, having that goal in mind and being able to track progress really makes a difference. If you’ve been living a sedentary lifestyle, be kind to yourself and set a more manageable goal. Instead of 10,000 steps as a goal, maybe your start goal should be 5,000 steps—you’ll be surprised how quickly you’ll be able to increase how much you’re walking each day!

MorningRitual
In Ayurveda, there is a concept called ama. In essence, ama, is the energetic expression of our bodies’ toxic load. Individual variations account for the differences in how ama is physically expressed: some might experience back pain, while others have gastrointestinal distress. If you were to have a consultation with an Ayurvedic physician, he or she would ask to see your tongue within minutes of meeting with you.
In Ayurveda—and other ancient healing systems—the tongue is a roadmap of our health, with different areas corresponding to different organ systems; different patterns in certain areas then correspond to different diagnoses. Waking up in the morning with an excessively coated tongue usually indicates sluggish digestion and/or toxins in the colon; this coating is ama.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
MorningRitual
“Tounge scraping is an excellent way to remove toxins before brushing your teeth and forcing all those toxins and bacteria back into your system.”
If you don’t have a tongue scraper, they can be found in many health food stores. Or, you can use a teaspoon. Simply drag the scraper or spoon in one long stroke from back to front, and then rinse the scraper. Repeat as many times as needed—you’ll usually need to do this anywhere between three to five times. While you might find this to be an odd ritual at first, we’re willing to bet you’ll get into it and be grateful for its addition.
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
Meditation
It seems that “meditation” is the latest buzzword with everyone from Hollywood celebrities to leaders of Fortune 500 companies touting its powerful benefits. And with good reason: regular practice of meditation has been proven to decrease anxiety, improve emotional stability, increase creativity, develop intuition, gain clarity, among many others. So if meditation really is this magic bullet, why doesn’t everyone practice it? Great question! At ALOHA, we think everyone should; it’s one of the best things you can do for yourself and is an integral component of a holistic lifestyle.
It’s easy to be intimidated by the idea of meditation because it’s not yet well understood by the masses, although it’s getting there. It’s important to remember that it isn’t easy and those who have practiced for years still struggle with it; that’s why it’s called practice. So the first thing you must do is release yourself from the expectation of perfection.
There are dozens of great, helpful apps that are incredibly effective. If you approach meditation with a goal of sitting for 30-40 minutes each day, you’re going to get frustrated— very quickly. Meditation is referred to as a “practice” for this exact reason: it’s hard. It takes continued dedication and commitment and it’s not something that is ever really mastered. The best thing you can do it to start small—even two minutes! Don’t shrug off the potential for benefits reaped from a mere two minutes—we can even point to research that backs it up!
DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
Gratitude
Meditation comes in various forms, including the traditional sitting meditation, as we discussed above. Carving out time each day to journal, really express yourself, can be considered a different form of meditation since it’s an alternate way to quiet your mind. A wonderful and rewarding addition to your daily routine is to begin a “gratitude practice.” By “gratitude practice,” we mean setting time aside to really reflect on the things for which we’re grateful. Beginning and keeping a “gratitude journal” is a simple, effective way integrating this practice into your life.
“Treat yourself to a nice new journal that you’ll use exclusively for this purpose.”
Set aside time—even if it’s only five minutes—to reflect each day. It might be difficult at first because, unfortunately, this isn’t something we’re accustomed to doing. Being grateful for things like your health and having food on your table is incredibly important and should not be overlooked. However, research shows that a gratitude practice is most effective when our focus shifts towards the smaller things. Being grateful for a day’s blue sky or that you had lunch with a best friend are great examples. Aim for three to four points of gratitude each day.

DETOX PROGRAM14 Day
INGREDIENTS — SERVES 4Squash “Pasta”1 spaghetti squash, halved and de-seeded
4 cloves of garlic, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
Avocado Pesto1 cup organic leafy greens (we like to use basil, spinach, and parsley)
½ cup pine nuts
2 avocados
2 garlic cloves
½ cup organic extra virgin olive oil
2 organic lemons, juiced
Himalayan sea salt, to taste
PREPARATIONPreheat oven to 350°. Slice the squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds. Coat the inside of squash with the olive oil and garlic. Place squash in a baking dish and bake for about an hour. When ready, squash should be tender and in the inside should “flake away” in noddle-like strings.
While the squash is baking, prepare the pesto by processing all the ingredients together in a food processor until smooth.
When ready, remove squash from the oven and cool slightly. With a fork, “rake” the squash; this will create a spaghetti-like texture. Add the pesto to the squash and toss well.
