Resetting Your Health: 30 Days to Healthy Living with Arbonne

The Arbonne 30 Days to Healthy Living program is more than just a detox—it’s an opportunity to tune into your body and reset your habits. Over the course of 30 days, you’ll eliminate common allergens and inflammatory foods while adding nutrient-dense, whole foods that nourish you from the inside out. This journey will help you become more in sync with how your body feels, giving you the clarity to make more intuitive choices moving forward.

Why 30 Days?

The 30-day reset is to temporarily eliminate foods that may be causing sensitivities or digestive issues, without you even realizing it. Many of us experience bloating, fatigue, or other discomforts from things like dairy, gluten, or processed sugars. By removing these triggers for 30 days, you give your body time to recalibrate. Then, when you slowly reintroduce foods, you’ll be able to clearly notice how they affect your body and your energy levels.

What to Avoid & What you can Substitute 

Equally important to what you’re adding is what you’ll avoid during these 30 days. Here’s a list of items you’ll be steering clear of:

Dairy: Often a common cause of bloating and digestive issues.

Substitute: Coconut Milk/Yogurt, Almond Milk and other nut milk, cashew sour cream.

Gluten: Found in many grains and can contribute to inflammation.

Substitute: brown rice tortillas, gluten free breads, gluten free pastas. I really like b-free tortillas 

White potatoes: High in carbohydrates and can spike blood sugar levels.

Substitute: Sweet Potatoes. They can be made into delicious baked fries, mashed or a yummy loaded potato!

Corn: Also high in carbohydrates and can spike blood sugar levels.

Substitute: Siete Tortillas are grain free and come in so many flavors including Churro Strips! 

Peanuts & Peanut butter: Peanuts are a common allergen and mold carrier.

Substitute: Almonds, Walnuts, Pecans, Pine nuts, Sesame seeds etc. Almond butter or any other type of nut butter.

Sugar, honey, maple syrup: These spike blood sugar levels and cause cravings.

Substitute: Coconut sugar or Stevia

Artificial Sweeteners: Avoid chemical-laden alternatives like aspartame and sucralose.

Substitute: Coconut sugar or Stevia

Coffee: A stimulant that can stress your adrenal glands and affect sleep.

Substitute: Fizz, Green and HerbalTeas, Coffee Flavored Protein,

Alcohol: Adds toxins and sugar to the body.

Substitute: Mocktails, Fizz, Bubbly

Vinegar: Except for apple cider vinegar, which is beneficial for digestion.

Substitute: Lemon juice, Lime juice or orange

Nitrates & MSG: Commonly found in processed foods and linked to health risks.

Substitute: Substitute: Instead of relying on store-bought seasonings that often contain nitrates and MSG, you can create your own flavorful, homemade spice blends. For example, Homemade Ranch Seasoning using ingredients like dried dill, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, and sea salt. Or try a Taco Seasoning mix made from cumin, paprika, chili powder, garlic, and onion powder.

Soy: Except for tempeh if you are vegan, as soy can interfere with hormones.

Farm-Raised Fish: Often contains contaminants and fewer nutrients than wild-caught fish.

Non Free-Range Chicken & Turkey: Opt for ethically raised and hormone-free meat.

What to Add

During these 30 days, you’ll focus on adding wholesome, unprocessed foods that fuel your body and encourage optimal health. Here’s a list of foods you’ll be incorporating:

Establishing New Habits

Throughout this program, you’re not just eliminating foods for the sake of it—you’re learning to create new habits. Whether it’s choosing almond milk over dairy, or swapping artificial sweeteners for natural alternatives, these changes help build a foundation for long-term wellness. 

You’ll also notice that as you remove things like sugar and processed carbs, your cravings for them will diminish, and you’ll begin to enjoy the natural sweetness of fruits and whole foods. And by reducing inflammatory foods, you’ll likely experience more energy, clearer skin, and a stronger immune system.

Tuning Into Your Body

Perhaps the most valuable takeaway from the 30 Days to Healthy Living is the ability to tune into your body. When you eliminate common allergens and focus on clean, whole foods, your body sends clearer signals about what it needs. By the end of the program, you’ll have a better understanding of which foods make you feel your best, and which ones you might want to avoid for good.

So, whether you’re looking to reduce inflammation, improve digestion, or simply establish healthier eating habits, the 30 Days to Healthy Living is a powerful way to reset and realign with what truly nourishes your body.
