Feeling sluggish? Here’s how to reset naturally!
Hello Reader,
Spring is a time of renewal—not just for your home, but for your body too. If you’re feeling sluggish, bloated, or just “off,” it could be your liver asking for a little extra support.
Your liver is responsible for processing everything from hormones to toxins, and when it’s overloaded, you might notice: ⚡️ Fatigue & brain fog 😩 PMS & bloating 🚩 Stubborn acne & hormonal imbalances
In this article, I talk about the link between liver health and hormonal acne and I give you tips on how to support your detox pathways to achieve clear skin.
The good news? You don’t need a juice cleanse or a harsh detox. Your body already knows how to detox—you just need to support it the right way.
Easy Ways to Support Your Liver Naturally:
🥦 Eat cruciferous veggies – Broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and Brussels sprouts help your liver break down excess estrogen. I love roasting them with avocado oil and sea salt!
Looking for a convenient greens powder to help you reach your veggie goals? Look no further than here.This powder is organic and has the veggies your liver needs to function well.
🚰 Hydrate with electrolytes – Staying hydrated helps your liver flush out toxins. Bonus points for adding lemon or apple cider vinegar for an extra boost.
This has been my favorite clean and affordable electrolyte powder lately!
🌿 Support your gut – Your liver and gut work together. Eating fiber-rich foods like flaxseeds and fermented foods (kimchi, sauerkraut) helps your body eliminate toxins more effectively.
If you need extra support, a high-quality probiotic can be a game-changer.
🧴 Reduce toxin exposure – Many beauty and household products contain hormone-disrupting chemicals. Swapping to a non-toxic skincare brand can make a big difference!
I personally love BioJuve for clean, effective skincare.
Small changes add up! Try incorporating just one or two of these habits this week and see how you feel.
To your health! Dr. Francesca Medina

Feel Balanced All Summer Long Hello Reader, Let’s be real—summer is not always as effortless as it looks on social media. Between the heat, late nights, and blood sugar spikes (looking at you, rosé + fruit bowls), your hormones can start to feel... off. If you've been bloated, moody, breaking out, or just feeling “puffy” and off-rhythm, it’s not your imagination. Your body is asking for a reset. Especially with 🇺🇸 Fourth of July celebrations right around the corner (hello, BBQs, fireworks,...
