Proper Diet
Diet is one of the best ways to improve your health. Of course if your digestion is compromised, it’s also important to heal your gut so you absorb the nutrients you consume. For detoxing you can start with removing all non organic and processed foods and sugar. This will help to eliminate consumption of herbicides, pesticides and chemical from your diet and will begin to help support your digestion and your liver.

Eat LOTS of colorful veggies and clean protein and while you don’t need to exist on smoothies and juices alone, these can also enhance your detox by filling your body with additional nutrients.

Using Herbs
There are different body organs which are prone to the high development of toxins. One of them is your colon. Keep in mind that large intestines can accumulate lots of toxins which can result in constipation. Eating fiber rich foods and drinking lots of water may help get things moving. There are also fiber supplements like psyllium seed husk used alone or combined with agents such clay or charcoal binders, probiotics, enzymes, and Aloe Vera. Coffee enemas can be used for cleaning your liver, another important organ of your body.

Regular Exercise
Exercise stimulates sweating thus it eliminates toxic wastes through your skin. It improves general metabolism and aids in your overall detoxification. Exercise done regularly can help your body eliminate waste.

Regular Bathing
It is essential in cleaning your skin from accumulated toxins. Saunas are helpful purifying your body through more enhanced skin elimination. Dry brushing your skin using the right skin brush is often suggested before bathing.

Massage
Massage is helpful for detox as it stimulates body functions and elimination as well as helping you feel more relaxed and clear from worries, tensions, and mental stresses.

Stress Reduction
This is important in the rejuvenation process. It helps your body stay in a rest and digest state which eliminates mental toxins. Practicing yoga is a powerful exercise related to breathing regulation and awareness helping you to feel more balanced and calm. Meditation is also another great option to use to work with for stress reduction.

Sleep
And last but not least, sleep helps heal your body. Sleeping 7-9 hours per night supports your detox pathways and helps your body rejuvenate.

Detox really happens in your everyday choices, not through some fancy program!

Hello and Welcome! My name is Carla Alpert, and I’m a Board Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach and Diagnostic Practitioner, focusing on the gut and how it affects your overall health. Think of me as a health detective and wellness coach working in partnership with you to restore your health. We work together to uncover the contributing factors to your chronic symptoms, to eat well, sleep well, move more and stress less.

I love the GI MAP test because it helps my clients and I discover gut dysfunction that may be contributing to daily digestive issues as well as other chronic symptoms like anxiety, fatigue and brain fog. I created this GI MAP Coaching Package to help you stop struggling with your health and get back to living your best life.

What Clients Are Saying

Carla really helped me to figure out my gut pain and issues after so many years. I finally feel like I have energy and clarity around my health! She was so easy to talk to and helped me discover problem areas that were causing me so much distress, when no other doctors could help.
VICTORIA

Well Humans changed my life. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis accompanied by chronic hives. It sprang up out of nowhere and caused bizarre “food allergies” that I’d never had before. Because of Carla’s coaching and dietary recommendations as well as GI Map testing, I can happily say that I am now symptom-free, and I have been in remission for over a year now. All of the doctors I saw told me I would have to deal with my symptoms because there was no cure, but here I am, back to living a mostly normal life. I highly recommend Carla and Well Humans for anyone looking for real answers and treatments that work.
KALYN

When working with Carla, you are in capable, compassionate, knowledgeable and caring hands. Carla truly cares about your well being and wants to help you be the healthiest that you can be. My health was truly suffering and with her guidance and suggested testing, we uncovered some issues that nobody else had uncovered, despite my going to some of the top rated medical institutions. My health and pain improved greatly due to Carla’s sleuthing…she knew where to look. Through many health challenges, I was quite emotional and Carla showed me what compassion looks like. If you want to truly improve your health, start with Well Humans.
BETH

Over years, I’ve tried various “alternative” medicine as well as conventional “western” medicine approaches. Skin ailments are hard to treat – so many aspects of a life can produce skin symptoms. I enthusiastically recommend Well Humans and Carla for a simple reason – I’ve experienced sustained, substantial improvement! I have hardly ever posted a review of anything, but writing this was an easy choice to make. I wish you all the best in your journey towards better health!
JON

I searched the U.S. to find someone who does what Carla does. Carla has used her knowledge, support and expertise to optimize my health and well-being with a blend of scientific medical tests, supplements and diet changes. I wasted a lot of time on my hunches, the internet and experiments with supplements and food and NOW i have an actual plan. Superb supportive knowledge and guidance. I highly recommend Carla. Grateful.
LISA

I never knew that I had a gluten allergy and intolerance until Carla discovered it in my blood work! I’m so grateful that she made this discovery and I have been gluten free ever since. I sleep better, don’t feel bloated and have much more energy. It was a life-changing insight.
