George September 27, 2018 at 3:23 pmDo you have a daily calorie estimate? Also is this possible without purchasing the tumeric tonic and just using regular tumeric and spices? (UK based so too expensive and wouldn’t have it in time to start the Oct 1st challenge) Thanks! Reply ↓
Recipe Team September 29, 2018 at 11:46 amOur meal plans are not based on calories, instead we focus on eating whole foods with no added sugars. We have had thousands of detoxers that have had results with our plans. You can use regular turmeric and spices instead of the Daily Turmeric Tonic. Good luck! Reply ↓
