Detoxing helps us stay functional and not experience more severe symptoms, so if your symptoms are pretty mild, your body may be detoxing well enough for only detoxing some. But most of us need it full time.
So, how do you feel during the time you aren't detoxing as much compared to when you are detoxing more? That will tell you some about how well your body is detoxing for the most part.
If there is much difference between the weeks when you are detoxing more and the weeks when you don't detox as much, then I would encourage you to increase your detoxing.
My body doesn't detox very well, and although I have not had any of the gene mutation testing done, I do seem to have the same kind of issues as those that do - so I figured it was best for me to assume that I did and work to get my body to detox much better.
It took a lot of diet changes as things with my body changed,
I use a foot soak,
dry skin brushing,
making sure my bowels moved at least once a day (sorry if it's TMI!)
pushing myself to drink at least 64 ounces of lemon water each and every day,
liver/gall bladder flushes (all natural), as needed,
oil pulling with tea tree oil,
taking activated charcoal, as needed,
Alpha lipoic acid,
Quercetin,
turmeric,
Methyl B-12 and methyl folate,
Dandelion tincture,
red root tincture,
Yogi brand detox tea (original flavor)
Have recently added cytokine remodulators - Chinese Skullcap and Red clover extracts
and keeping the amount of stress in my life at a bare minimum.
I have used apple cider vinegar to help with detoxing as well - it's really good, but started making my stomach issues worse, so I stopped using it daily and only use it occasionally when I know I need a boost in my detoxing for just a day or two.
