She will be co-hosting a follow-up summit in September 2017 called The Detox Project. She also collaborated with the Institute for Functional Medicine to lead 3000 people through The Detox Challenge, a 21-day, online, functional medicine-oriented, holistic detoxification program. Results collected from almost 700 people in this program indicated a significant improvement in all body systems. Her newest book, Whole Detox, was published in March 2016.
