28-Day Total Body Challenge

Reclaim Your Health. Reclaim Your Power.

The 28-Day Total Body Clean-Up Challenge is a guided reset, not a crash diet or a get skinny quick scheme.

It’s a four-week experiment.

Each week, we’ll test one shift in your eating and drinking habits so you can observe how your body responds. You will monitor your energy, digestion, cravings, mood, clarity. You’re not guessing. You’re gathering data.

We’re doing it in community because sovereignty isn’t solo.

Food sovereignty is about having power over what nourishes you, not just what’s available on the corner, not just what’s marketed to you, not just what’s cheap and convenient.

This challenge brings that conversation home, to your plate, your cup, and your body.

You ready?

The 4 Weekly Experiments

Week 1 :: Hydration Reset (No-Calorie Beverages Only)

For 7 days, we remove alcohol and sugar-sweetened drinks.

Water. Sparkling water. Unsweetened tea. Black coffee. That’s it.

This isn’t about being good. It’s about noticing:

  • How your energy shifts

  • How your sleep changes

  • What your cravings are actually tied to

Environmental Justice Lens:
Sugary drinks are aggressively marketed in Black communities. This week helps you step back and ask — what’s habit, and what’s influence?

We’re not judging. We’re observing.

Week 2 :: Add the Greens

For 7 days, add:

  • One green smoothie

  • Two servings of raw vegetables

No restriction. Just addition.

Environmental Justice Lens:
Access to fresh food isn’t equal. This week invites you to explore where your produce comes from and what options exist locally — farmers markets, community gardens, co-ops.

We build awareness without shame.

Week 3 :: Swap the “White Stuff”

For 7 days, experiment with reducing refined white sugar, white flour, and heavily processed grains.

We’re not banning carbs. We’re testing how your body feels with fewer ultra-processed inputs.

Environmental Justice Lens:
Processed foods are often the most accessible in historically disinvested neighborhoods. This week builds literacy around how industrial food systems show up in our kitchens.

This is data collection, not deprivation.

Week 4 :: Dairy Detox (Just for the Week)

For 7 days, remove dairy and see how your body responds.

Environmental Justice Lens:
Many adults are lactose intolerant, especially in Black and Brown communities, yet dairy is heavily normalized and subsidized in the U.S. food system.

This week is about bodily autonomy. Not everything that’s common is optimal for you.

What This Is Really About

By the end of 28 days, you’ll know:

  • What fuels you

  • What drains you

  • What’s habit

  • What’s marketing

  • What’s cultural

  • What’s actually aligned with your body

And from there, you get to choose what stays.

That’s sovereignty.

Benefits

  • Increased energy and mental clarity

  • Improved digestion and reduced bloating

  • Greater awareness of how food impacts mood and focus

  • Stronger connection between your plate and your community

  • Reduced dependency on ultra-processed food systems

  • Practical tools to support long-term habit change

  • A deeper understanding of how personal health and environmental justice intersect

How This Connects to Food Sovereignty

Food sovereignty is the right to define our own food systems. That starts with:

  • Understanding what we consume

  • Questioning how marketing and policy shape our options

  • Supporting community-based food sources when possible

  • Building knowledge and skill around nourishment

When individuals shift habits collectively, community resilience strengthens. This challenge is a personal entry point into a broader movement.

What’s Included

  • 28 days of guided prompts and structured practices

  • Weekly group check-ins for accountability

  • Downloadable habit tracker and health resources

  • Closing reflection session

Who This Is For

  • People ready to reset their relationship with food

  • Individuals exploring the connection between health and justice

  • Anyone who wants structure, without shame
