Everyone comes in contact with toxins just living everyday life. Some toxins come from the foods we eat while others are from air, water, and environmental pollution. Even those who live a very healthy lifestyle can have toxins that build up in the body.
If you don’t work to clear toxins out, they can wreak havoc in your body. They lead to weight gain, faster aging, chronic disease, and loss of energy. By performing a detox cleanse, you can help to rid the body of toxins and restore better health.
There are different methods for performing a detox cleanse. As you learn more about them, you can decide what will work best for you. There’s really no right or wrong way to do it as long as you make sure that the methods won’t interact with any health condition you have or medication you’re taking.
One way is to participate in a juice cleanse. This is taking a time period from one day to two weeks when you only drink juice that you’ve made yourself with organic produce. For this, most of the produce should be vegetables, while some fruits may be used for sweetness.
You can also participate in a cleanse using herbal supplements. There are many supplements on the market that help your liver to be cleared from toxins. You’ll need to follow the directions on the supplement to know what the process is. It varies between brands.
You can also choose a raw food cleanse. Usually this means following a raw food diet for at least 30 days. Raw food means food that hasn’t been warmed over 104 degrees F. You can warm foods, just not cook them. The idea is that the food’s enzymes will remain intact helping to improve digestion and remove toxins. You’ll need to eat organic foods for this to work.
Some people have yeast overgrowth in the body that causes fatigue. You can cleanse the body from this by eliminating all sugars are refined flours for a period of time. Yeast feeds on sugar, so by eliminating these things you will starve it. This also means eliminating natural sweeteners, fruit, and fruit juice.
If you’re not ready to commit to a long-term cleanse, you can also begin adding foods to your diet that naturally detox the body. Foods such as cilantro, parsley, citrus fruits, cinnamon, cumin, curry, and oregano are known for cleansing the body.
Switching to a diet high in organic foods that are as unprocessed as possible will also help the body to detoxify. Performing a detox cleanse will be more quick and effective, but any positive changes are good.
