Detoxification comes from the idea that as human
beings, we have toxins in our systems that tend to tend to slow down the
functionality of the body system. Naturally, toxins are unwanted materials or
impurities that need to be flushed out of the system for better performance. The
body on its own does neutralizes and get rid of some of the toxins, through our
liver and some other organs such as kidneys, intestines, lungs,
lymph and skin but because the body cannot do it all on its own, that’s
why there is need for us to take specific actions to detoxify our systems for
optimized and improved performance.
This can be done by reducing our toxic intake and
increasing the amount of nutrients the body is lavished with. Unfortunately, it
is hard to know when our body is filled with impurities and needs internal
cleaning, like we do for our skin, teeth, hair, etc, also, same goes with
determining when our internal cleansing mechanisms are not functioning well.
To make this task simple and almost effortless, there
are detoxification products, programs and guides with which you can cleanse
your blood and general body system.
Apart from cleansing the body system,
detoxification also helps with other problems such as; overweight, skin
problems, aches, pains and digestive problems.
3 Things to know when you want to start a detox
diet
Prepare early
You should have a well
laid –out plan before starting your detox diet so that you don’t self-sabotage
your attempts. First, start your preparation three days before the actual
process begins; if not a week. This is because early preparation helps you stay
alert psychologically and gives you ample time to clear your kitchen of food and
drinks that may deter the success of the detoxification program such as; coffee, cigarettes, dairy, wheat, refined sugars, alcohol and saturated fats.
Increase
your use and intake of natural substances
To make your
detox a success get ready to increase your intake of vegetables, fruits,
vegetable salads, pure juice with no added sweeteners of any kind, eat only organic
food essentials and drink lots of filtered water.
