Detoxify your body for a happier healthier you
12 Ways to Remove the Toxins From Your Body
How Do You Detoxify Your Body?
Basically, there are two major cleansing systems operating in your body, the antioxidation system - -
the process of preventing oxidation or the deterioration of the cells' function;
and the liver's cleansing processes.
These two systems work in harmony with your body's circulatory
and elimination systems. This is a process where you are actually cleansing your blood. It does this mainly by removing
impurities from the blood in the liver, where toxins are processed for elimination.
Here are twelve ways to Help Your Body cleanse itself:
After a
detoxification program, you need to change your lifestyle and cleanse your body daily through diet,
supplements and healthy practices. Some of these 12 recommendations are from Gaiamlife.com by Deborahann Smith.
- Eat plenty of fiber, including brown rice and organically-grown fresh fruits and vegetables.
Beets, radishes, artichokes, cabbage, broccoli, spirulina, chlorella, and seaweed are excellent cleansing foods.
- Replenish the good bacteria that have been lost while cleansing the colon. Good bacteria help protect
the flora balance and protect you by boosting your immune system.
-
Cleanse and protect the liver by taking herbs such as dandelion root, burdock and milk thistle,
and drinking green tea.
- Take vitamin C, which helps the body produce glutathione, a liver compound that drives away toxins.
- Drink at least 2 quarts of
water daily.
- Breathe deeply to allow oxygen to circulate more completely through your system.
- Transform
stress by emphasizing
positive emotions.
- Practice hydrotherapy by taking a very hot shower for five minutes, allowing the water to run on your back.
Follow with cold water for 30 seconds. Do this three times, and then get into bed for 30 minutes.
- Sweat in a sauna so your body can eliminate wastes through perspiration. Another way of controling
chronic lifestyle diseases.
- Dry-brush your skin or try detoxifying patches or detox foot spas / foot baths to remove toxins through your pores.
Special brushes are available at natural products stores.
- In the final step, use cleansing herbs, vitamins, amino acids and minerals to cleanse your liver,
blood, brain, tissues and other parts of your body.
- One of the most important way to cleanse your body is
"Exercise," "Yoga or jump-roping are good.
One hour every day." Also try qigong, a martial-arts based exercise system that includes exercises
specifically for detoxifying or cleansing, as well as many other exercises with specific health benefits.
