6-Step Detox Plan

By Jim Avery

Even though there are numerous good detoxification programs available, many are difficult to incorporate into your day to day life. Today we'll detail a simple detox plan, that you should be able to easily adapt your lifestyle to.

- Consume as many vegetables, fresh fruits, fish, seeds and nuts, as you can. Aim for organic foods whenever possible, so as to avoid eating foods contaminated with fungicides, herbicides, pesticides and hormones.

- Drink plenty of water; ideally equal to half of your body weight in ounces at least once per week.

- Sugar, alcohol and caffeine should be avoided at all costs. You can use honey, steva or agave nectar to sweeten foods, but not artificial sweeteners as they contain certain toxins that you're trying to stay away from.

-Help your body excrete existing toxins by consuming a fiber additive like flax seed or psyllium. Both of these are great ways to add fiber to your diet and work naturally with your system. You should have at least a 5 gram capsule daily.

-You need to exercise to see the best results of a detox. When you exercise, your body releases chemicals and toxins through your sweating. Exercise also helps your circulatory system by getting more oxygen into your blood. You should aim for at least 30 minutes of continuous exercise between 3 and 5 times a week.

- Take hot salt baths or saunas to discharge toxins through sweating. Keep in mind that you should drink a lot of extra water so as to avoid the effects of dehydration.

Anyone can follow this easy and inexpensive detox plan, and set themselves on the road to good health by doing so. Really, you have no excuse not to. By delaying or making excuses, you're only putting your long term health in danger. So, why not begin now? You'll start feeling healthier and more energetic within a week! - 31816
