Detoxing : The Simplest Way Is The Best Way

By Steve Bruce

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.

-Look to consume lots of fruit and vegetables. You should also eat plenty of nuts, beans, whole grains and lean meats. If you can, try to find those foods that have been naturally processed, without the use of any harmful chemicals or treatments.

-Every few days, you need to drink at least half of your weight in fresh water (with a little lemon juice added to it if you want). The days in between, aim to take in at least 8 glasses per day.

-Stay away from alcoholic and caffeinated beverages. If you have to add a sweetener to a drink or meal, use naturally derived products like honey, agave nectar or stevia.

- Take a fiber supplement, such as psyllium or flax (which can both be found in the health food aisle of most grocery stores) in the evening before going to sleep. Each capsule should contain about five to eight grams of fiber and should not have any food colorings or sugar added.

- Perform regular exercise so as to sweat out toxins and keep your blood circulation high. Exercising three to five times a week for at least a half hour per time is ideal, but beginners should start slowly and build up to this level.

- Take hot salt baths and saunas as they will help toxins sweat themselves out of your body. Remember to drink additional water before, during and after taking them to prevent dehydration.

Implementing these simple methods in to your daily routine will see you reaping many health benefits. 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 not only feel better, but will look better too! - 31816
