Most people are aware of the benefits of detoxing but few achieve them because they struggle to find the time to implement the sometimes complex detox programs. Here, we'll review a simple detox that can easily be added to your daily routine, which will allow you to take in less toxins and get rid of those already in your system.
- 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.
- Stay away from alcoholic beverages, refined sugar and caffeine products like coffee and chocolate. Sweeteners like agave nectar, stevia and honey are acceptable, but not artificial sweeteners like Splenda, Equal or NutraSweet, since these contain toxins.
- Increase your intake of fiber by taking supplements of psyllium or flax before you go to sleep each night. They're 100% natural and contain around five to eight grams of fiber per capsule.
- Exercise on a regular basis to improve your blood circulation. Half an hour to an hour of exercise 3-5 times a week is recommended, but if you are just starting out, begin slow and build up to this goal.
- 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
