Every day your body absorbs a wide range of
substances, depending upon your diet and environment. From coming into contact
with pollution in the air to consuming unhealthy foods packed with chemicals
and preservatives, there are many ways in which your body can be exposed to
toxins - and these rarely pass out of your system quickly. For this reason,
many individuals opt to do a detox to cleanse their systems of the substances
that are making them feel sluggish, sick and just not right. But what are the
best ways to rid your body of these toxins? Below are five different approaches
that you might consider - all of which may result in weight loss due to the
simple process of flushing your system of the substances that are making it
work inefficiently.
1. Juice Cleanse
Juicing is a great way to flush the body of toxins and fill
it with vitamins and nutrients that you need to thrive. Try to incorporate
greens, vegetables and some fruit to act as a natural sweetener into each juice
recipe. Don't peel the ingredients first unless absolutely necessary, as the
skins of fruits and vegetables hold the most fiber and other key substances.
2. Lemon Cleanse
Lemons are highly acidic, which is a property that allows
them to naturally aid in the detox process. Add some lemon to your water and
make sure that you hydrate well each day. Through this, you can help break down
fat molecules, leading to a healthier body and weight loss. Make sure not to go
overboard with this, though, as the acidic nature of the lemon can wear away at
the enamel of your teeth.
3. Salt Cleanse
Salt can help to heal the body by removing bacteria from the
lungs. Additionally, it has been shown to improve asthma, allergies and
irritations of the skin. The key, though, is consistency. If you have access to
a man-made salt room, then that would be the best option, but you can create
your own salt therapy regimen at home. Three times a week at the maximum, pour
Epsom salts into a warm bath and soak. Choose a salt that has a smell you enjoy
and that is either soothing or invigorating, depending upon the time of day you
plan to bathe.
4. Sweat Cleanse
Sweating out toxins is a great way to detox and lose weight.
If you have access to a sauna or steam room, make use of it to sweat out
harmful substances in a peaceful environment. If not, simply up the ante on
your exercise routine - sweating is sweating, after all. Just make sure to
drink a lot of water when engaging in a sweat cleanse, as it is important to
keep your body hydrated.
5. Lymphatic Cleanse
Massaging the lymphatic system can move toxins out of the
body, allowing lymph to flow more freely and exit the body in a healthy way.
Starting Your Cleanse
All of these detox methods are proven effective, but it is
important to find what works for you. Talk to your doctor before starting your
detox to make sure that you are choosing the right method for your body's
needs.
