6-Step Detox Plan

By Steven Gerrard

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.

- Only consume natural foods like fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts, and whole grains. Eat organically as you can, so that no pesticides, hormones, or herbicides enter your body.

-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.

- 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.

- 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.

-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.

This easy to follow detoxification process is achievable by anybody who is determined to make themselves healthier. On completion it will leave you feeling more energetic and vibrant. Use it 2 or 3 times a year to give yourself a boost after any prolonged feeling of not being at your best. 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? - 17269
