The lowdown on DETOXING

​It’s that time of year when lots of us think about detoxes, but what is the best way to do a detox?
 
Well that depends on lots of factors:
  • The time of year – warming in winter and cooling in summer
  • Which organs you need to target for your needs – liver, kidneys or lymphatic system
  • Your age
  • Your health status
  • Your diet
 
Signs you may need to detox your system:
  • Unexplained fatigue
  • Sluggish elimination
  • Irritated skin
  • Allergies
  • Low-grade infection
  • Puffy eyes or bags under the eyes
  • Bloating
  • Menstrual problems
  • Mental confusion
 
There is a lot of conflicting information out there, one argument is we need to detox regularly whereas another argument is you don’t need to detox as your body has it’s own detoxifying processes.
 
Let me quickly explain my thoughts on this
 
Yes your body has systems in place for detoxification, but like so many other systems in our body’s, it’s under extreme pressure from modern life, diet and stress and cannot sufficiently deal with the level of toxicity thrown at it, much like we have a cardiovascular system but many people still have high blood pressure, we have a digestive system but many people still have IBS.  Our body sometimes needs a little help from us to function properly.
 
There is more than one way to detox:
  • Clean diet – go vegan for a month
  • Juice –fresh vegetable juice daily (add ginger in the winter)
  • 7 day detox - more suitable for spring/summer
  • 30 day detox
  • Remove processed foods for 1 month
  • Body brushing
  • Epsom salt baths
  • Sauna
 
So if you think you need a Detox program contact Carina to find out if one of her programs would suit you.
