Detox? ... clearing out the unwanted? ... new beginnings!
What is it?
Why does our body do it?
Even if you live a healthy life, you still need to cleanse regularly. Our cells excrete waste and toxins and over time these wastes back up, making our body and mind sluggish. The air we breathe, the water we drink and shower in, and environment in which we live is toxic.
So you’ve decided to detox?
Wonderful! Detoxing our bodies also helps to cleanse our thoughts & emotions. We have more energy and a more positive attitude!
So many become so afraid when their body detox’s. I hear” Oh no”, “Not me”, or just “no thank you”. Well did you know your body is detoxing every day all on it’s own!
Sometimes a detox can look like the flu, or skin disorders such as acne. Being tired, body odor, not sleeping well etc. Detox reactions generally last for 4-5 days, Of course it would be wise to make sure all exits are clear and ready to flow … (enemas … more on this later)
I’m sure you have or soon will come to the conclusion that as we age our body slows down things are moving as fast as we’d like them to.
Think about it … that means elimination is slowing down as well.
How does that show up in our bodies?
The #1 thing a large percent of the population notices is feeling backed up. Well’ that’s exactly it! I had a consult with one of Dr. Pompa’s staff. We discussed that when we are young, in most cases things are moving smoothly. As we age toxins that are not moving out as swiftly as they use to start to back up & build up in our body. We discussed that our bodies can handle a little, but over time (usually 20 years) these toxins that are not moving out are building up and when 3 different toxins build up in the body (colon, liver & kidneys) this causes a storm resulting in malfunction. Malfunction comes in many forms and has been labeled with many names.
So what is one to do?
Here we will explore many (not all) ways people have success keeping things moving. What is your favorite way to keep things moving? But first lets talk about a few daily habits ….
· Do you eat process foods?
· Do you consume alcohol or smoke?
· How often do you exercise?
· Are you getting enough sleep?
Identifying areas of improvement will help you to create a personalized plan.
1. Start by reducing your exposure to toxins. (More in depth coming soon)
Switch to natural:
· Non-toxic cleaning products,
· Personal care items &
· Tooth fillings
· Fragrances
2. Opt for organic, non GMO foods whenever possible
3. Ditch plastic containers and water bottles, & invest in high quality drinking water. What kind of cookware are you using?
4. Ditch toxic people
Lets support the body’s natural detoxification process:
a) Liver: Foods: Cruciferous vegetables ( broccoli, cauliflower , brussel sprouts), sulfur-rich food (garlic, onions), and foods high in antioxidants (berries, colorful fruits, and veggies)Supplements: ( see your wellness practioner for dosage): Milk thistle, turmeric and N-acetylcsteine (NAC)Actives: Regular exercise, especially high-intensity interval training (HIIT), helps stimulate liver detoxification.
b) Kidneys: Foods: Foods high in potassium (bananas, avocados, leafy greens), and foods rich in antioxidants. Supplements: Hydration is key, no more than 10-12 oz. of water per waking hour and consider adding a pinch of Himalayan salt or Celtic sea salt to your water to support kidney function. Activities: While staying hydrated engage in regular physical activity to support kidney health.
c) Intestines: Foods: High fiber foods (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds), fermented foods(kombucha, sauerkraut, kimchi), and foods rich in prebiotics (asparagus, bananas, onions).Supplements: Probiotics, phyllium husk, and bentonite clay. (see your wellness practioner for dosage)Activities: Regular bowel movements, adequate hydration, and regular exercise all support intestinal wellbeing.
5. Engage in regular detoxifying activities:
a) Sweating: Regular exercise, infrared saunas, or steam baths help eliminate toxins through sweat.
b) Deep breathing: Practice deep breathing exercises or yoga to promote oxygenation and detoxification of the body.
c) Dry brushing: Gently brush your skin with a natural bristle brush to stimulate lymphatic drainage and eliminate toxins.
