Detoxification is the process of neutralizing, transforming and eliminating the toxins from the organism. The toxin can be any substance that has a negative effect on the organism.
Many of those toxins come from the foods we eat, from administrating medicines, and from the atmosphere. As you are probably not willing to move to the mountains, and you can't renounce your medical treatments, at least you could do something about your diet. This is only one of the benefits of eating healthy.
Even the body, and the bacteria from the intestines produce toxins. In the interior of the organisms, the fat, especially the oxide ones and cholesterol, as well as free radicals and other molecules act like toxins.
Slow digestion, the dysfunctions of colon and the deficient activity of the liver could lead to an increased toxicity in the organism. One of the best methods to fight those problems is to change your alimentation. This process is called detoxification, and it can be made in many ways.
Be aware that detoxification cures are different from the weight loss cures. Of course, a detoxification can have beneficial results on your weight, but this is not the main purpose of such a cure. If you suffer from one or more of the next symptoms, you might need to follow a detoxification cure:
- Unjustified tiredness
- A low level of energy
- Sleepiness, difficulties to wake up in the morning
- Depressive stages, anxiety, nervousness, lack of concentration
- The urge to eat sweets, fast food and spicy products
- Frequent indigestion, nausea, irritable colon
- Surplus of weight
Don't hesitate to talk with your medic about the benefits of eating healthy, and about a good detoxification cure. You have several natural methods at your disposal to solve those problems:
1. By growing the quantity of fibers that you consume - fibers stimulate the intestinal transit, ensuring a physiologic detoxification of the organism. Those fibers would absorb toxins, being eliminated later.
Fibers offer an increased sensation of satiety, you will not feel the need to eat between meals, and they have a minimum quantity of calories.
Here are some of the recommended products for a detoxification diet: cereals, coconuts, beans, grains, nuts.
2. By using laxative medicines - it is a good idea to try the natural laxatives. Anyway, the method is not so effective, as it is only a method to solve your problems on the short term. On a long term, you will need to change the metabolism, and this can be done only with a diet.
3. By changing your eating habits - you have probably heard this a million times, but this happens because it is true: "Eat your fruits and vegetables, and drink a lot of water".
A detoxification diet will eliminate the toxins from the organism, allowing you to feel healthier, but what would you do after? You don't need to renounce sweets and fast foods forever, but don't over react.
After a while, you will find it a lot easier to eat those healthy foods, and the satisfaction of feeling great will give you the will to continue.
The most important step to a healthier life is the change to a healthy diet.
