Do you suffer from skin problems, pain, digestive troubles or are you struggling with your weight? Your body may need a detox.
Detoxification consists of cleansing the body both externally and internally. It has been practiced for centuries around the world in various cultures, such as Ayurvedic and Chinese. By removing all toxins and subsequently replenishing the body with nutrients, you prevent diseases and improve your overall health.
How does detoxification work?
The essence of detoxification is the cleansing of the blood. This occurs when contaminants from the blood are transferred to the liver. There the toxins are eliminated. Other organs that excrete toxins are the kidneys, intestines and lungs. When these organs are weakened by pollutants, they are unable to remove toxins completely, and those then enter the cells throughout the body.
Do you want to detox your body effectively? Start with the right diet
First eliminate alcohol, cigarettes, coffee, refined sugars and saturated fats. These are the worst toxins that greatly complicate maintaining a healthy body. Another important thing is to give up dairy products at least two days before starting the detox. The detox procedure lasts only 3 days.
Mix 300 ml of water with the juice of 3 lemons. Drink the mixture before breakfast. This will prepare your stomach for better digestion. During breakfast drink 300 ml of pineapple or grapefruit juice. Both of these exotic fruits have antioxidant properties and also improve the respiratory system.
Between breakfast and lunch drink one or half a cup of 100% pure carrot juice; it alkalizes your blood during the detox process. For dinner drink 400 ml of a potassium-rich juice (apricots, celery, spinach, bananas, pears, parsley…). This will help to strengthen the effects of the whole process. Before bed drink 400 ml of pure cranberry juice. It fights bacteria in the lungs that can cause infections.
During this three-day detox program do not overstrain your lungs; limit strenuous exercises, running, and cycling.
