With the increase of toxins in the environment and the foods we eat, it is not surprising that most people are at a level of toxicity that the body’s own natural detoxification system can cope with.
Chemicals and toxins can build up in your system and cause problems regardless of your body weight. But when body fat starts to accumulate, it usually means that toxins are
It is also accumulating.
The body retains fat as a way of protecting vital organs in the body from toxins that we ingest (and build up through stress). Body fat accumulation, especially around the midsection, is a clear sign of toxic build-up and a good indication that the liver is not working as efficiently as it should.
If toxins build up faster than they are eliminated, your body will actually make body fat for the specific purpose of storing toxins, in an effort to protect your organs.
As far away from vital organs as possible. This fat is particularly stubborn fat that is very difficult to lose unless you reduce your toxic load and do something to help detoxify your body.
So when we flush out and cleanse the body of toxins, we give the body a chance to heal and strengthen itself – and when the toxins are gone, guess what happens?
The protective layer of fat…yes, that disappears too!
Everything that passes your lips must be used by your body, or it must be neutralized and eliminated as a waste product. Otherwise, it accumulates in your body and gets accumulated like a pile.
Trash.
Environmental risks that you are exposed to on a daily basis and build up toxins in your body include:
, exposure to detergents, solvents, cleaning fluidsAdhesives and fumes from paint, gasoline or automobiles are practically unavoidable
, insecticides Including those at your grocery store that spray your fruits and vegetables to keep insects away
, hormones, steroids and antibiotics You can eat all non-organic meat, poultry, dairy and even fish
, agricultural chemical pollutants such as insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and growth hormones that are sprayed during crop production
, food additive, including nitrates, food dyes and preservatives. Over 7800 man-made chemicals have been approved for use in food processing
If these substances are not eliminated, they will build up, block you up, weigh you down, and can seriously harm your health. Your liver plays an important role in eliminating toxins and processing everything that goes into your body.
If your liver becomes overloaded, toxins begin to circulate in your blood, and in addition to making you feel tired and lethargic, those toxins can damage your organs and glands, causing inflammation throughout your body. Can cause headaches, weight gain and generally make you feel down. Bad.
Acne, chronic headaches, chronic fatigue, a pale complexion, low-lustre hair and fat build-up around the midsection are some of the common symptoms of an overworked liver.
Preventing toxic build-up helps your liver function at peak efficiency. And a well-functioning liver gives you many fat-burning, energy-building and health-boosting benefits.
Things that put extra strain on your liver and can seriously interfere with the liver’s ability to make and detoxify bile include:
- sugar and artificial sweeteners Because they have no nutritional value and processing them burns up vital nutrients your liver needs to function properly (soda is a big culprit in the American diet).
- trans fatty acids Because their excess toxic nature burns up essential nutrients like blokert and directly interferes with both bile production and detoxification.
-
most over-the-counter pain relievers and practically all prescription drugs,
Including blood pressure and cholesterol drugs that are now prescribed like candy. These substances place a heavy toxic load on the liver. - regular consumption of alcoholBecause eventually alcohol will pickle your liver and a pickled liver is a dead liver.
- constipationBecause the liver empties the toxins into the colon and if the colon is supported, the liver traps the toxins in the fat cells, and the toxins are retained in the body.
To start your body’s detoxification process, use cleaning formula (Like Jand’s Cleansing Formula) To detoxify the bowels, liver, kidneys and blood.
Always start detox by cleansing the bowel. It aims to improve its efficiency
You have regular bowel movements (ideally each morning and after each meal (I did say ideally!)) and are free of intestinal yeast (Candida) overgrowth but abundant in ‘good’ bacteria.
a lo complete fiber supplement Such as TwinLab’s Fiber/Digestion/Regularity Capsules which contain psyllium husk. It also contains betaine hydrochloride which helps in digestion and destroys bad bacteria. Drink plenty of water while taking the supplement and Herbal tea (Iced herbal tea is great too ~ no sugar or artificial sweeteners though). Also include lots of fresh fruits and vegetables in the diet, avoiding red meat, alcohol, caffeine, wheat and dairy products. Continue for about 10 days or till you recover regular bowel movements. Once the intestines are ‘happy’ you can move on to the rest of the body. take herbal supplements containing cleansing herbs such as milk thistle, Continue to drink plenty of fluids, eat fresh fruits and vegetables, and avoid the triggers mentioned above.
The following foods are also great to include in your diet during this time (eat organic as much as possible ~ and since there are many biological resources there should be no excuse); Carrot juice, beetroot, watercress, super foods like wheatgrass and barley grass, garlic, lemon juice and nuts and seeds. detox tea Can also be extremely beneficial when detoxing your body ~ Try Yogi Tea Wellness Detox Tea.
Another great detoxification ally is Weekly sea salt bath, Abra Herbal Hydrotherapy Bath Cellular Detox is especially good because it contains essential oils and vitamin antioxidants. There are great resources on the internet on how to do proper detoxification and you can spend a lot of money on complicated programs that promise the world. The truth is that you should do what feels right for your body. And often, it involves simple steps like drinking lots of water and eating plenty of fresh whole foods, avoiding processed and sugary foods.
