“Your body is your temple.”
“You are what you eat.”
If both adages are true, then most us are trashing our place of worship. To your health and your body, “trash” refers to all the junk and toxins accumulate in our body because of daily stress, poor eating habits, and polluted environments. Your body naturally works to rid itself of these toxins, but it works hard, and it needs all the support it can get. Working with your body and providing it with more “weapons” for battling toxins can reduce the strain on your body’s natural system, delay aging, and promote better overall health.
The first, most important step in cleansing your body is to identify the sources of the toxins that find their way into your body and compromise your health. Toxins are either physical or psychological. Physical toxins include the byproducts of unhealthy foods and range from sugar and white flour to tobacco and alcohol.
Cleansing your body is not difficult, and it does not require lengthy and complicated diet plans. The best, most effective way to cleanse your body is to eat natural and neutral ingredients. Ingredients that are too acidic or too basic for the pH of the body contribute to a toxic environment inside your body. Your body also harbors psychological toxins in the form of stress, anxiety, self-pity, ego or negative emotions.
Once you have identified the sources of various toxins and you have done what you can to prevent their reentry to your body, focus on "anti-toxins" that support your body and help battle those toxins that are unavoidable and inevitable.
Water is a fundamental element and composes most of our body. Almost all of our bodily processes depend on water. The average person should drink eight or more glasses of water a day. Before buying anything or trying any other products, increase your water intake.
Herbal teas and detoxifying juices are an easy way to boost your immune system and detoxify your body. Chamomile tea relaxes your mind and soul; ginger tea improves the immune system and wards off digestive disorders. Green tea is a powerful antioxidant and combats the toxins in our bodies. Detoxifying juices are more of a “catch-all.” You can add any number of natural herbs and fruits for a powerful combination of health benefits.
Everything runs better after a good cleaning. The same goes for your body! Keep it in tip-top shape by keeping it clean!
