Which Detox is For You?

There are many different types of detox methods so where do you start? First it depends on how much your willing to spend. While detoxing you should avoid all chemicals not just in food but in cleaning products to cosmetic products.

A colon cleanse also known as colonics, is the more expensive way to go. This detox program is performed by a colonic hygienist who performs colon irrigation. These work like an enema but they involve more water and no odors or discomfort. Theory of autointoxication is the belief that undigested meat/food cause buildup in the colon. The buildup then causes toxins to enter the bloodstream which then causes poisoning in the body. These toxins are said to cause fatigue, headache, weight gain, and low energy.

Fasting is another way to detox your body. You can do a water fast or juice fast. A water fast is usually for 24 to 36 hours. You must drink more than 4 but less than 8 pints of water and nothing else. A juice fast can include various forms of vegetable juices that can include carrot, celery, green beans, parsley, and many more. These last around 10 days.

Special detox diets emphasize on organic foods, herbal teas and plenty of water. Some may restrict you to only one food or one type of food all raw food for example. These will also tell you to eat slower, chew well, and finish meals by 6:30 PM.

Detox should not effect your nutritional intake, maintain and even improve metabolism, and allows you to lose weight easily. You should exercise regularly to detox your skin and lymph nodes through sweating. The best way to help your body detox every day is to drink lots of water. Natural detox is all about relaxing, restoring, and refreshing your body. You decide whats best for your body.
