How to detox your body naturally in 5 simple ways.

Have you ever had one of those days when you know you are not sick but you still feel exhausted and bloated? You are feeling tired but you can’t get good sleep. The acne and dark circles are really bothering you and you are losing your grip on things with your frequent mood swings. These are some of the common symptoms your body is communicating with you and telling you loud and clear “Hey.. It’s time for you to detox”. Most of the time Detoxification is attributed to cleansing the body by following a specific diet or product which helps us remove the toxins from our body. Fortunately, our body is well equipped to remove the toxins without any special diet or deprivation.

In this article, we will discuss 5 simple ways to Detox our bodies naturally.

1. Drink more water: Your body is composed of 60% of water. The functions of bodily fluids include digestion, absorption, circulation, transportation of nutrients, and maintaining your body temperature. So how much water you should be drinking? Although there are many opinions and calculations to identify the correct quantity of water intake for each individual, the health authorities commonly recommend eight- 8-ounce glasses of water, which is close to 2 liters per day. This is called the 8X8 rule and is easy to remember.

2. Balanced Diet: Over a period of time certain highly processed foods and alcohol create toxins in your body. These toxins also known as free radicals are oxidized particles that can damage your tissue and cell walls. This is why it is recommended to have a diet rich in vegetables and fruits as it consists of natural antioxidants. Antioxidants attach to the free radicals and remove them from our bodies.

3. Become more active: Exercise can accelerate the process of detoxification. Exercise helps lymph fluids circulate through the body efficiently, which removes toxins and other harmful materials. With exercise, you are not only making your body stronger and more resistant, but you are also getting rid of your body toxins through perspiration. So it is suggested that you include at least a 30 min of workout 5 days a week.

4. Get sound sleep: “A Good Night Sleep” is very important for your detoxification process. Sleeping allows your brain to reorganize and recharge itself and eliminate the toxins you have accumulated throughout the day. So do whatever it takes for you to get 7-8 hours of sleep. It can be little steps like keeping the room darker, removing any noisy elements, and setting the right temperature for the room.

5. Meditate: Meditation quiets our mind; it helps us get rid of the constant unwanted thoughts that bring anxiety, worry, and distraction from our everyday lives. Sometimes it really is “all in your head”. De-stressing your life through meditation, visualization, and other practices will help you clear your mind and help in the detoxification process.

It is recommended that you keep aside 10 mins daily for mediation. Bottom Line: Detoxification can be done naturally without going through any Fad diet. While you are at it, you may feel certain reactions like skin breakouts, bloating stomach, headaches, food cravings, loose motions or constipation, etc. In such cases, there is nothing to panic about as these are the ways your body reacts to the cleansing process.

 All the above steps will enhance your body’s natural detoxification system and improve your overall health. HAPPY DETOXING!!!!
