Complete Body Detox

Complete Body Detox


A complete body detox aims to remove toxins and other foreign substances from all the body's cells and organs. People get toxins in the body from household chemicals, foods, pollution and even from a poor diet. Eliminating toxins is a process that can take several weeks or even a month. One way to eliminate these toxins is to combine two or three cleansing methods that focusing on removing toxins from all areas of the body.


The Importance of Detoxing


People detox for various reasons: to maintain their help, overcome symptoms (a common one is gastritis) or to get over illnesses. Most toxins are eliminating through the urinary tract or colon, which is why detox programs often focus on cleansing the colon, liver and gall bladder. Toxins that originate in the colon are usually caused by an overgrowth of candida, a yeast-like fungus that can overproduce and cause many adverses symptoms. As the body's bacteria fights the excess yeast, the yeast emits toxins as it dies. If left untreated, these toxins can enter the blood stream and invade body cells and organs.


Any method of detoxing requires that one drink lots of fluid. Water can aid the detoxing process. Also, people often get dehydrated when detoxing. so drinking water is essential.


Juicing


Juicing is a popular way to eliminate toxins from the body. Juicing basically entails taking raw vegetables and fruits, mixing them in a blender and drinking them. Vegetables and fruits have high levels of enzymes, which can fight systemic yeast. They can also lower one's ph level, which kills off viruses, diseases and parasites in the body. Some vegetables used in juicing include carrots, cucumbers, beets, radishes, kale, parsley, garlic and wheat grass. Pineapples, kiwi, bananas, lemons and apples are some common fruits used in juicing.


Probiotics & Enzymes


Probiotics can add "friendly" bacteria to the digestive tract to help eliminate yeast, toxins and parasites. They can be purchased at health food stores.


Digestive enzymes kill yeast and help with the assimilation of protein, starches and other food substances. One can either eat lots of raw vegetables or purchase plant enzymes when detoxing their entire body.








Gluten & Sugar


A complete body detox often requires that you eliminate gluten and sugar from your diet. These food ingredients can feed systemic yeast and elevate toxin levels in the body. The problem is that most commercial foods like bread and pasta contain gluten and sugar. You can either substitute these foods with rice and almond substitutes, or eat more gluten and sugar-free foods. Most meats, potatoes, yams, beans, lentil, brown rice, vegetables and fruits are gluten-free.


Colon Cleanses


There are two types of colon cleanses: powder cleanses and colonic irrigation. The former are usually mixed in water. You can drink this mixture of foods and herbs for 2-4 weeks to detox the colon. Colonic irrigation is usually administered by a licensed colon hydrotherapist. his method entails flushing the large intestines with purified water. Both methods are effective in eliminating fecal and mucus impactions where yeast, toxins and parasites are harbored.


Ionic Foot Baths


Ionic foot baths can detox many cells and organs. This process uses positive and negative ions to remove unbalanced cells from the body. These cells are the ones that have been invaded by viruses, parasites and toxins. The color of the water can determine from which area the toxins are being released. For example, an orange tint in the water indicates the detoxification of joints.


Saunas & Massages


Saunas employ heat to rid cells and tissues of toxins and parasites. Only healthy cells can withstand high levels of heat.


Deep message therapy can eliminate toxins in muscle tissues and lymph nodes. There are also massage chairs that can simulate these movements. Most people that get massages for detox purposes also do colon cleanses to eliminate the toxins that are released during the massage.
