What to Expect when Detox Dieting
The benefits associated with detoxing the body are numerous and widespread. All detox diets are a little bit different. Some restrict food down to almost nothing while others allow for mostly veggies, beans, fruit, and rice.
There are a few things that you should expect when beginning a detox diet, so that you can receive the full detox diets benefits.
Just to be clear, a detox and a diet are two totally different things.
So you've decide that it's time to detox your body but find that with all the different detox and cleansing diets around you're really confused.
You've heard about raw food diets, juicing, liver cleansing, colon cleansing, vegetarianism and much more, so which one is right for you?
Let’s face it, the world we live in is toxic, and although we can’t control our environment, we can control what we eat. That is why real detoxification is gradual and takes time. It is important that we transition slowly.
The first issue that many face is poor nutrition. Some who use these types of diets for more than a day or two have a very high chance of not having the proper nutrition the body needs. Most people aren't quite getting enough nutrition on a normal diet. With a diet that consists of mainly water and a few other things like lemon or syrup, the body might not get what it needs during this period of time.
That’s why I do not advocate any of those short-term juice fasts, like the Blueprint Cleanse. You’re not going to detox in a significant way in 3 days, and you don’t learn any real, improved long-term lifestyle habits to really detox.Real detoxification takes work and time.
A proper detoxification program will firstly work on creating good gut integrity because if you haven't done this initially, the toxins that are being mobilized by your liver will simply be reabsorbed by the gut. The most recent valid detoxification programs have also recognized the importance of getting another excretory organ, the kidney, to work effectively also.
The good news is that it is never too late to start nourishing your system on a cellular level, and you can start today. If I haven’t convinced you yet, here are some remarkable benefits of ongoing detoxification.
- Cleanse The Body Of Harmful Substances: The reason behind this is that the colon cleansing does not only affect your gut, but the other organs in your digestive system as well. Your kidneys, gall bladder, liver, and even your skin will be revived and restored.
- Reduced and Reformed Cravings: the cravings and addiction will start to disappear. Thus, if you have been trying for years to stop smoking or to ditch your candy snacking, then you need to get on a detoxification program immediately.
- Natural and Healthy Weight Loss: Your body protects itself from toxins by encasing them in fat.
- Improved Liver Function: Strengthens The Immune System. Detoxing purifies your blood and eliminated free radicals and destructive toxins.
- Adaptogenic Support: Adaptogens are derived from herbs and plants and are known to increase resistance to stress and anxiety.
The most excellent diet is one based on fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean sources of protein and other unsaturated fats.
Add normal exercise and stress lessening techniques, and you have a solid foundation for good health.
I want to leave you with a beautiful quote that I found the other day.
“We don’t have a soul, we are a soul. We have a body.” – C.S. Lewis
