How This Helps

What causes toxification? Where do the toxins come from? Detoxification is a natural healing process that involves
resting, cleansing, and nourishing the body from the inside out. Natural detox cleanse is a process that involves eliminating toxins within
the body by the incorporation of natural foods in the diet. Nowadays, lifestyle
habits and the environment’s where we live, work, eat, and play often expose us
to toxins and impurities which are harmful to our body. The physiological
processes designed in our bodies are very efficient in eliminating these
impurities and toxins. But there are certain impurities and toxins which do not
get eliminated efficiently by our body. Hence, after a given period, a
 natural detox cleanse is essential for our body to eliminate these
toxins and impurities. 
Natural
detox cleanse 
is also
essential for our body as it helps rejuvenate our body processes like the
digestive tract, respiratory tract, helps purify our blood and also helps in
boosting our immunity. [1]

Natural detox cleanse

Why do you need a natural detox cleanse?

Our body naturally detoxifies itself with the help of some organs which work together to neutralize and eliminate toxins and impurities from the blood and all the cells of the body. The liver is the main organ responsible for the natural detoxification of the body. The supporting organs which help in detoxification of the body are kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymph, and skin. When this natural liver detox of the body gets compromised or does not function efficiently, impurities and toxins are not eliminated out of your body effectively. Hence, it is essential to naturally detox and cleanse these detoxification organs of the body with natural foods and nutrients.

There are many reasons due to which the natural detoxification of the body gets compromised. The new lifestyle changes are the main reasons why there is an increase in day to day exposure to toxins and impurities. As per a recent study, significant factors contributing to increased toxins and impurities within the body are:

⮚ Prolonged high stress

⮚ Heavy metals in the food and water supply

⮚ Environmental pollution

⮚ Chemical food additives

⮚ Overuse of Rx medication

⮚ Poor quality diet and lifestyle habits

⮚ Frequent cold and chronic illness

⮚ Smoking & overuse of alcohol and drugs [2,3]

Studies in natural detox

Scientists suggest the use of detox diets, which include natural fruits, vegetables, cleansing herbs, and spices, which are clinically proven to support the body in eliminating toxins and impurities from the body. However, there is no significant evidence that backs the use of these detox diets in the elimination of toxins from the body. The mechanism of these diets is also unclear. But studies show that these diets help in optimizing the natural defense system of the body for the elimination of toxins. Certain foods in the diet harm the liver and kidney, which are the prime detoxification organs of the body. As a result, the efficiency of the liver and kidney in eliminating toxins and impurities out of the body is decreased.

In a study, it was found that 90% of alcohol is metabolized in the liver. Excessive alcohol consumption results in the formation of compound acetaldehyde, which is known as a cancer-causing chemical. As a result, the detoxification efficiency of the liver is decreased. Another study suggests that excessive consumption of sugar results in fat deposition in the liver, which negatively affects liver function. [4,5,6]

As per a study, these are some tips for natural detox and cleanse of the body:

1.     Water – Increasing the daily water intake results in flushing out of the toxins from the body through urine. A 2004 Japanese study conducted on people with chronic constipation found an inverse relationship between the amount of water intake and the severity of constipation. [7]

2.     Sleep – Adequate amount of sleep helps your body to rest and recharge itself. In a study, it was found that during our sleep, our detoxification organs perform at maximum efficiency in eliminating toxins out of the body.

3.     Natural foods – It is essential to consume whole foods containing all necessary vitamins and minerals for the healthy functioning of the detox system of the body. It is crucial to include antioxidant-rich foods along with probiotics in the diet.

4.     Decrease salt intake – Higher amount of salt in the diet causes the body to retain excess fluid. The excess fluid build-up within the body does not allow the body to eliminate the toxins inside the body. [8,]
