9. Drink More Pure Water Tea is great, but so is pure H20. In fact, health experts recommend that people drink at least six glasses (8 ounces each) of water every day. A lot of people don’t drink enough water and this may lead to dehydration, which triggers fatigue. As well, the body can’t rid itself of toxins effectively unless it’s getting sufficient hydration. So, make a point of drinking pure water whenever you can. If your urine is typically darker in color, rather than almost clear or clear, you’re probably not getting enough water. Luckily, it’s easy to fix this. If you're one of those that feel water is a little boring and plain but don't want to add sugary drinks to your diet and detox plan a great alternative to really boost the flavor plain old water is a fruit infused water bottle! Infusing water with fruits, herbs, and vegetables is a smart way to add flavor without adding calories. 8. Sweat Out The Impurities There are different ways to sweat out the impurities inside of your body and one of them is a soothing sojourn in a sauna. Check your local community center listings online in order to see if a sauna is found at a community pool. Private spas may also offer sauna services. 7. Do an Exfoliating Skin Treatment Toxins may be released out of our skin and regular exfoliation will promote the release of harmful substances within our bodies. To perform this sort of spa treatment at home, buy a creamy organic scrub which is just abrasive enough to remove dead skin cells and other impurities. Then, apply it by gently massaging it in and then rinsing it off with warm water. Dry skin brushing is also a great way to exfoliate. There are different methods here to try – no matter what you choose, you’ll find that exfoliation reveals fresher skin which is radiant and also helps you to detox. 6. Detoxify Your Home Your home environment may contain pollutants which enter your body via your skin, lungs or mucous membranes. One great way to combat allergens, toxins and other environmental
pollutants is to use a vacuum which includes a HEPA filter. This type of filter is designed to capture more pollutants and allergens, such as dust mites and pet dander. Also, try to use green cleaning products which are non-toxic. Avoid chemical air fresheners and other lab-created home care products. Hardwood floors may be easier to keep toxin-free than carpets, so consider a switch if it’s feasible, particularly if you suffer from allergies or asthma. 5. Avoid Processed Food We are what we eat and loading up on processed food tends to encourage toxin overload. While it’s tempting to go for convenience foods which are processed, since they are usually so easy to enjoy, it’s not the best strategy for your health. The truth is that taking the time to make an organic salad, rather than breaking open a bag of chips or nuking a processed microwave meal, will be the best thing that you can do for yourself. So, try to clear the junk food out of your diet. Salt, sugar, bad carbs and bad fats abound in processed foods, as do chemical additives. Taking them out will spark a detox which helps you to feel better. 4. Do Workouts Regularly Regular cardio exercise will help you to rid your body of what it doesn’t need! Examples of cardio exercise include aerobics, tennis, brisk walking and running. However, there are plenty more. It’s best to find something that you really enjoy, so you’ll look forward to exercise, rather than dreading it. Look for something which will help you to break a sweat. As a bonus, cardio exercise will put you in a better mood and help you to manage stress more effectively. 3. Add Green Smoothies to the Mix Replacing a single meal per day with a super-healthy green smoothie will help you to strengthen your body and kick out toxins. One simple recipe for a tasty green smoothie is to blend a cup of trimmed kale greens with a single green apple (chopped), a ripe banana and half a cup of flatleaf parsley (chopped). Add two cups of water (use a bit more water if you prefer a thinner texture) and blend until combined.
