A few years ago, if you suggested to someone that they detoxify their digestive system by fasting, juicing, or eating a raw foods diet, they probably thought you’d gone off the deep end.
Today, detoxing is all the rage… and with good reason.
• According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, more than 2 in 3 adults and about one-third of children and adolescents ages 6 to 19 are overweight or obese.
• One in three American adults are pre-diabetic… and only 10% are aware that they’re at risk.
• Fatigue is the number one complaint doctors hear from their patients.
• Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease affect up to 50 million Americans. Because there is no curative therapy at this time, treatment for autoimmune diseases focuses on relieving symptoms.
• More than 30% of the population suffers from insomnia and approximately 10 million people in the U.S. use prescription sleep aids. People who suffer from sleep deprivation are 27% more likely to become overweight or obese.
• Herbert L. Needleman, M.D., Philip J. Landrigan, M.D., in Raising Children Toxic Free, stated, “Since 1950, at least 70,000 new chemical compounds have been invented and dispersed into our environment. Only a fraction of these have been tested for human toxicity. We are, by default, conducting a massive clinical toxicology trial, and [we], our children and their children are the experimental animals.”
So… what do all of these dire statistics have to do with detoxing? Everything!
When you go on a cleansing regimen, you reduce the amount of toxins going into your body, help your digestive system absorb the nutrients your body needs, and more efficiently get rid of everything that it doesn’t require, flushing out everything that your internal organs have been trying to get rid of.
This detoxification process has many health benefits, including:
1. Increased energy… by leaps and bounds! When you “lighten the load” on your cells, your body no longer has to struggle to flush out stored and incoming toxins.
2. Improved mental focus. Toxins and free radicals that accumulate in the body can severely affect brain function. If you have trouble sleeping, or find it hard to concentrate, try a good detox. You may be surprised at the results!
3. Supercharged immunity. A detox also flushes away free radicals, measurably strengthening your immune system and lowering your risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and many other devastating conditions.
4. Your skin, hair and nails will improve. When you clean out your system, your skin quickly forms new cells, giving you a healthy glow again. Your hair will take on a new luster and problem nails will become strong and healthy again.
5. If you want to lose weight, a good detox… followed by a healthy, mostly plant-based diet… is one of the best ways to do it. Combined with regular exercise, you’ll soon see the pounds start dropping away.
6. Slows down aging… wa-a-a-a-y down! Oxidative stress, caused by free radical formation, results in cellular deterioration, making your skin look old and tired, your hair rough and lifeless, and your muscles and bones weak. Through regular, healthy cleansing, you can retard… and even reverse… many of the symptoms of premature aging.
7. Helps you stop indulging in bad habits… like eating fast food or drinking soda… and replace them with a healthier lifestyle. Detoxing forces a “reset” and starts you on a new and better path to wellness.
While there are many health benefits that can result from detoxing, there are warnings, too.
There are a plethora of detoxification programs available… from extreme water and juice fasting, to a raw fruit and vegetable diet.
Many health practitioners caution against radical detoxing that can lead to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. Anyone with existing health issues should, of course, consult their health practitioner before embarking on a detox program.
