dandelion detoxA Quick And Easy Guide To Internal Cleansing

These days there is a lot of talk and more than a little bit of hype about internal cleansing and detoxification.

In this article I want to clarify what internal cleansing is, identify the types of cleansing and give you an idea of where to start.

The first thing to understand about cleansing and detoxification is that it’s something that the body does everyday, all day long.

The body is perfectly designed to eliminate toxins and unusable substances on its own.

The major cleaning organs of the body are the lungs, the liver, the kidneys, the colon and the skin. When these organs are working at their best, radiant health naturally follows. However, over time, they can start to function poorly, which opens the door for disease.

detoxing the bodyThere are three major factors that determine how well the 5 organs of elimination work.

  • First is the quality of the air you breathe, the water you drink and the food you eat. If any of these is contaminated with chemicals like chlorine and pesticide residues or pollution like dust and carbon, you put extra stress on these organs.
  • Second is the quantity and type of food you eat. The organs of elimination do best with simple whole fresh foods eaten in small quantities.
  • Finally there is the question of exercise. All internal systems work better when you get plenty of exercise.

Simply changing these 3 elements will help your body detox naturally.

It can also help to regenerate and restore your organs.

And that’s where internal cleansing starts – with changing any habits that interfere with the function of the:

  • lungs,
  • liver,
  • kidneys,
  • skin and
  • colon.

Here are 7 things you can do to support these organs.

skin brushing

1. Practice deep breathing – yoga and chigong are two traditional disciplines that can help you learn how to do this.

2. Take liver cleansing herbs such as dandelion and milk thistle.

3. Drink 1 oz. fresh parsley juice to cleanse the kidneys.

4. Practice skin brushing and stop using any chemical soaps and lotions on your skin.

5. Complete a cleansing program that addresses you colon health.

6. Change your diet to include mostly fresh fruits and vegetables.

7. Learn to fast regularly – this gives your body a chance to regenerate.

There is no doubt that the range of potential health benefits is broad and impressive when you learn to care for internal systems of your body.

For the beginner I recommend starting with a complete program that teaches you how to change your diet and slowly add herbs that will help restore the function of the internal cleansing organs.

The pollution your body is exposed to daily, and your consumption of various types of junk food, coffee, aerated drinks, alcohol etc leads to the accumulation of various toxins in your body.

These toxins are harmful, some are even poisonous substances that need to be cleaned out of your body at regular intervals, other wise they might prove seriously detrimental to your overall health.

How to Detox the Body: Garlic and Cilantro

February 16th, 2009

Detox Foods To Eat And Detoxify Naturally

To illustrate how important the quality of the food you ingest on a daily basis is, just imagine your body as a perfect engine (Which it is!) food is the fuel you feed it to enable it to achieve peak performance.

The cleaner and purer the fuel, the better and smoother the engine’s performance.

Makes sense, doesn’t it?



In the same way that some foods slow our body engine down, creating deposits which interfere with the smooth running of the various parts.

Other foods we eat can actually act as “engine cleaners and boosters” these are the ones we call detox foods. Fortunately, they are abundantly available in nature, and anyone can have access to them.

New discoveries are being made every day on previously unknown properties and benefits some of our common foods possess. However, the ones we’re listing in this article have undeniably proven their positive role in cleansing our engine and boosting its power.

Why detox?

Toxin build-up has become more of a concern in the twenty first century than ever before. Industrial and technological progress has resulted in many new and stronger chemicals, air and water pollution, radiation and nuclear contamination.

Due to medical advancement we are using more drugs that promise to rid us of our various day-to-day ailments.

We eat a higher percentage of refined foods, and stress is leading us to abuse our bodies with stimulants or sedatives.

Two of the main toxicity diseases are cancer and cardiovascular disease and they are happening to an alarmingly higher percentage of the population today. Others include arthritis, allergies, obesity, and many skin problems.

Many common symptoms, such as headaches, fatigue, muscular pain, cough, gastrointestinal problems and immune system weakness, can all be attributed to toxic overload.

Accumulated toxins in the body range from undigested organic matter, to metallic deposits such as lead, mercury, copper and aluminium we ingest through food and air.

Environmental toxins, as well as those emitted by household furnishings accumulate in our body. Free radicals are also considered biochemical toxins and stress causes great toxicity in the body.

One thing is certain we are all in contact with toxins on a daily basis.

Fortunately, nature seems to have an answer to this problem, it comes in the form of food.

Detox foods

Garlic

juice detox, garlicGarlic has been used for its beneficial effects for thousands of years. It is a blood cleanser, a natural antibiotic it also reduces blood fats thinning the blood and lowering blood pressure.

To avoid the lingering smell when you eat raw garlic, simply peel the garlic clove, cut it lengthways and remove the heart (which is sometimes green).

If you prefer to avoid the smell of garlic altogether, there is a multitude of garlic supplements in the health food shops to choose from.

Coriander (Cilantro)

Some studies have shown that the leaves of the coriander plant can accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead and aluminium from the body.

This delicious herb, when added to food, can greatly contribute in the detox process. It is available all year round. You can use it instead of basil to make a delicious coriander pesto.

Mix fresh coriander leaves (about 25 stems) with 1/2 a cup of pine nuts, 1 clove of garlic, 2 tablespoons of lemon and 5 tablespoons of olive oil in a blender until you get a smooth paste (you can make the paste less lumpy by adding hot water). It’s very tasty with pasta or as an accompaniment to vegetables or fish.

Other detoxifying roots and herbs include:

  • Echinacea: A lymphatic cleanser
  • Dandelion root: A tonic, a liver and blood cleanser, diuretic and filters toxins
  • Cayenne pepper: Purifies the blood, increases fluid elimination and encourages sweating
  • Ginger root: Stimulates blood circulation and sweating
  • Liquorice root: Is a potent detoxifier it also balances biochemical functions and acts as a mild laxative
  • Parsley leaf: A diuretic it flushes the kidneys
  • Red clover blossoms: A blood cleanser that’s very useful during convalescence and recovery.
  • Fresh Vegetables Great detox vegetables include broccoli, cauliflower, broccoli sprouts and onions. Artichokes are well known for their liver detoxifying properties. Also recommended are beetroot and red and green vegetables.
  • Fresh Fruits All fresh fruit is good for detox provided it is eaten on its own, not before, with, or after food. A fresh fruit or fruit juice fasting is often recommended for a short (3-day) fast to cleanse and detoxify. Fruit can be fresh, frozen or dried. It includes apples, pears, oranges, grapefruit, bananas, raisins, pineapple, mango, kiwi fruit, raspberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, melons, sultanas nectarines and peaches.
