Detox and Its Energy Boosting Benefits

Monday, March 8th, 2010

The weight loss industry has seen significant developments lately, most notable of which is the shift from a strictly exclusive weight loss approach to an all-embracing weight management program that includes detoxification, nutritional support and lifestyle changes.

A routine used in Asian cultures for generations, detoxification is about resting, cleansing and nourishing the body by flushing out harmful toxins and replacing these with health boosting nutrients to renew its ability to guard against disease and maintain peak health.

The body has its own natural defense system and detoxification enhances this system by removing acidic deposits that accumulate and cause sluggish digestive functions.

Eliminating these dangerous toxins through detoxification reprograms the body and gives the digestive system the capacity to function more efficiently. As a result, there is notable increase in metabolism and weight loss or maintenance is naturally enhanced.

Think of how many artificial substances you consume everyday. Hotdogs, bacon and other processed meat products, peanut butter and preserved jams, instant coffee and sweeteners - these are just a few that you have in the fridge and the kitchen pantry. A lot of the liquids you take in are also from processed juice concentrates, soda bottles or powdered preparations.

It doesn’t really matter where they come from: through the air you breathe, absorbed through your skin, digested through the foods you eat, or found in the water you drink, they are almost always hazardous to a person’s health.

A full cleansing detox can reverse the process and rid the body of these harmful elements. You won’t believe how great you’ll feel when you’ve gained back all the energy that the toxins deplete from your body.

Detox, detoxing, detoxification, detox diets - anything that relates to the word ‘toxic’ can sound quite intimidating. But scientific studies have shown that a detox is beneficial to one’s health. With more and more toxins in our environment nowadays, medical experts find it beneficial to undergo internal cleansing once or twice a year. A few days spent detoxing effectively eliminates widespread symptoms that include unexplained fatigue, skin irritations, allergies or low-grade infections, low pain tolerance, menstrual irregularities in women, delayed metabolism and even mental confusion.

One such comprehensive detox program is The Clean 9 Nutritional Cleansing Program, an intensive detox process specifically designed to rid the body of unnatural chemicals and toxin build-up in just 9 days. As it detoxifies, Clean 9 subsequently refuels the body with essential nutrition designed to deliver significant energy boosts, clearer skin, better immunity, improved metabolism and digestion, and increased concentration.

A complete support toolkit that includes a meal planner and an exercise guide, plus a complete manual comes with the system.

Body Detoxing - A Shortcut To A Feeling Healthy

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

A body detox is a full body cleanse that completely rejuvenates you. It does this by eliminating from your body the toxins which are keeping you from being at your best.

These toxins are constantly building up within you, and the more they do so, the less efficiently your organs are able to operate. As your organs becomes less efficient, you start to look and feel bad, with your weight and energy levels being just a couple of the things that are affected.

Fortunately, toxins can be removed from the body, and the damage that they cause is reversible. To fully remove them, a body detox, which includes the following, is advisable…

- Drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day

- Eating lots of organic fruits and vegetables

- Increasing consumption of wholesome foods (wheats, grains, beans, etc.)

- Taking vitamin supplements

By doing the above for a period of at least a week, you will give your body the time and strength to flush out the toxins that have built up within you. As this happens, amongst other things, your energy levels will rise, your weight will decrease, your eyes will become brighter, and your skin and hair will be become softer.

Side effects of a body detox are minimal, and are only uncomfortable at worst. During the first few days, as the toxins are being flushed out through your skin, and in your stools, mild headaches and slight sweating can be expected. After those initial days though, you will start to feel better than you have done in a long while.

As for when to undergo a body detox, it should be considered any time that you are not feeling at your best, which is typically after any time of extended indulgence, such as after Christmas or a vacation. You do not have to wait until you feel bad to start one though, as detoxing whilst you are already healthy will just make you feel even better.

So, if you have not yet started planning your body detox, then now is the time to start. Remember, the sooner you start, the sooner you can be back feeling at your best!

How To Manage Food Cravings

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Most diet plans require you to eat smaller portions of food at only scheduled meal times. This is difficult for many dieters to adhere to as they get feelings of hunger within a couple of hours of having eating a meal. Inevitably, these feelings can become too much and they end up snacking and straying from their diet plan. The next time you’re in this position though you can try these methods for delaying your need to eat.

Drink a few glasses of water. Sometimes we’re thirsty rather than hungry, and our brain interprets this incorrectly and gives us signals to eat. Water will act as a temporary filler in your stomach. Staying hydrated is essential to any diet plan anyway, since it helps clear your system of waste, but it this added benefit.

Exercise. Distraction is the main aim with exercising when hungry, though burning off a few extra calories is a welcome benefit. You don’t have to do anything particularly strenuous, a short walk, jogging on the spot or press-ups will suffice.

Find an activity to do. Finding something to entertain yourself works in the same as doing some exercise. Distraction is the aim. Watching TV or listening to music won’t suffice though as your mind will still wander back to food. Instead try playing a game, writing an email or letter, or drawing.

Chewing on something.  Chewing sugar-free gum is a simple method for the short-term gratification of your hunger. If chewing gum doesn’t achieve the desired effect for you, pick a low-calorie snack like nuts or raw vegetables instead. Whichever you opt for, your body and brain will be satisfied that you’re taking in more food and the cravings will cease.

Obviously these methods are only temporary but they are more than enough to get you through a couple of hours until your next planned meal time. Don’t try to apply them to starve yourself for a day or more at a time though because your body will adapt and will store up food as fat the next time you eat.

5 Foods To Help Men Be Healthier

Friday, September 11th, 2009

Tomatoes. This fruit contains a powerful nutrient called lycopene, which has been shown to be beneficial in preventing prostate cancer in men. To get the full health benefits of this healthy nutrient the tomatoes should be broken down, so go for tomato sauce and tomato juice as opposed to whole tomatoes.

Oysters. This seafood is a superior protein source and is great for helping to build lean muscle. They also supply omega 3’s and zinc, of which lots of men are lacking, and aid in testosterone production.

Brazil Nuts. As a type of food in general, nuts are a great nutrient snack full of fiber, healthy fats and protein. However, Brazil nuts stand out from the others in that they are especially high in selenium, a mineral that is vital in antioxidant production to fend off disease. Eating just one Brazil nut gives you your recommended daily allowance of selenium.

Broccoli. There is considerable evidence showing the anti-cancer benefits of this superfood. It’s high in minerals and antioxidants that both detoxify your blood arteries and keep cells strong and healthy.

Flaxseed. These are a good source of nutrients and fiber and they help you dispose of toxins. To acquire the full health benefits from them they need to be ground before they’re eaten. Once ground they can be added to cereal, oatmeal, meatballs and shakes.

There are of course other healthy foods to choose from but the ones listed here are a great place to start. Start this month by increasing the amount of these that you consume, and then add additional healthy foods to your regular diet month by month.
