Seven Days to Detoxification

Awareness is one key factor to be able to stay away from illnesses and diseases. With today’s medical costs soaring high, it is quite expensive to get sick.

Even the environment that you live in can affect the level of toxins inside the body. When the toxins are too much for the body’s natural detox process, the toxins build up. This build up can have certain harmful effects to the body which might cause a person to get sick.

Internal Colon Cleanse The Why’s and How’s of It

 

Internal Colon Cleanse The Why’s and How’s of It

Using the Internal Cleanse can provide a profound effect on your body’s health.  When we reach adulthood, your body may be filled with waste and toxins that prove deadly after time.  By doing an internal cleanse you can free your internal organs from impurities, thereby reviving your immune system.  It has been proven that by getting rid of the wastes you will begin to feel healthier in a short period of time.

Because our bodies can’t keep up with all of those toxins building up in our body from all the processed foods we eat and drink, the air pollution we breathe and the drugs that we take.  With any internal cleanse we need to eliminate all the toxic plaque, parasites and debris that has been building up for al those years.  One should perform an internal cleanse at least 1-2 times per year.  

Research has proven that one of the major causes of the body breaking down is it’s inability to rid itself of all the toxins  and chemicals that are part of our daily diet.  The cells, tissues, and organs accumulate and store these free radicals  and then gradually the body begins to breakdown under the weight of these foreign agents and your health suffers.  

Along with colon cleansing a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress reduction can play a role in helping you maintain a smooth running body.  Colon cleanse helps the clean the body and control the chemicals that ingested and inhaled daily.  When the body is clean and working at it’s optimum level new life choices become available for a long and healthy life.

Cleanse your Body with an Acai Berry Detox and Live Longer

 

Free radicals are harmful pollutants and toxins that accumulate in your body, damaging cells in a process referred to as oxidative stress. Neutralizing free radicals with a high antioxidant diet will make you look and feel younger and make you feel more energetic.

Exposure to free radicals damage the cells in your body and is referred to as oxidative stress. A way to combat the unhealthy effects of oxidative stress is a high anti-oxidant diet which neutralizes nasty free radicals in the system. High levels of anti-oxidants are found in a variety of fruit and vegetables some much more than others. Embarking on such a diet is the first step in detox and living healthier.

The health benefits of a good detox diet will naturally aid the body to flush out the harmful toxins and poisons, which cause weight gain, poor skin, diseases and bad bacteria.

To begin detoxing, drink plenty of mineral water each day and embark on a high antioxidant diet. This does not mean dramatically changing your diet to eating loads of fruit and veg, but you can purchase a superfood supplement such as acai berry, a tropical fruit of the Amazonian Rainforest. Acai berry is classed as a ‘#1 superfood’ because of its extremely high anti-oxidant levels and multiple health benefits. Among the benefits of consumption of the fruit are:

Reduces aging of the skin and rejuvenates skin cells
Promotes a healthy immune system to fight of diseases
Improves stomach digestion and improves your metabolism burning off excess fat
Natural weight loss
Keeps the heart healthy and reduces risk of heart disease
Excellent for it’s anti cancer causing properties
Is good for people with diabetes

Acai berry has become popular and is classed a superfood because it has one of the if not the highest concentration of anti-oxidants among all fruits. You can consume it in various forms directly eating the fruit, which you don’t see in many supermarkets, or you can buy drinks and smoothies containing acai berry. To get maximum exposure and maximum effect, however, would be to buy a concentrated acai berry supplement. There are many acai berry supplements available from health stores like Holland & Barrett, but contain added fillers and additives. Pure Acai Berry Max is a 100% pure freeze dried acai berry supplement with no additives or fillers.

Dr. Mark Hyman Shares Information On Nutrition, Toxins And Vitamins

 

Dr. Mark Hyman Shares Information On Nutrition, Toxins And Vitamins

This interview is an excerpt from Kevin Gianni’s The Healthiest Year of Your Life Program which can be found at http://www.thehealthiestyearof.com http://yourlife.com. In this excerpt, Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D. weighs in nutrition, toxins and finding the right the vitamins.

The Healthiest Year of Your Life Excerpt with Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D., a best-selling author, a respected medical consultant and a leader in the field of functional medicine.

Kevin: Let’s talk about a little bit about the raw food and vegan diet and how it fits into this type of functional medicine.

Mark: Sure. I think everybody is different and I don’t think there’s a one-size-fits-all diet. Some people thrive on a vegetarian diet. Other people are extraordinarily sick on a vegan or vegetarian diet. I’ve had many patients on raw foods and vegan diets who are extraordinarily malnourished. Then I’ve seen people who manage it quite well.

I think you have to look at what’s right for each person. So I don’t think that any general recommendations are helpful. I also think it depends on where you live. If you’re living in Manitoba, a raw food diet is probably not the best thing. If you’re living on the island in Fiji, you probably could thrive on a raw food diet. It’s also think locally, eat locally. I think it’s a very important thing. What’s local? What’s native to your area? What’s going on with your own biology and genetics and body. I think you have to be careful if you’re doing a raw food, or vegan diet. It’s easy to become malnourished and you have to supplement, I believe, with nutrients and really be smart about it.

Kevin: Anything specific?

Mark: What I would say is that probably 90% of your diet should be a plant-based diet. Whether it’s cooked or uncooked, I think Michael Pollan said, “Eat food, meaning real food.” Not too much and mostly plants. Plant foods have all the phytochemicals and nutrients and things that your body needs to thrive and without them you don’t. The phytochemicals that are from colorful fruits and vegetables in plant foods that are essential for life.

Kevin: What are some of the most potent toxins that you encounter?

Mark: I would say probably without a doubt, the most serious threat to our health in terms of toxins is mercury. It’s something I see and treat every day that affects, I would say, the majority of my patients in one way or another. It’s important to identify. It’s mostly ignored and it’s relatively easy and safe to treat.

Kevin: Anything else?

Mark: Well, I think the rest of it is all common sense. We should be eating food that’s organic whenever we can. We should stay away from hormones, pesticides and antibiotics and any animal products. There are over 3500 food additives added to our food supply. There’s no reason that we need to be eating anything other than food.

Kevin: Yeah. What I like about your books and your programs is that you give real world examples of things working. What are some of your favorite stories, or favorite successes?

Mark: Well, I have many, many of them. One of them was a doctor who had been sick for 30 years and had chronic fatigue and heavy metal poisoning. She was overweight, had diabetes, couldn’t sleep. She was depressed and not able to function anymore. She had some very deep issues and we detoxified her and used heavy metal detoxification, used intravenous glutathione, sauna therapy, a whole integrated approach and she recently performed in a triathlon, which is fantastic for someone who could barely get out of bed. So that was a very gratifying experience.

I’d seen another woman who had severe depression for 30 years and when we detoxified her she got better.. Another young girl who was unable to focus or concentrate on multiple psychiatric medications, but with sauna therapy and intravenous treatment for toxicity, as well as oral treatment, she did phenomenally well and said to me the other day, “Dr. Hyman, I had not even been able to read a magazine or book in seven years and I feel I have myself back and I wake up every day happy and alive, where I thought it was going to kill myself.”

Kevin: Wow. You mentioned glutathione. Can you explain what that is for people who don’t know?

Mark: Yeah. The body had its own system for detoxifying and the major force in that system is glutathione. It is the body’s major detoxifier and it’s made from a number of amino acids, glutamine, systene and lysine that are eaten in our food, mostly in sulfur containing foods, such as whey protein or eggs, garlic, and the broccoli family. It’s critical in the detoxification process, as well as the major antioxidants and it’s also involved in immune function and inflammation, but what happens is that because of our overwhelming toxic load and because half of us have a gene that makes us not too able to actually do this, then we become depleted in glutathione. So we have to learn, one, that if we are and two, we have to actually do a lot of things to boost our own glutathione levels, which we can do through diet, eating broccoli and collards and the whole cruciferous family and the garlic family, if you’re taking herbs or using various supplements, like vitamin C, selenium, zinc and systene and lypoic acid and a number of other things. So all of these things are ways we can actually help the body detoxify.

Kevin: What do you think about the philosophy of intuitive eating? Do you think there’s some ground to that, that your body knows what to eat and when to eat it?

Mark: Well, certainly that’s true of animals, right? And it’s certainly true of babies. They self regulate. I think we have to recognize that our bodies have innate wisdom and that if we provide things which are naturally supportive of our body’s physiology, it will self regulate. I think that when we get off of the toxic foods, these are extraordinarily addictive kinds of substances and the additives and sugars and high fructose corn syrup and trans fats, our bodies self regulate very well.

Kevin: Now, I want to talk about some of the things that you’ve covered in some of your books, like feed reactive protein and homocysteine and those effects on health. I think it’s kind of important to know what those are and what someone can do to recognize if they have high levels of them.

Mark: Right. What I do talk about in all The Seven Chis to Ultra Wellness and in my books are how to look at each systems. One of the tests you can do if you think you have a problem, so if you take the quiz and you find you have an issue in one or a different area, what do you do about it and there are a lot of different tests I use. You mentioned two I talked about, but it certainly doesn’t mean that there are only two. One is called feed reactive protein and it’s a non-specific type of test that measures inflammation. So it’s a very good marker of generalized inflammation in your body. If it’s high it tells you that something is wrong. It doesn’t tell you what it’s from, but it tells you there’s something wrong. It will then drive you to look for something. The second thing is that inflammation can also relate to toxicity, but it’s often another allergen or infection, or dietary things, sugar and so forth.

Homocysteine is a marker of a level of folic acid and also a function that we call, methylation, in your body and there’s two things are required for detoxification. One is sulfation, which is the process of moving around sulfur molecules and producing glutathione and any other is methylation, which is moving around of carbon and free hydrogen. That is a key function in the body that is involved in every chemical reaction and in order for you to have a proper methylation system, you have to have adequate levels of folate, B6 and B12 and if you’re homocysteine is high, it’s an indicator that you may be deficient and you may have some problems in this area. It’s very easy to treat by getting really, really very good quality folate in special forms, as well as adequate levels of B6 and B12.

Kevin: Is there a way that the consumer can figure out what’s the best quality supplement?

Mark: Yeah. I think there’s generally a couple of things I should say about this. First, there’s no regulation in this industry. So it’s up to self policing of these companies to determine whether not they’re actually going to put what they say on the label in the bottle, or whether they’re going to put other things in there that are toxic. There are ways of finding out how these companies do their manufacturing. Do they send their products out for third-party analysis to look for impurities, toxins, as well as the active ingredients? Do they use fillers and additives and shellacs and petrochemicals and colors and dyes in the supplements?

In other words, if you’re taking some of the common multivitamins that are blue and pink, why do you want to be taking blue dye for the rest of your life, if you’re taking a multivitamin? It’s just common sense with some of these things and then there’s generally different places these are sold. For example, in large places like Wal-Mart and Costco they only have poor quality brands and then there will be the drugstore brands and then there will be the health food brands, which are generally better and from smaller companies and then there’s the professional brands, which is what I use, which are really designed for medical and nutritional therapy and they’re a little bit harder to get, but you can get them from various pharmacists and doctors.

Kevin: Great. Well, I do want to wrap up by talking a little bit more about The Ultra Simple Diet.

Mark: Well, The Ultra Simple Diet was something that I wrote almost as an add-on to my book, Ultra Metabolism and I realized that people needed a quick start and I basically just put together iwhat I’ve learned in my practice over the last 15 years working with people and doing these programs with them on an individual basis and what I found was really profoundly effective. It’s very clear, very simple, laid out step-by-step what to do to help your body take a break and the reason that I designed it this way and that I encourage people to do it is that most people don’t know how bad they feel, number one and number two, that this is a relatively simple thing that anybody can do. It’s not a fasting program, but it is a powerful detoxification program, so you can continue your life without having to stop and go to an island and drink juice all day. I think that it’s extraordinarily effective in helping people connect how bad they feel with what they’re eating and their behaviors, which most people don’t do.. They think that their symptoms and how they feel is sort of random. It’s unrelated to what they’re doing and the choices that they’re making, but it’s not and they have full control over it and when they do this program and anybody can do anything for a week, then they make the connection and see how they are acting and how they feel and then they can make a choice. Do I want to feel like this, or not?

The Detox Diet For Dummies

 

The Detox Diet For Dummies

When you’re learning about something new, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of relevant information available. This informative article should help you focus on the central points.


If you’re feeling sluggish, or you think you’re always full and the food has settled in your stomach, undigested. If you think you’re fat and need to lose weight. And if you think that you’ve ingested more than the allowed preservatives and additives into your body and your liver’s starting to show symptoms of abuse, then it’s time for you to go on a Detox program.


Detox or detoxification is the process of neutralizing or eliminating toxins from the body. Detox plans may be in different forms and ways – from regular exercise to body scrubs and spa massages, to yoga and meditation. But the simplest and the most common perhaps is to go on a detox diet.


A detox diet is a program that minimizes the chemicals ingested into the body by going for organic food. It highlights food like vitamins and antioxidants that the body needs for detoxification. It also involves taking in of food that will aid in the elimination of toxins like high fiber food and water. It generally suggests a high intake of fresh vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts and lots of fluids, while cutting down on caffeine, alcohol, yeast and sugars.


So why go for a detox diet? If you’re a regular fast food chain eater, you’ve probably ingested many fat-soluble chemicals contained in the French fries, cheeseburgers, twisters and soft drinks you’ve consumed. An ‘overload’ of these chemicals in the body can lead to illness and conditions like liver malfunction, kidney problems, hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiencies and inefficient metabolism. And the most common symptoms of these illnesses are the usual fatigue, poor skin and low tolerance to pain.


By going on a detox diet, people would have improved energy, clearer and fairer skin, a regular bowel movement, improved metabolism and digestion, increased concentration. Generally, it spells wellness and a better well-being.


A word of caution… though anyone is allowed to take on a detox diet, pregnant women or those who are nursing are cautioned not to go on such plans as they need the necessary nutrient for nursing. And unless recommended by a doctor, people with anemia, eating disorders, heart disease, low immunity, low blood pressure, ulcers, cancer, the underweight or those suffering from alcohol or drug dependency should try on a detox diet. Furthermore, such detox diet programs should be properly planned with the doctor and a nutritionist.


Other Things You Need to Know


Side effects may occur within the first few days of starting the detox diet. There’s headache and a general feeling of weakness as the body is adjusting to the change in food intake. So it is recommended to start your diet plan gradually or on Fridays when you won’t be doing much physical activity or requiring much energy. Others may experience diarrhea as the body eliminates the toxins, so take care not to be dehydrated. Drink plenty of water.


Take note that such detox diet programs should not be done for a long time. They are normally recommended to be done at least one to two times a year, and should be done during the warm months.


If you’re thinking of getting started, make sure you consult a doctor or a nutritionist. Read up on detox diets and seek advice from the experts. Remember: Too much is bad. After all, you’re doing it to improve your health, not ruin it!
