6 Ways to Detox your Body

29th May 2018 By Fit Chameleon Leave a Comment

 

If you think only of a juice fast when you think of detox then it is time to think again. Detoxing doesn’t mean you have to make an extreme diet choice. When it comes to cleansing you simply need to eat food that clears your gut and drink plenty of water. We reveal 6 healthy ways that you can detox your body and not feel deprived.

 

Consume Anti-Inflammatory Foods

Eat foods such as lean protein, wholegrains, seeds, nuts, beans, veggies and fruit which are fibre rich. Stop eating sugary, processed or fried food to detox your body through a healthy diet.

 

Drink Water

Unfortunately, alcohol is a no-no. Instead sip water to hydrate your kidneys and flush out toxins. Adding lemon to your water will help your liver to produce extra enzymes. When you get bored of water try green tea which has shown to protect against cancer and heart disease.

 

Be Active

When you sweat you detox your body as you boost circulation. Additionally, exercise reduces stress, helps you feel energised and makes you feel happier.

 

Portion Size

When it comes to meal times, eat slowly and smaller portions. Large portions cause bloating and makes the digestive system work harder. Aim for more frequent and smaller meals and eat slowly to avoid gulping in air.

 

Skin Care

Before you take a bath or a shower, dry brush your skin with a soft brush. This exfoliation helps to produce new cell growth as well as boost your circulation. If you add Epsom salts to your bath you will be cleaned both inside and outside. Your skin will absorb the minerals that Epsom salts give off e.g. magnesium and this can get things moving in your colon.

 

Quality Sleep

To keep your health on the right track, sleep is essential. Make sure that your bedroom is free from screens and is quiet, dark and cool. Try and have a standard bedtime which enables you to get at least seven hours of sleep each night. If you get adequate sleep you will reduce inflammation and stress which allows your body to function at its best.
