Have you ever wondered what kind of detoxes there are?

Where do you even start when you want to go into detox?

That's what we're gonna talk about today. So if you've never done a detox before and this is your first time taking the step to do it, Congratulations! You're in a great place.

Doing a detox can actually be quite challenging and the first few days is almost always the hardest. Like I said in video, Can a detox help you get rid of belly fat?, at the end of the detox you can feel amazingly cleansed, totally full of focus and you are able to get rid of a lot of ailments that may have been frustrating you.

In order to prepare for a detox, you need to sit and think about how and what you are going to do. There are a lot of ways to do a detox, depending pn your reasons for doing it.

First of all, if you've never done one and your diet is currently filled woth lots of fast foods, pre-packaged meals, junk, sugar, etc, I highly suggest that you start with at least cutting out the sugar in your diet. What I'm talking about is eating only whole foods. That means NO SUGAR!

When you cut out sugar, you absolutely MUST read the ingredients on any packaged food you buy. You will probably find that you won't be buying it because it probably has sugar in it, if it's in a package. If you have been eating lots of packaged foods, this exercise will challenge you, but trust me, it's worth it! You'll feel so much better and clearer when you start eating all whole foods and cut out all the sugar.

Now if you want to take it to another level, sometimes people do liquid detoxes. It lets your body stop having to worry about processing and breaking down food, so it can rest and detoxify everything yucky out. With liquid detoxes, all you do is drink. You'll juice things. Honestly, you can juice everything. You can juice broccoli, spinach, you can have green drinks, fruit drinks, veggie drinks, carrots, celery, you name it you can juice it.

The most extreme option as far as cleansing goes is to actually have a fast. I've done this before and it's extreme. People do anything from 24 hour to 40 day fasts. If you have not done anything like this before, you definitely want to speak to a health practitioner and make sure you've got someone helping you along the way. Fasting isn't about starving yourself for weight loss. (That won't help you or work for your body in the end.) It's about giving your body time to rest the digestive system. It can be done with colonics to really cleanse yourself. Again, please make sure you consult a health practitioner before doing something like this. There are things to do to prepare yourself for it and steps you need to take after the fast for maximum benefit.

More specific detoxes include heavy metal detoxes, liver and colon cleanse. For each of these consult a local practitioner for herbal supplements that can be taken to help cleanse the specific areas of the body that you are focusing on. You can also speak to the practitioner about any ailments you have that may be helped by doing a detox and they will help guide you through the process and give you the best supplements for what you need.

This is just the basics of detox. Please consult a local health practitioner before doing a detox and work with them to make it most effective for you.

Next time we're gonna dig into colon cleansing and some enimas. It's a bit of a messy topic but we're gonna get into that one. I'll talk to you guys tomorrow. Bye!
