Cleanse Your Body to Improve Your Health



We think nothing about “spring cleaning” our homes. After a long winter, spider webs are everywhere and dust can be an inch thick in places that are rarely seen. Our bodies need the same type of cleansing to maintain our health. Otherwise, the “cobwebs” will clog our arteries and organs and toxic substances will remain in our bodies and make it more difficult to fight off diseases.

There are many types of cleansing methods available and some target different parts of the body. Here are a few ways to cleanse your body to get rid of toxins and improve your health:

Ion cleansing ? Ionic footbaths are popular in spas that offer detoxification. The process includes putting your feet in a warm water bath as the water flows freely beneath your feet. Both positive and negative ions will pull out the toxins in your body.

Colon cleansing ? Your colon can be the cause of many health problems if it isn’t cleaned out periodically. You might experience constipation, bloating and other maladies that can make you ill if your colon is full of toxins. There are many methods of colon cleansing available ? do some research to find one that’s right for you.

Herbal cleansing ? This method of cleansing targets your entire inner body. It’s an inexpensive and gentle way to make sure that residue from pesticides, chemicals and other toxins are flushed from your body.

Other methods to cleanse your body include the Master Cleanse and Parasite and liver cleansing processes. A little research regarding symptoms, what each cleansing process entails, and which would be the best for you to follow can be done online very easily.

After your body goes through the detoxification process, it’s best to adapt a healthy way of eating. The less amounts of processed foods and meat that you ingest will help to keep your system free of the toxins that can damage your health and make you gain unwanted pounds.

Pay attention to the signs your body alerts you to. If you feel sluggish and don’t sleep very well at night, it may be a sign that you need to cleanse your body. Constipation and bloating are also signs that your digestive tract and intestines are in distress and a cleansing program that targets those areas is best to use.

Body detoxification is so much healthier than taking medicines to restore and balance your system. Many medicines only tend to make matters worse in the long run. The natural way to cleanse your body is best if you want to get a head start on eating healthy and nutritious foods because it gives the food a clean slate to nourish your body as it should be.

The Myth of Fattening Food

 

Fattening Food is often seen as bad when we are trying to lose some weight. The first thing that people will stop eating when trying to drop a few pounds is to cut all fatty food. It is a common belief that any food with fat in it is bad for health,but is it all that bad?.

It’s known as the low-fat craze,and in the early 90’s across america it was all that was important if you wanted to look great and stay slim. If you want to lose weight and look great you would need to cut out low fat foods and the low-fat craze was born in the early 90’s. You see it is thought that fattening foods have more than twice the calories of foods that are high in carbohydrates. To lose weight people would replace the same quantity of fat that they would normally eat with an equal amount of carbs.

By that assumption,they are right but in order to maintain good health certain fats are needed by the body. You right by that assumption but for your body to function well you need those certain fats in your diet. Even some cholesterol is needed for the body to function properly. To be able to properly absorb vitamins A,D,E and K,fat is needed to facilitate their absorbance in the body.  To be able to absorb essential vitamins into the body you need these fats as they help to facilitate the process.These vitamins are all fat soluble.

Dietary fats can clean your arterial walls by removing the plaque that builds up and helps with digestion which intern will improve weight loss. The plaque that builds up inside of your arteries is removed by these essential dietary fats which then helps you to lose weight quicker. Don’t make the mistake and start eating too many of these fats as they should not be consumed in large amounts. Make sure you are eating plenty of vegetables and salads.For example instead of using lots of dressing on your salad try some olive oil instead.

The truth about fats and weight loss is that there’s no correlation. For most americans studies have shown that their waistlines are getting bigger even though they are consuming fewer of their calories from fat then in the past. Americans are now getting fewer of their calories from fatty foods. Why is this so? Because when trying to lose wieght if you eat more calories then you burn you will gain weight.

When someone gives up all fats in their diet they tend to eat larger quantities of carbohydrates and refined sugars which leads to weight gain. Carbohydrates and refined sugars are high in calories and will lead to weight gain and studies have shown that people who cut out fats altogether tend to eat more of these foods. Our bodies will continue to crave fat so it is better to consume some fat rather then give it up altogether.

The amount of dietry fats needed daily is 30% of your total daily calories. .If you don’t know how many grams this is just add up your total calorie intake and 1/3 of that will be your fat intake. You might think that this number is high but if you combined it with a healthy balanced diet and ecercise routine you will stay at a more steady weight. 30% fats might seem high to you but it is what is need to stay healthy. So despite what you might read of hear there are certain fats that are needed for your body and there is no such thing as a “fattening food”. The food that you eat will contribute to you daily calories,how many will consume will either impact on your health in a good or bad way.
