DETOX & WEIGHT LOSS HEALTH

In reality, a detox diet aims to help the detoxifying organs (the liver and kidneys) eliminate more toxins, which include heavy metals, free radicals, poisons, dyes, antibiotics, hormones, etc.  

 

What benefits can I expect from a detox?

The health factor is of course paramount. If a very small amount of toxic substances is present in the body, it can get rid of them by itself. But when the quantities of toxins accumulate, especially in the fats and in the liver, the health dangers become concrete. The most visible benefits of a well-executed detox are a better complexion, a "healthy glow", better sleep quality, fewer headaches, more energy and better concentration. Also, sportsmen and women notice that their aches and pains and inflammations are reduced in intensity when they have followed a detox diet.  

 

When to start a detox diet?

The best time to start a detox is at the change of season, especially after the winter. When spring arrives, it is customary to clean up our homes, so why not clean up our bodies? In winter we accumulate more toxins than in summer because we naturally consume more calories. We sweat less, hydrate less and move less.

Naturally, the body's natural detoxification processes also slow down. But we can also detox:

• Before a diet
• After losing a lot of weight
• After a sports season
• Before starting a sports season
• After taking medication

 

How long should my detox last?

To be really effective, a detox should last at least one week and at most three weeks. 

 

What diet should I adopt to eliminate toxins?

It is easier to detoxify the body when you are on a slimming diet or when you have good eating habits. This is because toxins do not often circulate freely, but are stored in fat bodies and stored fats. As you can see, the more fat you burn, the more toxins you can release.

The foods that best stimulate the elimination of waste are:

• Fruit and vegetables
• Fruit juices
• Vegetable juices

 

Which food supplements?

The detoxifying formulas available in the nutritional supplement ranges generally contain natural depuratives such as black radish, artichoke, dandelion, green tea or milk thistle, but also sulphur amino acids and B vitamins. Find the formula that is most targeted and convenient for you, so that you can follow your supplementation programme and reap the full benefits.
