TOXINS IN THE BODY

Toxins are agents which are harmful to the body for example, tobacco smoke, factory pollution etc. these are created by the body during metabolic process and if left for a long time might cause problem for the body. So, it is better that these harmful agents are removed from the body. The process of removing these agents is called detoxification i.e. “cleaning the blood”.

The most important method of removing toxins from your body is through elimination of urine and stools. It is very important to have regular bowel movements to prevent the body getting back the toxic substances. Lemon juice in water has a slightly laxative effect and can be so effective in removing toxins from the body. Add a teaspoon of lemon into warm water and drink immediately after rising in the morning.

Water therapy is also good for toxin removal. Drink 1.5litters of water in the morning and wait foe about 45minutes before taking any other thing. Also get used to drinking water as much as needed during the day.

Fasting is another way to detoxify the body. Some people prefer fasting on water while some go for fasting on raw fruits and vegetables. Water fasting is more difficult but more effective. Not only will fresh fruits and vegetables diet eliminate toxins, it will improve vitality and stamina, help you digest better. Which ever one you decide on, do it under the supervision of your doctor.
