De-toxing

One of the easiest ways to begin de-toxing is simply to wisely choose the foods and beverages you put in your body, and which chemicals you breathe into your lungs, which will decrease the amount of toxic material you will have to eliminate. Standard Process has a supplement that is an extract of liver, which helps speed the process of the liver detoxification. A variety of herbal substances also help cleanse and detoxify, including silimoran, artichoke heart, milk thistle and tumeric.

Diet plays a large role in the toxic load on your body. What you come to realize is all you're doing is finding a diet that fuels your body with the fewest number of harmful consequences. By fueling your body this way you'll have more energy and less illness. I have incorporated both the Blood Type Diet and the Food Combination Diet into my life with much success. Pesticide and hormone-free foods are an essential part of decreasing your toxic load.

Kombucha tea has also been ascribed wonderful detox benefits by many sources and can be a simple way to assist your body in the healing process. The internet has many resources for information on kombucha and how to prepare it, including a kombucha network to find you a starter mushroom.

I recommend what I call the Lemon Routine for patients with infections and for detoxification. Lying on your left side, take an enema with the juice of 1/2 fresh lemon (not from concentrate) in a quart of lukewarm water. After evacuating the enema from the bowel, take the other half of the lemon and rub the cut edge all over the skin - arms, legs, abdomen, all over. Then immediately climb into a bathtub full of water, as hot as you can tolerate. Stay in the bath for 15-20 minutes.

Make sure that you are properly hydrated before performing the lemon routine, because the lemon juice on the skin will cause the pores to open up and the hot bath will cause you to perspire excessively. Also, be certain that there is someone there with you, because following the bath clients are frequently too weak to pull themselves out of the tub. When the bath is finished, you should quickly wrap yourself up warmly and quickly go to bed where you will continue to perspire for some time.

The lemon routine causes improved elimination through both the bowel and the skin, and is a most important helper in the treatment of infections. Many times, this procedure will bring on a healing crisis, and you will be better either immediately afterwards or by the next day. This is also a good routine for preventive maintenance to keep your system flushed.
