Detoxing and cleansing may be current trending topics, but they’re not new ideas to natural health and also not to your body anyway. Because every day the body detoxifies itself by using the colon, liver and kidneys, lymphatic system, skin, and lungs. On the cellular level, we are constantly creating ourselves anew. If our body is always
cleansing, why then do we often feel sluggish and out of sorts you may ask. Just like you and your 9-5 job, your body gets tired and overworked. If it’s not being fed proper nutrients, the situation just gets worse. Sometimes we need to cleanse through diet to give the natural process a boost. One healthy and easy way to do this is by juicing.
There are several advantages to mental, physical, and spiritual health from daily consumption of fresh juice. A juice detox works incredibly well at cleansing and helps to reset our body system on the metabolic and cellular level. In this way, the entire body benefits. Here are some of the benefits:
1. Juicing enhances and speeds up the elimination of harmful toxins in the colon. The fiber is removed from juice made in a juice machine. The nutrients are simply absorbed into the bloodstream. Without solid food for the colon to digest, it gets to work on removing stored up toxins in the digestive tract.
2. With an enhanced bloodstream, the metabolism process becomes recharged and begins operating at an optimum level giving you more energy.
3. Vegetables hold valuable nutrients of beta-carotene, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, which assist the liver to filter the blood, break down fats, and balance glucose levels. We often talk about cleansing the colon, but assisting
the liver may be one of the most important aspects and benefits of juice cleansing.
4. Many people experience weight loss and a flatter belly. While this is mainly due to limited calorie intake and flushing of excess liquids, the weight loss can be maintained by continuing a healthy diet with raw foods and periodic juice cleansing.
5. Improvement in chronic conditions. Conditions similar as constipation, arthritis, mental confusion, weight gain, and chronic fatigue syndrome are all affected by toxins. With these out of the way, the issues may become less noticeable and possibly improve dramatically.
6.Release of stress. Just as our mental state experiences stress, so do our bodies. Stress is a primary cause of sleeping disorders. A wholly functioning body system can easily let go of stress and allow for a good
night’s sleep.
Though capable of cleansing itself, the body can be assisted through a juice detox diet. The process is active on the
microscopic level, creating optimized health both on the physical and mental levels.
