How to Detox Your Body
Normally people think about detoxing after the excesses of Christmas and New Year, but I reckon that people should be doing more to keep their bodies clean of nasty toxins and free radicals throughout the year.
Below you will find out about some ways that you can detox your body.
Juicing
Detox Your Body with Juice
Detoxing using fruit and vegetable juice is very easy. Normally I hate vegetable juice but if you combine it with fruit then the taste of vergetable is hidden. If you plan on fasting with juice then do so for just a couple of days.Juicing is great for everyday drinking - I saw a TV show a while ago where they did an experiment with some infertile males. Each man had to drink a special concoction of juice a few times a day to deal with free radicals. The problem with free radicals is that it damages DNA which is important for sperm production. Anyway, after some months it was found that the sperm in all the men not only increased but also were more mobile. By the end of the experiment, one of the couples actually conceived!
When juicing every day it is best to use a blender rather than a juicer. The problem with juice extractors is that they remove all the fibre which is very important to our health.

Cardio Exercise
If you've watched the Dr Mercola video above then you'll know that exercising so that you sweat is really good for detoxing the body.
Going to the gym is ideal because there are so many machines to use such as treadmill, exercise bike, rowing machine and elliptical trainer.
If you can't go to the gym then buying an exercise video is great too. Personally I really like Billy Blanks Tae Bo.

Green Tea
Detox Your Body with Green Tea
It's only been recently that I have been drinking green tea and I'm a big fan. There are a lot of detox plans which are very intensive and can cause skin problems and colds. If you drink green tea on a regular basis you will be gently detoxing your body so you don't have these nasty side-effects.You can buy green tea with added flavourings including mint and lemon however jasmine is my favourite.
Green tea is one of the only natural remedies to have gone through lots of scientific reseach. It has been found to inhibit the growth of cancer cells, improve the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol, help with immune function plus more which you can learn about on my health benefits of tea lens.

Chlorella - Metal Detoxification
Detox Your Body with Chlorella
Chlorella is a type of algae which is a very popular food in Japan. Although not generally eaten in the West it is a popular supplement which is said to have many health benefits.There have been numerous studies carried out allover the world including Japan, America and Germany. It has been found to be especially good for eliminating mercury from the body, taking 3-6 months.
Chlorella is made up of 20% indigestible outer-shell and 80% inner nutrients. It is the outershell which attatches itself to the metal in your body.
NB - Chlorella doesn't remove iron, it actually contains iron so if you already have iron levels that are too high you should avoid chlorella. Also, if you start "burping" chlorella it means that it doesn't agree with you so you should stop taking it.
If you would like to buy chlorella, this is one source that I found:

MSM
Detox Your Body with MSM
MSM is a form of sulphur which you can buy as white odourless powder. Garlic contains sulphur so you can either take three cloves of garlic a day and not care about your breath or you can put some MSM powder in a drink.
Some people use MSM as a detox where they gradually increase the dosage everyday. I haven't done this, instead I just put 5g in a protein shake everyday.
You can buy MSM in capsules but they are generally more expensive and honestly, you don't taste the powder if you put it in a drink.
There are many reasons you might want to take MSM, it's not only good for detoxing but also for improving the quality of your hair, nails and skin, plus it is good for athletes as it promotes muscle recovery.
Some manufacturers sell their MSM to other companies who then package it under their own brand and then charge what they think they can get away with. So have a look at the ingredient list and you will see who manufactured it. You will be amazed at the different prices charged for the exact same product. Personally I use Swanson's OptiMSM as it's great value for money.

Detox Foot Pads
Detox Your Body with Foot Pads
Came accross this interesting little product that claims to detoxify you whilst you sleep. Simply place the pads to the bottom of your feet so that the pad's ingredients pull out toxins from your body.There are quite a few different types to choose from - Gold and Tourmaline, Lavendar, Green Tea, Bamboo, Milk Thistle. It seems that it is the Gold/Tourmaline pads which turn a dark color in the morning when you take the pad off plus they also generate heat. The dark stuff is supposed to be the toxins from your body. Yuck!!
As with most alternative health products, there isn't any scientific proof that these pads work. There are plenty of testimonials, however some people could argue that it is just a placebo effect. Because I haven't used these myself I can't say if they are any good, so if you have used them please sign the guestbook to say what you think of them.
If you want to try it out yourself, here is the link:
