The Health Benefits of Detox and How Standard Process Can Help
If you’re like most people, even if you had New Year resolutions, you’ve probably given up on them by now. Why not try again? There’s no pressure at this point and you can put more focus on things you want to accomplish.
First and foremost, think about the one thing that is most important to all of us. It’s health! You can always get another job, car, house, etc., but you’ll never get another you.
Do you have any of the following?
- Food cravings
- Weight gain
- Joint discomfort
- Tiredness and/or difficulty sleeping
- Less mental sharpness
- Low libido
- Indigestion or other gastrointestinal issues
- Skin irritation
Why Detox?
Toxins in the air, food, water, home, office, can all contribute to these symptoms and more. We’re exposed to toxins in the environment (exogenous) and our bodies produce waste toxins (endogenous).
The good news is your body has the ability to detoxify itself. However, when the load of toxins becomes too great, you start having issues like those listed above. So every now and then, it’s a good idea to detox for improved health.
So Many Positives
If you want to feel more energized, look better, super-charge your immune system and overall health, let’s look at some of the positives of a body detox:
- Cleans out the built up waste in your digestive tract
- Can reduce inflammation in the body, which may help lessen arthritis and other inflammatory symptoms
- Boosts your immune system to make your body more resistant to germs and environmental toxins
- Improves the look of skin and hair
- If you’re overweight, a detox can help you lose weight (Reminder – this should never be the #1 reason for a detox)
- After a cleanse you feel lighter and more energetic
- A routine body cleanse, about 4 times a year, helps keep your body in better condition by clearing out the digestive tract and detoxifying the liver, which is the main organ responsible for detoxifying the blood
- Less brain fog, clearer thinking
- Improved vitamin absorption
- When you detox, toxins from hyper-processed foods, including sugar and white flour, are released. The hormonal imbalances that create turmoil with your metabolism are considerably lessened.
- Eliminate food sensitivities that can cause inflammation in the body. Gluten, sugar, and dairy are the most common.
- Improved sex life - can’t argue with that!
