Homeostasis: “the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements.” Our amazing bodies were built to achieve this beautiful balance, yet we live in an environment replete with pollutants, pesticides, heavy metals, cancer-triggering chemicals and a host of other toxins that breed inside and outside our bodies, disrupting our natural harmony and impeding our systems from working at their full potential. This includes our detoxification system.
With a clean, raw, plant-based diet, you empower your body to harness its innate ability to detoxify itself, using its complex systems and mechanisms to remove waste, toxins, excess hormones and other unwanted substances that cause both short- and long-term health issues.
But… Do You Still Need to Detox If You’re Eating Healthy?
Even with a consistently healthy diet, we are more and more beleaguered by an overwhelming amount of toxin sources that accumulate over time and slow down our natural detoxification systems, causing a congestion of toxins that get stored in our cells and tissues.
This is why the occasional detox is essential—with or without any known health issues. And, as described above, even if you’re eating a raw, plant-based diet, there are scores of other toxins that attack your body, so you should cleanse your body even then.
Before you run for the hills, know this: A full-body detox will make you feel lighter, more alive and brimming with energy. It will make you look better on the outside and feel fantastic on the inside. Done correctly, a detox should NOT make you feel weak, irritated, hungry or foggy. We’ll outline how to detox the “vibrant way” further down below.
Why You Should Detox Your Body Regularly
When our bodies are overburdened with toxins, our systems (metabolic, nervous, digestive, etc…) do not functional optimally. Not only that, but toxins also cause disease, including cancer, heart disease and so many more illnesses.
Without an extra boost of support, our systems—especially our detoxification organs, such as the liver, intestines, kidneys and even our skin—are simply overwhelmed. They cannot perform their jobs as efficiently and, in worst cases, not at all.
By feeding your body with natural, potent ingredients that promote detoxification, you let your organs “rest” and quit working overtime; stimulate your liver so it can focus on getting rid of toxins; encourage toxin elimination through your small intestine, colon, kidneys and skin; and replenish your body with nutrients.
