Detox your body with a liver detox cleanse

Do you want to lose weight? Although exercise and a healthy diet are the best approaches to take, many are starting to turn to body cleanses, also known as body detoxification. In recent years, multiple celebrities have brought weight loss and cleansing to attention. As nice as it is to hear from a celebrity that you can lose weight with a body cleanse or detox, you may be wondering if this is true. So, is there is a connection between detox and weight loss? Yes and no. It all depends on a number of important factors. These factors include:

The detox diet used. You may be surprised to hear how many ways there are to detox your body. Before you start a body detox plan, it is important to know your options. These options include water fasting, juice fasting, the Master Cleanse, the use of detox pills and patches, the consumption of all-natural foods, and exercise.

Water fasting, juice fasting, and the Master Cleanse are three popular detox diet methods. These methods are popular as they allow for the most weight loss. This is due in part to the elimination of consumption of solid foods. As enticing as it is to lose the most weight, fasting is not right for everyone. Those who are overweight, those who have become dependent on foods, and those with certain medical conditions may not only find it extremely difficult to fast, but dangerous to your health too.

Organic only foods are an easy way to detox your body, as you are still able to eat, unlike with fasting. The detoxification process will be slower, but when you stop putting unnatural foods and chemicals into your body, it can begin to repair itself. If on an organic only detox diet, you may notice a slight weight loss. This is because all-natural foods are healthier.

The length of your detox diet. How long you detox for will impact your results, including weigh loss. Generally speaking, the longer you detox, the more weight you will lose. However, before you start a month long detox plan, it is important to know the risks.

When consuming organic only foods, your body still receives needed nutrients, for that reason cleanses can last much longer. With the Master Cleanse and juice fast, your body will lack nutrients, but it will still receive some. That is why detox lengths vary. Most recommend a week to two weeks, but always listen to your body and its warning signs. As for water fasting, extreme caution is advised. Your body will receive no nutrients at all. Too long, such as five days or more, and the risk of health complications arise.

Your weight. Your current weight will also impact your weight loss success on a detox diet. The more you weigh, the easier it will be for you to lose weight. For example, if you are 20 pounds overweight, you may lose weight on a detox diet. However, if you are at a healthy weight, you may not lose any weight at all.

Your lifestyle changes. As you can see, it is possible to lose weight with a body detox or cleanse. With that said, your weight can return just as easily as you lost it. When you start adding solid foods into your diet, you will automatically start to gain weight. You can, however, make healthy choices. By eliminating foods high in sugar, fats, and calories, or by making the switch to organic, you can maintain a healthy weight for years to come.

You can lose weight on a detox diet, but your results will vary. The main goal of a detox diet should be to improve your overall health and wellbeing. If you are solely interested in losing weight, this approach is not right for you. Remember, your weight loss may be significant, but it will only be temporary. Instead, rely on a combination of healthy eating and exercise.

Fortunately for most of us the human body is very well equipped to detoxify and cleanse itself on its own. It has very complex systems available via your liver, kidneys, and ultimately the waste material to denature, oxidize and eventually eliminate toxins.

As our environment has changed over the last few decades we are exposed to more toxins of a greater variety that are totally unknown to the living system of the human body. This not only puts stress on the detoxification system of the body to eliminate higher and higher amounts of toxins. It also causes a problem for the immune system to deal with these foreign chemicals, that the body is not familiar with.

]]>

Everyday we are exposed to millions of different toxins from water, food, food additives, air and environmental chemicals. Almost all of them are processed by the liver. The liver can easily be overloaded and these toxins build up to the point where the liver becomes sluggish, leading to it having difficulties doing its vital functions.

So when we talk about detoxifying the body, we are talking about a process that can help your body reduce the toxins more effectively, more rapidly and more safely. The cleansing process is more beneficial to people who have chronic degenerative diseases, people who live in highly toxic environments and people who have a very toxic work related environment where they are dealing with chemicals and hazardous materials.

Always remember that, the primary detoxification organ in the body is your liver. When it comes to full body detoxification you want to use a product that cleanses all the organs of elimination and not just the colon. Even though colon cleanses are more popular nowadays, it is alright to use them but the problem is that they only target your colon and to a lesser extent your bowl.

The build-up of toxins is a common threat to health especially in these times of all sorts of pollution, carcinogens as well as from inorganic and over processed foods. These toxins accumulate over time and cause all sorts of malaise from depression to sluggish metabolism and gastrointestinal discomfort. People struggling to lose excess weight find it very difficult to burn calories and lose the fat if there is systemic toxicity and built up residues in the colon, body tissues and vital organs. Detoxifying the body rejuvenates the entire system thereby creating more positive energy for all body processes to function optimally in the same fashion as when an automobile or any type of engine is routinely serviced as noticed in efficiency, change in sound, exhaust and so on. Regular periodic detoxification enhances the immune system and has anti-aging benefits as well.

The commonly used detoxification processes include general detox supplements which have properties of enhancing the body’s natural defence against toxins while the other which focuses of cleansing the colon thereby leading to more and healthier absorption of nutrients, improved feeling of wellbeing via potent herbal formulas. Anyone of the two is beneficial and may be used based on personal preference or peculiar goal. The two methods could also be periodically interchanged since detoxification is supposed to be a long term health strategy at least for those who care most about their health. The formula is especially essential to women in general- as it reflects beauty which comes from within the system and in turn radiates outwards with glowing skin, healthier hair and eyes. Middle age and senior citizens also benefit tremendously because the need tends to increase with age with the good news being one gets to feel and look younger, absorb food nutrients better and more energized.

The colon cleansing approach makes the toxins in your body come out through natural functions of your body by qualifying the process. These herbs that help in the cleansing process anchor to the toxins in a magnetic fashion and remove them from your body. They assist in practically unclogging your colon with a domino effect on the whole system as well because residues tend to find their way back to the blood stream. There are several signs that your colon has become clogged. If you have experienced constipation, hives, recurrent allergies and sneezing or mood swings, it may be due to the fact that you have a clogged colon. A colon cleansing kit or process help in releasing waste and poisonous substances that have accumulated over time. By unclogging your colon, your body’s metabolism increases and ultimately increases vigour and vitality. Detox supplements as highlighted earlier, enhance the systemic natural ability to rid toxins. Your kidneys and liver which serve as the ultimate organs of detoxification and should therefore be well nurtured relieve your blood, cells and tissues of toxins all the time, but they can only do so much at a time with their natural defences. The detox supplements enhance the amount of times these organs cleanse the body throughout the day in addition to rejuvenating and cleansing the organs themselves too. Drinking quality water- at least 8 glasses a day improves the detoxification process significantly and should be adhered to for better and faster results. Water hydrates the body and reaches into the cells more effectively thereby catalysing the entire procedure.If drinking water seems so hard, try taking herbal teas and home made fresh juices to complement but be sure to develop the habit of drinking quality water like steam distilled which is one of the best or natural spring water. With both types of detoxification systems, you will find that you will feel healthier and phenomenally more energized as the days roll by in a sustained manner. These kind of products are specially designed to help your body strengthen its natural defences.

The ultimate aim in any health plan is achieving excellent results and any of the methods used will provide a win win situation for you. All you have to do is make a well informed choice on which one you want to use first or alternately in combination. Losing excess body fat becomes extraordinarily more effective with a cleansed system and colon. As the toxins exit the body, calorie dissipation and all chemical reactions in the body system gradually and automatically return to the normal engineered optimal state. Do not also forget eating healthy by consuming more fruits and vegetables and snacking wisely coupled with regular exercise. Excel in good health-the greatest blessing of all.

The Mega Cleanse diet is a well known weight loss detoxification program that involves the intake of a lemon mixture made from lemon juice and maple syrup. This liquid diet was created by Stanley Burroughs, an alternative medicine performer, back in the 1940s. The diet became more popular in the 1990s when it was promoted by Peter Glickman.

Basically, this detoxification program is supposed to aid in weight loss while washing away toxins and waste from the body.

How Is The Mega Cleanse Done? The rule of the Mega Cleanse diet is simple. All you have to do is drink the lemon mixture daily, as a replacement for your meals. No solid food is allowed during the duration of the diet, as the mixture should be enough to satiate your hunger and fill your cravings. The duration of the cleanse can last for one to two weeks, and within that time, it should help ease your cravings for eating, alcohol, tobacco, coffee and even drugs.

The lemon juice in the mixture is known to be a cleansing agent, while the maple syrup provides the body with the necessary energy to go about on a regular basis. Cayenne pepper is added to the mixture as well, and this gives an added taste to the juice. Cayenne pepper is also known for its numerous benefits, which include anti-ulcer properties.

]]>

Does It Really Work? Given that the body is supplied with minimal calories, weight loss can definitely happen. An eight ounce glass of Mega Cleanse lemon mixture contains only about 100 calories. Given that you should drink the mixture around eight to twelve times a day, you’re looking at 800 to 1200 calories daily. For anyone in great health, the diet can certainly work to eliminate toxins from the internal organs including the liver, kidneys, lungs and colon.

However, there is a catch to this diet. Most experts point out that the Mega Cleanse diet lacks essential nutrients. The regular consumption of juice will lead to nutrient deficiency, as it lacks protein, vitamins and minerals essential for the body to function on a daily basis. With that said, the diet can be taken for a short term basis, but as a long term diet, it can pose harm to the body in the long run.

A Little Modification Some followers of the diet practice a “relaxed” version, which involves the consumption of solid food aside from the lemon mixture. The “relaxed” version allows you to eat any type of food, as long as they are organic and natural. These foods include fruits, vegetables, unrefined grains, nuts, healthy oils, seeds and beans. You can eat these detox diet foods for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or substitute one meal with the detox drink. These detox food choices will not impede the detoxification process in any way, since these food choices are also cleansing types of foods that are used in other detoxification diet programs.

If you’re thinking about the Mega Cleanse diet, but if you’re not ready to stop the consumption of solid foods – then maybe you might want to consider a modified version of the diet and still get the results and benefits of the Mega Cleanse detox diet program.

Two (2) Reason Detoxing Helps Weight Loss “Why Body Toxins Effect Hormones”

By: Dr. Dan Pompa

A recent (March 2008) peer reviewed study published in the Journal of American Neurotoxicology and Teratology states that only small to moderate amounts of pesticides in rats cause excessive weight gain by damaging brain structures like the hypothalamus and the pituitary (Lassiter, 2008). Why are body toxins causing weight gain? There are 2 solid reasons:

1) When toxins enter your body they have an affinity for fat cells, due to the fact that they are fat soluble. When the toxins attach to the outer cell membrane, which is made of a lipid bi-layer (two layers of fat), it causes the cells to continually release Leptin. When Leptin is elevated too often, just like Insulin in Type II Diabetes, the receptors burn out and the message is not heard. Remember, Leptin is the hormone that tells the brain to burn fat for energy. Therefore, weight gain that does not respond to exercise or diet is inevitably due to Leptin resistance. Think removing body toxins from the body is important for weight loss? Read on…

2) The toxins also cause the release of chemicals called cytokines that damage Leptin receptors in the brain (hypothalamus). Once the receptors to Leptin have been damaged, Weight Loss Resistance is only the first of many problems (Pompa, 2007).

Your body makes an extremely important hormone called MSH (Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone). MSH is produced in the hypothalamus by Leptin, and it controls nerve, hormone, cytokine functions, skin and mucus membrane defenses, and the production of endorphins and melatonin. If your brain cannot hear Leptin, and is therefore Leptin Resistant,you will eventually become MSH deficient (Shoemaker, 2005).

What does this mean? It means that every immune and hormone response in your body will be altered. Practically speaking, you feel horrible and cannot figure out why. You find yourself on medications and chasing symptoms on a never-ending downward spiral.

The key to 21st Century Health Care is understanding how toxins affect this hormonal cascade, causing inflammation, which leads to so many different diseases like depression, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia¦ just to name a few. The science of Weight Loss Resistance will bring us out of the dark ages of extreme dieting and exercise, not only for those who cannot lose weight, but also for those who are challenged with chronic illness.

Detox Myths and Truths

A common marketing myth on the internet, magazines and TV is Colon Cleansing. Colon cleansing products are designed to stimulate the colon and eliminate colon build-up/waste which may result in temporary weight loss and reduction in colon toxins. However, this does not translate into true fat reduction and a true decrease in your total toxic burden. True detoxification and fat burning (the hormone leptin) occur only by using products that detoxify your body at the cellular level. Read on about a a cleanse (cleansing) detox diet you can also add to your health program.

Detox Tips and Tricks

Increase your quality of dietary fats – good fats- and eliminate – man-made fats – such as hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated fats or trans fatsÂ.

More fat¦How can this help?

1) Increasing good or natural fats bind circulating toxins.

2) Bad man-made fats prevent cells from eliminating toxins; Good fats allow cells to eliminate toxins!

3) Increasing good fats cause the liver to release stored toxins.

By the way, increasing good fats assist with reversing weight loss resistance and fat burning the opposite of what you are told!

From the Desk of Dr. Dan Pompa (Latest Research)

Recent research crossing my desk this month continues to link the consumption of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) to weight gain, fat storage, obesity and appetite control.

The two (2) main conclusions from this work are:

1) Leptin. Consuming even small amounts of HFCS impairs the bodys ability to recognize leptin, a hormone that controls appetite.

2) Toxins. Levels of metabolic waste products spike when HFCS is consumed. This can disrupt the bodys ability to control blood sugar, raising the risk factor of fat storage and weight gain. Again, using a detox cleansing diet plan along with true cellular detoxification products can remove the toxins and rebuild the cell membrane. Detox for Weight Loss and your long term health.

Detox Questions and Answers

Dr. Pompa I know that increasing good fats helps protect and eliminate toxins. However, I’m concerned with gaining weight? (Ann C.)

Remember consuming good fats does not make you fat, it is the inability to burn it (read about the fat hormone leptin above). Your body needs fat to burn fat. Fats are also critical for hormone production, which is a real health concern for most women. I believe good fat to be the # 1 missing nutrients in the Standard American Diet (SAD). Bonus! High fat diets are a natural detox diet that can be added to any true cellular detoxification program. Please check out what I believe to be the best detox diet the cellular healing diet.

Colon Cleanse For Weight Loss? Get rid of Toxins In Human Body!

I need a maid. I often find that I have time to keep a perfectly clean house or get things done. Since I prefer to get things done, housework often takes a backseat. It gets done a little less frequently than would be ideal.

Our bodies also find themselves forced into this place of prioritization when it comes to detoxification and burning fat. This is because our liver, our main organ that’s responsible for detoxification, is also responsible for burning fat. And because so many people take in numerous chemicals each day that require detoxification, our bodies de-prioritize burning fat in favor of detoxification. They do this the same way I’m currently de-prioritizing doing the dishes to write this article.

However, if you want to make weight loss easy you’ll need to get your liver, your prime detoxification and fat burning organ, back on your side. And you can do this by cleaning out the toxins that are currently stored in your liver and throughout your body.

]]>

Your liver is a filter for your blood. It filters out the toxins and chemicals that are common in diet and lifestyle habits. And like the air filter in your car, your liver also becomes congested and clogged with toxins. Some estimates are that over three fourth’s of the space in this four to five pound organ are currently occupied by storing toxins in most people’s bodies. Since I’ve actively cleaned enormous amounts of toxicity from my liver, and far more from the rest of my body, you’re not going to hear me argue with this seemingly large estimate.

With body and liver cleansing techniques you can actually clean out these toxins from your liver to give it the space it needs to burn fat. You can also adopt, as much as possible, a chemical-free lifestyle to dramatically reduce the number of chemicals coming into your body, which will free up some of your liver’s time and energy to burn fat.

A simple way to do this is by choosing most of your menu items from the produce aisle of your organic grocery store. If you need to learn a few new food preparation techniques to make this new style of eating both easy and delicious, by all means do so.

Buying your soaps, shampoos, and detergents at a health food store will also considerably cut back on the number and harshness of chemicals that regularly enter the body through the skin. Finding natural cosmetics is another a step in the right direction – and all of these small steps translate to big improvements for both health and weight loss. In fact, you’ll be amazed at what a big difference they can make.

Who needs colon or bowel cleansers?

Ask yourself a simple question: Have you ever undertook colon cleansing weight loss or any procedure to clean your inside organs? If yes, how long ago? Of course you take care of the outside: You shower, brush your teeth and wash your hair on a regular basis, but do you clean yourself inside? In this modern toxic world, it is becoming a simple fact of life that our colon (the ‘sewer system’ of the body), liver and other organs also require regular cleaning. Just like a car requires an oil change periodically. How do you know when it is time to free your body of accumulated toxins and other waste materials with a colon cleansing weight loss? If you experience one or more of the symptoms below, then it is time to detoxify.

Symptoms

Frequent tiredness and low energy Skin problems Irritability, mood swings Bad breath & foul-smelling stools Flatulence, gas & bloating Impaired digestion Powerful food cravings Occasional constipation Protruding belly (“pooch”) Metallic taste in mouth

How to Detoxify Your Body?
Detoxication can be achieved through several methods, however the easiest, safest and most effective way is through the use herbal supplements such as colon cleansing weight loss. There are so many products on the market and it is hard to find colon cleansing formula that works. Some of them have been specifically formulated to detoxify the whole body, give you a comprehensive, natural detoxification to thoroughly cleanse your body. A safe colon cleansing formula would be normally made of 100% natural ingredients.

Have you ever had a failed diet in your whole life? Maybe you have not yet wondered about the harmful toxins that are stored inside your body which serve as the reasons why your diet fails. It is very vital for you to know that doing a body detoxification diet every now and then can help remove these harmful toxins. Body detoxification diets focus on cleansing the body and removing the harmful substances or toxins that are stored in the body tissues for a very long time.

Even if we try to be as healthy as we possibly can, harmful substances still penetrate our body system and storing up in our organs such as the liver, colon, lungs, skin, and kidneys. Not only this- but people who have been cleansing with lemon juice have noticed the added benefit of weight loss. This makes it even more of an asset with today’s economy, the inexpense, and inconvenience of weight-loss products and cleansing products that are very over-rated, and ineffective.

Living in our toxin-ridden world and consuming the chemically laden foods that fill our grocery stores and restaurants puts a huge strain on our lymph system. The lymph system is what carries nutrients to our cells and removes wastes. Any and all of these are malfunctions have a serious impact on the body’s ability to successfully digest food and eliminate waste. This places a very severe strain on your overall digestive organs and glands and of course prevents assimilation and absorption of nutrients.

]]>

Removing the toxins in the body isn’t that difficult and can be done by anyone who wishes to stay healthy all the time. A detox cleanse plan usually lasts for 3 months with visible results. People will feel even better than before now that the toxins are removed from their body and they will definitely appreciate the benefits given by detoxification. Every day we’re exposed to quite a few varieties of toxins from our common weight loss plan as well as from our environment. The great news is that a detox food regimen can assist you to clear out these toxins for improved health. A detox weight-reduction plan provides many various kinds of benefits for your entire body.

In the modern age we have so many benefits and really nifty gadgets that I myself feel very fortunate to be living now. Of course like many things with the benefits come the drawbacks. Your body cannot produce these vitamins on its own and one of the benefits of juicing is that it is very easy to gain this nutrition by making the drinks with fresh fruits and vegetables. The reason vitamin A is so vital is that it is a very powerful antioxidant, which helps stop free radicals from damaging cells in your body. Considered as a gentle formula, Bowtrol aids in alleviating certain conditions like constipation and bloating plus promotes healthy bowel movements and at the same time cleansing the digestive tract from accumulated waste and toxins.

This colon cleanser contains beneficial ingredients that help in achieving its purpose. These ingredients are as follows: Slippery Elm, Aloe Vera, White Oak, Golden Seal, Psyllium fiber, Senna and the healthy bacteria Lactobacillus Acidophilus.
