Over time the human body takes in toxins from many different sources. The very air we breathe as well as the food and drink we consume contain bacteria and germs. These bacteria and germs, if left unchecked, can add up to big health problems in the long run. The best way to take care of these harmful chemicals stored in the body is through detoxification, and there are a variety of ways to do that, from natural to adding cleaning chemicals.
Step 1
Start by fasting. Fasting is one of the simplest methods for expelling built-up toxins in the body. Not so much because it removes them but, more so, because it doesn't add new ones. To help with your fast and actually eliminate some of the chemicals, drink lots of fluids. You can do either a short or long-term fast. Short terms could be as little as a day or two. Long-term could be weeks. It's important to note that organs generally start processing internal contaminant four days out from the start of a fast.
Step 2
Drink water with lemon. Because you need to stay hydrated, water is a good resource. Water will help the body move chemicals through the kidneys, purifying your system. Adding a slice of lemon to the water will add to the beneficial effects of hydration. Lemon helps to kills germs and bacteria on the organs and in the intestinal tract.
Step 3
Drink juice. Juice is not just a form of hydration. It also provides the body with some much-needed nutrients. Another positive aspect of juice is that it contains enzymes that stimulate the body's immune system, kicking it into overdrive and destroying even more of the harmful chemicals your body may hold.
Step 4
Eat high-fiber foods. High-fiber foods act as a sort of broom in your intestine, moving along and clearing out destructive particles as it goes. The other way high-fiber helps to eliminate toxins is by keeping you regular. The less constipated you are, the more easy it is for your body to flush out unwanted chemicals.
