Detoxing and Cleansing - Why Should We Do It?

You may have heard a lot about detoxing/cleansing as superfoods grow - here's why it's important for us

Detoxification happens when our body eliminates anything that causes it to be toxic. Our bodies can do this in a variety of ways - urination, breathing & sweating.

Why Detox?

Our bodies are constantly working to remove toxic byproducts of the foods we eat, the air we breathe and so on. 

Detoxing and cleansing supports our immune system. If there is a poor removal of waste products from the body, we are not providing the best environment for our wellness to thrive. Is your daily routine prepping your immune system for success?

Whilst supermarkets are flooded with processed foods & refined sugars, it becomes increasingly important to supplement our diets with nourishing and nutrient rich foods. We are exposed to thousands of toxic chemicals daily ranging from pesticides in foods, cosmetics, cleaning products and pollution. 

 

Signs You May Need to Detox/ Cleanse

🚩 Mood Swings

🚩 Weak Immune System

🚩 Low Energy

🚩 Poor Memory

🚩 Bad Breath 

🚩 Skin Problems

🚩 Sleeping Troubles 

🚩 Headaches/Migranes

🚩 Sexual Dysfunction

 

Did You Know?

Consuming juices and smoothies is an effective way to assist the body on a detox or cleanse. It allows us to absorb nutrients efficiently, while giving the digestive tract a much needed rest. (If you struggle with acid reflux, IBS or other digestive/bowel related issues this one's for you!) It's a nice way to help remove unwanted products from the foods we eat - great for healing. 

Both Seamoss gel and Adaptogen herbs are great ways to give your smoothies and juices that extra boost of nutrients you need to get through your day, as well as providing a natural solution to remove unwanted products from our body. Here are some cupboard essentials to make sure you're all set for blending your smoothies, juices or smoothie bowls!

🥜 Nuts and Seeds (Flax, Chia, Walnuts)

🍯 Agave Syrup or Honey
🌱 Seamoss
🍃 Adaptogen Herbs

 

Staying Hydrated & Getting Your Minerals

Staying hydrated is essential when it comes to detoxing - water helps to carry nutrients to our cells, as well as helping us to remove waste products from the body (sweating, urination, breathing).

Minerals help our organs to function optimally.  If we are lacking in minerals, it is likely to hinder the detoxification process, since our organs function poorly when we lack our essential nutrients. Poor organ function is likely to lead to the poor removal of wastes from the body. Consuming Seamoss is a great way to ensure you receive your daily essential minerals - containing 92 out of 102 minerals the body requires to function at its best. 

Remember, a strong immune system, depends on a clean and detoxed body ✨
