Over the last 50 years our environment has become increasingly more polluted. Tens of thousands of toxic chemicals have been introduced to our environment. Add to this, a typical diet that includes sugar, alcohol, caffeine, processed foods, hydrogenated fats, hormones from meat and poultry, mercury from fish, prescription and non-prescription drugs. This can create a heavy build up of toxic substances in our body, particularly the liver. The results of this can include feeling tired, sluggish, foggy, constipated, experiencing skin eruptions and having trouble sleeping. Which is why I recommend doing a liver cleanse twice a year; in the spring and in the fall.
A typical cleanse will last for 3 weeks. You will eliminate certain foods from your diet such as the ones mentioned above and include different types of fresh organic fruits and vegetables, grains, legumes, beans, lean poultry and fish, herbal teas and water. You may also want to include dietary supplements that help to detoxify and strengthen the liver. We have an excellent Spring Detoxifying Cleanse that we offer at Vitalia Natural Medicine.
