Over the years the body can be exposed to many different chemicals, hormones, toxins and poisons. The body tries to rid itself of these agents however a lot of the time it isn’t fully successful and there are residual pollutants that accumulate. They get stored in various areas such as organs, tissues, and cells. You need to rid your body of these things and this is why it’s important to do a cleanse.
There are many types of cleanses and I’d always recommend talking to a health care professional first to figure out the best cleanse suited for you. That being said, typically people start with a liver cleanse for and intestinal cleanse first. They are designed to improve digestion and prevent the body from absorbing toxic substances. Typically cleanses can range from a few days to a few weeks. Whatever the cleanse you end up doing, do it the whole way through. If you end up cheating on it get right back to it and make sure it doesn’t happen again. Too many times I’ve seen people mess up and then abandon the whole thing or only partially do the cleanse. This is why many people state the cleanse didn’t work. On closer inspection, it is usually that the person abandoned it or lackadaisically followed it. So whatever cleanse you do, follow it strictly and completely.
As a warning preplan your schedule according to the cleanse. If you are doing a cleanse that might require that you are close to a toilet, then plan for it. If the cleanse requires a certain diet. Shop beforehand and make whatever food you are planning on consuming earlier in the week. This will set you up for a successful cleanse. Cleanses are great and if you do one you will most likely see some great benefits. My office offers a few types of cleanses.
