The Best Cleanse for Adrenal, Thyroid, Immune & Digestive Health
Do you experience random incidences of fatigue and brain fog? Do you get sick more often than you like or care to admit? There are thousands of people living their daily lives with diminished feelings of well-being in their physical experience. Thyroid dysfunction, food allergies, and weakened immune function are symptoms of a high toxic load on the body. Trying a detox will help your body get on track to proper biological and metabolic function. Apart from visiting the thyroid pharmacist, here is a brief guide on what you need to know to create a strategy to increase your levels of well-being and health.
The Negative Effect of Inflammation
A poor diet is one of the primary sources of health disorders and disease in the body. Eating bad foods cause inflammation of the GI tract, disturbing the natural balance of good and bad micro bacteria in the gut. These micro bacteria, or gut biomes, are tasked with assimilating the nutrition from the food we eat. When the internal environment is inflamed, biome assimilation is impaired. The inflammation created in our gut can spread to other areas of the central nervous system and circulatory system. Inflammation reduces oxygen flow to the brain, clouding thought processes and potentially causing headaches and migraines. Inflammation lowers metabolic function and decreases the immune response, exposing you to infection and disease.
Change Your Diet
You can beat the effects of inflammation and increase the performance of your thyroid, immune system, as well as improve the health of your GI tract by changing your diet. Avoid acidic foods in your diet and remove all sources of dairy, trans saturated fats, and processed foods. Eliminate any sources of refined carbohydrates from your diet. Get rid of the sugar, the flour, and the candy. Stop drinking soda and leave the alcohol alone for a few weeks.
Your diet should be as nutritious as possible. Wherever you can, look for organic sources of fruits and vegetables. For the best detox plan, try a plant based diet. Meat from the commercial food manufacturers is subject to horrible farming practices. Avoid factory farmed meat that contains high levels of hormones and antibiotics. Choose farm raised, grass-fed, organic beef and chicken for your animal protein sources. However, if you must include meat, use quality sources of animal proteins such as eggs, fatty fish cutlets from salmon and mackerel, as well as organ meats such as liver and kidneys.
It’s best to consume plant-based diets raw, so eat lots of salads and blend your plant-based smoothies. Juicing your vegetables is also a good idea. Juicing extracts all the essential vitamins and minerals from vegetables that you may not usually eat. Eat as many dark green leafy vegetables as you can. Kale, spinach, cabbage, Brussel sprouts, and bok choy are all examples of cruciferous vegetables that can be eaten raw in your diet and enhance thyroid function.
Get Some Exercise
Make it a regular practice to get in some exercise. Yoga is a popular way to keep fit, flexible and healthy. Yoga is a form of moving meditation that helps the practitioner connect the body and the mind through exercise. Yoga enthusiasts practice Bikram yoga in a temperature-controlled room heated to 110 degrees. The heat amplifies the intensity of the yoga workout and increases the effct of detoxifying the body. Yoga also focuses on breathing techniques that increase the flow and absorption of oxygen by the body. High levels of oxygen help to eliminate excess free radicals from the body that are responsible for cell oxidation and cell death. Two to three sessions a week will help you sweat out the toxins.
The Final Thought
The effects of detoxifying the body from a toxic diet and lifestyle will go a long way in helping to cure health disorders of the thyroid, GI tract, immune system and adrenal system. However, make sure that you consult with your medical professional on any changes you make to your diet before you execute your plan.
