How a Detox Can Speed Up Your Weight Loss Goals

 

What is a detox?

 

Detox, also known as detoxification, has become a well-known way to lose weight and enhance physical and mental wellbeing. People report feeling more focused and energetic during and after a detox diet due to getting vitamins and minerals, which may have been lacking before.

 

What is a detox diet?

 

A detox diet is one that limits processed, high-fat and sugary goods, replacing them with whole foods like fruit and vegetables. The food items and liquids clean your blood, eliminating toxic substances from your body. Detoxing diet has been around for a long time and reports back to 2000 B.C.E. 

 

Numerous waste products will leave the body when you start a detox diet. These include urea, uric acid, excess sebum, dead skin cells, and industrial toxins. Your body will send signals when it needs a detox, such as fatigue, poor sleep quality, infrequent bowel movements, and skin issues.

 

Below we have listed a selection of popular ways in which you can do a full body detox.

 

Fruit and Vegetables 

 

A thorough source of vitamins comes from fruit and vegetables with an excellent source of dietary fibre, helping maintain a healthy gut preventing constipation and other digestive problems.

 

Fruit and vegetables which are low in calories are highly nutritious. These are filled with minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants. Fruit and vegetables are also high in fibre which increases the feeling of fullness and helps reduce food intake, resulting in weight loss.

 

Apples, berries, grapes, kiwi, melons, and organs are low-calorie fruits ideal for your fruit detox.

Vegetables that you can include in your detox to help lose weight quickly are spinach and other leafy greens, mushrooms, cauliflower, pumpkin carrots, and asparagus. Eat these vegetables raw or steamed to get the most nutrition out of them.

 

 

A Liquid Detox

 

A liquid detox, also known as a juice cleanse, is a diet that only involves consuming juices from fruits and vegetables, eliminating solid foods from your diet. You can also include protein shakes, green tea, and vegetable soups. When on a liquid detox diet, some people consume a lemon and water drink in the morning to help aid digestion. Studies have shown some promise to this. 

The low calories in a liquid detox help assist in speeding up weight loss while also getting the right vitamins into your diet through liquid only.

 

Organic produce 

 

Organic produce contains fewer pesticides. A pesticide is a substance used to destroy insects and organisms, which can be harmful to cultivated plants or animals.

Organic produce is considered a far more sustainable alternative due to the lack of chemical fertilizers and synthetic additives.

 

Although there is no evidence of getting more nutrients from organic produce than regular produce, it is still a healthy way to prevent the consumption of harmful antibiotics and other additives. 

 

Detox and Cleanse Supplements 

 

Multiple brands have come to the market with their detox and cleanse supplements to eliminate toxins from your body acquired from lifestyle or food. Their goal is to help in metabolic improvement, weight management, and mind rejuvenation.

These supplements come in a capsule form that enables detoxification and debloating, and they are formulated with antioxidants, vitamins, plant-based elements, and natural herbs.

 

A wide selection of brands has also introduced 3-5 day-long detox packages that restrict you from eating anything other than what is provided in the package. These packages come with meal replacement foods, juices, protein snacks, detoxing tea, etc. 

 

 

Cleansing your body naturally

 

• Eat a calorie-controlled diet; cutting calories is your best approach when looking to lose weight.
• Choosing the best quality foods for weight loss, lean proteins, and fibre-rich grains can help support weight loss.
• Get plenty of exercise to increase calorie burn, maintaining lean mass, and promote better health.
• Controlling stress and getting plenty of sleep.
• Drinking water to help cleanse and flush out the body.
• Decreasing the consumption of alcohol. You will be surprised by the number of calories in alcohol, and the effects alcohol has on your body.
• Stopping smoking.
• Decrease your intake of added sugared foods.

 

Is a detox right for me?

 

Detoxing is incredibly beneficial for many people. Life demands can be challenges at times, and it is not always easy to fulfil a healthy drinking and eating pattern. If you are not looking after your body’s needs, you will eventually be left feeling stressed, tired, and highly likely overweight. Before starting a detox plan, you should check in with your doctor or medical practitioner if you have any serious underlying medical conditions.
