It seems as though the media has been buzzing quite loudly concerning these internal cleanses. The claims that are made for these cleanses are pretty astounding. Some people claim that rapid weight loss, better skin and even better bowl health are all associated with doing a rapid detox diet. These claims might seem ridiculous but there has been some people with interesting results that they achieved through these rapid detox cleanses. The real ridiculous side show of the rapid detoxing world is actually what some people are charging for their “methods” . The concept behind detoxing is simple and easy to understand and you don’t have to buy a book to figure it out.
Be careful to check with your doctor before starting any type of rapid detox cleanses.
The key behind rapid detox dieting is actually not eating or fasting as the Guru’s like to call it. The basic principle is that your body has been so flooded with toxins that only a severe brake will be able to provide enough relief to let your body flush out these bad little chemicals. The gastronomical system of your body uses a lot of the energy that you have during the day processing food, so the principle is that by giving your gastronomical system a brake you will be able to have more energy to repair. This is thought to be why animals that are sick don’t eat.
The first free rapid detox cleanse is a Juice Fast. Juice fasting is popular because you don’t give up the whole of your caloric intake. Remember that the idea is to cleanse your body so you can live healthier so don’t buy juices filled with sugar and expect to get the benefits. A lot of people will find their juice fast completely miserable, and that’s because they are doing it wrong. If you only drink fruit juices you are cutting yourself out of not only the larger percentage of variety that are accompanied juice fasts but also on some of the best nutritional value you can get. Make sure that you make vegetable juices with dark green leafy vegetables.
Water
Doing a water fast is extreme. Your body does a lot of funny things when it can’t get any food. This fast is not for everyone! The premise is actually as its name denotes drink only water for a number of days. Your body has absolutely no physical nourishment during these days. You will have to drink an exurbanite amount of water during these days but will also have to be careful not to drink so much that you flush out your essential salts out of your body and water overdose! These types of fasts should be done under careful supervision.
