Cleaning the outside of the body is something that most people will do on a regular basis.
When it comes to cleaning our internal body, it’s not something everyone thinks or does.
We live in a toxic world and toxins are everywhere. Chemicals are processed into our food, used in cleaning products, perfumes, and cosmetics, and synthetic hormones from plastics leach into our environment.
Added to this are unhealthy lifestyles, where too much saturated fat, sugar, salt, and white flour products are consumed daily. Fatty liver disease is becoming more common.
As a result, toxins build up in our bodies, placing an additional burden on our organs and making it difficult for cleansing organs like the liver and colon to do their job.
So it’s no wonder people complain of digestive problems, constipation, frequent headaches, fatigue, bad breath, and skin disorders.
All of these are evidence that the body is trying to get rid of the toxins it is loaded with.
So the benefits of an internal cleanse are great, especially when using herbs.
Herbs are often used in a cleanse as they work effectively to cleanse the organs and help them function more efficiently. Herbs like dandelion and burdock work to cleanse the liver and colon. Herbs like uva ursi cleanse the kidneys, another important organ of elimination.
benefits of cleaning
The benefits of cleansing are significant, especially if this is the first time a person has gotten clean.
Weight loss is a happily reported effect. When the organs of elimination such as the liver and colon are cleansed, they are able to function better, resulting in a faster metabolism.
People doing an herbal cleanse also have to keep a closer eye on their diet, eliminating the foods that made them heavy in the first place. When foods like sugar, saturated fat, and white flour products are eliminated, weight is lost faster. Sometimes people who do a cleanse report losing 5 to 10 pounds, depending on the individual.
So weight loss is a major benefit. But perhaps even more important is the additional energy that a clean provides. When your body is working more efficiently, at a higher level, you’ll feel more energized and able to do things you didn’t feel like doing before the cleanse.
Along with energy comes more stamina. Whether it’s walking, dancing, cleaning, or spending the day, a person who has cleaned up can last longer.
Improved digestion is another benefit of the cleanse that is tied to increased energy. When the body is able to digest food more effectively, it results in better use of those nutrients and more energy.
Improved digestion also means that people can sleep better, with deeper, deeper sleep. This means they will wake up feeling refreshed, with more energy.
Clear skin is another great benefit of a cleanse. Rashes, eczema, acne, psoriasis, and other skin disorders are more likely to clear up after a cleanse. The skin is the largest organ of elimination next to the liver and the colon. When the liver and colon are working efficiently, toxins do not need to exit through the skin.
Finally, some people report increased awareness of the enhancement of the senses. They can hear better, taste better, and are more aware of their surroundings.
