India It is a festive country and any festival here is incomplete without sweets. When it comes to the country’s biggest festival, Diwali, we eat a lot of sweets and dishes despite saying no.
Eating excessive amounts of sweets and dishes can spoil digestion. This can sometimes cause problems like indigestion, stomach ache and nausea. In fact, in these one or two days, so much flour, sugar and fat gets accumulated in our body that it reacts like a toxin in the body. Eating too much sweet and salty food causes blood sugar level and BP to spike. Therefore the body starts trying to expel these toxins. As a result, vomiting and stomach upset may occur.
If we want, we can help the body in this detox process by making some changes in our lifestyle and eating habits. With this we can avoid any unpleasant situation.
so today ‘medical certificate‘I will talk about the detox process. You will also learn that-
- What is detoxification?
- What changes need to be made in food and drinks?
- What precautions are to be taken in detoxification?
what is detoxification
Detoxification is a very popular word at present. During the festive season, many experts will be found talking about it in social media reels and short videos. Its simple meaning is to remove toxins from the body.
Everything in the body is a toxin, which is causing harm to the body. These toxins can be produced due to some disease or enter our body through food and drinks. The body tries its best to expel them. This is called detoxification. We can help our body in this work.
Detoxification is very different from what we understand
Seeing the reels on social media, people have understood that a special kind of diet is taken for detoxification and liquid intake is increased. Whereas its true meaning is that in this process the inner organs are given rest. Minimal meals are eaten and light meals are eaten. This is an attempt to bring back balance in the functioning of the body.
Right lifestyle is necessary for detoxification
In this process, not only changes have to be made in eating and drinking habits, but changes have to be made in the entire lifestyle. In this, from morning exercise to getting quality sleep at night, every small thing has to be taken care of and improved. Let us see in graphics, 10 important tips for detoxification.
Let us understand some of the points given in the graphics in detail:
drink as much water as possible
The world’s best detoxifying agent is water. It helps in repairing the damage caused by toxins in our body. During this repair, the body needs a lot of energy, while during this time we are eating less food. In such a situation, water helps in breaking down the things we have eaten earlier into energy.
Apart from this, water is also needed to remove the toxins present in the body in the form of waste. These come out with urine or stool. Therefore, during this period it is advised to drink 2 glasses more water than the daily requirement.
exercise is important
Extra energy and fat get accumulated in our body due to the dishes and sweets eaten during Diwali. Exercise is an easy way to burn these extra calories. If you are facing problem in exercising then you can go on a long walk. During this period, many toxins also come out through sweat.
Superdetox will provide 1 hour more quality sleep
Most repair in our body happens during sleep. Sleep is our body’s superdetox function. During this time, most of the organs repair the damage caused during the day. Now, since toxins have caused more damage to our body during the festival season, it needs more time for repair. This is why one hour more sleep is recommended during detoxification.
Increase the amount of probiotics in food
Probiotics help in the absorption and digestion of nutrients. They also promote healthy bacterial growth in our stomach and improve the digestive system. We know that our digestive system suffers the most during festivals. Therefore, it is very important to consume adequate amounts of probiotic food. These also strengthen the immune system.
Eat foods rich in antioxidants
Consuming too much fried food, junk food, alcohol and tobacco during festivals increases the number of free radicals in the body. These free radicals cause oxidative stress. As a result, healthy cells of our body start getting damaged.
Antioxidants are most effective to avoid this. Green leafy vegetables, tomatoes and all citrus fruits are very helpful in this.
eat citrus fruits
Fruits and vegetables rich in Vitamin C help a lot in removing toxins from the body. The special thing is that Vitamin C itself is a powerful antioxidant. Apart from this, it also strengthens the weakened immunity. For this we can eat sour fruits or make their juice and drink it.
The easiest and cheapest solution is lemon water. If you drink the juice of two lemons with water throughout the day, the process of detoxification will become much easier.
Detox your mind too
Eating too many sweets and dishes causes hormonal imbalance. Its biggest impact is on the mind. Due to this, problems of irritability and temper loss start occurring. Meditation can help in creating balance in this. This is called mental detox.
Things kept in the kitchen are helpful in body detox.
There is no need to worry too much about detoxification. Many things kept in our kitchen can help in this. Lemon, garlic and ginger kept in the kitchen are also very effective in the detox process. Let us see in the graphic which things kept in the kitchen help us in detox.
