I have introduced to you all before how to clear visceral garbage? Today I will add a few more points on body detoxification methods.
1. Skin detoxification through sweating during aerobic exercise
When toxins from other organs have been expelled but you still feel there are a lot of toxins in your body, you can consider detoxifying through the skin, which is the largest organ of the human body, and the best way is to sweat more and exercise more.
Experts point out that the simplest and most effective detoxifying exercise is walking fast. When walking, speed up and swing and stretch your arms as much as possible, which can stimulate lymph, lower cholesterol and hypertension. In addition, there are many other exercises that can accelerate human metabolism and help the skin detoxify, such as yoga, swimming, Tai Chi, and Wu Qin Xi, but the key is that exercise must make you sweat. It is recommended to do at least one aerobic exercise that makes your body sweat every week to expel toxins that other organs cannot resolve.
2. Clear "intestinal toxins" by regular bowel movements and eating more fruits and vegetables
Since the biggest source of toxins in the body comes from food, many chemically contaminated foods absorb toxins into the body through the intestines, so the toxins in the intestines need to be cleared first.
Experts suggest that the key to reducing intestinal toxins is to develop a habit of regular daily bowel movements, which can shorten the time metabolic waste stays in the intestines, reduce toxin absorption, and it is also important to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Fresh vegetables and vegetable juice contain abundant fiber, which can promote intestinal peristalsis and expel metabolic products in the body, especially to eat more fiber-rich fruits and vegetables, which can help with bowel movements.
3. Clear "lung toxins" by voluntary coughing and deep breathing
A person's daily breathing can send thousands of liters of air into the lungs, and bacteria, viruses, dust, and other harmful substances floating in the air also enter the lungs.
The best way to reduce lung toxins is to breathe more fresh air and avoid inhaling polluted air. If someone around you is smoking, you must avoid inhaling "secondhand smoke" and try not to stay for a long time in places full of dust. When encountering sandy weather, don't forget to wear a mask when going out.
In addition, you can practice deep breathing in places with fresh air or after the rain: relax your stomach, gently touch it with your fingertips; then inhale deeply and steadily through your nose, at this time your fingertips can feel your stomach swelling, until your entire stomach is filled with air; let the air pause in your stomach for four seconds, then exhale slowly through your mouth. Voluntarily coughing a few times can also play a role in cleaning the lungs.
4. Clear "kidney toxins" by drinking plenty of water and having a light diet
The kidneys are the main force of the urinary system and also the most important detoxifying organ in the body. They can filter out toxins from the blood and waste products produced by protein breakdown, and expel them from the body through urine.
Experts suggest that to reduce toxins in the kidneys, scientific and sufficient water intake is necessary. Water can dilute the concentration of toxins and promote kidney metabolism. The circulation of water in the body will expel more toxins outside the body. Therefore, it is suggested to drink two liters of water every day. By flushing the toxins in the body with water, the burden on the kidneys is reduced, which is the simplest method of detoxification. A light diet should be maintained in daily life to avoid overburdening the kidneys. Additionally, you should not frequently hold back urination because there are many toxins in the urine, if not expelled in time, they may be reabsorbed into the blood, endangering health.
