As we feel the beginnings of Spring's warm embrace, we are reminded that it is the perfect time for rebirth, renewal and cleansing.
This week we're discussing DETOX & DRAINAGE PATHWAYS!
Detox and drainage pathways are closely related, but the key takeaway of this newsletter... is the IMPORTANCE of addressing drainage before attempting any type of detox or cleanse.
What are the human body's drainage pathways?
- The body has several main drainage pathways that work together to remove waste and toxins. These include the colon, liver, bile ducts, kidneys, lymphatic system, glymphatic system (brain's lymphatic system), skin, urine and respiratory system. These pathways must be open and functioning properly in order for any detox or cleanse to be effective.
Why is it SO important that they're open before starting a detox or cleanser?
- If one's drainage pathways are blocked or stagnant, toxins will not be able to be efficiently eliminated from the body. This can lead to the toxins recirculating and causing more harm. Symptoms such as constipation, swelling, joint pain, low energy, skin issues, etc., can all indicate blocked drainage pathways.
How do I know if my drainage pathways are open or not?
- The good news is, knowing if drainage pathways are open, is fairly simple. We've made it even more simply by creating this simply checklist:
- Bowel Movements 2-3x /day - YES or NO?
- Urination 5-8x /day - YES or NO?
- Healthy, Clear, Glowing Skin - YES or NO?
- Full-Body Sweating Daily YES or NO?
- Clear-Headedness/No Brain Fog - YES or NO?
What can I do at home to start opening up my drainage pathways?
- Methods to open drainage pathways include:
- Increasing fiber intake
- Using castor oil packs to support liver and kidney function
- Drinking half one's body weight in oz (e.g 180lbs = 90oz of water /day)
- Eating antioxidant rich foods and cruciferous veggies
- Jumping on a rebounding trampoline
- Dry brushing
KEY TAKEAWAY: Once the drainage pathways are flowing properly, the body will be better equipped to effectively eliminate toxins during a detox. Trying to detox without first addressing drainage can lead to unpleasant side effects and an ineffective process.
