After a long festive season, it’s time for new beginnings. Feelings of tiredness, indigestion and possible challenges of getting to sleep and wake up in the morning are common. Feels like you lost your zest for life. Don’t worry! The enormous festive engagement saw our bodies take in a lot of toxins through our food, the environment and the air we breathe. The many toxins overload our bodies resulting in fatigue, indigestion, headaches and brain fog. It is time to clean and rejuvenate our body

The good news is that our body has a built-in detoxification mechanism that works efficiently to keep our bodies going. We only need to intervene and ensure we incorporate healthy foods in our diet to achieve greater healing and cleansing. This will help improve the overall functioning of the vital detoxifying organs. Detoxing these essential organs will also help slow ageing and improve the quality of life.

The Vital Organs for Detoxification

• Liver

The liver is the largest detoxifier organ in the body. The liver synthesis and secret bile juice which neutralize the toxins by breaking them down and eliminating the useless waste materials. The liver ensures that fat-soluble toxins are not stored in the body’s fatty tissues.

Therefore, you need to always remember why it is important to take care of your liver. Ensure you eat healthy foods, drink plenty of water daily and include fresh fruit and vegetables to keep your liver healthy.

• Kidney

The Kidney plays a significant role in detoxification. It filters toxins in the blood, removes byproducts of digestion, and eliminates them in the urine. The Kidney further helps promote weight loss, removing stones and clearing infections.

You, therefore, have a task to ensure the Kidney is healthy and runs efficiently to help you fight off toxins. Consider drinking plenty of water daily, avoid alcohol and reduce meat and dairy consumption.

• Colon

What you eat defines you, and your health is often a reflection of your gut health. The colon absorbs the water and other nutrients from the ingested food and excretes the toxins and waste materials through fecal matter. There is a regular bowel movement and detoxification of the colon.

To achieve a healthy colon, consider taking a few precautions. To promote detoxification, consider eating plenty of fruits and vegetables, avoiding overeating, and taking plenty of probiotics.

The liver, Kidney and colon play a significant role in detoxifying. They are vital organs that help eliminate toxic substances from the body.
