A few more thoughts regarding cleansing as we head into the New Year!

You’ve heard about the toxins and chemicals found in your food, but there are many other toxins in your daily life that you might not be aware of … like chlorine from your shower water… or acetone from your nail polish… formaldehyde from your new clothes… and you’re even affected by cleaning products with bleach and other harsh additives.

But don’t worry! There are a handful of simple ways to start combating these toxins!

Try airing out your new clothes before you wear them and avoid the dry cleaners, as these are sources of questionable preservatives and treatments. Or get a filter for your showerhead (http://www.revitalive.com/store)The chlorine in your water becomes most hazardous when it becomes steam in your shower. Another quick fix is to change your cleaning products to more environmentally (and subsequently health) friendly cleansers.

WATER also plays an important role in the cleansing process on a day-to-day basis. We need to keep things fluid and moving! The general recommended amount of water is half your body weight in ounces every day.

Consider your body in terms of a “soup” or a “stew”. When we’re properly hydrated our body functions as a soup… vitamins and minerals are going where they need to go, nutrients are moving freely. But without enough water… our cells turn into more of a stew…slow moving, and thick, with the potential to clog passages, etc.

This imagery always gets through to me!

Another important cleansing key is EXERCISE! Movement allows all the toxins to be shaken up in your body, and once they’re dislodged, you can let your healthy and hydrated body flush them out. Colon hydrotherapy is a wonderful way to start flushing out toxins and hydrating the body as well.

Remember, these are GREAT starts! But there’s no substitute for the benefits the safe and structured lifestyle change programs that Revitalive offers.
