Happy New Year from BFIT!!!- 5 Ways to Detox

Happy New Year!!! Hey guys I know it has been awhile since I last posted. Well I am back and ready to take on the new year with a positive outlook. The first of the year is always an ideal time to set up your new goals and priorities. Many of you may be searching for a way to make a healthy lifestyle change. I believe a detox is a great way to start the year off right and rid your body of toxins. It doesn’t have to be anything complicated. However, you should try to detox a minimum of 3 days or more.

Here are 5 quick ways you can cleanse your body and get started on a new healthy you for 2013.

1. Eat clean, whole and fresh  foods. Eat organic as much as possible. Limit your intake of sugars, refined carbs, processed and packaged foods. Also, try cutting out gluten, dairy, caffeine and alcohol.

2. Increase your water intake. Aim to drink 6-8 glasses of water a day. Try adding a dash of lemon juice to assist with the removal of toxins.

3. Avoid meat and increase your consumption of fruits and vegetables. While detoxing, it is ideal to eat vegetables either raw or steamed.  Try eating a rainbow of foods to ensure you getting a variety of vitamins.

4. Get active. Exercise is key to detoxing. When you sweat it helps the body eliminate toxins.

5. Relax and rest. Try stretching or pick up a yoga class. You may also want to try getting a relaxing massage to help with the detoxing process.

After a period of detoxing, you are guaranteed to feel healthier and have more energy. You are doing something great for yourself. Take control and get started on your detox today.

Happy detoxing,

B.
