Food goes through many processes from field to fork. They are exposed to a toxin (harmful substance) that starts with the use of pesticides in the field and extends to the meeting with preservatives for purification and long-term storage. It can be revealed by our body's activities such as energy production, as well as it is possible for us to get these harmful substances from the air and water. If these toxins are not removed from the body, they increase risks such as cancer, heart diseases and premature aging. In addition, in people who do not consume 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day, do not drink enough water, consume heavy alcohol and caffeine, work extremely stressful, have frequent travels, are not physically active, toxins can cause problems such as not waking up in the morning, edema, gas, bloating, weakness and muscle pain, headache. It can also cause complaints such as pain, forgetfulness and difficulty concentrating. We need to purify our body in order to get rid of the negative effects of spring on the immune system, especially on the immune system of autumn.
The main organ that removes toxins from our body is the liver. These substances are excreted from the kidneys through urine, from the skin with sweat, and from the intestines through feces. Considering caffeine (tea and coffee consumption), alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, exhaust fumes, excessive protein and saturated fat consumption, which complicates the work of the liver, we realize that we need a detox. The basic rule in detox is natural nutrition, that is, getting enough vitamins and minerals from fruits and vegetables. For this, in addition to including these foods in the main meals, fruit-vegetable juices and herbal teas can be included in the snacks. Some other foods that should be counted in the content of detox programs are whole grain breads, legumes, fish, prebiotic yogurt and oil seeds (walnuts, hazelnuts). During this period, caffeine, alcohol and ready-made foods should be avoided and this program should be applied between 3-7 days. Daily 35-40 minutes of activities increase the effectiveness of the detox.
Detox programs should definitely be done with an expert. Especially those with organ failure (heart, liver, kidney failure), pregnant and lactating people, those with high blood pressure, diabetics and children should definitely not participate in detox programs without expert guidance.
