January is definitely the month of discipline often backed by the “new year, new me” mantra. 

With a focus on improving what goes into your body, eliminating toxins, and a little CBD to keep the body in balance, you’ll ring in the new year on a healthier, happier note! 

What is a Detox?

While the body detoxes naturally by itself—via the circulation, liver, and kidneys—detox supporters purport that specific detox programs to eliminate toxins can improve the functioning and health of particular organs and systems.

Top 12 detox tips. 

Water is your friend

1

We hear it all the time…drink more water! Why? Water is implicated in every metabolic process in the body, and adequate water intake also contributes to maintaining a normal body salt balance.

Avoid alcohol

2

The time it takes to detox from alcohol depends on a few factors, including how much you drink, how long you’ve been drinking, and whether you’ve gone through detox before. 

Limit your caffeine intake

3

Caffeine may be dangerous if taken for an extended period or at dosages greater than 400 mg per day (roughly 4 cups of coffee.) Caffeine has been linked to insomnia, anxiousness, restlessness, nausea, elevated heart rate, and other negative side effects.

Avoid sugar (and low-calorie artificial sweeteners)

4

Reset your sweet taste buds by consuming less sugar of all types. Eliminate sugary beverages, snacks, and sweets, and you may be astonished at how satisfying fruit is for your sweet tooth!

Avoid foods that have been processed or prepared

5

Limiting processed foods is the quickest and most straightforward approach to cut back on unnecessary (and sometimes hidden) sugars, fats, and calories.

Eat more fiber

6

Fiber stimulates the digestive tract; acting as nature’s Roto-Rooter.  However, remember to stick to the fiber found in nature—fruits, vegetables, and whole grains — and avoid processed foods that claim to offer 50% or more of your daily fiber requirements in one serving.

Work up a sweat

7

As a general goal, strive to do at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day. Reducing sitting time is crucial, too.

Make sure that you get enough Zzzz’

8

Each night, aim for seven to nine hours of sleep. Adequate sleep is necessary for the support and maintenance of a healthy brain.

Consider a lung detox

9

The best thing that you can do to detox your lungs is to stop smoking or reduce your exposure to air pollution. It may also be beneficial to undergo steam therapy or steam inhalation, which involves inhaling water vapor. 

Go veggie

10

A week-long detox fuelled by plenty of fruits, veggies, and plant-based proteins like lentils, tofu, and chickpeas may give energy and a superfluity of critical nutrients that boost the immune system and reduce inflammation.

Relook at your reaction to stress

11

Begin by reminding yourself to “stop and think” and take a deep breath before responding.

CBD as a  cleanser

12

CBD can be included in various aspects of your detox in multiple ways. Create healthy treats with added CBD, or experiment with a CBD tincture.
