Benefits Of Detoxing Using Natural Remedies

detox teaDetoxification, also called detoxification, involves removing toxic substances from the body to keep it healthy. The human body can detoxify itself naturally by interacting with different organs, thus neutralizing toxins. However, you don’t get enough detoxification with the food you eat alone, so that’s when natural food supplements come in.

In this post, you’ll learn the benefits of detoxing using natural remedies, like plants, herbs, spices, fruits, and vegetables, and natural food supplements.

Maintain Healthy Liver Functions

One of the natural remedies used in detoxing is milk thistle or holy thistle. It is a plant with a thin, long stem, and spiny leaves with streaks of white lines, and is native to the Mediterranean region of Europe. Today it grows worldwide, including South Australia, northern Africa, and the United States.

Milk thistle is commonly called silymarin, which is a major component of its seeds. It is usually considered a weed that has been used for many years as an herbal and natural method of treating liver and gallbladder diseases. Indeed, it’s worth learning more about milk thistle NZ because of the health benefits it brings.

Here are the benefits of silymarin to the liver:

  • Silymarin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. That’s why it is one of the most common herbal supplements used for liver issues because it promotes cell repair and eases inflammation.
  • Silymarin holds free radicals and keeps toxins and other harmful substances from attaching to liver cells.
  • Silymarin can help ease symptoms and liver disease such as jaundice, liver cancer, fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis.

Promotes Healthy Digestion

Artichokes are fiber-rich, keeping your digestive system healthy and reducing your risk of bowel cancer. Also, artichokes help alleviate diarrhea and constipation. It contains inulin, which acts as a probiotic or gut-friendly bacteria for healthy digestion. It can help reduce the signs and symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, such as cramping, stomach pain, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, and flatulence.

Artichokes are high in fiber, low in fat, and rich in vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin C, vitamin K, phosphorus, folate, and magnesium. It is rich in antioxidants and also helps lower bad cholesterol, increase good cholesterol,  regulate blood pressure, and improve liver health. Artichoke extracts contain high concentrations of plant compounds found in food supplements.

Prevent Heart Disease

Turmeric, garlic, and omega-3 fatty acids have major benefits for your heart. Omega-3 fatty acids are usually found in oily cold-water fish. Your body uses omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil to support heart, joint, brain, and skin health. It also helps maintain the right mood balance and proper blood circulation.

Turmeric is yellow and used in India as a medicinal herb and spice for thousands of years. Turmeric contains compounds called curcuminoids, specifically curcumin, which is its main active ingredient. It is a powerful antioxidant with anti-inflammatory effects, which help promote cardiovascular health and prevent heart disease.

However, it’s very difficult to reach the right levels of curcumin by merely using the turmeric as a spice or ingredient in your food. That’s why you have to take a food supplement containing significant amounts of curcumin if you want to experience its full effects.

Another natural detoxification remedy is garlic. It is used to treat many cardiovascular conditions, including the following:

  • High cholesterol: Garlic is thought to help lower bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol.
  • Coronary heart disease: Garlic helps regulate blood pressure to help prevent heart disease.
  • Atherosclerosis: A cardiovascular condition that causes hardening of the arteries and may lead to heart attack and stroke.

Assist in Natural Detoxification Process

The blood is filtered through two detoxification phases. First, you need antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and glutathione, and the second phase involves adding chemicals to make metabolites, stress, pollutants, and drugs soluble so the body can excrete these harmful substances. You need sulfur, glutamine, and glycine foods such as broccoli, cabbage, and garlic to get these needed chemicals.

You can detoxify using natural remedies like herbs, spices, fruits, and vegetables. However, many people are busy and miss preparing and eating nutritious foods. That’s when food supplements come in, as they have natural enzymes and other natural ingredients that help with digestion, cardiovascular health, regulation of blood sugar, healthy skin, and overall health.

Conclusion

Detoxification using natural remedies is a healthy way to attain optimum health. While you can obtain vitamins and minerals from dietary sources, you need an extra boost from natural antioxidants and enzymes found in different herbs, spices, and other food sources required for natural detoxing through supplements.

    And since glutathione is produced by the body on its own, we can only stimulate its natural synthesis. The natural way to boost your levels of the most powerful antioxidant is through proper nutrition and exercise. Another effective way to deliver glutathione to cells is through intravenous administration. There is an excellent article on its influence on us on the zestywell website
