Can I Jump Start Fat Loss With a Detox or Cleanse?
Author: Holly Rigsby  | Posted: 15-03-2008 | Comments: 0 | Views: 13 | Rating: (56)  (?) 
Detox for Fat Loss? Can I jump start fat loss with with a Detox or Cleanse? Feeling tired and sluggish? Unable to lose weight? Constipated? Have a bulging belly? Suffer from acid reflux, acne, headaches, etc.? Well the only thing that could be causing all of this must be the Toxins in your body or maybe you are infested with Parasites... right?
Wouldn't that be a relief - knowing that's all it is! All you need is an almighty cleanse or a powerful detox drink! Then just choose which plan to follow - 3 day, 8 day, 30 day and get ready pay $200-$300 a pop or more to get started.....plus factor in the maintenance. For after the cleanse is finished, there will be even more products to buy to help you continue to stay toxin and parasite free!
Can I just say.....stop the madness!
Here's the bottom line. When it comes to fat loss, the solutions - that have been proven time and time again, lie in making small changes to the way you live - the way you eat, think and move - each and every day.
Spending hundred of dollars on the latest Fad detox or cleanse is not going to solve the true reasons why you gained weight and are unhealthy in the first place.
You are not the victim of the symptoms described above or those found on many of the detox and cleaner websites.
You are responsible for these symptoms.
A hard pill to swallow, I know.
But if you simply take a step back and take a look at how you are choosing to treat your body....
Filling it with overly processed, convenient foods - foods that are DEAD- devoid of nutrients Drinking pounds of sugar Drinking equal pounds of Artificial Sweeteners Not drinking enough water....if any Sitting all day long Not getting enough Sleep Super Stressed Taking too many medications Smoking Drinking Alcohol
No Wonder our bodies are full of toxins! No wonder we have difficulty waking up each morning, getting through the day, feeling good about ourselves, having an inkling of energy, let alone seeing any type of weight loss!
A miracle drink, shake or cleanse is not going to do anything to help you permanently change the habits that created these results from the start.
Why not begin by taking a look at your daily habits and start from there.
So, is there a way to change the way you eat that can jump start your fat loss efforts?
Absolutely!
Here are 5 Nutrition Tips to initiate a Natural, Fat Burning "Cleanse"
1. Drink Water - Water is the the ultimate detoxifier. It takes the burden off your liver and kidneys and gets you colon working. Choose filtered water and aim to drink at least 2 quarts a day. Not sure if you are drinking enough...your urine is the best indicator - it should be clear.
2. Eat whole, natural fruits, veggies, proteins and healthy fats. These are the foods our body craves. They are alive and filled with the nutrients to power your cells so you in turn have the right environment for a supercharged metabolism and the fat loss benefits that come with it.
3. Eat Often. Are you eating every 3 to 4 hours - a must if you want to boost your metabolism.
4. Eat Enough. You cannot starve fat off your body. In order to see results your body must stay fueled. Avoid eating less than 1200 calories a day to prevent a lack of energy, cravings, as well as the loss of lean muscle - which will slow your metabolism to a halt.
5. Eat more Fresh Produce. Are you getting 7 to 10 servings of fruits and veggies a day? Did you know you need at lest 25-30 grams of fiber a day? High fiber diets move food, toxins, and parasites through quickly and harmlessly.
