As the New Year approaches, hardly a day goes by that I don’t see an email or Facebook post advocating a full body detox.
The general idea is to undo the damage from all the holiday indulgence.
(I even offer a Kitchen Detox Makeover; it’s not quite the same thing, but a detox just the same.)
And of course, with New Year’s Eve just five days away, the holiday celebrations aren’t even over yet.
So, what’s the point of a Detox, anyway?
Is this just some “new agey” thing?
Why would the human body even need to detox? And what exactly are you detoxing from?
Well, I admit, I’ve been among those to roll their eyes in the past, at the slightest mention of the word.
Maybe other people embraced the idea, but I sure didn’t
But then I realized a few things.
And the most eye-opening realization was this: my body is detoxing all the time, anyway, every single day.
It’s doing this all on it’s own, with absolutely no prompting from me.
In a nutshell, this is how your body is always detoxing:
Your Skin
You know how great you feel after a work out, especially if you’ve worked up a good sweat?
Well, guess what?
