Signs Your Body Needs a Deep Cleanse
Admin 17 Nov 2022
If you’re feeling sluggish, bloated, or just generally not your best, it might be time for a cleanse or detox. Though there are many different ways to cleanse the body, most experts agree that there are certain signs that indicate when your body is in need of a deep cleansing.
If you’re experiencing any of the following signs, it’s time to give your body the cleanse or detox it needs:
You are always tired: If you’re constantly exhausted, even after a good night’s sleep, it could be a sign that your body is overloaded with toxins. A cleansing program can help to jumpstart your energy levels and help you feel more rested.
You have trouble digesting food: If you frequently experience indigestion, gas, or bloating after eating, it could be a sign that your digestive system is in need of a cleanse. Cleansing can help to flush out the digestive system and improve overall function. It’s great to consume more fiber rich foods and water, but you should also keep in mind that the bowels need seasonal detox, particularly after the society and fatty food of the winter.
You have skin problems: If you suffer from regular breakouts, dryness, or other skin issues, it could be due to toxins build up in the body. A cleansing program can help to clear out these toxins and give your skin a chance to heal.
You feel stressed: If you find yourself feeling anxious or overwhelmed on a regular basis, it could be a sign that your body is in need of detoxification.
Trouble falling asleep: When you have trouble falling asleep, that's a serious symptom that you need to detox. Toxin overload can interfere with our circadian clock and make it more difficult to fall asleep. Even worse, it might wake you up in the middle of the night, interfere with your REM cycle, and cause worse issues down the road.
Poor memory and concertation: When you experience too much toxicity, it affects your liver that causes build up in the bloodstream that travels to your brain. When this occurs, it can prevent the neurotransmitters from performing as they should, slowing down your brain.
You suffer from mood swings: To help you cope us with stress, our body produces a happy hormone-called Dopamine and other chemicals. But, when there is too much negativity and toxins in the system, Dopamine production can be hindered. If not controlled, it can result in depression, which can be more difficult to treat.
How to detox your body?
There are many different ways to approach a detox, but most involve some combination of eliminating certain foods from your diet (like sugar, alcohol, caffeine, processed foods), adding in detoxifying foods and supplements (like fresh fruits and vegetables, herbs and spices), and increasing your water intake. Many people also find it helpful to sweat regularly during a detox (through activities like saunas or exercise) as sweat helps release toxins from the body.
In case of severe toxin accumulation, ayurvedic therapy Panchakarma can provide great help. To know about personalized Panchakarma, a natural detoxication therapy and why you should go for it, consult a good ayurveda doctor/vaidya in the country.
When your body is overloaded with toxins, it can be difficult to function properly. If you feel sluggish, have trouble focusing, or are constantly tired, a deep cleanse may be what you need. Other signs that your body needs a cleanse include digestive problems, bad breath, and skin issues.
If you’re thinking about doing a detox, it’s important to consult with an Ayurveda doctor/Vaidya first – especially if you have any underlying health conditions.
