Three Cleanses for Spring Detox
Paula Gallagher on
Spring, a time of renewal, is a natural time for detoxification. Though the body naturally detoxifies itself, with subtle diet changes and some nutritional supplements, we can help aid the process. Herbs, water, exercise, and a clean diet can support the body, giving it energy to spring into a new season.
Starting your day with a glass of water with freshly squeezed lemon is a simple everyday cleanse that anyone can do. For a deeper spring detox, there are many cleanse kits available. Here are some of the best.
Every Day Detox
Innate Clear Response: This tasty cleanse doesn’t have to be used just for one season. Clear Response can easily be mixed with water for detox on-the-go. It also contains antioxidant support as well as the following :
1) Glycine – essential for Phase II detoxification.
2) Milk thistle – helps maintain a healthy liver.
3) Burdock – supports a healthy liver.
4) Broad spectrum digestive enzymes – digestive support.
First Time Cleanse
Enzymatic Therapy Simple Cleanse: A gentle, targeted intestinal cleanse that enhances your body's own natural internal cleansing process for thorough detoxification.
A simple 2-week program to cleanse and detoxify that contains patent-pending True Dispersion™ Technology, giving you fiber that goes to work instantly and cleans all the way down. It also contains a gentle, no-stimulant laxative that safely cleanses and strengthens the body's natural detoxification process, as well as a soothing herbal blend that promotes healthy, comfortable bowel cleansing and effective detoxification.
Whole Body Cleanse
Garden of Life Raw Cleanse: RAW Cleanse from Garden of Life features uncooked, untreated and unadulterated ingredients that are designed to support your body's natural digestive and detoxification systems. It is a three-part cleanse that supports organ detoxification, toxin removal and immune health.

Here are some more tips to consider when doing a cleanse:
· Drink at least the recommended 64 ounces of filtered water each day.
· Eat fresh fruit, vegetables (particularly crucifers and bitter greens, such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, endive and radicchio), seeds, nuts and lean protein – organic whenever possible, with wild caught fish.
· Increase your healthy fat intake by adding 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon each of organic coconut oil, flaxseed oil, cod liver oil and olive oil per day to your diet.
· Keep high allergen foods, such as dairy and wheat products, to a bare minimum.
· Eliminate caffeine, tea, coffee and alcoholic beverages.
· Eliminate added sugar, refined flour, processed foods and fatty food with trans fats.
· Eliminate skin care products with ingredients you can't pronounce.
· Use natural cleaning products.
