Detoxing is gaining a lot of attention over the years because of the amount of junk food we eat every day.

For the uninitiated, detoxing our body, also called colon cleansing, simply means removing the toxic waste in our body to improve our health. These wastes are generally faeces that are accumulated in our large intestines that can lead to health problems like body odour, smelly breath, digestive problems, fatigue, and even weight gain and acne.

While our body can naturally eliminate toxins, there are many ways to give it a push with some simple changes in our lifestyle, or with detox or colon cleansing products. Those who underwent a detox or colon cleansing therapy usually experience less bloating, better digestion, and overall better health.

Let’s take a look at the different ways we can improve our body’s natural detox system, and what other things we can do to further detox and cleanse and body.

1. Drink more water

Our moms nag at us to drink more water all the time and she can never be more correct. Water plays a major role in maintaining our health, including detoxifying our body and removing waste products. Water transports and eliminate toxins in the body through urinating, defecating, perspiration, and even breathing, so it is common sense to drink more water for effective body detox and colon cleansing.

2. Cut down on sugar and processed food

Modern city-dwellers take in more junk food than ever before in human history, and they are the root cause of many chronic diseases like cancer, heart diseases, and diabetes. All the sugar and processed food can hinder our body’s natural ability to get rid of toxins by harming our liver and kidneys, and therefore, it would be wiser to replace these unhealthy foods with whole food, and plenty of fruits and vegetables.

3. Load up on antioxidant-rich food

Antioxidants do not detox your body or cleanse your colon directly. However, antioxidants can reduce the damage caused by free radicals in our body, and that will, in turn, lower the risks of getting diseases that will hinder our body detox. Food high in antioxidants include berries, fruits, nuts, dark chocolate, vegetables, and beverages such as green tea and coffee.

4. Reduce alcohol intake

Our liver plays an important role in toxin removal. Excessive alcohol intake can damage our liver, causing fat buildup, inflammation, and scarring. When that happens, our body cannot get rid of toxins effectively.

5. Eat more food that is high in prebiotics

A healthy gut is important for a healthy body and prebiotics, a type of fibre that the good bacteria in your gut feeds on, is essential to keep your body’s detox system healthy. Some examples of food that are high in prebiotics are tomatoes, bananas, oats, asparagus, and garlic.

6. Stay active

Exercising regularly improves circulation in the blood and lymph system. It can also strengthen our body, making natural detoxification more efficient.

7. Try detox and colon cleansing supplements

There are many reliable detox and colon cleansing products in the market to cleanse the body of the toxins we ingest. Kinohimitsu Detox Enzyme 30’s and D’Tox Plum Juice 6’s are two of our favourite body detox and colon cleansing supplements that we tried.

 

Kinohimitsu Detox Enzyme 30’s

Kinohimitsu Detox Enzyme is a concentrated digestive enzyme blend from 365-day fermentation of 75 types of fresh fruits and vegetables. It replenishes enzymes in our body to ensure optimal wellness and beauty. The enzymes also act as a catalyst to accelerate chemical reactions in our body to improve our detoxification system, to break down and purge toxins, and to repair damaged cells.

Just empty a sachet of Kinohimitsu Detox Enzyme into a cup of water, mix well and drink it. While every individual’s reaction is different, most of us will start clearing our bowels after a couple of hours as the reactions take place in our body to facilitate body detox and colon cleansing. After taking three packets over a week, there was significantly less bloating in my body, and I felt less lethargic in the daytime. I have to also add that this pretty pink beverage also tastes great and refreshing.

D’Tox Plum Juice 6’s

Kinohimitsu D’Tox Plum Juice is great for those who experience constipation. It is a six-day program to help the body flush out toxins within 2-4 hours of consumption without disrupting your daily life.

D’Tox Plum is 100% natural and is one of the fastest bowel-clearing supplement in the market. We tried one bottle of D’Tox Plum to see if what it claims is true, and lo and behold, I started going to the toilet after 2 hours to clear my bowels. It contains no additives and comes with high concentrations of dietary fibre which increases the beneficial cultures in the digestive tract and helps to fortify your body’s defences.

From now till 31 Aug, enjoy 50% off @kinohimitsusg’s Detox Enzyme and D’Tox Plum Juice bundle – get it at just $49.90 on Kinohimitsu’s official e-store! Products are also available at Qoo10, Lazada, Shopee, Taobao, Guardian and Watsons.
