Spring clean your body!

Spring clean your closet? Why not spring clean your body through detox!

By Cary Galloway

If your fall/winter routine consisted of watching endless reality shows while indulging in heavy foods and sipping one too many glasses of fine merlot, the latest health trend -- detoxification -- may be just your ticket to a healthier, leaner you. As we spring clean our closets, so should we spring clean our bodies and a mild detox program will help give your body a chance to cleanse itself before those hot summer backyard parties begin.

Detoxification has become de rigeur for a bevy of A-lister's like Gwyneth Paltrow and Jack Osbourne, but if sipping cabbage soup and litres of water isn't exactly your idea of yummy cuisine, don't fret. Burlington-based nutritionist Cary Galloway gives ELLECANADA.COM a simple, yet effective detox program that suits virtually every lifestyle.

Tone down: Detoxes can be very beneficial to the body in helping to rid itself from accumulated toxins, food additives, pesticides, caffeine, alcohol, nicotine and a poor diet. They are also very effective in helping those that suffer from bloating, indigestion, headaches, fatigue, weight gain and low immunity.
Some detoxification programs out there are extreme and often too much for the average person to take on. They can be unpleasant and sometimes dangerous if not followed properly.

What's next then? How can you follow a mild cleansing program that is manageable for you, and realistic with your lifestyle? Take a look at the steps below and try to follow them as best as you can. The simple task of changing just one or two things in your regular routine will help to improve your overall well being and will help to cleanse your system just in time for the summer. Not only will your body thank you, but so will your mind and spirit. Go ahead and let the change of season bring good things your way!
