What's next after the Metagenics Clear Change 28-Day Detox Program with UltraClear® Plus (Vanilla)?
After completing the 28-day metabolic detox, you should be aware of its beneficial effects on immunity, muscle and joint pain, low energy levels, and more. It's like a full-body reset. Some people choose to detox once a year, while some do it twice a year. Apart from these 28-56 days, what can be done in the remaining 300 days is a significant question. You need to detoxify daily to maintain low toxin levels in the body and support the body's natural detoxification pathways.
Heavy metals, pesticides and industrial chemicals (PCBs) are the toxins that surround us in the environment, food and medicines. You need to find ways to fight these toxins by limiting exposure and eliminating them from the body.
- Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly under cold running water. This may not completely remove pesticides, but it can remove dirt and bacteria that may lead to foodborne diseases.
- Avoid using plastic. You may be using plastic water bottles or food storage containers. Many people are unaware that plastic can expose the body to toxins. It has chemicals that seep into water and food. Do you keep a plastic water bottle in your car throughout the day? Maybe yes! That water has chemicals or toxins. What happens when you drink this water? You know the answer! It is advisable to use a container or water bottle made of glass or steel.
- Avoid alcohol and smoking.
- Follow healthy lifestyle tips daily.
- Make sure to get sufficient fibre from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. It improves digestive health. We know the gut, immunity and brain are connected. Fibre also removes toxins from the gut.
- Sleep for 7-8 hours to release stress and improve mood.
- Eat a pomegranate daily. You can take it during your snack time, too. You have more options, such as sprinkling pomegranate seeds on oatmeal or salad.
- A slice of avocado is a good option for snack time.
- You should eat green vegetables daily. Make sure to add broccoli to as many days of the week as you can. Broccoli sprouts are also a good source of sulphur. Its active form is sulforaphane, which has a role in detoxification.
- Green tea is rich in antioxidants called catechins, which protect against environmental toxins and support liver detoxification pathways. Instead of choosing coffee, take green tea.
