We’ve heard the word “detoxification” many times, but what exactly is a “toxin”? Simply put, any unwanted waste that remains in the body after metabolism and cannot be eliminated normally can be called toxins, including external toxins, endogenous toxins and emotional toxins, which are substances that can interfere with normal physiological activities and disrupt the function of the body. Intrinsic toxins such as: free radicals, cholesterol, fat, uric acid, lactic acid and stagnant blood. External toxins such as: atmospheric pollution, pesticide residues in vegetables, automobile exhaust, industrial waste gas, chemicals, radiation, preservatives in food, excessive heavy metals in cosmetics, pathogenic microorganisms and so on. Emotional toxins such as: according to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), anger harms the liver, happiness harms the heart, excessive thinking harms the spleen, excessive sadness harms the lungs, and extreme fear harms the kidneys. Toxins on our body will cause what damage? 1, toxins will destroy the face value When the detoxification pipeline in the body does not work, detoxification is not smooth, the poison will be present in the body, damage the function of the internal organs, produce acne, pigmentation, dry skin, loss of elasticity and many other diseases and discomforts. Stool in the intestinal tract to stay too long, toxins through the intestinal wall reabsorbed into the blood, so that the blood becomes dirty, but also aggravate the burden on the liver, easily lead to skin diseases. 2, toxins will accelerate aging early aging because of “chronic poisoning”. Age, the body’s organs are also gradually aging, the liver and gallbladder detoxification function decline, kidney and intestinal detoxification function is also gradually declining, the operation of other organs are gradually slowed down. However, the waste or toxins produced by the body’s metabolic processes are not reduced. When toxins accumulate in the body, the body acidification, gradually triggering a variety of chronic poisoning phenomenon, can accelerate the aging of human cells. 3, toxins will make people obese Many people are obese, not because they eat too much, but because too little row, the body’s metabolism is impaired, resulting in “not enough to go into”, waste accumulation in the body and caused. When the body’s fat exceeds the liver’s load, the fat will be stored in the blood in the adipose tissue. Fat is easy to hoard in the buttocks, arms, thighs and lower abdomen, so the more toxic the more fat, the more fat the more toxic! 4, toxins will make people sick Over the years, the organs in the assault of toxins under great pressure, the function of the organs will begin to dysfunction, the operation becomes unsmooth. When the toxins accumulated to the body can not load, germs and viruses one after another not only launched an attack on them, so the disease began. It can cause endocrine disorders, sleep disorders, Alzheimer’s disease and other mental illnesses. Toxins on the body caused by the damage is very large, the light damage to the appearance of the impact of the face value, the heavy damage to the organs and threaten life. How do we detoxify? The body’s own immune system is able to carry out detoxification operations, but due to the physical quality of high and low, irregular work and rest, the external environment and other factors, resulting in toxins can not be discharged in a timely and effective manner, and the accumulation of toxins the most intuitive signs are basically appearing in the face, the low temperature in the winter, the body’s function slows down, resulting in the accumulation of toxins intensified, winter skin care, detoxification is the first step! 1, skin detoxification how to row? As the body’s largest barrier organ, the skin not only plays a role in protecting other tissues, but also has a complete detoxification system. Sweat glands will be discharged body fluids, which are mixed with a variety of metabolic processes produced in the garbage and toxins, sebaceous glands are responsible for the secretion of sebum, if the sebum excretion is not smooth will be triggered by acne and blackheads. Not only that, when there are bacteria and other microorganisms to invade the human body through the skin, the skin will put up a shield, when the defense fails bacteria invade the skin inside, the skin in the macrophage will choose to go with the bacteria and other harmful substances, that is, we can see the pus phenomenon. 2, the body how to detoxification? The same as the skin, the body’s organs also have a set of their own detoxification system, such as liver blood detoxification, lungs discharge carbon dioxide, the spleen against bacteria microbes and so on. The body detoxification that we usually pay more attention to is mostly lymphatic and intestinal detoxification. Lymph is responsible for the whole body’s circulatory system and is an important immune organ, so when the body is attacked by bacteria and inflammation occurs, it will be accompanied by lymph node swelling. Because of this, the proper functioning of the lymph helps to remove waste and toxins produced during the metabolic process. If the lymphatic circulation is not functioning properly, it can show visible changes in the skin, such as acne and pigmentation, and a dull and lackluster complexion. The intestinal tract in the detoxification process plays a more prominent role, our body’s own excretion must rely on the intestinal tract will be metabolites and garbage out of the body, playing a role similar to the relationship between the kidneys and urine. When a large number of abnormal flora growth in the intestinal tract or intestinal collection of waste is too much, the entire intestinal flora balance will be disturbed, depending on the person’s constitution, diarrhea or constipation may occur, and then the corresponding signs appear on the skin. In winter, how do we accelerate the skin and body detoxification? 1, moderate increase in water intake, so that toxins with urine or sweat out of the body. 2, more consumption of insoluble fiber that is high in crude fiber content of food, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, can help clean up the intestinal tract attached to the garbage and bacterial metabolites. 3, fermented dairy products contain probiotics, which can help balance the intestinal flora and maintain a healthy and stable intestinal state. 4, to maintain quality sleep. Long-term sleep deprivation, stay up late and sleep late will make your body metabolism slow down, endocrine disorders, resulting in a variety of skin problems. And quality sleep can promote the purification process in the body, at the same time, quality sleep can accelerate the liver blood, replenish the blood, comprehensively strengthen the various functions of the body organs, so that the body’s circulation and metabolism accelerated, the toxins naturally can not stay in the body. Therefore, go to bed before 11 o’clock to draw a perfect ending for the day’s detoxification action. 5, the appropriate amount to strengthen the movement, to exercise this active way not only can sweat detoxification, but also can achieve the effect of slimming and weight loss. Before and after the movement must pay attention to drink more water, in order to by urination, sweating to detoxification. 6, cupping, gua sha, massage, etc., can improve local microcirculation, eliminate stagnation, open up the occluded meridians, promote the toxins quickly with the body fluids out of the body.
