Acai Detox Products

Archive for December, 2009

I found the following lemonade cleanse (or master cleanse) recipe from the web. I took a glance, and I’m almost certain that this detox and weight loss diet won’t work. Why?

Here are the master cleanse ingredients: 

• 2 Tablespoons lemon or limejuice (approximately 1/2 lemon)
• 2 Tablespoons genuine maple syrup (Not maple flavored sugar syrup)
• 1/10 Teaspoon cayenne pepper (red pepper)
• 8 ounces water, room temperature

What are missing in this lemonade diet? Plenty.

Let me expand on this basic master cleanse ingredients first, and towards the end of this article, I’ll show you where to go for the complete formulation.  With it, you can turn the master cleanse recipe into a truly powerful detox and weight loss diet plan. Stay with me.

Very quickly here are what you should know about the ingredients for the lemonade diet:

 Use only….

• Organic ingredients
• Grade B maple syrup
• Filtered water

The portion of the lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper can remain but I’d recommend 10 ounces of filtered water per serving. 

For this detox and weight loss diet to work, and to reap the full benefits of the lemonade cleanse diet, follow the following routine for 10 days.

To the best of my knowledge, 10 days is the optimal number of days to go on the lemonade detox diet for weight loss purpose. Don’t go beyond that unless you’re absolutely sure what you are doing.

Don’t be afraid to go under 10 days though. At any point of time, if you’re not comfortable to continue with this detox and weight loss diet plan, I’d recommend you to stop.

Here’s how your typical day will be like when on this lemonade diet.

• Start your day with sea salt cleanse. Drinking 1 teaspoon of sea salt mixed with 35 ounces of filtered water to flush out your system.
• Make yourself of lemonade drink based on the improved master cleanser recipe.
• Consume between 60 to 120 ounces of lemonade.
• Take plenty of water throughout the day.
• End your day with another sea salt cleanse.

Get yourself mentally prepared a few days before going on the lemon cleanse diet. Personally I find it helpful to train the mind, and get myself prepared for master cleanse.

Relax, and visualize the new you at the end of the cleanse.  See the renewed and confident you once more.

I find strength in visualization. And I believe doing it while on the lemon cleanse diet helps to improve your chance of completing the cleanse.

Consider following this lemonade cleanse recommendation if you want to lose weight and detox at the same time.

Your body has a natural detox system that works through the liver, kidneys and lower gastrointestinal tract. It is important to understand that just as our external body parts and sensory organs help us perform our daily routine work, the internal organs perform many complex functions vital for our survival. Apart from the respiratory system of lungs and the circulatory system of the heart the most basic function of our internal organs is to produce energy by digesting food and taking in the nutrients.

In a perfect world our bodies would work to detoxify and cleanse the body of all the impurities we are exposed to. But in the real world we are constantly exposed to thousands of toxins and chemicals daily. We come in contact with these toxins and chemicals where we work, in our homes, in the air we breathe and through our food and water supply. In addition to these coincidental exposures, our diets include more processed foods, sugars and non-healthy fats than ever before. These causes along with others such as illness, disease, alcohol, tobacco, drugs (prescriptions and or illegal), and even overeating, can cause the body to struggle or become sluggish and unable to detoxify and cleanse itself.

I Eat Well and Exercise Daily…Do I Still Have to Worry About Toxins?

Research and studies have pointed out that even without the slow down of our natural body detoxification functions, our bodies simply are not capable of performing the natural detox process and eliminating the variety of toxins and chemicals that are ingested on a daily basis.

Over a period of time these toxins accumulate in our body’s cells (especially in fat cells), blood and tissues, organs (colon, liver and brain) and remain stored in the body for an indefinite length of time. Without performing a whole body cleansing, these toxins eventually bringing all kinds of health issues as time goes by.

Methods of Detoxification

More people are aware of body detoxification procedures in today’s world, because of modern medicine’s link between colon health and overall health. There is a belief that many common complaints like fatigue, gas, bloating, constipation, headaches, indigestion and weight gain are due in large part to a build up of toxin-filled fecal matter that builds in the colon over time. But the need for body cleansing goes beyond cleansing the colon. The whole body needs to be addressed with special attention to the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and the colon too.

Attempts for body detoxification are often made through means like the modification of diet, the use of herbs or teas and more radical methods like colon hydrotherapy, juice fasting and sweat lodges. In certain extreme cases artificial detox techniques such as dialysis are used to cleanse and detoxify the body of dangerous toxins. Some of these methods stray far away from the body’s natural detox process, don’t provide the necessary nutrients needed to keep your organs in optimal health and some methods may even end up causing more damage to your body than it does good.

Finding a Healthy Detox System

Before deciding on a method of body cleansing, it’s important to have an understanding of the organs involved in the body’s natural detox process; the liver, kidneys, pancreas and colon. Not only how they work to detoxify the body but more importantly the necessary steps you will need to take to assure the health of these vital organs during your detox.

I suggest finding a plan developed by a reputable medical professional or a body detoxification expert to insure a healthy experience. Choose a method that will address the whole body in the detox process, will jump start your body’s natural detox system, and will address the nutritional well-being of your whole body and the health of your vital organs.

Consider going for detox massage that is not only relaxing but also aids your body in the removal of toxic waste. A detox massage can be of great support to any cleansing program you are in. It can address health conditions including fatigue, headaches, fibromyalgia, and other system dysfunctions that result from the presence of toxins in your body.

A detox massage is helpful because of the rhythmic strokes that your therapist apply to stimulate your body. Your therapist uses a combination of massage movements including irregular and altering applications of pressure that gently compress and stretch your muscle tissues.

There are a number of different massage therapies that also promotes detoxification. One example of a detox massage is the lymphatic massage. The lymphatic system is one of the main elimination systems of the body that is integral in the detoxification process. It is responsible for the absorption of food nutrients and also creates a waste disposal system in your body. Your therapist uses strokes that that help your lymphatic system to clear dietary toxins and other unwanted substances. Your massage therapist can help remove blockages in your blood circulatory system. The toxic waste are actually by-products of stress, dead cells, heavy metals and other excess debris.

A detox massage can also enhance your immune system, strengthen the muscles and toughen your connective tissue. If your muscles are relaxed, then your body is likely to detoxify and cleanse much better. An analogy can be drawn here. Just imagine if you are constipated and your muscles are tense. Did you not have a hard time trying to remove your bowels? When you are less stressed, your organs including your digestive system and gastrointestinal tract, are likely to perform at optimal levels. Under the skilful hands of your therapist, you can end up feeling so relaxed that you may even fall asleep during the session.

A Swedish massage can be likened to a detox massage. It normalizes oxygen levels and improves the function of your colon drainage as well as other organs involved in the detoxification process. Traditional Chinese massages are also excellent for body cleansing. The strokes may differ slightly but the aim of a session is the same.

The next time you step into a health spa, be sure to ask for a massage that helps detoxify and cleanse your body. You may also want to consider signing up for a few sessions so as to reap maximum benefits from this form of healing.

We take utmost care to keep our outer body in perfect condition and shape, but there is one thing that most of us often tend to neglect, that is our inner body.

Body detoxification is a method that helps in cleaning our internal organs like kidney, liver, lungs etc. and flushing out harmful toxins. There are many detox recipes that are available therefore, depending on your taste, preference, and organ you can pick one particular body detox recipe that is likely to suit your needs the best.

There are several medicines found on the market that can help in body detoxification, but I personally would never recommend my readers to go for market bought medicines when there are several home remedies available that do not have any adverse side effects unlike most commercially bought medicines.

Below are a few body detox recipes that you may consider using:

1)Body detox Recipe 1:
1/2 cup of warm water

2 cups medium diced red bell pepper
2 cups medium diced red onions
1/2 cup medium diced celery
2 cups medium diced cucumber
1 teaspoon of minced garlic
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 cups organic vegetable juice
pinch of cayenne
1 teaspoon cumin (optional)

Method of preparation:
All you need to do is put the diced tomato, peppers, red onions, celery, and cucumber in a bowl and mix them together. Then divide the mixture into two bowls. Add garlic to one of the bowls and transfer it to a blender. Make a puree of the mixture until it becomes smooth. Next, add vegetable juice, cayenne, and cumin to the puree and run the blender again. Now add this freshly made mixture into the other bowl of diced vegetables and put it in the refrigerator for the night. Next day, before serving, you can garnish it with cilantro and lemon and voila, you have your Gazpacho Soup ready.

When purchasing any weight loss product, it is important to do your research. Many people are exchanging their opinions about Acai Berry Detox on DietBlogTalk.com

For an additional source, check out Acai Berry Detox on the very popular Sensational.com

Overview

A rash has spread over the diet market. Someone, somewhere go the idea to promote Acai supplements as detoxifiers and weight loss agents. This product rationale seems to fly in the face of the conventional wisdom on Acai Berries – and not in a good way.

Consier Acai Berry Detox, for example. Here is a product that promises the flushing of 5-20 excess pounds of toxins and waste. And it’s all supposed to work by the power of Acai Berries. But, in our estimation, there is little reason to believe that Acai Berries can accomplish such a feat, and so Acai Berry Detox joins scads of others in looking an awful lot like a scam.

Ingredients at a Glance

Acai Berry Detox’s website contains little to no ingredients information. Apparently, the supplement runs purely on Acai Berries.

Ingredients in Focus

Acai Berries are prized for their fairly significant nutritional content. They’re known for delivering good fats, protein, vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. In short, it’s no wonder they’re considered a superfood. However, even as a superfood, they fall in the middle of the road, neither the most nor the least nutritious in any given category.

Regardless of the berries’ nutritional content, however, there seems to be no reason to claim that Acai Berries will contribute to detoxification of the body. Furthermore, any weight loss promoted by Acai Berries is most likely attributable to the sort of lifestyle lived by folks interested in superfoods to begin with. In other words, Acai Berries can help with weight loss when they’re a part a healthy lifestyle, and not when they’re sold by a scam artist.

Positives

•    Acai Berries are good for you.

Negatives

•    Acai Berries most likely do not cleanse.

•    Acai Berries most likely do not contribute directly to weight loss.

•    Acai Berry Detox website makes it seem like one big scam.

Final Thoughts

If you’re interested in nutrition, look for Acai Berries and Acai juice. Such products are widely available these days, and the berries can contribute to a healthy lifestyle. But as for supplements like Acai Berry Detox – we recommend avoiding them completely. There are simply too many similar Acai cleansers for any one of them to be legitimate. It all looks like a bunch of creative marketing.

If you need a weight loss supplement, look for one which contains a proven fat burner and and an ingredient to assist with appetite and craving control. Add a healthy diet and exercise and you will lose weight.
