It will take you about 6 weeks to achieve a smooth and complete detoxification of the body. This detoxifying treatment may seem long, but it takes the body some time to regulate itself and eliminate all toxins. On our site you will learn that in general it is recommended to renew the process of detoxification (or detox treatment) 2 times a year, mainly during the changing seasons. For patients with chronic problems we recommend to consult a healthcare professional.
Can I take other medicines during the detoxification?
Yes. There are no known drug interactions. However, some products may contain detoxifying iodine. In this case, the professional advice is recommended. This problem is primarily intended for people with a thyroid disorder and because some of them may have increased sensitivity to iodine. Warning: there are some detox products that will not be suitable for people who suffered from alcoholism. Indeed, detox products on the market have alcohol in their compound.
What are the outward manifestations of a course of detoxification?
The reactions of the body vary from person to person depending on health status, degree of intoxication and sensitivity. However, some states are common for most marketed detoxifying products:
· increased need to urinate
· changes in stool
· bloating and flatulence
· minor skin symptoms
· fatigue
· dizziness
· headaches and etc..
These symptoms should not worry you because they indicate that the process of eliminating toxins is ongoing. However, if symptoms persist and become too intense, reduce your detoxifying treatment and discuss these symptoms with your therapist.
What diet during a course of detoxification?
Some Detox kits commercially available indicate that "no special diet is necessary to achieve satisfactory results." However, we consider that the detoxification also involves food. On this subject read our other articles about detoxifying foods.
