Transformation Tuesday: Post Holiday Bloat? 5 Easy Ways to Detox

Holidays are always fun....until the next day. You return to work, you're tired, cranky and bloated. So what are some easy ways to detox your body from the recent increase in intake? Here are five ways to detox your body. No fads or crazy ideas here. Just a few quick ways to recuperate :)

1. Cut Your Sugar Intake-->yesssss....I know I said it lol

Holidays and seasons come and go. It can be very beneficial to do a seasonal detox to clear your body of toxins to facilitate a boost in your m
etabolism and increase your optimal level of functioning. Simply start cutting your sugar consumption. Be mindful of the small, sneaky ways sugar gets added into your diet like your coffee and creamer. When we increase our sugar intake, it changes the way our body utilizes insulin and strains our pancreas which fatigues our body.

2. Get Moving


Regular activity improves your circulatory system. Thus also improving your body's ability to digest food, improve strength, improve mobility in your joints and decrease stress. Those who regularly exercise research proves that their body functions at a higher level and has fewer toxins.

3. Hydrate

Water has more benefits than I can list. Waking up and drinking a glass of water before eating helps to re-hydrate the system and improves digestion. By improving our digestion and level of hydration we also enable our bodies to rid the waste.


4. Drink Tea

Drinking tea has several benefits including it hydrates your body (herbal tea especially), it has beneficial antioxidants and fills our body up. Thus, this can assist in  being less likely to overate or skip the quick snacks. Caffeinated teas versus consuming coffee is less stressful to our system while still gaining the benefits of a boost.

5. Stick to Your Fruits & Veggies

Adding color to your diet is especially beneficial when you are detoxing. Having a colorful variety of veggies and fruits should always be the main focus to your diet along side complex carbs, beans, nuts and seeds when detoxing. Eating whole plan foods are more beneficial because they are not overly processed and maintain their nutrient content that our body needs.
