The more you help the organs of elimination work at optimum the more toxins your body will remove, the better your system will cope, the less pain you will suffer.

There are 5 major organs of elimination busy working every second of the day, come what may. Give them more than they can handle and they begin to struggle, toxins begin to affect every cell in the body.

1) Liver – drinking water with 1/2 the juice of a fresh lemon first thing in the morning will help activate the liver.

2) Lungs – take a brisk walk of 30 minutes each day will help the lungs function better and remove accumulated acids in the blood.

3) Skin – brushing the skin with a natural bristle brush while the skin is dry. Just before a shower, will encourage the lymphatic system and the skin (which is our largest detoxing organ) to function better.

4) Bowels- add ground flaxseeds (linseeds) to your daily diet, they are anti-inflammatory and extremely high in fiber, helping to cleanse the bowels in a natural way.
