    Default Way to flush out toxins without a fast?

    I am beginning the new month with better eating. Now, I have been eating pretty well this past month but I had about three days this week where I totally pigged out and i feel i want a cleanse...Darn bday parties!
    Is there something I can buy and use while in addition to easting more clean and fresh and drinking lots of water?

    Pomegrate juice, water, lots of fiber!! I think as long as you are eating whole foods and drinking a lot of water you will be fine!

    Dandelion tea (you can pick your own but look up the proper handling & cleaning) Health food stores also sell great detox teas...
    & Drink lots of water & eat lots of Vitamin C-containing foods.

    Chickweed is my favorite...

    ^ Lena's right, I forgot about chickweed..It works wonders but beware if you have sensitivity to ragweed. (& It smells like wet alfalfa. Tastes OK though.)

    Milk Thistle!! It's great for your liver.

    A new one I have heard is Niacin pills.

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Yea part of my fast is to detox myself because i have been partying alot the past 2 months. I want to detox and make a fresh start with drinking as well, so the liver(milk thistle one) interests me.
    I am going to try them all all various points this month, are the chickweed capsules just as good?

    I drink chickweed tea, it seems like a better way to ingest it...You'll notice the difference in your skin (finer texture.)

    I have taken milk thistle capsules to clean excess estrogen from my liver...My only complaint is the impurities come out of the skin (like facial blemishes) not a good thing if you need to have a clear face for work.

    No, chickweed should only be used fresh. You can probably find it tinctured at your health food store (and the tincture should have been made with the fresh herb).

    Milk thistle is a really great liver support. Chickweed will go into every cell of your body and take out the bad stuff (according to Susan Weed).

    Remember as your detoxing to nourish your body in regrowing healthy tissues...

    What about a massage? I've always found that I get sick after them if I don't drink a ton of water afterwards.

    Lena, I've never even heard of chickweed. Ok, so if you use it fresh, how are you using it? Do you use it in cooking, make a tea out of it??

    I want to start treating my mind and body better...I'm glad this thread was started.

    I eat it straight out of the ground. I mean, I tell myself I'm going to take it back to the van and make a salad... but it's so yummy I just eat it. I also tincture it fresh so that I'll have it for the winter (but even in the winter if you know where to find it under the snow, it's still there).

    Check out Healing Wise, by Susan Weed... it's got everything you could ever want to know about chickweed and a few other common weeds that are really really good for you. I bet your library already has it.

    niacin... my bf and i took it after we got home from our cruise and needed to clean our bodies out... did lots of partying.. drink lots of liquids, take some milk thisle to coat ur tummy..and cranberry PILLS!!!

    FYI: the niacin may make you feel a bit weird if your body is full of toxins, my bf broke out in red hives after the cruise bc we got so loaded, and he had to clean out fast :x

    I went for a treatment called bio detox its a footspa and there is a device in it which removes toxins from ur body by osmosis. U sit with ur feet in it for 30 mins because thats how long it takes for the blood to circulate round the whole body, and while u sit there the therapist massages the lymph nodes behind ur knees and on ur neck and shoulders in order to aid detox. After 30 mins the water has turned yellow ish with bits floating in it which are cholesterol. Afterwards she does a reflexology treatment and u are left feeling great, slightly euphoric.

    Lots of water. Regardles of what other things you use, you need the water to actually carry the crap out (and dont forget to take some sea salt with it) (-:

    The "niacin rush" is a reaction to the niacin that some people get--the tingly feeling, the redness. I noticed this when I was taking niacin as a supplement.
