Detox with Exercise After You Quit Smoking to Feel Better Quicker
Once you’ve given up smoking you’re ready for a healthier body and a healthier life. One of the ways to start cleaning house in your body is to detoxify it and you’ll start feeling better quicker!
An abundance of toxins builds up in the body over the passage of time. Not only do they come from cigarette smoke but also from alcohol, drugs and the foods and beverages we consume. They also come from our environment – the chemicals and pollutants we breathe in, as well as the personal care products we use on our bodies and the cleaners we use at home and at work. Toxins are everywhere!
The body needs to rid itself of the toxins and does its best to do so. Toxins are released from the body through sweat, breathing, urine and tears. Too much toxic build-up can lead to health problems. It helps to give the body a hand with its detoxification process. After all the fewer toxins that are in the body, the better it’s able to work.
Eating healthy is an integral part of detoxifying the body. Stay away from processed fatty foods at all times and limit your sugar intake. Drink plenty of water on a daily basis to flush out your system. Include herbal teas in your daily life and avoid caffeine as much as you can.
Exercise to a Toxin-Free You:
Exercising on a regular basis is also a big help in getting toxins to leave the body in a timely manner. Physical activity and eating right work best when they accompany one another. Think of them as each other’s complimentary half!
When you work out on a consistent basis, regardless of what form it takes, you’re cleansing the inside of your body and helping to give a speedy passage to harmful toxins. Being physically active helps the blood stream to distribute fluids throughout the body in an efficient manner that contributes to toxin expulsion. The more you exercise the more you sweat and perspire.
Both sweat and perspiration are ways in which your body gets rid of toxins. This is a natural and healthy way for the body to cleanse itself. Plus it will increase your energy, help you get a better night’s sleep, and it will help you to maintain your ideal weight!
Detox the Natural Way – Get Physical!
When you exercise at a vigorous pace and exert yourself you get thirsty much quicker than you would otherwise. This means you’ll need to drink more water to prevent becoming dehydrated. This helps the process of detoxification to occur. The more water you drink the more you’ll have to use the bathroom and also the more you’ll sweat. Toxins are released naturally when both of these processes take place.
Getting the picture?
Physical activity causes your blood to begin to circulate much more readily through your body. You quicken the pace of it when you exercise as compared to when you are doing less active things in your day. This is a necessity component when it comes to releasing toxins that have built up in fat cells. The toxins become dislodged and leave the body via the blood stream.
In the same way, the circulation of lymph fluid takes place at a faster rate when you exercise in any manner. The more strenuously you exercise the faster it will occur. Lymph fluids are very good at targeting toxins and sending them out of the body in a quick and simple fashion.
The blood is cleansed when you exercise and breathe heavier because carbon dioxide and harmful toxic gases leave the body and you then breathe in fresh oxygen. This new oxygen works to cleanse the blood. With the outer breathes you expel, toxins are released and then with the inner breathes you take in, you’re purifying your lungs and your body as a whole.
It really is a great system if you follow these rules and tips – and none of it is hard when you consider the benefits.
