The long-awaited summer is already here, but the weight is still an idea more than it should be. And so you want to be in perfect shape and feel good in your skin ... Well, I think it's time for action. And what better motivation than the fact that your swimsuit is a little tight, and the zipper of that much-loved dress barely moves up… Yes, there are hundreds of ways to help you, but since we are not very fond of drastic diets, what's left for starvation (we assume you too), we will focus your attention on a slightly different method that will bring a complete balance in your body - detoxification.
Why exactly detox in the summer?
Of course, each season is suitable for detox, but in the summer the benefits are a little more: our body detoxifies more easily because we consume more raw and light foods; we sweat a lot more, which helps the natural elimination of toxins; our motivation for the upcoming vacation is stronger than anything. As we have already told you, the biorhythms of the body are directly related to nature and its cyclicity. In nature, what happens to live organisms in the summer is a preparation for the hotter days, when it is good to throw away everything unnecessary.
Our body is no exception, striving to get rid of accumulated toxins in the body. Thus, the main meaning of detox in the summer is rooted in the idea of listening to the biorhythms again, and once we have cleansed the liver and gastrointestinal tract once in the spring,
It is no coincidence that ancient Chinese medicine defines fire as a controlling element of the heart and small intestine. The reason lies in the fact that during the warmest months of the year the sun's fire is at its zenith, and the blood is diluted by high temperatures. Thus, the heart in the human body begins to work more calmly, expands its maximum capacity, expels more blood, and from there all the functions of the blood are activated. Haven't you ever wondered why colds pass much easier in the summer than those that strike us in the winter? Well, that's exactly the reason!
Since the maximum heart rate is in the time range between 11 and 13 hours, during these two hours, when the most important organ in our body is working at full speed, it is good to spare it. The thing you can try to make a habit of is to eat a warmly prepared meal at least once a day, and after a meal to stand for 15-20 minutes with your upper torso upright and your legs raised higher to help. of the heart and digestive activity.
The small intestine, also defined as the center of our digestive system, is responsible for the breakdown of each ingested bite and the absorption of all valuable substances in it through the blood to every cell in our body. Its activity is highest between 13 and 15 hours when it needs maximum blood supply to better absorb food at lunch. It is no coincidence that this is the time that people have chosen for an active vacation. You can enhance its functions with foods that contain bitter ingredients, but be sure to avoid sugar, white flour, raw foods, and large amounts of animal fats. Banish and sad mood, feelings of unreasonable concern, excitement, and other negative emotions, especially during meals.
