Winter is an excellent time to detox your body

(21/10/2009)

Winter is an excellent time to detox your body - for a new start. Modern lifestyles of fatty foods, low nutrient levels and stress can ‘clog up’ vital organs like the liver, stomach and colon. The stresses, food and lack of exercise over the Christmas season can often add to this.

A ‘clogged up’ liver, stomach and colon reduces the body’s ability to absorb essential nutrients and dramatically diminishes the benefit of other healthy initiatives we may take, such as exercise.

A healthy colon is the starting point for a good health programme. Amazingly, 1 in 4 people have digestive issues resulting from poor colon health and medical evidence has proved that colon malfunction is responsible for over 80% of diseases.

Psyllium is a natural bulk-forming fibre compound, which helps in the removal of toxin build up in the colon. It swells when in contact with water – forming a bulk, which presses on the walls of the digestive system, inducing the muscles to contract and draw old material out of your system. Psyllium also encourages the growth of healthy bacteria in the digestive system.

Vitamin C is vital for detoxing and is a key nutritional antioxidant – protecting the body from excess free radical damage, and is important for the production of collagen. It protects against stress – ensuring healthy cartilage, joints, skin and blood vessels – and helps maintain a healthy immune system – by neutralising pollutants, encouraging anti-body production and helping the absorption of nutrients.

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) helps process nutrients into forms of energy that the body can use. It is particularly useful with the absorption of iron and vitamin B6, enhancing the body’s absorption of vitamin C.

FibreDetox™ from BetterYou™ is a 100% herbal formulation designed to cleanse the body from the build-up of harmful toxins that slow it down. It contains psyllium husk, Vitamin C and Riboflavin, as well as calcium, magnesium and potassium, which are vital to a healthy functioning body – enhancing skeleton, tissue and muscle health. Taken with water, it makes a great tasting apple flavoured drink.

It is a completely safe, natural, gentle and non-addictive natural detox and cleanser, which helps to regulate bowel movements and remove bloatedness. This improves sleep quality and increases energy levels. It allows the body to better absorb nutrients and minerals from food and helps lower cholesterol. It also improves skin health and look.

“I took FibreDetox™ last weekend and couldn’t believe how much more alive I felt. My bloatedness had gone, my sleep was better and my energy levels have gone through the roof! I even lost 2lbs over the weekend” says Louise Kidney of Retford.
