How to reduce stress with a deep detox
Anxiety and Its Causes
Anxiety is a state of contraction generated by negative emotions and thoughts, such as fear, apprehension, constant worry, distrust, disappointment, and sadness. All these negative emotions are part of our human condition and, when prolonged in time, can wreak havoc.
What Happens at a Biochemical Level
With chronic stress, the sympathetic system is activated, and stress hormones “catecholamines” such as cortisol, adrenaline, noradrenaline, and epinephrine are released. Inflammatory cytokines and histamine are activated, leading to low-grade acidosis, weakened immune system, and inflammation, affecting the body and the hepatodigestive system.
The importance of the digestive system
Today, we understand the connection between the gut, brain, and liver, and how they impact on positive or negative emotions. The gut is filled with neurons (the second brain) and connects with the brain via the Vagus nerve. Neurotransmitters of happiness like serotonin (90% of which depends on the intestinal microbiota) is generated in the gut.
The liver is also a fundamental organ that plays a crucial role in our mood, just as our mood also directly influences it. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the liver harbors our most spiritual part, the “anima,” and when it´s affected by negative emotions such as anger, resentment, and constant worry, it eventually becomes ill.
So, how can we fighy against anxiety, lower cortisol level, and increase serotonin naturally and safely? I suggest detoxifying the colon/gut and liver, here’s how:
Take care of your gut
It’s clear that a clean colon/gut, free of impurities and toxins, with a healthy intestinal microbiota and balanced pH, not only impacts our digestive health and immunity but also is essential to feel good and have a peaceful mind.
To achieve this, I suggest cleansing the colon and then replenish it with friendly bacteria. Try to eliminate acidic foods such as sugar, dairy, red meat, and refined flours as they alter the gut micro flora, causing inflammation, and leading to constipation. Instead, add lots of alkalizing foods rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and prebiotics that feed the friendly bacteria, such as green leafy vegetables, vegetables, and seasonal fruits.
With Phlush, a gentle osmotic laxative, you can cleanse your gut gently while respecting its pH. It helps get rid of excess mucus and toxins while promoting the regeneration of the gastric mucosa. And if you combine it with colon hydrotherapy, the detoxifying success is assured.
Add fiber like Psyllium , which increases the size of the stools, fights against constipation and diarrhea. It´s like a brush that sweeps out all the unnecessary elements present in the gut line.
And to complete the process, feed your friendly bacteria by taking vegan kéfir as this will add probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics.
Detoxify Your Liver
It’s been clear that when there is no liver inflammation and it´s clean, not only do we have good digestion, but emotionally we feel much better and calmer. With Hephatic Care, a natural supplement in liquid form specially designed to cleanse, regenerate, and maintain the liver’s pH balance, you can achieve this. It acts upon the two liver Detox phases, providing overall well-being.
In summary, when you detoxify yourself with our new Detox 30 Pack, not only does your general health and well being improve, but your mood improves as well, you feel more at peace and mentally calm. Cortisol decreases, and dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins increase.
