Read more about why you should detox, when to do it, short-term vs. long-term detoxes, and which one we prefer below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Signs You Need a Detox<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A detox could be just the thing to help you regain your energy and approach life with renewed zest &#8212; but you might not realize it. Listen to us, though, when we say that feeling sluggish, tired, and bloated is not just a side effect of getting older. Some of the warning signs you need a detox include\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feeling tired even after a full night\u2019s sleep<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bloating or fluid retention<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive sweating<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Problem skin (acne, rosacea, dry skin)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insomnia<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Binge eating\/cravings<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, we also recommend a detox be performed alongside amalgam removal. If you\u2019re having your silver fillings replaced for white ones, discuss the need to detox and fully cleanse your body of harmful chemicals with Dr. Thomas. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try the Chlorella Cocktail<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a number of ways to detox, and after you get started, you may want to try out a few different approaches until you find the one you like. As you\u2019re starting out, Dr. Thomas recommends the chlorella cocktail. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ingredients:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 T powdered chlorella<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 T fish oil<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 caps freeze-dried garlic<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 drops cilantro liquid<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hand full of fruit (your choice)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to choose organic fruit, and wash your hands fully before preparing your cocktail. Wash all the fruit, toss in a blender, and enjoy once a day for one to two weeks. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Long-Term Detoxing<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you complete the short-term detox, try adopting some longer-term detox principles to keep your body cleaner for a lifetime to come. Rather than being something you do every so often to jumpstart your health, detoxing can become a lifestyle &#8212; with the short-term detox helping to clean your body when you really need it. Some of the things you will want to consider as you embark on your new, cleaner lifestyle include\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eating organically-grown produce and meat (if you eat meat)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoiding gluten if you are sensitive to it<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drinking plenty of water (making most of your daily beverages water, and sipping frequently throughout the day)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoiding alcohol and tobacco (staying away from secondhand smoke, too)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cutting out added sugars<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Developing a yoga and\/or meditation practice<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Come See Us at Enclave Dental!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you detox, remember that your oral health is a big contributor to your overall wellbeing.
