In normal life, the food people eat passes through the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, small intestine and large intestine, and finally is excreted through the anus. Generally, the whole process can be completed within 12 to 24 hours. This can ensure that the waste does not stay in the intestine for too long and avoid poisoning in the body. However, once fatigue, tension or other physiological reasons lead to symptoms such as metabolic dysfunction and endocrine disorder, human waste will stay in the body for a long time. These residual wastes remain in the colon and begin to rot, producing toxins. These toxins are reabsorbed through the colon and enter different organs through blood circulation.
Toxins in human body can't be excreted, which will lead to multiple system diseases in human body, such as memory loss, fatigue, sallow complexion, constipation, hemorrhoids and endocrine disorders. In this way, it is necessary to remove these wastes that have been stranded in the body for a long time by some means, so as to make the spirit comfortable, increase physical strength and make the face smooth, so as to achieve the purpose of regulating endocrine and restoring metabolic function.
should the human body detoxify by external force or by itself?
The organs that excrete toxins in the human body are mainly the large intestine, skin, lungs, kidneys and other organs. The daily defecation of the human body is the action of expelling toxins, such as taking a bath regularly, cleaning and dredging the skin capillaries, which is also convenient for expelling toxins in the body. However, sometimes the waste in the body accumulates for a long time, and people often have constipation and pore blockage, which affects the discharge of toxins. So people began to explore various methods to help detoxify. Specifically, these methods can be divided into three categories: taking health care drugs, cleaning the large intestine and beauty care.
among many methods, drug detoxification can be regarded as the main way, because compared with other methods, it is more mature and has more obvious effects. It can adsorb, cleanse, decompose and neutralize the toxins in the body, and then excrete the waste through the digestive tract, urinary tract and sweat glands. In contrast, colon cleaning is more direct. It washes the large intestine, washes the toxins attached to the intestinal wall, massages the intestine and accelerates the peristalsis of the colon to restore its metabolic function. Beauty detoxification is easier, mainly focusing on local detoxification. For example, sea bath and mud bath are all about cleaning the skin. For example, Chinese medicine is used to detoxify the face, and its main purpose is to clean the face, so that the toxins gathered on the face can be discharged smoothly, thus making the face rosy and smooth, and playing the role of skin care and beauty.
is detoxification effective?
Whether it's multiple courses of drug detoxification or one-off beauty care, it's a temporary solution rather than a permanent cure, and this kind of therapy may sometimes make people rely on it and lose their functions. In addition, detoxification is expensive and its side effects are also problems that cannot be ignored. At present, "human detoxification" is still difficult to enter the homes of ordinary people. Moreover, "it's a drug with three poisons", even natural drugs, sometimes bring adverse effects to the human body. Direct cleaning of the large intestine may also cause certain damage to the human body. All kinds of detoxification methods have certain pertinence, and everyone's physical condition is significantly different, so only by using a more targeted detoxification method can we achieve better results.
detoxification must not lead to dependence
In the face of numerous detoxification methods, whether taking medicine or washing intestines, regardless of the mentality of the detoxifier, its purpose is to protect health. However, we should also see that some people-aware that they have the above symptoms-feel very scared because businesses hook constipation, acne, pigmentation, obesity, abdominal distension, bad breath, gastrointestinal discomfort, dizziness, shortness of breath, irritability and other phenomena with toxins in the body. They frequently rely on external forces to detoxify. If they don't detoxify for a day, they will have a strong sense of crisis and work inefficiently. Psychologists believe that such people have gone into a misunderstanding and should go to the hospital to consult doctors and receive comprehensive physical and psychological treatment. The director of nephrology in a well-known hospital thinks that generally speaking, the human body does not need detoxification. Because the human body has the function of digestion and metabolism, relying on these functions, the human body can completely excrete the waste in the body, and only by making full use of the metabolism of its own function can it be safe and long-lasting. Of course, those who suffer from metabolic dysfunction and imbalance symptoms due to intense and busy work can adjust and restore the body's function with the help of external forces, but they should avoid dependence. As far as large intestine cleaning is concerned, normal people can only do it twice a year, and excessive use will lead to their own dysfunction.
Detoxification is to assist the human body to discharge wastes. Relying entirely on it will not only bring inconvenience to daily life, but also bring psychological pressure. Whether you want health care or beauty, you should develop good eating habits and have a healthy attitude. Only those who are energetic and cheerful are the healthiest people. Detoxification must not follow the fashion and follow the advertisement.
In recent years, there has been a craze for "detoxification" in society, and women are even more keen on "detoxification", as if "detoxification" equals beauty. It is true that our bodies and the surrounding environment are full of toxins. Unhealthy diet, polluted air, heavy work pressure and lack of rest are all the reasons for the accumulation of toxins in body and mind. However, how can we achieve the goal of removing toxins? Do we really need to use the popular "drug detoxification method"? Actually, it is not, because we have a more natural and safer "detoxification" method. As long as we use it properly, you can be a "drug-free" pretty girl.
body and toxin
in the general impression, poison is very terrible, because it is often associated with words such as "poison" and "drug", so people often talk about poison. Traditional Chinese medicine theory holds that all substances that have adverse effects on human body are collectively called poison. What we are talking about here is the latter.
Adult acne is actually a "detoxification" phenomenon of the body. Many people have passed the peak of acne-after puberty, the acne on their faces has increased. Some people don't worry about acne at all in adolescence, but in their thirties, their faces are covered with acne, which is more difficult to heal and easier to leave marks. In fact, this is the so-called "adult acne". According to China and Japanese medical theory, skin is connected with body, mind and internal organs. Therefore, when toxins in the body cannot be excreted from urine, sweat, defecation and other methods, they will be exposed from the skin.
toxins pollute the intestines. Now, the food we eat in our stomachs contains food additives, residual pesticides, mercury, etc., and these toxins harmful to the body also reach the intestines with food. Originally, there were many protruding villi on the intestinal wall that would absorb nutrients and isolate toxins, but toxins would do harm to these villi. Under the accumulated toxin pollution, the villi of the intestines are covered with scars, and nutrients and toxins cannot be divided and absorbed together, thus increasing the toxins in the body.
The accumulation of toxins comes from the fatigue of the liver. Toxins in food are absorbed by the small intestine and transported to the liver. The liver is the detoxification organ of the body, and it will use a lot of enzymes to neutralize chemicals, food additives, residual pesticides and so on in food. In addition, people with constipation will produce a lot of toxins in the intestine, which will also be sent to the liver for detoxification. However, long-term consumption of food containing a large number of additives and persistent constipation will make the liver in a state of fatigue. If the toxins are not completely removed, they will circulate through the intestine and liver to the duodenum and then be absorbed into the blood. As a result, the blood will become dirty and sticky, affecting the metabolism of the body and skin, and skin problems such as acne, roughness and spots will emerge one by one.
oil contributes to the increase of toxins. It is well known that greasy food will worsen the problem of acne. In addition to stimulating the secretion of sebaceous glands and making acne more serious, oil is also closely related to toxins. Because oil will dissolve toxins in food, such as preservatives, heavy metals, food additives, etc., making it easy to penetrate into body tissues and more difficult to excrete, and the toxins in the body will also increase, making it more difficult to heal skin problems.
the truth about eating chocolate and getting acne. Many people say that eating too much chocolate will lead to acne, but western medicine says this has no medical basis at all. In fact, the main reason why chocolate can cause acne is the sugar wrapped inside. Sugar is an indispensable element in the body, but if you eat too much, it becomes a kind of toxin. It will consume a lot of vitamins b2 and b12, and also hinder the absorption of vitamin C. These vitamins are important elements to maintain healthy skin. Therefore, sugar will hinder the skin from absorbing the nutrients it needs, disrupt the metabolism of the skin, and fall into a state of acne.
psychotoxin-stress. Stress can lead to acne, which sounds incredible. However, studies have found that stress can make the nerve endings secrete a substance, which makes sebaceous glands active and increases oil secretion. Stress will also increase the male hormones that lead to the development of sebaceous glands, and the oil will be secreted more. Over time, it will be oxidized into bad oil, blocking pores, and a large number of free radicals produced in the process will damage cell tissues and worsen acne. Therefore, stress is also a toxin that affects the body.
"Detoxification" can't go wrong
In recent years, health care products named "Detoxification and Beauty" are extremely popular, and many people are scrambling to buy them. Is the "detoxification" health care product really so magical?
In fact, every normal person has the ability to remove all kinds of poisons, such as the liver, the largest detoxification organ, which can decompose toxic substances in the body through a series of biochemical reactions. Human excretion, sweating, breathing, coughing, vomiting, etc. can also excrete metabolic wastes. Traditional Chinese medicine has a famous saying that "healthy qi should be kept inside, and evil should not be done". With strong healthy qi and strong resistance, the human body will resist all kinds of "poison" and naturally excrete it.
it is worth mentioning that if you want to "detoxify", you should look at where the "poison" is. For example, if you have just eaten a poison by mistake, you need to "detoxify" by vomiting or gastric lavage; If you have exogenous fever, you should use sweating to relieve exterior symptoms to clear away heat and toxin; Kidney disease, even uremia, can be removed from the body by dialysis; If you suffer from infectious diseases, "poison" invades into the blood and toxemia or septicemia occurs, you need to use antibiotics. It can be seen that the way of "detoxification" is not just defecation. How to "detoxify" must follow the guidance of doctors and adopt different methods due to illness.
most of the main components of some "detoxification" health products are cathartic drugs containing rhubarb. For those who are often constipated and have gastrointestinal stagnation, they belong to heat syndrome, and diarrhea and catharsis can play a "detoxification" role. However, individual differences make different people have different tolerance to laxatives. Some people may not have diarrhea if they eat 1 grams of rhubarb, while others will have severe diarrhea if they eat 3 grams, and there will be side effects such as abdominal pain, nausea and stomach discomfort. Rhubarb can only be taken for a short time, otherwise it will harm the gastrointestinal tract, affect the digestion and absorption of food, and cause malnutrition and other consequences.
from the perspective of Chinese medicine, women with deficiency of qi and blood have sallow complexion, dry skin, dizziness, fatigue, qi deficiency, laziness in speaking, palpitation and shortness of breath, and need to replenish qi and blood instead of diarrhea, otherwise the deficiency will be even more debilitating. How can they maintain beauty? Therefore, diarrhea can "detoxify" and tonic can also "detoxify".
Middle-aged and elderly people should distinguish between the physical types of deficiency and excess, cold and heat, and the tonic and diarrhea should be based on the physical condition, so they should not follow suit and step into the misunderstanding of "detoxification".
It is said that some cosmetologists can also achieve the function of "lymphatic drainage and detoxification" by using vibrating instruments or manual massage to push up from the soles of their feet. Some experts believe that the lymphatic system is the third circulatory system of the human body except arterial and venous circulation, and some cancer cells, bacteria and foreign bodies that do not easily penetrate the capillary wall are easy to enter the capillary lymphatic system circulation. In fact, taking a hot bath, jogging, swimming, etc. is also conducive to lymphatic reflux, and it is not necessary to use external forces.
the "detoxification" of intestinal lavage should also be treated correctly. Intestinal lavage, also known as intestinal water washing therapy, injects purified water of about 38℃ into the "intestinal lavage machine" to clean the surface of the intestine and excrete all kinds of rotten substances that have been stuck in the intestine for a long time. However, experts believe that the failure to excrete toxins in the body in time is indeed related to the occurrence of some diseases, but these "toxins" are related to the reduction of the function of organs. It cannot be said that if the intestines are washed clean, other diseases will not occur. Moreover, many times of intestinal lavage "detoxification", once it destroys the ecological balance of normal flora in the intestine, will probably become another health hazard.
In fact, as long as a scientific and healthy concept of nutrition is established and the dietary structure is reasonably balanced, it is more practical than simply pursuing taking "detoxification" health care products.
"Eating less" can help detoxify
After people take in nutrients and calories from their diet every day, they will produce various toxic substances through metabolism in their bodies. Only when these toxins are completely excreted can the human body achieve balance and maintain health.
"Eating less" is a natural and safe way to "detoxify". This is because on an empty stomach, the "motilin" in the body-digestive system hormones will be secreted. Its appearance is not to help the digestion of food, but to make intestinal peristalsis hyperactive and quickly excrete food residues. When we are hungry, our stomachs often purr, which proves that intestinal peristalsis becomes active. At this time, the excretion function in the body becomes active, the toxins remaining in the body will be removed, and the blood in the whole body will be restored to cleanliness.
people usually think that eating a lot of things can promote defecation, but they don't understand that "satiety" is one of the important reasons for constipation. After eating less, the burden on the stomach and intestines is reduced, and its functions are fully exerted: it can not only remove excess nutrients and toxins from the body, but also maximize the natural ability of the human body. Specifically, after eating less, the body will mobilize all its strength to fully digest and absorb the food that enters the stomach. This counterattack against hunger has greatly changed the body tissue, and the power of this change has formed the process of physical improvement.
The Institute of Aging of the National Health Research Center of the United States has been conducting research experiments on the relationship between eating less and longevity with monkeys since 15 years ago. They divided 6 monkeys into two groups, one group was full, and the other group was only seven points full. After 15 years, the death rate of monkeys in the group with seven points full is only half of that in the group with full food. The experiment is still going on, but we can believe that this result will also happen to us humans.
Bilubang village in South America, one of the three major longevity townships in the world, is a small village with less than 1, people, but as many as 9 of them are over 1 years old. After investigating the diet of these longevity people, it is found that they actually live a life of eating less and roughing, and the food is basically wheat, corn, potatoes, bananas, grapes and so on.
Mr. Hiroshi Kazuda, a famous Japanese physician, miraculously reborn many patients with difficult diseases with his unique therapy of fasting and eating less. When summing up his practical career for more than half a century, he repeatedly stressed: "Thoroughly abide by the principle of' seven-point fullness' and try to make it a lifelong habit-this is the most important way to keep healthy."
