If you feel your body and your liver have been taking too much punishment from bad food, drinking, smoking, and little sleep, maybe you should consider adopting a cleanse diet to clear your body of toxins that will give you long term health risks.
Before you adopt a cleanse diet, you should consult a health specialist or nutritionist. This is especially true if you have a medical condition or are under medication.
In general, if you’re taking medication for a limited period of time, you should probably wait to finish that treatment before considering adopting a cleanse diet. This is because your body might still not be resilient enough or for some cleanse diets include hormones or substances that can interfere with the effectiveness of medication, or vice versa.
In addition, before adopting a cleanse diet, you should research the specific benefits you will get. A cleanse diet that is too general in its promises, for example “you’ll feel better” is very difficult to measure. Moreover, if you don’t see results, there’s no way you can complain or make the specialist be held accountable.
Another good idea is to verify the nutritional value of the cleanse diet. This involves researching the quantities of proteins, minerals, vitamins, fats, fiber, and carbs that the cleanse diet includes. These values are important as they let you check the veracity of a cleanse diet very easily against a nutritional chart.
It also lets you make certain that you’re getting all the nutrients your body needs. Some cleanse diets will include a low number or a total elimination of certain elements, such as fats and carbs. If this is the case, you should ask your health specialist why those elements are missing and how they are going to be replaced.
Finally, if you’re going to follow through a cleanse treatment with a health specialist, you should also get a calendar or schedule of visits and how much it will cost IN ADVANCE. It’s very discouraging to have to interrupt a treatment because you ran out of money in the middle of it or because the therapist just realized that “more sessions are needed.”
You must also ask about the price of any extras, like teas, pills, patches, or similar that may appear later, so as not to have any unpleasant surprises. Following a cleanse treatment with a specialist will always be the most expensive option, but on the other hand, the fact that you’re putting your hard earned money at stake will make you think twice about dropping it halfway.
