PURIFICATION AND DETOXIFICATION

The liver is the organ that carries out most of the body's metabolic functions, including the very important activities of eliminating unnecessary or foreign substances. The purification of our organism passes through this large gland.

Why is purification and detoxification important? An incorrect lifestyle, bad habits such as the intake of alcohol and drugs put a strain on the regular functioning of the liver, which is why it is essential to purify the liver with a detox action that gives the body the right sprint. In addition to the liver, the great purifiers of our body are the kidneys, which incessantly filter away toxins and eliminate them through urine. But that's not all: the kidneys also regulate the delicate water-salt balance, therefore water retention. Swollen legs and ankles are only the most obvious manifestation of this phenomenon.

What activities can help with detox action? A diet with a reduced glycemic index and not excessively rich in sodium, with the correct energy intake, absence of alcohol and with reduced consumption of fats and refined foods. Exercise is also a great help.
