When you detox, your body will do its best to rid those toxins that have been stored in your fatty tissues. The toxins will enter your blood stream looking for a passage out of your body and chances are that you will feel it; this is what is called detox symptoms. Each person has a unique experience when they detox but there are some common symptoms.
- Headaches
- Colds/Flu symptoms
- Coughing
- Gas and Bloating
- Fatigue
- Coated Tongue
- Bad Breath
- Excess ear wax
- Excess nose gunk
- Excess throat sludge
- Body Odor
- Constipation
- Diarrhea
- Acne
- Sleep interruption
- Dizziness
- Moods/irritation
In a way I kind of like feeling and seeing some of the symptoms, it makes me know that the detox is working and it feels like my body is having a proper spring-cleaning! But if you are feeling really bad I suggest that you try to slow your body down by eating boiled vegetables or maybe some quinoa. Make sure to drink a lot of water to help your body to flush out all your toxins!
