Favorite Hang Over Cures

02/09/2011 17:58:00

We all have those days, you wake up from a night out, not feeling to great. Luckily there are some natural ways to prevent the morning hangover.

First off, if you know you're planning on going out, start drinking lots of water early in the day. This way your body stays well hydrated throughout the day and into the evening. This will also help your body process the alcohol better.

Eat a hearty dinner. Make sure not to over indulge before your drink. This way your body has less to digest!

Don't mix! I know I personally have a bad habit of mixing. Try to stick to one type of alcohol, mixing can be a deadly combo.

Emergency- The Vitamin C revitalizer! It gives you a dose of vitamin C, and a little energy too!

Wheat Grass shot. This is my favorite hangover cure. It really brings you back to life and gives you back some of those nutrients that were lost.

Eat a protein filled breakfast. Also try to avoid drinking coffee, this will dehydrate the body.

If you would like to post your hangover tips please feel free to share.

Till next time....

What is Toxic Buildup?

Toxic Build up

First off what exactly are toxins?

Toxins are chemical substances, that are interfering with the body's own natural, chemical process.Toxins are unfortunately everywhere.They are in the products we use, the food we eat and the water we drink. Fortunately we can do a lot of things to prevent these toxins from building up in our bodies!

1.Eating a healthy diet is one of the major ways we help our body to fight off toxic build up and disease. Avoiding eating over-processed food and especially fast food. We are what we eat!

2.Overeating and over drinking put major stress on the body's digestive system. If you tend to get hungry in between meals try drinking a cup of tea or a glass of water. One of my favorite healthy snacks is an apple with a 1/2 tablespoon of almond butter.

3. Eating late prohibits us from getting a healthy night of sleep. When we sleep, the body uses that time to rebuild and restore itself. If we are falling a sleep with a full stomach, the body will have to use some of that time digesting. Notice if you eat late, you may tend to wake up feeling tired and disoriented.

4.WATER, WATER, WATER! Most of us are chronically dehydrated, due to the foods we eat and the lack of water we drink. Water cleanses the inside and outside of the body, helping to aide the body release toxins. When the body is not receiving enough water, toxins tend to stagnate. So drink as much water as you can! If you have trouble drinking water itself try non-caffeinated herbal tea!

5. Stress effects every cell and tissue in our body. Stress can break down the immune system as well as major organs. Stress itself is toxic to the body and unfortunately we live in a very high stress society. What we can do to minimize the stress is take time for ourselves. Even if it's a moment out of the day, make that time. Meditation is a great way to connect with the body and block out all, that may be causing stress. Stay tuned for my blog on simple meditation techniques that anyone can do!

Remember it's not what we do some of the time, it's what we do MOST of the time that counts.
