As feeding your body through healthy food and positive thoughts are important, detoxification is also important to clear out toxic substance from your body and your mind as well.

Detoxification is removal of toxic substance.

Detoxification process ranges from total starvation(fast) to liquid diet(fruit juice) and from food modification to medication (such as laxatives, diuretic, etc..).
Detoxification can happen by gut, kidney, liver and lung through their elimination process.

More than 90% alcohol metabolize from your liver. Mild to moderate alcohol is beneficial to your health but excessive alcohol damages your liver and slows down your detoxification process.

Adequate sleep allows your brain to recharge, reorganize and eliminate toxin which gets accumulated through out day.





You should sleep seven to nine hours to promote good health. During sleep one of protein called beta-amyloid clear out, which is responsible to develop Alzheimer’s diseases. lack of sleep has been shown to elevate brain beta-amyloid level in mice.
