The amount of
processed food we take on a daily basis can weaken the immune system and
prevent us from staying strong and healthy. Thus, it is vital that we regularly
detoxify our bodies. Herbal Foods can
help cleanse the body of harmful chemicals. Consuming them during important
meal and snack times enhances the body's natural detoxification processes.
The body undergoes the
heaviest detoxification during the morning hours, between 7 to 11 am. However,
eating a heavy breakfast filled with fatty food puts a halt on the process.
This causes the body to store waste, resulting in the buildup of toxins. Rather
than eating a heavy meal in the morning, it's better to consume light,
high-fiber meals.
Many herbal foods
contain a high amount of fiber that helps sweep waste out of the intestines.
They also contain concentrations of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that
can aid in the removal of toxins and free radicals. Additionally, having a
light herbal morning meal helps break the overnight fast and activate
metabolism without causing sluggishness or jitters a few hours after.
Around the afternoon,
when the need for nourishment tends to kick in before dinnertime, most people
consume unhealthy snacks during breaks, unknowingly increasing their
cholesterol levels. To sate the craving for something sweet or salty without
ill effect, consider herbal snacks made to mimic popular foods. Because of the
natural ingredients they're made with, they can even nourish the body with
added protein, vitamins, and minerals.
Finally, drinking
herbal beverages before bedtime can help raise metabolism and fat oxidation.
Drinking these teas before going to sleep also help reduce bad cholesterol and
the risk of cancer and heart disease. Some teas can even help drinkers fall
asleep easily and feel well-rested when they wake.
