Most Natural Way to Clean Out Your System

Toxins can enter the body externally and internally. Environmental pollution, cigarette smoking and even constipation can lead to a high toxin level in the system, which will increase the amount of harmful free radicals in the body. While free radicals are formed naturally, they are normally balanced out by antioxidants; however, if free-radical production is too large or if antioxidants are not present harmful damage will occur. Natural cleansing will reduce the amount of free radicals and increase the level of antioxidants without adding synthetic chemicals to the system.

Garlic Supplements

• The two main active ingredients in garlic are diallyl sulphides and allicin. These ingredients contain properties that work as an effective antibiotic as well as antioxidant. (Allicin is responsible for the strong odor garlic releases when it is chopped or diced.) By increasing the amount of garlic in your system you introduce a large amount of antioxidants into your body, which fight off free radicals and prevent any damage they could cause. While cooking with garlic is an excellent way to introduce this herb into the system, consuming a supplement form will provide all of the medicinal benefits without causing bad breath.

  Consume two 200-milligram garlic tablets three times per day with six ounces of water. Before taking this supplement, speak with your physician to ensure its safety, especially if you're on other medications.

Milk Thistle

• Milk thistle is mainly used as a liver-cleansing agent for the flavonoid silymarin. Silymarin is an effective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant that protects the liver from toxins and promotes healthy liver-cell reproduction. Milk thistle allows the liver to cleanse toxins from excessive alcohol consumption as well as relieve inflammation from such conditions as hepatitis.

  Consume 300 milligrams of dried-milk-thistle capsules with six ounces of water three times per day. Speak with your doctor prior to beginning this cleansing treatment, especially if you have serious medical conditions or are taking numerous medications.

Dandelion

• The properties within dandelion promote the production of bile from the gallbladder and liver. Bile works with the intestines to stimulate the colon and when its production is increased, it works as a natural laxative to remove fecal matter from the colon and reduce the amount of toxins being re-released into the system due to constipation. Other compounds within dandelion include vitamin C, potassium and numerous enzymes that stimulate the cleansing organs of the body, i.e. the kidneys and liver.

  Take 500 milligrams of dried-dandelion-extract tablets two times per day with six ounces of water. If you are currently taking antibiotics or antacids consult your physician before consuming dandelion as negative side effects can occur.
