Detoxing Using Natural Solutions

By: Deanna Snyder, RN Monday October 6, 2025 comments Tags: #DeannaSnyder, #BeWellEssentials, #dōTERRA , #detox, #Toxins

 

 

Detoxification, or detox, has been top of mind for those individuals seeking optimal wellness. This process helps the body remove toxins that build up over time due to poor diet, lifestyle choices, and environmental pollutants.  Daily exposure is inevitable and can gradually burden your natural detoxification systems - especially the liver, kidneys and digestive tract.

 

According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), more than 1,400 chemicals and chemical groups are known or likely carcinogens. The Global Healing Center states it is not uncommon for the human body to come in contact with as many as 2.1 million toxins every day. Yikes!  No wonder why we feel sluggish and tired, bloated, constipated, have brain fog, acne or other skin issues, can’t release unwanted weight, and get sick easily. 

 

Having a better understanding of how to support your body naturally can empower you to make better choices for your overall health and well-being.

 

Daily Toxin Exposures Include (but not limited to)...

  • Corn and soybean products are heavily sprayed with glyphosate
  • Canned foods (BPA lining)
  • Cleaning products
  • Perfume & colognes
  • Makeup
  • Personal care products
  • Mattresses
  • Air fresheners and candles
  • Plastic food containers
  • Plastic water bottles
  • Fabric softeners
  • Non-stick cookware
  • Insect spray
  • Dry-cleaned clothes
  • Mercury dental amalgams

 

Common Detox Options:

Diet: Avoid processed foods, sugar, caffeinated beverages, and alcohol. A nutrient-dense diet provides the foundational support for liver enzymes.

 

Fasting: Intermittent fasting can give your digestive system a break and help the body eliminate toxins. During your “eating time”, consume nutrient dense foods to optimize your intake.  Water fasts are also supportive when you only drink water for a period of time.

 

Hydration: Drinking plenty of water will help flush out toxins through your urine,

 

Exercise: Regular physical activity promotes circulation and sweating which helps the body eliminate toxins.

 

Essential Oils:  Add citrus essential oils such as Lemon, Lime and Orange to your water.  They have a gentle detox affect on the liver.  Remember to place your essential oils in a glass, stainless or ceramic container, as essential oils will break down plastic.  A great way to illustrate this is to drop one or two drops of lemon essential oil on styrofoam and watch it desolve! 

 

Sleep: Proper sleep allows the body time to repair and detoxify.

 

Supplementation: Herbal compounds support natural detoxification pathways. The kidneys, liver and digestive tract are highly efficient at processing and eliminating harmful toxins.

Use Caution:

Detoxification can offer many benefits, it is extremely important to approach it with care.  Extreme detox methods can be harmful and should be avoided.  I can speak from experience as I was under the care of a medical professional and the protocol I was given unleashed havoc in my body.  It was not a pleasant experience.  Always consult a healthcare professional and most of all, listen to your body. Simple swaps and added support can help your body thrive!
