Common Side Effects From Detoxing Your Body

Body detoxes have become very popular for helping people cleanse their systems, build immunity, lose weight, prevent disease and just feel all-around better.

Unfortunately, many people don’t stick with a daily detox routine, because they experience uncomfortable side effects at the beginning of the detox process.

It’s important to know that any discomfort and unpleasant side effects experienced in the initial stages of a body detox are totally normal, and they are actually a good thing. Why?

Because they are signs that your body is effectively purging itself of toxins and excess waste, which is the goal of the detox in the first place.

Any discomfort or unpleasant side effects you experience when you begin a body detox should subside within 1-2 weeks.

After that, if you continue with daily detox activities, you will start to feel fantastic!


KEEP TRACK & DON’T GO BACK!

I highly recommend that you keep a detailed journal during the first two weeks of your detox to create a written record of how you feel and how your body is responding.

Simply use the “notes” feature on your mobile device, write it down in a notebook or invest in a legit journal.

Then, when you feel tempted to revert back to old habits that will “re-toxify” your body, read the journal and remember the initial detox journey you went through to get yourself in a healthier place.

It’s not worth having to go through it all again!


MOST COMMON SIDE EFFECTS OF A BODY DETOX

Below are the most common side effects you may experience during a body detox.

Remember, these side effects are totally normal, good signs your body is cleaning itself out and they will subside:

  • Headaches.
  • Nausea.
  • Excessive gas and bloating.
  • Frequent urination.
  • Strong smelling urine.
  • Increased (and sometimes uncomfortable) bowel movements.
  • Fatigue, weakness and feeling lethargic.
  • Bad breath and a coating on your tongue.
  • Hunger pangs or cravings.
  • Feeling anxious or irritable.

I know, this doesn’t sound like much fun. Just know the potential short-term discomfort is 100% worth the health benefits you will experience in the long run through daily detox activities. Click here to read all about the long-term benefits.

Cheers to improving your health by detoxing your body!
