Friends,

I'm overwhelmed! I often make the mistake of trying to go full-speed ahead with diet change, treatment, and detox all at once and it never works. I end up overwhelmed and giving up fairly quickly. I don't want to do that this time. I've learned that I need to take baby steps. That being said, if you had to pick one good EASY way to detox, what would it be? I don't mind two if they are really easy smile Thank you for reading and for the help. Be well.

Epsom salt baths. I use 3 cups and a 32 oz bottle of peroxide. Don’t even remember anymore why I use peroxide.

I started off soaking my feet. I was very toxic and feared doing a whole body soak at first. When I first started the whole body soak, I used 1 cup. I added peroxide later after hearing others used it.

Also, use comfortably warm not hot water.

I was going to say Epsom salt baths, too! Lots of Epsom salts per bath, like a quart per bath. The cheapest good Epsom salt I have found is from seasalt.com.

Other easy things:
- Make sure to move your bowels every day.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Vegetables.
- Stop putting the bad stuff in (including things you breathe in and put on your skin) as much as possible.

I like taking diatomaceous earth, bentonite clay, or activated charcoal.

I like Epsom salt baths the best

I don’t put in as much as most do - just maybe 2 cups, sometimes less.

I also do warm - not hot.
And I add a few drops of essential oils - lavender and marjoram - I read once they’re good for nerve pain.

Exercise also works as a detox for me. I spend a short time on the Elliptical (sp?) with music blaring - — then do some light weights for my biceps and wrists.
Also do some theraband work and a few more random exercises to keep my frozen shoulder at bay and strengthen the atrophied muscles.
Follow it up with an Epson salt bath.

I had completely forgotten about Epsom salt baths! That is super easy, although I don't have a tub, hopefully a foot soak will suffice. I hesitate to get on the elliptical because I don't want to burn calories but my husband likes to remind me that I still need to get exercise even if I am underweight. Maybe I should try that, too. These ideas are great, thank you all for writing, I appreciate it. Be well.

Walking can be good exercise. Go for a walk through the neighborhood or a nearby park or beach.

I do dry skin brushing then the epsom foot bath after for 30 minutes. I was a complete skeptic at first but now a big believer. I don't know how to explain it but I know when I need one and it helps right away. I try to do them at least every other day
