The holiday season offers several occasions for people to indulge in their favorite foods and drinks with loved ones. Many people end up doing a detox after the festivities have ended to start the new year on a fresh page. However, taking the steps to detox before the holiday season may be more effective.

The Benefits of a Pre-Holiday Detox

From Halloween candy to pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving and Christmas  gingerbread, the fall and winter seasons are full of sweet temptations. Sugar causes weight gain, and it’s shown to have addictive properties. To more easily resist these treats, cleanse and detox yourself of excess sugars before you’re given holiday candies and cookies.

A cleanse can also spur your digestion and get it in top shape for what’s to come at large holiday dinners. For example, probiotics are an essential addition to a pre-holiday diet because they improve gut health, making it easier for your body to process what you eat.

First Steps for Your Detox

detoxYou can start cleansing before the holidays by cutting out soda, alcohol, and sugary fruit juices. Replace these beverages with water that’s plain or infused with mint, which supports digestive function. You can also improve your diet by cutting extra fats and sugars, consuming meals with whole grains, vegetables, and lean proteins.

After a few weeks of this regimen, see a professional for a pre-holiday colon cleanse to remove residual waste from the intestines and clear remaining toxins from the system. After the treatment, you’ll feel refreshed and may be more motivated to maintain the results during the holiday season.
