The Secret Recipe to Successfully Detox Your Child (that many miss out on!)

Many parents want to dive into detox as soon as they know the benefits, so they skip the most important step: DRAINAGE!

Supporting the drainage funnel (liver, kidneys, bowel, skin etc) is crucial and something we must do BEFORE detoxing our child.

Slower is always better. Many things need to be taken into consideration when optimising your child’s ability to get rid of toxins, pathogens and heavy metals. 

The safest way to support your child’s detox pathways is to ensure that these 5 things are prioritised daily:

Moving the body

Movement is a great way to support your child’s drainage pathways. This will allow for a smoother detox process. Jumping on a trampoline, running, playing outside or any physical activity is great to get the lymph going!

Gut & elimination

Optimal drainage also includes healthy bowel movements and elimination. Ensuring your child has at least one bowel movement daily is critical in order to excrete toxins and pathogens. Constipation always needs to be addressed when talking about detox. 

Nutrition

If you don’t have good nutrition you don’t have good cellular detox. Focus on organic wholefoods that are nutrient-dense and rich in gut-healthy fibre. 

Sweating

We know that we can excrete heavy metals and mycotoxins through our sweat, so anything that will get your child sweating is a plus. I love hot Epsom salt baths or infrared saunas. Use infrared saunas mindfully, not more than 5-10 mins max per session.

Clean water

Ensuring clean water (and good amounts of it) is key when helping reduce your child’s toxic load. Unfortunately, our tap water is often contaminated with chemicals, heavy metals, drugs, synthetic hormones and pesticides. Using a good water filter (reverse osmosis) is highly recommended.
