Ah, it's that time of year that Gwyneth Paltrow announces her annual detox. Here are her tips this year, as reprinted by E! News:
1. "Drink water with fresh-squeezed lemon first thing every morning. Counterintuitively, the lemon decreases acidity in the body, which has major benefits for overall health as well as skin."
2. "Even a single session in an infrared sauna will help clear toxins, decrease inflammation, soothe muscles and increase your overall energy. If you can afford one, it's definitely worth the investment; if not, find a gym or a spa that's got one."
3. "Colonics are especially beneficial during a detox when the intestinal villi are busy pulling toxins out of your blood stream and into your intestines to be disposed of. You'll feel lighter and much more energetic, and the process of healing your gut for optimum metabolism will have already begun."
4. "Take baths as often as you can during a detox; ideally do a nice hot one every night. Supercharge it with essential oils and botanical extracts like the ginger, orange and thyme in Jane's brilliant Detox Bath Cube (with which I'm obsessed)."
5. "The glow you get from going clean is undeniable; increase it with a super-thorough exfoliation. For body, start with dry brushing all over, then follow with a detox oil like the one from Organic Pharmacy. For face, there's nothing better than a product that just takes it all off—goop's Instant Facial is made with all five alpha-hydroxy acids plus salicylic acid, so there is no more efficient skin-smoother and glowifier on this earth!"
