I read this dozen ways to detoxify your personal environment from about.com and called it holistic detoxification because it also involves the mind, spirit and emotions. I'm republishing this for the people I care for.
1. Eat a balanced diet that emphasizes plant-based foods and minimizes animal products as well as refined sugars.
2. Boost your immune system by walking or exercising about 30 minutes a day.
3. Avoid air pollution, such as tobacco smoke and industrial fumes, whenever you can.
4. Walk or sit in the sun for at least 20 minutes a day, for a dose of Vitamin D.
5. Clean your indoor environment of toxins, using natural cleaners.
6. Air out any dry-cleaned clothing or fabrics before using them to minimize contact with PCE (Perchloroethylene) and TCE (Trichoroethylene).
7. Use natural insecticides and organic fertilizers in your garden.
8. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water everyday.
9. Cook food in glass, ceramic, iron, or steel containers instead of plastic made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
10. Choose skin products that contain no estrogens, placental components, phtalates, or parabens.
11. Resolve emotional issues, lower your stress levels, and surround yourself with positive, supportive people to make your body a stronger, less hospitable field in which cancer may grow.
12. Set aside regular time to relax, write a journal, meditate, or pray, away from all of your electronic devices. Reconnect with your true self and clear your mind and spirit.
