Spring is the perfect time to reset, refresh, and support your body’s natural detoxification pathways. As we transition out of winter, gentle detox practices can help us feel lighter, clearer, and more energized. Here are some ways to support your body’s renewal this season:
- Liver Support: Incorporate bitter greens like dandelion, arugula, and mustard greens, and cabbage as well as liver-supportive herbs like milk thistle and burdock root.
- Stay hydrated: Lemon water, herbal teas, and proper hydration help flush toxins.
- Lymphatic Support: Keep your lymphatic system moving with dry brushing, gentle rebounding (jumping on a mini trampoline), sauna sessions, and increased hydration to flush out toxins.
- Movement & Circulation: Spring is a great time to increase physical activity—try outdoor walks, stretching, or yoga to promote circulation and aid detoxification.
- Gut Health & Digestion: Eating fiber-rich foods, using probiotics when needed and drinking warm lemon water in the morning can support digestion and elimination.
- Spring Cleaning: Detox isn’t just for the body! Clearing clutter in your home can create space for fresh energy and mental clarity, making way for new growth and inspiration.
- Consider IV Therapy for detox support – IV glutathione and vitamin C can help optimize detox pathways.
The Link Between Liver Health & Allergies
If you notice worsening allergies every spring, your liver health may be playing a role. The liver helps process histamine, the compound responsible for allergy symptoms like sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes. If the liver is overburdened with toxins or excess hormones, histamine may not be broken down efficiently, leading to more intense allergy symptoms. A healthy liver means better hormone balance, metabolism, and even allergy relief, making these practices key for overall well-being this season.
