Initial worsening during a detox treatment? 5 symptoms and remedies
The terms detoxification, relief, and detox are on everyone's lips these days. Many people use the beginning of the year to free themselves of unnecessary baggage and start the year carefree. And at YLUMI, too, January is all about relief and lightness . But what if a detox program doesn't go quite as smoothly as planned? Initial worsening during a detox program is common and can quickly ruin the fun. Today, we'd like to show you the 10 most common symptoms and what you can do to quickly feel fit and vital again.
INITIAL WORSENESS: 5 SYMPTOMS AND WHAT HELPS
The feeling after a detoxification treatment is wonderful – at best, we feel light and full of energy. However, in isolated cases, there may also be so-called "initial worsening" or initial reactions, a somewhat unpleasant but actually positive process because something is happening in the body. However, the symptoms shouldn't last too long and should gradually subside during the treatment. With our tips and tricks, you can quickly get the symptoms under control and optimally support your body in relieving stress:
HEADACHE
Probably the most common and well-known side effect of a detox diet is headaches. They occur when we deprive the body of accustomed foods. Headaches from caffeine withdrawal are particularly common. The reason for this is the lowered blood pressure and the resulting dilation of blood vessels in the head.
This helps:
Plenty of exercise in the fresh air boosts blood pressure and ensures that annoying headaches disappear quickly. You should also remember to drink plenty of fluids – at least 1.5 liters of water or fruit/herbal tea is considered ideal.
SKIN IMPURITIES
Perhaps the most bothersome symptom of the initial worsening of a detoxification regimen is skin blemishes. Especially at the beginning of a detoxification regimen, pimples often appear. In principle, this is a good thing, as it's a sign that the body is working.
This helps:
Our BEAUTY X HYALURONIC ACID CAPSULES support your skin on all levels and let you glow from within. The natural vitamin C from our ORGANIC IMMUNE CAPSULES also works wonders for your skin's health. You can also mix a cleansing face mask with healing clay and our PURIFY CAPSULES or COCO BEAUTY SPARKLE .
It is also important to always drink enough fluids , both when taking YLUMI (1 large glass of lukewarm water) and throughout the day.
FATIGUE
Reducing calories may cause your body to react with fatigue and tiredness. But don't worry: This is completely normal.
This helps:
Give yourself more rest than usual. A detox diet is hard work for the body, and you can best support it by giving it what it needs. Of course, you shouldn't spend the whole day in bed. Our ENERGY CAPSULES are a wonderful way to get going in the morning and as a coffee substitute. Like all our products, they are 100% natural and free from preservatives and additives. This makes them the perfect daily companion, even during a detox diet.
INDIGESTION
During a detox diet, you consume a lot of fiber in the form of fresh vegetable and fruit juices, raw vegetables, and whole grains. This can initially overwhelm your stomach and intestines.
This helps:
To restore balance to your gut microbiome, we recommend taking our Belly Beauty Capsules alongside your diet. These are best taken in the evening before bedtime with a glass of lukewarm water.
Pssst: These also have a positive effect on the appearance of your skin!
Cravings
During a detox, our body goes through a kind of withdrawal. Especially if you've previously consumed a lot of sugar, caffeine, or similar foods, you'll have to get used to not consuming these foods regularly, especially at the beginning. Don't worry: The cravings will only bother you during the first few days of your detox.
This helps:
Always keep healthy snacks like fruit or nuts, as well as a pot of herbal or fruit tea, on hand. If you're on a radical fast where you're only allowed to consume juices or broth, distraction can also be a solution. Go for a walk, talk to loved ones on the phone, or read your favorite book—do anything that takes your mind off things.
