4. Reduce your exposure to toxins. On any given day, we can be exposed to hundreds of toxins including car exhaust, BPA from canned foods, bottled water or cash register receipts. Unfortunately, pesticides and added chemicals in foods, as well as cleaning and personal care products also add toxins to our lives. Over time, they can accumulate in our fat cells, promote inflammation and may play a role in obesity and metabolic syndrome.
To minimize your exposure to toxins, avoid canned or processed foods and bottled water. Purchase organic produce, meats, and dairy products whenever possible and move towards using more natural or organically made soaps, shampoos, moisturizers and makeup. Also, consider periodically carrying out a metabolic detox to remove toxins at the cellular level.
