Full Body Detox: 9 Ways to Rejuvenate Your Body (4 of 5)

Eat foods that contain prebiotics

Another food that is very helpful to the body is prebiotic rich food. This is because it helps to feed good bacteria in the gut — which we are now learning is essential to overall health. The gut is responsible for powering so much of our immune system. And the gut also processes and helps eliminate waste that we intake through food.

Cut back on the salt

Salt is needed to help the body retain necessary amounts of water, but too much of it can be a bad thing. If you retain too much water, and don’t drink enough on a regular basis, this can cause fluid back up. Drinking extra water can help you eliminate the excess water, and waste needed to detox.
