Tibetan Detox Tip for Exercise Routines
posted by Annie B. Bond Jun 6, 2008 5:00 pm
Adapted from Tibetan Ayurveda by Robert Sachs (Healing Arts Press, 2001).
This Tibetan detox tip, for any exercise that draws a sweat, is so deeply rooted in common sense you wonder why you hadn’t thought of it yourself. You’ll be way ahead of the game in trying to rid your body of all the pollution we live with just by adding these two simple steps to your normal workout.
Rub sesame oil into the skin before exercise.
Following exercise, before showering, rub your skin with a lentil or chickpea flour to pull out the toxins that get attracted into the oil from the exercise. Shower as normal.

Don't let anybody tell you that you are accumulating metals, etc. in your system unless they have verified this by checking your hair or body wastes with a mass spectrometer.
"rub your skin with a lentil or chickpea flour to pull out the toxins that get attracted into the oil from the exercise"- ok, now have that sweaty flour tested to see what is or isn't in it. You also have to test the flour before applicarion - there may very well be pesticide residues or other unwanted toxins in it BEFORE you applied it!
Don't buy any detox products, regimes, etc. unless the seller shows you the biochemistry for the process they claim is taking place in your body. No lab notes? Then not a genuine scientist.
