Nearly every part of your body is involved in excreting waste. From egetion at the cellular level to multi-organ systems, you body expends a considerable amount of energy ridding itself of waste that will otherwise build up and result in any number of health concerns. Keep this vital system in top order by exercising its major organs: the liver, the sweat glands, and the kidneys.
Instructions
1. Exercise your sweat glands. Your sweat glands do much more than just cool you down. Your skin is, in fact, an important organ (and your body's largest) of the excretory system. Excess water, salt, urea and other waste materials find their way out of your body through your sweat glands.
To keep this important organ functioning optimally, encourage your sweat glands to open and excrete waste and water. One way to do this is through exercise: begin or work your way up to an exercise regimen that involves at least 30 minutes of high-impact aerobics at least four times a week. This will not only exercise your sweat glands, but your entire excretory system.
If your doctor recommends against high-impact aerobics, sit in the sauna at your local health spa for half an hour a few times a week to open the sweat glands and exercise the excretory system.
2. Exercise your liver. Your liver's most important excretory function is filtering waste and acid from your blood. Visceral Manipulation teaches that this excretory organ is best exercised by physically manipulating it to encourage it to function optimally.
To do this, lie on your left side and lightly strike your liver with your right fist 20 times. Do these percussion exercises daily for six weeks, gradually increasing the reps to 100 daily. Six weeks of this exercise should be sufficient, but liver percussion can be continued as long as desired.
3. Exercise your kidneys. Your kidneys are one of the most important organs of your urinary system, which is responsible for ridding the body of urea and other waste. A clogged or weakened urinary system can lead to urinary tract infections, kidney stones or other urological disorders.
The best way to exercise your urinary system is to make it work harder by flushing it with water by drinking 4 oz. of water every 20 minutes. This flush should be continued for a minimum of six weeks but up to 12 and can be conducted once to twice a year depending on the toxicity of your diet or medication.
