From Detox To Elimination Diets, Skipping Sugar May Be The Best Bet

When it comes to detox diets, we totally get the appeal.

You can’t detox your body. It’s a myth. So how do you get healthy?

Whether it’s cucumbers splashing into water or models sitting smugly next to a pile of vegetables, it’s tough not to be sucked in by the detox industry.

Treat Yourself to a Copper Detox

The medical community has been showing a great deal of interest in the anti-bacterial properties of copper. In today’s article, Sadhguru gives us the yogic perspective on the importance of storing our water well, and how water stored in copper vessels can play a significant role in cleansing our system of various toxins.

What you call as “myself,” what you call as the human structure is essentially the work of a certain “software.” We know today that software means memory. Whether it is the individual human body or the larger cosmic body, essentially, they are made of five elements – earth, water, fire, air and space. All the five elements have a memory of their own. That is the reason they behave the way they are behaving.

Because water has memory, we are very concerned with how we store it.
Today, particularly in the last few years, much experimentation has been done and they have found that water has memory – it remembers everything that it touches. We have always known this in this culture and we have been using this in so many ways. Our grandmothers told us we should not drink water or eat food from just anyone’s hands; we must always receive it from people who love and care for us. In temples, they give you one drop of water, which even a multi-billionaire fights for because you cannot buy that water anywhere. It is water which remembers the divine. This is what theerth is. People want to drink it so that it reminds them of the divinity within them. The same H2O can be poison or it can be the elixir of life, depending upon what kind of memory it carries.

Because water has memory, we are very concerned with how we store it. If you keep water in a copper vessel, preferably overnight or at least for four hours, the water acquires a certain quality from the copper which is very good for your liver in particular and your health and energy in general. If water is being violently pumped and is travelling to your house through many turns in lead or plastic pipes, with all these bends and turns, much negativity happens to the water. But while water has memory, it also has a way of unfolding itself back into its original state. If you just leave this tap water undisturbed for an hour, the negativity will undo itself.

If you’re constantly traveling like me, if your food is not necessarily controlled, minor poisons are always getting into you in various forms. Copper handles those things for you.

How Pawn Stars's Corey Harrison Lost 192 lbs.

At his highest weight, Pawn Stars's Corey Harrison tipped the scale at 402 lbs. But when his doctor put him on preventative diabetes medication back in 2010, the reality star says it was his wake-up call.

"I literally drove straight from the doctor to the lap band center and had the surgery almost immediately," Harrison tells PEOPLE of his 2010 weight loss procedure. "Back then, the surgery was too expensive for my bank account, so I had to pay with four credit cards, but it was something I had to do – I was not going to get diabetes!"

After going through with the gastric band procedure, Harrison, 31, dropped 50 lbs. in the first six weeks post surgery, and lost another 100 within the first year. After starting his slim down, "I could never go back to weighing as much as I did," he says. "It made me realize what I ate, how I ate and what I did to myself. It was a WOW moment."

Now weighing in at 210 lbs., Harrison continues to have his band checked monthly, and leads a much different lifestyle.

"I'm actually excited to go to the gym now. I box 12 rounds a day five days a week," he says. "When I was a teenager I loved snowboarding, but in my 20s I was too big to strap my feet in the boards. Being able to finally touch my toes made me realize I could snowboard again, so I went out and got new gear immediately."

As he slowly continued shrinking over the past three years, Harrison has also inspired his fellow Pawn Stars cast member and longtime friend Austin 'Chumlee' Russell to drop some major weight as well. "It was time for me to get healthy," says Russell. "I started at 320 lbs. and now I'm down to 225. When I first began, I eliminated all processed foods except mustard. Now, 'everything in moderation' is my motto."

The slimmer reality stars say fans of their show, which premieres its spinoff series, Pawnography, tonight on History at 10 p.m. EST, have taken notice.

"When I meet fans, they are always congratulating me on the weight loss," says Harrison. "They actually say, 'You look just like that guy from Pawn Stars, but you are a lot skinnier and better looking than him.' " I say, 'trust me, if I were going to pretend to be someone, it wouldn't be that guy from Pawn Stars.' "
