I was surfing through my FAVORITE eco-friendly website (GreenIsSexy.Org) and I found a really cool article I wanted to share with you guys. In it, it says that if your looking for an organic way to detox yourself (or if you had too many drinks last night and need a break) add green wasabi to your hot bath. For those of you that don't know what wasabi is, is its a really spicy member of the cabbage family that is often added to soy sauce to dunk your sushi in. It is known as Japanese Horseradish. The root of wasabi is what is actually made into well, wasabi. It is so spicy that when you eat just a tad bit of it, it opens up nasal passages and burns the tongue. No worries though, you will not actually be eating it. You actually take about a teaspoon (or more depending on your bathtub size) and run it under the bath water. Now, your probably asking what does wasabi have to do with detoxing??? Well, when you add it to your bath it increases your blood circulation through your organs and promotes oxygenation of your body tissues, which help clear your cells from waste. Just make sure when you are soaking in the bath that you remember to drink plenty of water! If you want to check out the actual article click here!
