Want glowing skin? 5 tips that will change your skin

In case you didn’t know, our skin is our biggest detox organ. Seriously!

So whatever happens on our skin’s surface is a reflection of what’s going on inside your body.

That’s why when you use medicated products to target acne, psoriasis, eczema, rosacea and loads of other skin conditions, it works for a short period of time and then generally re-occurs if you don’t do anything to deal with the root problem.

Generally this has to do with your body’s ability to detox – which means that your beautiful hardworking liver is usually being overburdened with more toxins that it can handle.

Interesting fact! After the skin, the liver is the biggest solid organ in the body, when you consider that, the connection between the two seems quite obvious. While the liver plays more than 500 roles in the body, such as bile production, helping your blood clot, making glucose (sugar) that your body can use for energy and vitamin and mineral storage, one of the most important jobs it plays is to break down alcohol and other toxins, such as pesticides, herbicides, medications, heavy metals and other external pollutants.

Unfortunately, in today’s day and age it can be pretty easy to overload the liver with way too many toxins: external pollution from cars, and factories, off gassing in your home and office from furniture, paints, carpets, eating fruits and vegetables that have been sprayed with pesticides, eating meats from unhealthy animals, and sadly lots more.

However, the point is not to get depressed and frustrated, the point is just to be conscious of what we’re exposed to and one, try to limit our exposure as much as possible and two, help the body detox.

So how do we help our liver out and help the body detox, so you can have glowing skin? Here’s some simple tips on where to start:

  1. Include as much vegetables and fruits in our diet as possible. Examples: broccoli, kale, spinach, wild blueberries, which all contain powerful antioxidants, such as vitamin C. These fruits and veggies also contain some great fiber content to keep your gut healthy!
  2. Start the day off with a tall glass of room temperature water and the juice of a freshly squeezed lemon. Fresh lemon is a great way to hydrate and purify the body before you can start adding food to your body.
  3. Reduce your intake of animal fats (including eggs and dairy)  for some time to allow the liver to detox. This is especially important if you aren’t eating organic or grass fed meats.
  4. Add Barley Grass Juice Powder and Hawaiian Spirulina to a fruit smoothie daily. These 2 supplements work beautifully together to detox the body of heavy metals and other toxins, as well as help alkaline the body.
  5. Limit grains, especially gluten while you are detoxing, so you can leave lots of room for nutrient dense and vitamin rich foods

If your eating habits have been unhealthy for quite some time and all of the above seems overwhelming, start with one change. Implementing just one of the changes above will get you on the right path to better health and improving your skin!

Much love,

KARSTEN DICKIE

Hey BBBC family! My name is Karsten Dickie and I am a coach at King West Best Body Bootcamp.

Growing up I was very involved in sports. I played competitive volleyball, basketball and hockey. I was always fascinated with how the body works, nutrition, strength training and anything that involved athletics. Applying my knowledge I noticed improvement of my health, energy and body transformation which then had me hooked on weight training. That’s when I knew I wanted to help impact people’s lives and share my knowledge about exercise, mobility and nutrition to help achieve their goals.

I received my diploma from Algonquin College for Fitness & Health Promotion and I have been doing group training for six years now. Additionally, I’ve trained hockey teams, volleyball teams, large event groups, and one-on-one training.

I’m passionate about enhancing the health, fitness and overall well-being of clients. With my skills and knowledge, I help clients achieve their goals in and out of the gym.

Outside of training I like to do yoga, read, play team sports, and spend time with my friends and family.

My journey in fitness and health began about 15 years ago. Before that, like many of you I struggled with yo-yo dieting, and doing countless hours of cardio just to stay looking slim. Boy I wish I could talk some sense into my past self! But health is a journey and I am so grateful for all of my experiences, which have shaped what I have to offer our members today.
Over the years I have experienced first hand the life changing benefits of incorporating the right kind of exercise into my life. That motivated me to become a personal trainer 15 years ago, and it still continues to motivate me today. I want everyone to be able to to experience what exercise can do for their well being, self confidence and physique.
I used to struggle with my nutrition in a big way, so I completely empathize with you, if this is the hardest part for you when it comes to seeing long term change. I once struggled with eating disorders, followed by any years of a very negative relationship to food, even during my initial years as a personal trainer.

It occurred to me one day that I could not help my clients make changes and make better choices, without first focusing on myself. It was through completing my Holistic Lifestyle Coach Certification that I was able to change my relationship to food and be able to genuinely help clients get closer to their goals.

My increasing passion for nutrition and health led me to become certified as a Health Coach. As a health coach, I am able to help my clients delve deeper into your relationship with food and their health. What lies beneath our patterns and habits is fascinating and when you can tap into that it can have an incredibly powerful impact on our lives, and bring about real change!

These days I leave most of the bootcamp training to our awesome trainers, but I continue to share my passion for nutrition and fitness in our private member facebook group and work on our ever evolving member offerings.

My other passion? I am the luckiest mom to a 9-year-old boy. He keeps me on my toes and I must admit has helped me grow in ways I never thought possible. Together with hubby Roger Nahas, we like to spend plenty of time outdoors, along with the latest family hobby – board games.

When I get me time, I like to do yoga, read, cook, and spend time in nature.

I look forward to having you join us!

ROGER NAHAS

My journey in fitness and nutrition is a little different than most. You see, I’m a former fat kid! The kid who was a total introvert! I was always the guy who was too embarrassed to take his shirt off at the beach! But I remember the day everything changed for me – I looked in the mirror and wasn’t happy with what I saw. I made the decision to change my body and my life. It was 1999 and I took a before pic and measurements and body fat and I entered the Body for Life Challenge. Over the next 90 days, I completely changed my eating habits, and worked out regularly. I actually was awarded the Canadian Grand Champion for my age category!

I was no longer the fat kid. I looked forward to getting to a beach so I could take my shirt off and I became more outgoing and fun! After seeing the difference it made in my life I decided that I wanted to dedicate my life to helping people realize the amazing benefits of optimal health and fitness.

I started out as most trainers do in your typical gym. After years of working in a gym setting, I was getting disillusioned with how Big Box Gyms operated. I wanted to train people functionally and to make their bodies strong in the movements they used in the real word. I wanted to make working with a highly trained instructor more affordable, and I wanted to make fitness fun because let’s face it; if you are having a blast, it makes it that much easier to stick to it. The result was the launching of Best Body . I have to tell you that although I looked great in the after pic above, the food and exercise plans I followed to get that after pic, hurt me in the long run. It made me look good from the outside but my body was breaking down on the inside. The way I was working out and what I thought was healthy eating was in fact hurting me in the long run. I was over training, taking longer to recover from my workouts, I tore my rotator cuff and had gut issues. Nothing I could do was helping and then I was introduced to a C.H.E.K Holistic Lifestyle Coach who helped me. Turns out I was stressing my body beyond repair and then giving it food that wasn’t helping but was actually stressing my body even more. He made me look at my body and the food I put into it in a totally different way.

That lead me to complete my certification as a C.H.E.K Holistic Lifestyle Coach and we pass that knowledge on and encourage holistic nutrition to our members.

In addition to running the day-to-day operations of Best Body Bootcamp, I also work with individual clients doing fitness training as well as holistic nutrition and lifestyle coaching.

When I’ve got a bit of free time, I spend as much of it as possible with my wife and son, I bike year round, play hockey, practice Tai Chi daily, read & take courses.

I hope to see you soon so we can transform your body and life!
