— KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN
Can you temporarily abstain from sex? Unthinkable? Caffeine and exercise may be easier to give up than sex. What many of us consider unthinkable (giving up sex), the stunning Kourtney Kardashian and her partner Travis Barker have recently done so. And there are many more, who have done it for the sake of the ‘Panchakarma cleanse’, an ancient ayurvedic approach to detoxing the body that appears to be gaining popularity in the west.
To practise Panchakarma, the couple temporarily abstained from sex, exercise, and caffeine. The reality star, 43, opened up about her IVF journey in a recent episode of The Kardashians, noting that she’s trying a new approach — the Panchakarma cleanse — to expanding the family.
“Our last egg retrieval was not successful, so the new thing that we’re going to be trying is a Panchakarma cleanse, which is Ayurvedic. It’s like 3,000 years old, which will get all of the toxins that are like deep within our tissue out of our bodies,” she confesses.
WHAT IS PANCHAKARMA CLEANSE AND HOW DOES IT WORK
“Panchkarma, or detoxification and healing in Ayurveda, has been practised for over 5000 years and is part of ancient medical teachings. Panchakarma is derived from two Sanskrit words: pancha means five and Karma means action. And it is a detoxification process that cleanses the body of toxins, diseases, and environmental pollution and restores health,” says Dr. Ravinder Singh from Atmantan Wellness Center.
Panchakarma treatments work on the premise that the body has a natural capacity to process and remove toxins from the system. “This is important because it forms the foundation of your journey towards good health or a cleansed body. More importantly, it restores the body to a cleaner slate possible, free of toxins and naturally eliminating and further imbalances,” says Dr Ravinder.
HELPS TREAT VARIETY OF AILMENTS
Regular panchakarma detox ensures that the person’s system is in good working order and that toxins are not accumulating in the body.
