It's so important to detox the body every now and then. The benefits include clearing out the gut by de-bloating the stomach.

.

This in turn increases energy levels, leading to healthier skin and hair, aids internal organs to work better resulting in weight loss, anti-cellulite, and an overall improvement in the immune system by healing constipation and leaky gut, reducing inflammation - giving you a better feeling of well-being.

We don't drive our car without getting it serviced every year, and when we do it runs better. The same should be done for our bodies. How many can say that they have detoxed and recharged the body this year. If you answered not yet or never don't worry, it's never too late to start.

Yes, it's difficult and hard to start or to know where to get started, but I can guarantee you that you will feel great and your skin will look better after it.

Try to start off with introducing extra fruit and vegetables into your diet and cut out processed food as much as possible especially anything in a pack. Cut out all carbohydrates; breads, pastas, potatoes, for a short while which will allow the body time to flush out the toxins that have built-up over time. It is extremely important to increase your water intake. Every day we are supposed to drink two litres of water, during a detox try to increase it to four litres. Introduce a juice to replace one meal a day for three days eventually leading up to a three-day juice diet.

You will suffer a few headaches, they will pass but you will get great clarity when you build up to the three day juice detox.

The best green detox juice includes one lemon, a bunch of celery, bunch of basil, one green apple, and a half-inch piece of ginger but this is optional.

Celery is an amazing vegetable as it contains antioxidants that may help to lower inflammation in your body. It's also hydrating and low in sugar. It can help counteract acidosis, purify the bloodstream, aid digestion, helps prevents migraines, relax the nerves, reduce blood pressure and clears up skin problems, congestion and spots.

For more information or advice on how to get started, book a consultation with Jill call 064 6632966.

Killarney Chamber of Tourism and Commerce has led the tributes to the late Con O’Leary, an extremely popular and very successful businessman in the town, who passed away in the early hours of Sunday.

Con was a vibrant and popular personality in Killarney where he operated The Laurels on Main Street, a thriving bar and restaurant, which he inherited following the passing of his father, Thado.
The business organisation said from a social perspective, The Laurels became the beating heart of the town and it was a landmark at the Market Cross in the same way as Clery’s clock was in the capital city.
Chamber said Con’s passing really marks the end of an era as he was one of a golden age of inspirational local business people who developed and built Killarney, through hard work, bravery and great commercial flair, and helped create the wonderful tourist attraction and holiday destination it is today.
“Con was very proud of Killarney and he played a very active part in progressing the town at many levels.
“He was a man that was never short of great ideas and his contribution to the business life of the town and as a director of Killarney Race Company was immense,” Chamber said.
“He was ahead of his time in many respects with the introduction by what became known as “the singing lounge” many years ago and The Laurels always led by example through its successes in the annual Killarney Looking Good competition”.
The business representative organisation noted that the O’Leary family has always been very supporting of the town and Con’s daughter, Kate, was a very dynamic Chamber President and is still a very valued member of the executive.
Chamber expressed deep sympathy to Con’s wife, Anne, children Kate, Niall, Tara and Lorna, sons-in-law, grandchildren, sisters, relatives and friends as well as the dedicated staff in The Laurels, past and present, who Con always had great time for and a great rapport with.

Kerry County Council is to host a two-day road safety conference at the INEC Killarney on May 28 and 29.

The ‘Safer Roads’ road safety conference is an inter-agency event focused on improving road safety, reducing traffic-related incidents, and sharing knowledge and best practices for safer road use. It encompasses various strategies and efforts across multiple domains, including road design, engineering, enforcement, forensic collision investigation, technology, education, collision trends, occupational driving, cycling and scooting, e-mobility, active & sustainable travel and on-road events.

In addition to this, AI, Virtual Reality and Driver Simulation will play a significant role at the conference, in improving safety by predicting and preventing accidents, optimizing traffic, and aiding the development of autonomous vehicles.

This ‘Safer Roads’ conference is a non-public event where road safety professionals, speakers and service providers from across Ireland, other EU countries and the UK will attend, including transportation experts, government and local authority officials, roads policing and vehicle inspection agencies, road safety advocates, educators and promoters, collision responders, cycling bodies and community safety networks.

Kerry County Council’s Road Safety Officer Declan Keogh said:
“Road safety has evolved over the years to a much broader scope, in terms of e-mobility, sustainability, technology and engineering for instance. It’s not just about the road or the vehicle anymore, but also about how technology, human behaviour, enforcement, and education intersect to reduce risks and prevent collisions. The ‘Safer Roads’ conference will involve and include every branch of the road safety tree, right across the board, and in doing so, we aim to increase road safety awareness, improve road user behaviour and decrease the collisions and carnage we see on our roads every day,”

The two-day conference also provides an opportunity for exhibitors to attend, and interested state bodies, businesses and service providers are invited to exhibit at the event to showcase their products and services and engage with delegates and officials at the conference.
