Our bodies are well equipped to eliminate toxins, it's happening all the time internally - but lifestyle can slow it down.

It's up to us to keep it going. A car won't drive if it uses petrol and you put diesel in..... we need to look after our bodies and put the right fuel in such as healthy fresh fruit, vegetables and plenty of water. Our bodies just needs a little help to enhance the natural detoxification process. By making a few small changes it will increase energy levels, help you to lose weight, feel better and give your skin back its glow.

Limiting alcohol is one of the best ways to keep your body's detoxification system running strong. Excessive drinking can severely damage your liver function by causing fat build up, inflammation and scarring. It also causes dehydration which can lead to digestion issues.

Good quality adequate sleep each night is a must to support your body's health and natural detoxification process. Sleeping allows your brain to reorganise and recharge itself as well as remove toxic waste and by-products that have gathered throughout the day. Poor sleep has been linked to short term health consequences such as stress, anxiety, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Not eating after 7pm can lead to a good night's sleep as your body doesn't have to digest the food while you rest.

If you need a little help to start the detox process and get you in the right frame of mind, try our Universal Contour Body Wrap. It's a great motivational tool to help start the elimination of excess toxins. The wrap helps to tighten loose skin, smooth cellulite and soften your skin. On the other hand, it's a really relaxing, fabulous treatment to treat yourself to. It will boost your motivation to encourage you to detox for the days following your treatment. It will help you to stick to a detox diet that is sustainable going forward, with less processed and more natural fresh foods.

How will our Kerry TDs vote tomorrow?

Tomorrow, Sinn Féin will be tabling a motion of no confidence against the Government after the protests that took place nationwide during the week.

Earlier today we asked our readers how would they vote in a no confidence motion against the Government?

Most of our readers said they would vote no confidence, while some said, yes they do have confidence in the Government.

One reader said: “Vote confidence. The only proper leadership over the last few days came from government. Courage came when needed despite how unpopular it looked in the moment. By contrast, opposition politicians wanted the country to burn to suit themselves”.

Another reader stated: “No confidence. Shambolic and heavy handed handling of protests this past week”.

However, some people didn’t have any confidence in either side with a reader saying: “No confidence in the no confidence! Different wings of the same bird! We need a complete overhaul of the political system”.

We asked the question to our 5 Kerry TDs before lunch-time today, asking them what their vote will be tomorrow.

We received one reply from Sinn Féin’s Kerry TD Pa Daly.

He will be voting no confidence in the Government tomorrow along with his party.

Other media outlets are reporting that Independent TD Danny Healy-Rae is undecided at the moment.

A Killarney-based software company is celebrating two years in business since expanding into the European market.

QT9 Software Ltd, which is located on Bohereencaol was established in 2024 as part of the company’s move to better serve customers across Europe.

The business is part of a US-based company founded 20 years ago in Chicago by Brant Engelhart.

Its Irish office is headed by Killarney resident Angela O’Sullivan, who serves as Operations Director.

QT9 Software currently employs four full-time staff members in Killarney and plans to increase that number by an additional two this year.

The company provides quality management software to businesses worldwide, with the Irish office helping to support European customers within their own time zones.

As part of its continued European expansion, the software company also opened a new data center in Amsterdam in 2025 to meet data storage and compliance requirements.

QT9 Software works with businesses that must meet quality standards such as ISO 9001 and ISO 13485, as well as industry-specific regulations across sectors, such as automotive, aerospace, food and life sciences.

Speaking about the milestone, Angela O’Sullivan said: “We’re very proud to have grown QT9 Software here in Killarney over the past two years. It has been a really positive journey so far, and we’re looking forward to continuing to build our team and support more customers across Europe.”
