The best way to detox marijuana from your system is to change your lifestyle. The safest  and most effective way. There’s no next best thing to do with a body that has been intoxicated, but to temporarily keep it away from all other chemicals that might have yet another side effect. Just like in trying to quit smoking weed, it would require a complete abstinence for one to successfully detox from THC.

Active lifestyle

The duration of withdrawal usually depends on how quick your body reacts during the process of detoxification. This in turn, depends on factors such as your body mass index (BMI), in which study have shown that the higher the BMI the longer will it take for the weed to be flushed out.  For people with higher BMI, the way to detox faster is an active lifestyle. Regular exercise will lower the body mass and accelerate metabolism at the same time.

Diet

The body’s capacity to absorb and hold the THC molecules depends on the fat percentage—the higher it is, the longer will the body hold them and much harder to excrete them. So, to complement the exercise you will need a balanced diet that will lower the body fat percentage. Though, you must know that losing weight doesn’t mean losing body fat as well. That’s another thing to work on to. You will need a fiber rich diet that will help remove the fat cells that contain the THC chemicals out of the body.

Sweating

As an additional way of making the process even quicker, cannabis users might consider the steam bath or the sauna that will expel the chemicals released with the sweat.
