People do detox for many different reasons. Some people do it to detoxify their body and some people do it to loose weight. Here are some effective ways to detox.
Detox Drinks
Drinking detox drinks are a very effective way to cleanse your insides and get rid of what’s not needed. Here are some recipes for detox drinks.
Lemon and cayenne
Add 4 table spoons of freshly squeezed lemon and half a table spoon of cayenne to 250 ml of water. Drink 5 times a day or more. To get a good effect, drink on an empty stomach.
Sea Salt
Mix half a teaspoon of sea salt in 250ml of warm water. Drink first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.
Water Cleanse
Drink only water for 3 days. Avoid doing any activities because you won’t have that much strength. This can be hard to do. But if you try hard enough, it’s easy.
Ginger and Psyllium
Mix 1 teaspoon of both ginger and Psyllium in 250ml of water. Drink immediately.
Papaya
Slice 200 grams of papaya and blend in a blender with 250ml of water. Drink on an empty stomach.
If you are doing detox to loose weight, try having only the detox drinks and very little food such as fruits and vegetables. Do not do any heavy exercises while on detox drinks only because you will get tired from not getting enough food and the usual essentials. Do easy exercises such as walking, hula hooping, yoga and any other minor exercises. If you aren’t doing this detox plan for weight loss, then try eating detox food along side with your detox drink. Here are some examples of detox food.
Breakfast
Breakfast is a very important meal for you to start of your day with. Try fruit salad with low fat yoghurt and a glass of fresh organic orange juice. This is a perfect breakfast meal for people on detox plans. Fruit is full of antioxidants and vitamins.
Another recommended meal for breakfast is oatmeal with warm low fat milk and berries. Choose plain oatmeal, not the sugared kind. Oatmeal is full of fiber and berries have vitamins and antioxidants.
Lunch
Your detox lunch has to be light. Boiled vegetables and cholesterol free butter on toast or a simple salad with lemon and pepper in stead of any salad cream or dressings.
Dinner
Dinner is the only meal where you can have meat. Try steamed vegetables with boiled chicken and pork.
For a seafood lover,
Smoked salmon with balsamic rice is a good choice. If you like beef, Braised beef and salad with a pepper dressing and gravy is a good meal for you.
To keep your body detoxified, try doing these detox plans as often as possible. By doing detox you are taking care of your insides and reducing chances of infections and cancer. Your liver needs to stay with you so do a detox every now and then to look after it. For people who are doing detox for losing weight, following the directions from this article can help and I hope it works for you.
