Detox Diet

What 'Detox' Means

Detox means to detoxify, or remove toxins or poisons from your body.

Who Benefits From a Detox Diet

A detox diet will benefit everyone, but in particular any of the following:

People who eat an unhealthy, unbalanced diet
People who smoke, or have a high alcohol or caffeine intake
People who work in a polluted environment
People who have been ill or taking long term medication
People who have been suffering emotional or physical stress

How a Detox Diet Should Work

Our body has its own very efficient detoxing system which, unless we overload it, works very well when we are young, healthy and stress-free.

The problems occur when we overload our system with toxins, or when our body is under pressure through age, illness or long term stress.

A good detox diet will help the system to rid itself of stored toxins and take pressure off our kidneys, liver, bowels and lymph system.

What is a Good Detox Diet

A good detox diet should not be a one-off, one-day attempt to cleanse the system. In this situation we may metabolize the toxins, but instead of being ejected they may stay in our body and wander around in our bloodstream. This type of detox can do more harm than good.

A good detox diet should be done slowly and it should be sustainable for at least one week. Because of this a fasting diet is not a good idea.
