Tips for Detox

1. Drink Juice Often and Don’t Starve

When you’re juice detoxing, you shouldn’t let yourself starve at all. Drink as much as you need to feel like you’re full and nourished. You should be looking at anywhere from 5 to 6 times a day, maybe more at first.

2. Drink Lots of Water

Water is essential when your juice detoxing. In order to succeed, you need to make sure that your body doesn’t get dehydrated and that means drinking even more water than you usually would! Carry a water bottle with you everywhere.

3. Talk to Your Doctor Before Detox Diets

Before starting any type of detox program, be sure to consult your doctor and make sure that you are doing it the right way and avoid dehydration or any other health complications.

4. Reduce Animal Products Consumption

Keep away from dairy products, except natural yoghurt; drink soya or nut milks instead of milk. At the same time, eat fish, lentils, eggs, beans, quinoa, tempeh (fermented tofu), seeds and nuts as good protein alternatives. Limit on fatty meats.

5. Have Herbal Tea

Drink herbs such as nettle to provide support for your kidneys, meanwhile have dandelion root tea to promote liver function. And avoid coffee, alcohol and black tea.
