Detoxing : The Natural Way Is Best

By Jim Greaves

You don't need to starve yourself and deprive yourself of food and drink to undertake a successful, healthy detox diet. If you don't give your body the energy that it needs, you'll end up creating more health problems than you solve. Rather than reducing the amount you consume, you instead need to opt for alternatives that are better for you.

Instead of eating just 2 or 3 large meals a day, try eating 4-6 smaller meals ones. Do so at consistent times each day and look to have your largest meal in the morning as opposed to the late afternoon or evening.

Whether they're canned, dried, fresh or frozen, fruits and vegetables are fundamental to a healthy detox diet. You should have five portions of them a day at a minimum.

Don't limit yourself to just apples, bananas and oranges though. Also consider avocados, apricots, black currants, blueberries, blackberries, chestnuts, currants, cherries, clementines, figs, dates, grapes, gooseberries, lemons, kiwifruit, grapefruit, limes, melons, passion fruit, mangoes, nectarines, pomegranates, plums, pineapples, peaches, pears, redcurrants, raspberries, tangerines, tomatoes, and strawberries.

For vegetables, there is just as a wide a choice: aubergine, beetroot, asparagus, broccoli, broad beans, carrots, brussel sprouts, cabbage, cherry tomatoes, courgette, eggplant, cucumber, cress, haricot beans, gherkin, green pepper, green beans, parsnips, peas, potatoes, red peppers, pumpkin, spinach, rhubarb, spring onions, runner beans, turnips, sweet corn, water cress, swede, and yellow pepper.

Consuming plenty of seeds, nuts, fiber, beans and grain, is another important step in detox dieting. The following items are particularly beneficial: lentils, walnuts, buckwheat, brown rice, quinoa, pinto beans, wholemeal pasta, millet, chickpeas, cereal, rice cakes, mung beans, baked beans, almonds, kidney beans, cashews, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, flaxseed, and pumpkin seeds.

Now for food types to avoid. As part of a healthy detox diet, try not to eat anything that contains sugar, processed meat, red meat, pastry, breads, wheat and any dairy products. Though they may not be outright bad for you, they are more difficult for your body to digest and process. - 17268
