Another important
practice in a detox and cleansing slimming diet is the consumption
of water. It is absolutely vital that you take in enough water
during the process of detoxing your body. Water in itself is
already a very good detoxing agent but is vital when you are on a
detox diet. As you start your cleansing process you will be in a
calorie restricted diet too, meaning that you will be eating less
calories than normal and your body will subsequently start to use
its own reserves or fat and protein to make up the shortfall. The
problem is that over the many years of energy deficit allowed to
the cleansing processes, your body will actually store the toxins
in your body fat for later processing. When you are detoxing, some
of the fat will get converted and toxins will again flood your
body. You must have enough water in your body so your cleansing
organs like your kidneys, liver, spleen etc can function to their
best degree in cleaning the extra toxins out of your
system.
The
Plan
We have taken a look at all the different detox diet plans around
and have come up with a system which we think is the most effective
at both cleansing the body and also helping you have a healthier
life. The problem is that the majority of detox diets are quite
extreme and can actually be more dangerous than the toxins that
they try to remove from your body. Our goal is to provide a detox
and cleansing system which is both effective yet easy to follow and
does not risk your own health in the process.
The first thing
to be done is to change your extra-curricular activities. The detox
diet will last for about 2 weeks, in these two weeks food stuff and
beverages that are bad for you should be eliminated. Beverages like
coffee, alcohol, protein shakes or any other type of body building
supplement should be avoided. Activities like smoking or even going
to places that are polluted like clubs or manufacturing plants
should also be avoided. This is the first step in giving your body
an easier time to eliminate the built-up waste in your body, you
must stop introducing toxins for the elimination process to proceed
properly. All activities that you know will add pollution or toxins
to your body must be stopped for the time being.
In place of all
the toxic items that you might be ingesting we recommend that you
increase your intake of water to double the amount that you
normally would drink a day. Water is a great cleansing liquid on
its own and can significantly help the detox process. If you find
that drinking plain water all the time is hard then you can
alternate between that and freshly squeezed vegetable or fruit
juice, preferably organically grown just to ensure that you are not
taking in pesticides and fertilizers that might complicate your
detox process.
