10 Best Detox Recipes

January is a popular month for detox after the excesses of the holiday season. But of course you can choose to detox at any time of the year.

Whether you embark on a multi-weeks or 2-day detox, you can feel the benefits of a plant-based diet. It can help reconnect your body by boosting your immune system, eliminating toxins and giving your digestive system a break. Detox can also be helpful in shifting a few pounds.

You can feel the benefits of detox (such as increased energy) even after a short period. Personally the added bonus of detox is that it always has a positive effect on my mood!

How to start a gentle detox?

Choose simple and healthy food with a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Exercise.
Drink plenty of water to help eliminate toxins.
Have plenty of Vitamin C.
Relax and take some time to pause.
Get plenty of sleep.
Stay clear of processed food, gluten, dairy, coffee, alcohol, cigarettes, refined sugars, saturated fats, meat and fish.

Some of my favourite and most effective detox recipes include: garlic, ginger, kale, broccoli, beetroot, brown rice, watercress, cabbage, lemons, oranges, green tea, spinach, carrots, artichokes, spirulina, alfafa, miso and avocado .
