There are several types of detox diets. There are those in
which you can only eat fruits and vegetables, those in which
you can only eat “clean” foods, those in which you can only
drink fruit and vegetable juice, and the most extreme type
where you can only drink water. You can also do specialized
cleanses designed specifically for certain area of the body,
for instance the liver, kidneys, blood or lungs. However, most
detox diets just involve cleansing the entire body. Below,
there is a sample of a seven day detox diet that you can try.

First of all, it is important that you have regular bowel
movements during a detox because this will lessen the
likelihood of toxins being reabsorbed by the body. A good way
to make sure you will eliminate regularly is to take 2
tablespoons of ground flax seeds in lemon water in the morning,
and drink lemon water throughout the day. Flax seeds provide the
body with fiber and lemon water has a slightly laxative effect.

It is also important to drink enough fluids on a cleanse. You
should try to include at least 8 glasses of water daily to
ensure that you are allowing toxins to be flushed out.

A sample menu of a detox diet follows below. This is a diet
that allows some food, since this tends to be easier for
beginners. Remember, you can modify this to fit your needs and
preferences.

fatigued, contact your doctor.
