Day-to-Day Plan:
Start the day with lemon juice in hot water (½ a lemon in one cup).
Next, try to exercise for an hour daily. The best exercises are jogging,
walking uphill, hot yoga, boxing or even joining a spin class.
Next, eat as many raw foods as possible. Skip the cooking process. Try
to meditate each day as well. Take this time to clear the mind and the
body at once.
It is important to be drinking a lot of water. Fresh vegetable juice and
herbal teas that support detox are also acceptable, and you should aim
for three liters of liquid each day.
When eating, be sure to chew each mouthful 10 to 12 times. This helps
with digestion and allows you to feel full more quickly, since it takes
longer for the food to be sent to the stomach and the appropriate
signals reach the brain more efficiently.
Finally, when you are about to take a shower, take some time and use a
firm loofah or a body brush with natural fiber to do firm circular
strokes across your skin. Then, shower as normal. This helps with
circulation and that will give your efforts at detoxifying a boost.
Detoxifying has been found to help increase energy and successfully help
with a quick weight loss. This is due to the focus on liquid intake,
changing your diet to improve it and only eat raw foods that are
beneficial to detoxing and providing nutrients. However, it should not
be done if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you have high blood
pressure or are underweight.
