Our treasure is our General Health. This saying holds good ever our life! You might possess all other forms of wealth, but to enjoy them you need to be healthy in body, mind and spirit. We could prevent the many diseases by performing a body cleansing at least once a year!
Know that a detox diet is a short-term diet, often 3- to 21 days, focused on removing toxins from the body. That’s why I found to assist your cleansing process and help you with few easy steps to be followed:
- The night of the starting plan, take Castor oil to empty your stomach and intestines.
- Starting the next morning day with ½ Lemon in 250 ml warm water + ¼ teaspoon of ginger powder with or without honey.
- Fresh juice should be made with a juice extractor for the 3 full meals daily.
- If felt hungry between meals, preferable to take 200ml fresh juice every 2 hours
- The juice should be mixed with water in 2/3 juice to 1/3 Water.
- Remember to drink the whole day from 8-10 glasses of water
- The following examples of healthy juices can be used to ease the detoxification process:
2 Oranges + 1 Carrot + 1 Pear + 1 Small yam
2 Pears + ½ Apple + 2 Pink grape fruit + 1 Sweet potato
1 Carrot + 1 Sweet potato + 2 Apples + 2 cucumbers
½ Watermelon + 1 Lemon + 3 slices of Pineapple + 1 Apple
3 pears + ½ Apple + 1 Cantaloupe + 1 Sweet potato
1 oranges + 1 pear + 1 yam + 1 grapefruit + 1 apple
1 beet + 1 carrot + 1 celery stick + 1/2 potato + 1 radish + ½ tea spoon of ginger
2 yams + 1 beet + 1 slice ginger + 2 lemons + 1 celery

1 beet + 1 sweet potato + 2 apples + 1 lemon + 1 tomato + 1 green onion
