Detox diets, typically the restriction of solid foods, have become popular in recent years. However, there is no evidence that it will help detoxify the body as advertised. While they help you lose weight quickly, they also slow down your metabolism, causing you to gain weight again in the long term. Detox weight loss can be dangerous for pregnant women, people with chronic heart or kidney disease, or those with weakened immune systems. However, for some people, this is a good way to restart their diet based on a few health considerations.

Steps

Part 1 of 2: Choosing the type of detox

1. 

   Consult your doctor. It is very important to be advised by a trained medical professional about the detox solution best suited to your needs. You may have potential problems that may make the detox diet not right for you. Maybe weight loss shouldn't become your priority. There will be no health-promoting solution that is suitable for everyone.
   • A certified dietitian is a reliable source of information on the right diet for you. Certified nutritionists are specialists trained and certified in the field of nutrition.

2. 

   
   
   Try a juice diet. The juices diet is the most common form of detox. Consuming juices helps you get enough nutrients even when you limit your intake of solid foods. Part of the goal of the juice diet is to help absorb a wide variety of nutrients. Study juices that include a variety of fruits and vegetables.
   • When you go on a juice diet, you won't get some important nutrients like protein. You should limit the intake of the juice diet to no more than three days. If you diet for a longer period of time, you should consider a diet that includes other nutrients.
   • Since fruits are high in sugar, a juice diet is not a great way to lose weight. However, applying a short-term weight loss plan will help you add more nutrients that you may lack.

3. 

   
   
   Try Detoxification Methods. The method of detoxing the body is a liquid-absorbing detox diet that lasts only 10 days. The most basic is a mix of lemon juice, maple syrup (maple leaf syrup) type B (medium type), and chili. Lemon juice provides vitamins, maple syrup provides calories, and chili peppers help cleanse your digestive system.
   • Plus, this diet recommends drinking a laxative herbal tea or a mixture of salt and water. Both of the above help clean your digestive system.
   • After the first ten days, you will want to go back to eating solid foods gradually. Start with juices and fruit juices, then gradually move to fresh fruits and vegetables. You need to stop eating meat or dairy until your digestive system adjusts to the food.
   • Nutritionists believe that weight loss with cleansing treatments often returns.

4. 

   
   
   Try detoxing with hard food. Some diets claim to detoxify your body by excluding certain processed and unhealthy foods from your daily diet. Specifically, it involves consuming juices, protein, and some hard foods like fresh fruits and vegetables. This is sometimes the best option when you want to detox, especially when trying to maintain your muscle mass. This form allows you to absorb whole foods, proteins and nutrients.
   • Some examples include the "Quick One Day Diet", "The Comprehensive Detox Regimen of Dr. Joshi," and "The Three-Day Body Purification Diet."
   • The diet appears to be healthier in the long term than the Juices and Body Detox Diet, but since they are so different their effects are also very different. Research the type of diet you choose and be alert to the credibility of the source.

Part 2 of 2: Overcoming the detox diet phase

1. 

   Understand your expectations. Detoxification can cause unpleasant side effects at all. It wouldn't be surprising if it made you so hungry. However, you will also be tired, possibly headaches, diarrhea and gas.

2. 

   Avoid alcohol. When there's nothing in your stomach, even alcohol and caffeine can have damaging consequences. You should definitely avoid hard medications. Talk to your doctor about how prescription medications can affect your body on diet.

3. 

   Relax. Doctors warn you not to practice during the cleansing process. Since you get tired easily, choose light recreational activities. Leaving a few books and movies around will keep you from getting bored.
4. Have a tongue scraper handy. When you are on a diet, your tongue will often appear plump, causing your tongue to change color and cause bad breath. A tongue scraper will help solve this problem.

5. 

   Slowly get used to solid food. Your digestive system may have difficulty digesting solid foods after the detoxification process. For the first few days stay loyal to the small serving size of vegetables, soups and seeds. Get used to fruit first, then low protein foods like fish, cheese, and eggs four to five days later. Chew slowly while eating.
   • The detox diet doubles the elimination diet, so use these to your advantage by getting used to food slowly, so you can determine the effects of each food. to my body. For example, you may find that when you re-use dairy products, you often experience colic.
