Detoxing

So many people are so very eager to do a weekend detox, or a month's detox when in reality its what your liver does for you every day. The whole function of the liver is to remove any toxins from your body - 'detoxing'. Its that simple.

Detox diets range from useless to the downright dangerous. If you really want a quick detox, I was always told eat a little orange peel (organic, as you do not want to ingest any chemicals). This flushes anything from your system fairly quickly (a few hours) via diarrhoeia. That may sound disgusting, and I guess it is really but its a whole world safer than cutting out everything that your body requires, the most common item being protein. Without protein we cannot function for very long. it is dangerous to go for more than a day without it, as our body requires it for any activity we do during that day.

Cutting out a food at a time is ok and can benefit your body - omitting caffeine, or sugar, or dairy but doing all of them together just gives you headaches, makes you crabbit and leaves you feeling dreadful. If you want to omit them all from your diet, rather than doing it in one go, take one at a time, and once your body has recovered from lack of one, move on to another.

The key with everything in life is everything in moderation. Not overdosing on anything is good for us (even fruit, which is naturally high in sugars). Let your liver do what it was meant to and try eating a well balanced diet.

Wishing you a healthy and happy spring :D
