Health Tip: Cleanse Your Body Naturally
By LadyLively on May 13, 2016
“Detox” diets may be all the rage, but experts say they’re not necessary and may be unhealthy.
The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics offers advice on “cleansing” your body naturally:
- Drink plenty of fresh water.
- Eat five-to-nine servings daily of fruits and vegetables. Opt for green and leafy veggies, plus berries, leeks, turmeric, onions, garlic, artichokes, milk thistle and green tea.
- Eat plenty of whole grains, nuts and seeds for fiber.
- If your diet lacks any nutrients, consider a supplement.
- Fight gut-microbe toxins by eating fermented foods, such as kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi and yogurt. Or take a quality probiotic.
