detox

hi magumede,

Detox is not actually a correct way of losing weight but it has other benefits if done in a right way and for a right duration. As the name itself suggest , detox diets actually helps in flushing the toxins out of your body. these toxins accumulate in our body due to various reasons (stress, muscle wasting, excessive or long term medications, consumption of faulty food e.t.c)
As these detox diets are very low calorie wise.. we feel it would lead towards weight loss... but these diets though helpful when done for a day or 2 but are not nutritional adequate for any one ... hence please dont do such dietss for more than 2 days .. or else u will be left with a tired and dull feeling ... lose ur stamina n energy levels n feel week and once u return to ur normal routine, the entire weight will be recycled.. making it even harder for you to lose it.. rather explore more, there are so many healthy ways of losing weigjht without any side effects, where you can eat food and lose weight at the same time ... !!!

I agree with Payal. A detox diet is a temporary diet plan meant exclusively for detoxification of the body and mind. It only lightens the body but does not actually reduce the weight. Once a detox diet schedule is complete the body and mind should be restored back to normalcy through a well balanced individual specific diet which eventually should be maintained for a healthy living

During detoxification Meat should not be consumed. But warm and soft boiled rice can be eaten.
