Detox cocktails at home. Detox slimming cocktails. What are detox cocktails

Hello dear friends in health (or aspirations for it)!
In all my articles, I talk about food and the benefits of different dishes - today I'll talk about recipes for drinks with a detox effect. It may seem to you that this is something complicated, but anyone can make such a cocktail for themselves (and if you also have your own household, then God himself ordered you to try one of the drinks, which I will talk about in this article). Some of them are delicious, others are just healthy. Do you think that detox is not necessary for your body, since nothing hurts you? Don't be so categorically wrong!

Who invented them?

The so-called detox water is nothing more than homemade sugar-free lemonade. Perhaps you have been preparing something like this for yourself at home for a long time, not even suspecting that you are "indulging" in the favorite drink of retreat centers ... Oh, again a tricky word! Retreat means retreat. Inhabitants of such centers close themselves off from society in a very comfortable house, where they are fully engaged in spiritual practices, listen to silence or talk for hours, and of course, eat exceptionally healthy.

Yes, meditation and dedication to Buddha are fashionable things, but not all over the place, but today only the lazy was not interested in healthy eating. But it's one thing when you just gnaw a carrot, remembering its vitamin content, and another thing when you have a certain good goal in front of you. Let's say, detoxification of the organism, exhausted by smog, smoking neighbors, "natural" products from the supermarket of the body. Therefore, it is not surprising that not everyone knows about retreat life, and every second person knows about detox drinks.

Signs that you are in urgent need of such a cocktail

• Persistent (or just suspiciously frequent) constipation, flatulence, nausea.
• Fatigue, which knocks down in the evening, and even in the morning does not go away, despite the night's rest.
• Headache.
• Constant mood swings.
• Skin problems (acne and so on).
• Love for not the most healthy food or fast food restaurants.
• Excess weight.

NB! Of course, do not forget that many of these signs also signal the onset of the disease. So if they are very pronounced, it is better to go to a therapist.

What benefits do they bring to our body?

• Cleans the liver.
• They remove toxins from our body, which in turn protects us from problematic diseases such as stress, insomnia and even cancer.
• Improves the appearance of our skin.
• Helps fight inflammation.
• They give us vitality, help us gain strength.

NB! Losing a few pounds of excess weight is also common as a side effect of detoxification.

Cucumbers... "Rejuvenating" vegetable that cleanses the liver and removes excess water from our body.

It is necessary to gradually prepare the body over several days, to reduce the amount of solid food. Refuse sweets, pastries, semi-finished products, fried and fatty foods, then exclude animal products (meat, fish, eggs). Remember to drink enough clean water every day.

Follow these guidelines when detoxing:

1. The optimal time for a cold-pressed juice detox is 3 days. For beginners, 1-2 days will be enough, and more than seven in a row can be dangerous to health.
2. Juices are absorbed faster than solid food, be prepared to take 6-7 servings per day, with a break of 2 hours.
