You Don’t Need to Cut
Your Calorie Intake
At the opposite end of the spectrum
is the misconception that just
because you are detoxing, you
can eat pretty much anything you
want. As mentioned above, starving
yourself is not the way to go, but
you cannot load up on calories
either.
If toxins overrun your system, even
a slight increase in your calorie
intake can lead to weight gain. You
have to watch what you eat and be
mindful of the number of calories in
each meal. That said, you don’t have
to obsess over the calorie count of
every morsel you consume!
Just make sure you are eating sufficient food and getting optimal nutrition from your meals.
Only the Foods You Hate Can Help You Detox
You will be amazed (and probably grossed out) looking at some of the foods and
beverages people force themselves to consume just because they feel they will help with
detoxification.
The last thing you probably want to feed yourself is raw garlic, but some people unhappily
eat it for dinner (and that too with plain brown rice). Science proves that your body won’t
benefit from the food you consume unless you actually enjoy what you eat.
Steer clear of foods and beverages that you don’t enjoy eating, because they will end up
causing more harm than good. A simpler solution is to load your daily diet with healthy
items, such as nuts, whole grains, and good ol’ fruits and veggies.
