Detox Your Body

First of all, it’s very important that you drink lots of water while you add these detox foods to your diet. Water flushes out toxins.
Begin by eating green leafy vegetables. Raw vegetables are the best way to get the detox benefits or if your body prefers try adding them to warm chicken or vegetable broth. Leafy vegetables contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll works with the body cleansing out environmental toxins such as heavy metals and pesticides. Some call chlorophyll a wonderful and effective liver protector.
Cabbage is another vegetable that helps activate detoxifying enzymes in the liver. I bet you never thought coleslaw tasted so good.
This is what I do every morning and my body loves it. I drink water with fresh lemon juice. Every lemon contains vitamin C. Vitamin C is a detox vitamin. Lemons take toxins from the body, changes them to water-soluble substance that flushes them out of the body.
A favorite is a clean handful of watercress, loaded in minerals, and you can place them in your salads, soups or sandwiches. They taste peppery and the little green leaves have a diuretic effect, which moves toxins through the system.
Because the liver cleanses the body, it’s a great idea to activate your liver enzymes by taking garlic. You get those enzymes going your body will detox automatically. You can add garlic to your salads, sauces and spreads. Also, garlic is wonderful for the heart.
