Q: detox diet?
ok I am planning on going on a detox diet for 3 days, instead of drinking junices and vegetable, I do plan to eat them. I plan to eat fruits salad and vegetable salad, drink soup, water and fruit juices for three days. I know I need to detox becasue I have dark circles, pimples, stomach gas, and bad breath. do u think after going through this diet, this problems i have would be eliminated?

A: I just finished doing a detox which sounds similar. I only ate fresh fruit and vegetables, beans and legumes and drank heaps of water and green tea. I didn’t take all the pills and potions that you get from the health food shop but just ate really good food. I did it for 6 days and felt absolutely fantastic afterwards with heaps of energy. You need to make sure that after doing detox that you do start to eat a wider variety of healthy foods such as fish, chicken, lean red meat and dairy products again. I have managed to keep off the caffeine and alcohol and reduced the amount of red meat I eat and replaced it with fish (although I still do eat red meat a couple of times per week). Not sure if all your problems will be eliminated but it certainly can’t hurt and you will feel fantastic…good luck!!!

Q: Detox diet?
I’m on day 2 of a detox diet and I am suffering from headaches, nausea and fatigue. Is this normal, why is it happening and how long do you think it will last?
I am only eating fruit and vegetables for a week. From next week I will be allowed meat and other foods.

A: Sounds like you really needed to detox. Yes, this is normal because all those toxins are being stirred up in your system. Drinking lots of pure water is really important during this time so you will flush this out through your kidneys. How long these symptons last will depend on how many toxins in your system. Everyone is different. But you should begin to feel better in a few days. Try to rest as much as possible in a dark room to help the headache and fatigue. If you don’t have to take anything for the headache and nausea you will be better off because you will only be adding more toxins into your system. Hope you feel better soon.

Q: DetoX diEt?!?
i want to start a detox diet and i was wondering if anybody new any “drink” recipies of stuff i would already have at home and one that will keep me from being hungry anyone now of any or has tryed one??

A: “the master cleanse” is the best one out there. made from very basic ingredients.

cleanses your ENTIRE body, and has even been documented to cure diseases.

Worked great for me, but you may feel like total crap for a few days while you detox. its normal, but do it when you dont have work or something. 10 days is the minimum, but most of it, you wont be sick. go to your health foods store and ask them about it, or find the book. its short and cheap, and you wont find a better cleanse out there. it nourishes your entire body, and can even help you quit smoking and craving unhealthy foods.

Does it really work? I heard that you can lose ALOT of weight in such a really short time! Is that good for your body, considering that you are on a diet?

How do you exactly go about doing this diet? I heard that the diet ranges anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks. So what do you have to do and/or take while on the diet?

How much water am i supposed to drink each day?(not including the water in the mixture)

Can you eat lemons?

Is Cayenne pepper/ginger an essential ingredient or is this just to taste, can you have it without?
I’m not saying that I’m going to give the diet a try. I just want to know more about it before seeing my doctor and/or actually starting the diet.

A: You don’t! Going on any extreme diet like the following can be damaging to your body, just because Hollywood stars do it, it does not mean it is safe!

You have to get that “diet” image out of your head. You need to rather think in terms of “healthy eating”, and you need to include resistance training / cardio. There is no easy way out. People are always seeking for the magic pill / forumla that will help them lose the weight but this will lead to failure. If you are planning to lose muscle/water, then I suggest you go on the diet (well not really!), but what I am saying is if you don’t care about your health, then by all means go ahead. But if you do, then don’t go on it.

I have attached the following link, which explains how you should lose the fat the right way, though it is basic article, it tells nearly everything you should know. Remember anyone can lose a heap of weight in a short period of time, but you have to ask yourself “How much of it was fat?”. A majority of the time, the answer would probably be “nearly none”.

Q: What is a good detox diet that i should try without major health risks?
I’ve looked into the lemon detox and it can apparently make you feel run down and gain wait after it is complete.
I can deal with only drinking liquid i can manage fasting.
Also i am bad with sticking to a diet unless it tells you what to eat and when, like a good guideline roster.
Thanks
I dont really care if they are a scam thats not the question i asked is it?

A: Try an all-natural diet. Limit the bad fats and sugars. Going on a fast or “detox” diet isn’t going to do your body much good.

Q: How long does a detox diet take to show results?
k so i just started a detox diet yesterday…today sucks…i woke up with stomach cramps, and i had diarrhea.yuck…..i feel really tired and weird…i know this is your body cleaning itself out but how long does this last? and i was wondering how long it takes to see results from a detox diet? Anyone who has been through one? any tips???

my diet consists of:
green tea(no sugar, no anything, just the tea)
fruits,
vegetables and,
lots and lots of water.

i will be doing this diet for 1 month.

A: Fad diets, starvation diets, fasting, and diet pills do not work. Any diet that is temporary will only produce results that are temporary at best.

Losing fat any faster than about 4 lbs a week is impossible. Any additional weight you might lose would either be water weight, or your muscle atrophying.

The only way to lose fat is a complete lifestyle change where you stop doing what made you obese in the first place and adopt healthy eating and exercise habits for the rest of your life.

Detox pills, and detoxification and cleansing in general, are neither useful nor necessary unless you have had long-term narcotic use or are chronically constipated. Detoxification and cleansing has no proven medical benefits for the average person whatsoever. It will NOT help you lose any significant amount of fat. Your intestines are clean unless you use large amounts of muscle relaxers, or have serious digestive illness.

Q: where can i find some detox diet recipe?
my husband and i are planning to detox diet for a week. but i cant seem to find any recipes online.

A: http://www.living-foods.com/recipes/ has a great site that you can pick many recipes off of. I just completed a two week detox and this site was a blessing. Remember, no wheat, dairy, meat, caffeine or citrus fruit.

Q: How does a diet detox make you feel? How extreme should it be?
I’ve found several detox diets, ranging from a week to three months, and from all fruits and vegtables, to only certain ones and salt water. I was wondering if anyone has been on a detox diet before, which kind it was, and how it made you feel. Feedback? Suggestions?

A: you outline one problem with detox diets; there are about a million of them (I exaggerate a bit).

What are your goals? For a simple detox, your goals should be to eliminate the toxins that are residual in your body (such as insecticide, herbacide biproducts, addatives, formaldehyde constituents, animal hormones, antibiotics, etc.)

That being said, you don’t need anything very severe. What I recommend for the majority of my patients is the Whole Food Farmacy detox. It’s a modest 13 days, includes essentially everything needed, and is achieving great results. Many people have the added goal of weight loss, and the average case I’ve had loses weight.

I’d be happy to answer any more specific questions you might have with detox diets. I will say, some are simply alarming and downright dangerous. So do be careful!

Q: How can a do a detox diet at home by myself?

Q: Is the lemon detox diet safe and does it work?
I’m wanting to do the lemon detox diet but i just want to make sure it’s safe and just wondering if you’ve done it before how much weight did u lose?

A: It’s proven to not work and it may be dangerous.

Q: Are Orovo Detox diet pills effective, and more importantly, do they have any side effects?
Im 18 and 5ft 7. I weigh 134.5lbs (9st 6lbs), however I am extremely unhappy about my weight I want to lose at least 14 lbs (1stone). I maintain a healthy diet, however I have read about the diet pill Orovo Detox and was considering using it to aid weight loss. I just wondered if anyone had tried it and whether it proved to be effective or just a waste of money. Also, are there any risks?

A: The guy above me just copied everything that he said from this website:

http://www.webhealthanswers.com/Orovo/

Anyway, I’ve bought them and if you’ll wait a week, I’ll tell you if I’ve lost any weight or seen any results- personally. I will be honest and upfront about everything that goes on while i’m taking the pills. As a matter of fact, I’ll keep a daily blog- if you want me to. Contact me and let me know if you want to set this up. This is my first day of taking these pills. Let me know if you’re interested!!

Q: What does the lemonade detox diet involve?
Basically, I want to do the lemonade diet – I think. I have a vague idea of what it involves but I’m unsure about how to make the lemonade. Also can I eat any other foods while I’m on the detox and if so, what are they?
P.S. I appreciate all the comments warning me about how bad fad diets are. But I’m not doing it for weightloss, I’m thin. I’ve heard that flushing toxins out of your system has other benefits.

A: fad diets. So bad for you. Why don’t you just lose weight the healthy way? Eat healthy lots of veggies, lots of water, cut your sugar intake, watch your fat intake! Exercise!! do 3 30 min cardio, and 2 strenght training sessions a week to get your muscles strong. that will boost your metabolism. I know that isn’t what you wanted to know but doing this lemonade diet isn’t going to work. You might drop some weight (probably water not fat.) but once you get off the diet your body will gain it all back.

Q: Does a detox diet help to kickstart a weight loss program?
Would anyone recommend or comment on a cleansing/detox diet they’ve done.

A: I did a 3 day detox last year. It was tough but totally worth it. You may have seen it on the internet, it’s called the master cleanse. First you will need a gallon of distilled water, 2 lemons, 2 table spoons of cayenne peper and 2 teaspoons of grade B pure maple syrup. Distilled water, cayenne pepper, and lemon juice are great for leaching out impurities from your system. When you detox, you also eliminate the good too, vitamins and minerals. Believe it or not, the grade B maple syrup is high in vitamins and minerals and it makes the drink a little more tolerable.

The first day is by far the toughest. You’ll be cranky, annoyed, irritable, lonely and tired… HANG IN THERE!!! The next day you’ll start feeling the effects and you’ll be happy. Sometime in the afternoon, your head will start clearing out and you’ll have more energy. The third day will be even better. Every once in a while you’ll go through little irritable, foggy head phase, but that will pass.

When you are done you’ll be a little weak but in a day or two, you’ll be back and better than ever. Really just as important as doing the fast, is putting good things in your body afterwards.

Good luck!!!!
