If you are trying a detox diet for first time, then you need to start with gentle cleanse that targets the intestines. If you focus on the liver first, the released toxins in your body may become reabsorbed if the bowels are not detoxified first and are not moving adequately enough to expel them.

A typical detox diet program may consist of fasting, specific diet, nutritional supplements, herbs, hydrotherapy, exercise, and sauna.

Fasting

You can either fast by drinking only water, juices or broths or by eating one kind of food exclusively for a period of time.

Fasting is great for detox and obtaining better health. While fasting your body adapts to the lack of incoming protein by drawing upon almost solely fat for energy. Your metabolism will slow, so physical and mental activity should be minimized during a fast.

Water fasting – you can consume only water. Your body doesn’t spend any energy on digestion of foods, resulting in more energy for your body to expel toxins.
