A detox diet is recommended after Christmas binges to purify the body and get back into shape. But what to eat? What are the best natural remedies that can help?





During the Christmas festivities did you overdo it with food and drinks? A typical situation that we often try to stem with a period of Detox useful to restore the organism tried by the "binges".

But what to eat, what to avoid and how to help yourself with natural remedies?

First of all, it is good to point out that it is not necessary, indeed it is not recommended, to fast to stem weight gain or compensate for previous excesses. Fasting after the holidays is useless and harmful as it worsens the hormonal structure, especially insulin, and makes us hungrier than the wiser choice of having regular and balanced meals.

Instead, it is better to prefer a healthy diet based on vegetables and fresh fruit rich in vitamins and minerals that help purify the body.

You can act specifically with some foods or natural remedies that help the liver work, the key organ for detoxification of our body. Among the foods that we should include most often are:

  • artichokes
  • garlic
  • grapefruit
  • rocket salad
  • spinach
  • avocado
  • apples
  • broccoli
  • carrots
  • beets
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • lemons
  • Whole grains
  • nights
  • turmeric
