Natural Cleansing Diet

By eating certain foods, you can create a natural cleansing diet. Cleansing your body has many benefits including better health, more energy, possible weight loss, better sleep at night, happier moods, and a clearer mind, which is a less stressed mind.

Eating junk and processed foods, and too much food inhibits digestion. Digestion affects metabolism - if your digestion is poor, so is your metabolism. This creates an environment in which waste can build up. By eating a naturally cleansing diet, you keep your body's processes strong and create an environment that will digest food, assimilate nutrients and efficiently eliminate waste.

Start your morning with a slightly warm glass of water with fresh lemon or lime squeezed into it. If you can create the time, sit for about 5 minutes. This fresh lemon juice helps to stimulate your lymphatic system because it is anti-septic, can stimulate the liver, and dissolve uric acid. Also, when added to warm water, it can stimulate the bowels.

For breakfast, have 2 pieces of fresh, organic fruit. Fruit is a natural detoxifier and full of fresh vitamin water that we call juice. Many fruits are high in vitamin C, one of the most powerful antioxidants.

If you prefer protein in the morning, wait about 10 minutes after your fruit and have one or two high-Omega 3 eggs (organic if possible). Protein helps to strengthen your liver for detoxification and fat burning. The Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid that when taken regularly, assists the body's detoxification process, helps brain function and assists in weight loss. Add tomatoes and a small amount of spinach to turn your meal in to a cleansing, fat burning breakfast.

Keep your diet naturally cleansing by having fresh, green salad with a light, non-dairy dressing for lunch. Your digestive enzymes are at their highest now, so by eating a salad you will stimulate it even more. By eating this salad every day, your body will create the strong enzymes every day resulting in stronger digestion. By keeping your digestion strong, your body will naturally cleanse waste as it continues to break down old buildup after food is digested.

Turn your lunch into a fat burning, cleansing lunch by adding a low-fat protein source such as lean chicken, turkey, fish, or beef. For vegetarians, add sprouts, beans or nuts. Be sure the portion is no more than the size of your palm to ensure your body is able to digest it all.

Keep your energy up with a cleansing snack later in the afternoon. Now is a good time to have yogurt (no sugar). Be sure to check the label for the good bacteria - it may be labeled as live active cultures. These good bacteria strengthen digestion and strengthen the immune system.

For dinner, have steamed veggies with a small portion of lean protein. By eating light your body will be able to digest all the food easily. This leaves room for your natural cleansing processes to keep working through the evening while not leaving undigested food from overeating.
