Body Cleansing Diet
A body cleansing diet, when done properly, can help your body eliminate accumulated toxins including chemicals pesticides and other waste. Many toxins are stored in the fatty tissues throughout the body, which could be areas surrounding the brain and heart. According to many health professionals, including medical doctors, chemical and heavy metal toxins can accumulate around the brain, in fatty tissues and in the skeleton. This can affect your physical health and your mental health. By using a body cleansing diet and supplements, you can help your body rid itself of these harmful accumulations. Go easy and take precautions (such as using colonics and massage therapy) to help toxins move out as they are dislodged. Remember, they have to move through your body before they move out. This body cleansing diet will help you maintain balance during the detoxification process. You can use this to work your way toward a

, for a more intensive cleanse.
Diet Outline
- Breakfast - 2 Organic, cage-free eggs with steamed greens (such as spinach), 4 ounces fresh fruit juice with added wheat germ oil
- Snack - Organic apple, fresh water with "green superfood" added
- Lunch - Green salad with avocado and lean protein (organic turkey, lean beef, chicken or beans) Use other chopped veggies that will help absorb toxins, such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, kohlrabi, turnips. Use olive oil and organic apple cider vinegar for dressing
- Snack - 1 serving of oatmeal... yes, oatmeal. You can add Grade B organic maple syrup, stevia or even raisins for flavor. You can also use this for breakfast and have 1 or 2 boiled eggs here, or switch this with the earlier snack.
- Dinner - Small green salad (same dressing), protein (same as lunch), 1-2 cups of steamed veggies (asparagus, mustard, turnip greens, broccoli or cauliflower) with flax oil and lemon and a small serving of wild rice or brown rice.
- Drinks - Drink at least 1 cup of green tea each day, more if you like. Also, drink organic herbals teas, and as much fresh, filtered or spring water as you like (at lease 6 glasses) try to refrain from all coffees, "mineral" waters, soft drinks and other questionable drinks - for now.
The fibers found in the foods and the green foods of this body cleansing diet will help bind chemicals that may be released into the digestive tract. The lighter eating will help you not to add more toxins while allowing your body the extra energy to detox itself. The protein is important to allow the liver strength and nutrition to do its detoxing business. Be sure the protein serving is the size of your palm.As long as you are eating the full servings, you can stay on this type of diet as long as you are comfortable. Anything under 1 week, however, may not be too beneficial.
