Recipes for Detox Diet to Cleanse Your Body

At Burn Belly.com we not only help you to lose belly fat but also will help you to have a healthy body. There is an old image associated with the term detoxification, that being someone who is strung out on alcohol or drugs trying to get clean. Not anymore! Now we are talking about detox diets, and some studies suggest that virtually everybody could benefit from them. They detoxify the body by removing impurities from the colon, liver, blood system and other organs that accumulate unhealthy toxins over the course of several years. That seems like a good reason why so many people are trying detox diets.

If the body is a temple, then keeping it clean is the right thing to do. You wouldn’t let your home get too dirty, the same should be true for the body. And the best way to clean out all the pollutants, pesticides, fast food fat, added hormones and chemical preservatives is with a detox diet.

What follows are three tasty recipes for detox diets. Try them if you’d like to get rid of the garbage in your system or lose weight.

1: Vegetable Broth
Ingredients:
1 head fresh broccoli
1 c. fresh spinach leaves
2 stalks of celery
1 pot of distilled water

Instructions: Chop the vegetables into fine pieces. Add to the pot of water, cover, then bring to a full boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Drain, discarding any solids and use the broth. All of the nutrients will now be in the water for a delicious and effective colon cleanser.

2: Hearty Tomato-Based Detox Soup
Ingredients:
1 head green cabbage
2 med. green peppers

Cut cabbage into strips. Chop remaining ingredients into small pieces of equal size (preparing the beans as needed). Add all ingredients to the water and cover. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for a few hours. Bon appetit!

3: Lemon and Citrus Detox Beverage

Lemon is high in Vitamin C, bioflavonoids and citric acid. Perhaps that’s why it’s becoming one of the more popular ingredients for detox diets. Here is a beverage that incorporates lemon, and it’s tasty, too!

Ingredients:
1 c. grapefruit juice
Juice from a large lemon
2 tsp. olive oil
2 tsp. flax seed oil
1 scoop all natural protein powder, flavor of your choice
