Detox is discussed on tv so much these days but have any of you ever done this? If so, how did you feel, was it worth doing and how did you do it??? My body needs a detox but I just don't know the best way of doing it, any suggestions please??

No I haven't but I should. I smoke, eat fatty foods and drink pints of coffee every day.
I don't earn a lot of money to spend on professional treatment but I think there are many ways you can tackle a detox yourself.
Foods that I have heard are good for you include lentils, cabbage, beetroot and of course lots of water.

Whenever I've detoxed myself all I do is fast for three days and have nothing but water and pure cranberry juice whihc is NASTY (you boil a bag of cranberries in about 6 cups of water and let it cool basically)...if I do need to eat its plain fresh veggies (plain meaning no dips or dressings etc)....the big thing for me it LOTS of water though...

I dont know how healthy it is to do that to be perfectly honest with you but it works for me...I'm actually due for a detox soon come to think of it..

your BEST bet though is to ask your doctor...They have "detox kits" that you can buy online and probably in some drug stores etc but they dont make sense to me becuaes you end up putting crap in your body (pills etc) to get rid of the crap in your body...its totally illogical to me LOL

i've not actually tried this, but i heard there is a good three day detoxing plan that beyonce knowles uses, it has something to do with a mixture of cayenne peppers, lime juice and honey, i don't know the exact specifics, but it's pretty popular and u'll easily find it on a net search, i think.
hope i helped, gina

Yes I have, - I do it quite regularly, usually about every 3 months for a weekend. You are best off choosing a weekend or a Bank Holiday though, - it can make you feel pretty lousy for a day or so, and you shouldn't be rushing around too much at work or driving long distances. I try and choose a time when I'm going to be completely on my own, and for the first day I just drink water. I don't eat anything at all. If you get bored with the water you can flavour it with some pure lemon juice, but the idea is to completely purify your body. On the second day you will feel like s*** as you will have a headache from lack of coffee, tea, and other stimulants that we all have in our normal diet. But don't take any pills, just try and lie down, and rest a lot (thats why it's best to do it on a weekend!), and today you can drink pure fruit and vegetable juices. You might find orange juice is a bit too acidic, so try pomegranite or blueberry or cranberry juice, as they are all good for the kidneys and attack the "bad" bacteria inside us. Try and pamper yourself as much as possible........ lie in a long, hot bath with lavendar oil to relax you, read a trashy novel, or watch an old movie, - just give yoursef a lot of "me" time, as this is just as important as what you eat. The next day you can start eating again (hurray!), - but I try to keep it simple for the first day or so, or your body goes into "shcok" from the change. So just have wholemeal toast and fruit juice for breakhast or someting similar, and then salad, lean chicken, fish, that kind of thing. And try and drink decaf coffee and green tea too. The way I describe it probably sounds ghastly, but it does actually work to make you feel better. Good Luck!

I have had a few days when I just ate fruit and vegetables. I felt that this was a good detox for me. I don't really know whether they are healthy though so I wouldn't like to recommend them.

I would say it worths the way to try to change your dietary habits once a while. For instance, give up meet, diary products (such as milk, eggs, etc.) and fats for some periods of time. It helps a lot to re-equilibrate your metabolism and I believe it also helps to lose weight (though I usually don't lose). I would also say that if you decide to try to avoid fats and meat for sometime, you could seize the opportunity to give up smoking, alcohol and coffee (the last one impossible for me - I cannot live without coffee).
I also have a friend who uses, once a week, to pass the whole day only with fruits and water, I think this would also help to detoxification of the organism.
But, generally talking, for me it is far best to keep everyday a healthy diet, not junk food, not too much fats, many salads, drink a lot of water, no smoking and drinking. Then you will have nothing to need detoxifiation from :)

I heard about the process, but I have never tried it. Honestly, I don't think I would do it.
