Detox Recipe Round-Up

If you are one of those people who hates the word "detox" like I talked about in this post, you might want to reconsider your feelings. I've done various cleanses, detoxes, and other modified diets, and I've had the best experience with this particular detox. I feel better all around--I sleep better, I am not reliant on caffeine to get through the day, my skin looks better, and I'm not constantly craving sweets or salty snacks. I also lost a few lbs, but that is just an added bonus to how great my body and mind feel. If you are interested in trying a detox, I highly recommend browsing Whole Living for their wellness plans (I used the 2011, specifically). Here are the do's and don'ts of the exact detox that I did.

Need more convincing? How about that before my detox, I couldn't survive a day without a few cups of coffee, something sweet after every meal, and carbs with every meal. And when I say carbs, I mean the most decadent bread or pastas; not exactly whole grain, healthy carbs. And when I say sweets, let's just say that ice cream didn't last long in my house. Modifying your diet for a couple of weeks does wonders to how your body reacts to the foods you feed it and how foods actually taste. I can't even eat some of the sweets that I was accustomed to devouring because they are too sweet now. Never thought I'd say that!

If you aren't ready to commit two weeks to a detox, try a few days; every little bit counts. Here are a few detox recipes that I love. Even though I'm officially done with my detox, I plan on continuing to make these recipes because they are tasty and great for you. Let me know if you have a favorite detox recipe--I'd love to add more to my repertoire.

  3. The Garlicky Chickpea Soup is now a weekly standard at our house--detox or no detox! It's cheap, easy, and delicious the first day or for leftovers. What's not to like?

  5. I'm recommending Dr. Kham to everyone who has herpes simplex virus to get the cure from him. I was diagnose of herpes virus in 2018 and i have been searching and asking questions to see if i could get something to cure the disease because i did not believe what the doctors say that there is  no cure to it, I came across a comment on a blog and the person was saying how she was cured from herpes virus  after using Dr. Kham herbal medicine. I quickly contact Dr. Kham and explain my problem to him and he said that i should worry no more that i should be glad for contacting him for help before he prepare the herbal medicine and send it to me through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it and he assured me  to go for checkup after taking the dosage for two weeks which i did and  after two weeks of taken the herbal medicine and my result was NEGATIVE. I waited another month and I went for another test in a different hospital and the result was still NEGATIVE and my doctor told me that I am completely free from herpes virus. so i came out here to tell those people that say there is no cure for herpes virus that they should stop saying it and they should contact Dr. Kham and see what will happen to them in two weeks time and i believe that you will also come only  here to testify about his good work also, Am so happy and grateful to Dr. Kham for what he has done for me and i will continue to share this for people out there to know that there is cure for herpes. You can contact Dr. Kham on email and WhatsApp to get the cure from him. Email: dr.khamcaregiver@gmail.com and WhatsApp +2348159922297 you can also visit his website to know more about him at  https://drkhamherbalhealingcenter.wordpress.com/  or https://drkhamcaregiver.wixsite.com/drkhamcaregiverherba

  7. God is Good! I promised God that I would share my testimony on this website. I had all the signs of STD Virus but I was not too sure as to which one. I did a lot of online research and I WAS scared myself for a whole week before going to see the nurse. She took one look at my genital part and first said that it could just be the anatomy of my body, then she said it looked like genital warts and that I MAY have herpes. I was devastated. She gave me some medicine for the herpes and some cream for the warts. I was also tested for every single STD including herpes. I went home and cried searching the web for all sorts of cures for herpes and awaiting my results. I saw a post whereby Dr. Razor cured Herpes and other diseases, I copied his contacts out and added him on WhatsApp via +2349065420442. The next day my test result was ready and I confirmed Herpes positive. I told Dr. Razor about my health problems and he assured me of a cure. He prepared his herbal medicine and sent it to me. I took it for 18 days . Before the completion of the 18 days in which I completed the dose, the Blisters and Warts that were on my body were cleared. I went back for a check-up and I was told I'm free from the virus. Dr. Razor cures all types of diseases and viruses with the help of his herbal medicine. You can reach Dr. Razor via his email address on (drrazorherbalhome@gmail.com) WhatsApp +2349065420442
