I am drinking this detox juice diet recipe as I write and I have to tell you this tastes really really good.

I just ran this all in about 5 minutes so forget the “I don’t have time” excuse.

this made about 24 ounces of juice.

5 medium size carrots
1 apple
1 good size cucumber
1 bunch of green onions
3 big celery sticks

If these flavors don’t seem like they will work together believe me they do. Very well.

You could drink this and nothing else except water with lemon, maybe some broth, if you want to make a day of detox. Or make another batch of this.

It will work better if the day before and the day after you use this detox diet recipe you eat mainly salads and or steamed vegetables.

Try this as a weekend detox diet plan. It is recommended to detox your brain some by taking time to relax. Relaxing, being quiet, taking it easy a bit is one of the things you can do to refresh, heal, and reinvigorate yourself. You will look better and have more energy which will bring good things into your life.

I have been reading a lot of  information online about different detox diets. Doing detox plans requires some thought. There is a liver detox plan I see uses Epsom Salts (magnesium sulfate)  taken internally. This may even be wonderful for many people but magnesium sulfate has killed people. See “Fatal Hypermagnesemia Caused by an Epsom Salt Enema: A Case Illustration”

The discussion uses one example and sites others and studies. People died. If there was some sort of test I could take to make sure my body could tolerate this regimen before I took tablespoons of Epsom Salts in my mouth I would consider it. I did not find any such test, possibly there is one.

The results from people who took this and survived were dramatic and positive. Apparently the ducts of the liver get blocked over time and clearing that is beneficial. I am thinking there could be other ways to do this. Ways that are not so dangerous. Call me a party proper but if I wanted to die I would just shoot myself and get it over with, thank you.

At least one website was responsible enough to provide a warning. The site writer had done this method and was very happy about it. The other sites who offered the same liver cleanse detox did not mention any precautions. This is very irresponsible. Intelligent people can make infrormed decisions, when they are informed.

My approach is to make detox food and detox plans and incorporate them into my daily life. I expect over time I will try many things, but it will be after enough research. Frankly the sickness some people say they get during a detox program due to the poisons being flushed out could actually be a direct result of the detox thing they were doing instead.

Detox diet recipes that do help the body to heal are usefull and I think important. Even simple fasting, notice that animals do this when sick. Juice fasting is probably just as effective. It is easier to stay with and less likely to effect a person in a negative way.

The idea is to aid, assist, and promote the body’s own healing ability.

So anyway here is my simple detox lunch recipe. I had this today.

1 apple

1 orange

1 bunch of grapes

put them all on a dinner plate, sat and read far out extreme detox methods while I ate. It seems as I eat more fresh food my body wants them more.  Especially the grapes, I could hardly get those grapes in me fast enough.

I also drink water with lemon juice in it daily.

Pomevie Pomagranate is one of the most prowerful anti-oxident cleansers, try this free trial.

Doing a 3 day detox is a simple way to stay healhy and to lose weight. It’s only 3 days so it will not be a gruelling marathon. I find short detox diets done more often works better for me.

This simple detox should increase your energy too.

On the First Day:

Start your day with water and a little lemon juice, it is refreshing. Don’t drink anything else except a little fresh fruit juice, not the kind with added sugar. For Breakfast you should have a light wholegrain cereal and fruit, oatmeal is ok if you prefer.

When lunchtime rolls around eat just vegetables and a few ounces of fish. The type of vegetables and fish I leave up to your taste. Your body has a sense of what is best for it. See how easy this is? You won’t even feel hungry.

Have a similar meal for dinner. Make sure to leave off oils and salt, or really any heavy seasoning. Day 1 is focused on vegetables, a little fish, and plenty of lemon water.

For the second day:

You keep drinking lemon water and plenty of it, your body will let you know if it is too much, don’t be thinking of gallons though, OK? Stay away from coffee or tea are allowed (Do I have to tell you , No Junk Food?)

Your Breakfast today will be just fresh fruit and lemon water. Go with what is available, in season, your favorites. I like apples, peaches, grapes and may a banana if I am feeling super hungry. Eat until you are satisfied.

Have for lunch a nice green salad with just a little olive oil and lemon on it, go with dark green. When you are ready for dinner eat steamed fish and steamed vegetables. Steaming the vegetables makes them easier for your body to digest.

One of the important principals of detox diets is to lighten the load on your body. You should be feeling more energy and your skin should be looking better by now.

For the third and final day:

See this is not too hard. and you only have one more day to a healthier you. Today is only lemon water and fruit. You may feel very hungry today but hang in there this is the last day. Fell free to eat a few times through the day but just fruit and only lemon water, or plain water if you prefer.

Dinner will make it easier because you can have steamed vegetables. I like corn because it is filling but also go with dark green. The green is from the chlorophyll which is a natural purtifier.

The great part of a 3 day detox is you can fit it into your active life. I do these once every month or so.

Our sedintary lifestyle. As much as your body has detox functions built in remeber the origional design worked best when people ate mostly food they grew and spent hours and hours of physical activity.

Hunting for a lost file on my computer or capturing a video hardly qualifies. Hours laboring over a hot computer or climbing the ranks in a google seach just won’t compare.

Lately I am making my lunch and afternoon snack just a bunch of apples. Cold from the fridge they are quite satisfying. Red Delicious. I have heard other apples discussed as prefered but if I don’t really like the taste then I will not stay with the program. I am going to try this for 3 days maybe a week.


As I have said before, and it bares repeating, It is my plan to make detox dieting part of my every day life. I will be sharing my recipes I use as I go along.

Here is a detox diet meal recipe I did today.

1 big red onion
4-5 garlic clove pieces.
3 Tbl spoons olive oil
1 Tbl spoon cyanne pepper

This is very tasty cooked. It is still very healthful.

My Detox plan is about healthy detox foods becoming part of my everyday life. As you will see the magic of detox revolves around fresh food. Lunch today was a romaine salad with a little oil and vinager.

Your body has detox methods working already. Some may ask, why detox?

The main goal of a detoxification program is to help and assist your body’s own cleansing system. We are all aware of the many chemicals present all around us. Popular foods contain many additives as well.

Much as you may be healthy many of us want to achieve optimum health. Have more energy, strengthen our immune system, and life a longer more vigorous life.

Good recipes for detox diet can help us get all that. it is important to take a reasonable and informed approach when starting your detox program. Going too far too fast can be harmful. A well designed plan is one you can incorporate into your daily life.

For example lemon is known to be valuable for detox. Without going to a great extreme one can simply keep a bottle of lemon juice on hand and add some to every glass of water. You will likely find yourself drinking this instead of the many high calorie drinks and have the double benefit of losing some excess weight.
