How to expel uninvited guests from the body? This issue is especially relevant on the eve of the summer. The answer is simple: start the cleansing program.
Remember the basic rules of cleaning the body:
- Drink lots of plain water. Refuse alcohol and coffee.
- Prepare for cleansing beforehand. About a month before the diet, give up heavy, fried, salty and spicy food. Also try not to eat meat. Your friends: greens, fruits, vegetables and cereals.
- Start each morning with a glass of water with a lemon. You can replace it with freshly squeezed carrot or beet juice.
- Stick to a strict diet no longer than ten days, but not less than three.
- Repeat cleaning approximately twice a year.
Here is an example of dishes from which you can make your own diet menu (recipes from the books "Ayurveda" and "Recipes of Chinese research").
