Beginning The Raw Food Lifestyle By Doing A Detoxing Regime For 3 Days

February 25th, 2010  | Tags:
A 3-day raw detox diet can be very helpful in the journey to eliminate harmful pollutants from your body and also provide a nice jump start to a raw diet plan. The body possesses the ingrained power of filtering out environmental and diet toxins via the main organs such as the liver kidneys, skin and lungs. The solution would be giving your body the raw (pun intended) equipment to do just that.

While there are many methods to the three-day detox diet, all of them follow these basic guidelines:

- quit smoking cigarettes, consuming coffee, consuming processed foods and unnatural sugar, and consuming alcoholic drinks
- eat plenty of ripe, raw vegetables and fruit
- consume soaked seeds and nuts
- have lots of water

Following a three-day raw food diet simply involves enjoying raw fruits, vegetables, herbs, and / or nuts and seeds for nutritive intake. Dropping meat and milk products helps to further cleanse the system of threatening bacteria and poisons that enter into the body as a consequence of eating animal products and / or processed food. Detoxifying your body helps to clean the blood system which in turn aids in renewing the filtering organs and helps to optimize their performance.

This detox diet will give your body an opportunity to flush toxic waste material without additional toxins entering the body concurrently. As well as the raw food, a successful raw cleansing may include raw herbs that may further assist in the internal cleansing process.

Infusions using products like:

  • senna
  • fennel
  • star anise
  • lemon


and other herbs can be made with warm or hot water and can really help your body release toxic substances and poisons in as little as one or two days.

Besides raw detoxification food, one must consume lots of water on this detoxing diet. Raw foods contain plenty of water in them, but to replace a body that’s almost eighty % water, lots of pure filtered water is beneficial. Each critical chemical process that occurs in the body wants water, including the creation of muscle, so it is of the greatest importance that water consumption remains high. Drinking lots of water also assists the liver and kidneys in processing and removing the poisons you will need to get rid of during your detoxification cleanse, allowing you to expel many of them by way of urination and perspiring.

Just like someone who is attempting to cleanse from a drug addiction, drinking lots of water and sitting in a sauna can truly push this poison release to a higher level. Please discuss these suggestions with your natural health practitioner before doing them. The sauna detox might be one to add to your detox regimen when you have some cleansing experiences under your belt already.
