Foods for detox

Think of how much garbage you eat. The grease, the additives, the toxins. Now read how to get rid of them. FYI: I detox once a month, usually the week before my period.

Feeling sluggish? Achy? Bloated? Time to detox. But where do you start?
Start now with spring foods that have exceptional natural detoxifying power. In the rainy and muddy months of spring, nature provides a low-fat, low-mucus harvest of sprouts, greens and berries. Use the spring grocery list below and eat more of these foods from March through June to help detox and rebalance your body.
Though these certainly aren’t the only items you can eat during this time, they are the in-season foods most beneficial if you want to detoxify and keep your digestive and lymph systems working at their peak. These foods can help you feel better, boost fat burn and prevent illness during the months of spring!
For a more customized approach to eating for detoxification, find out your Ayurvedic mind-body type profile, or dosha, and use the tips in the Ayurveda for Detox DVD to tailor your eating, fitness and other routines to your mind-body type.
