Your Questions About Detox Diets

Lizzie asks…
Do any detox diets work?
I’m looking to lose as much fat as I can in one week, can I do so with a detox diet and aerobic exercise? Would ten pounds be possible?
Cindy answers:
It works a lot if you do it religiously

Ken asks…
How does a diet detox make you feel? How extreme should it be?
I’ve found several detox diets, ranging from a week to three months, and from all fruits and vegtables, to only certain ones and salt water. I was wondering if anyone has been on a detox diet before, which kind it was, and how it made you feel. Feedback? Suggestions?
Cindy answers:
You outline one problem with detox diets; there are about a million of them (I exaggerate a bit).
What are your goals? For a simple detox, your goals should be to eliminate the toxins that are residual in your body (such as insecticide, herbacide biproducts, addatives, formaldehyde constituents, animal hormones, antibiotics, etc.)
That being said, you don’t need anything very severe. What I recommend for the majority of my patients is the Whole Food Farmacy detox. It’s a modest 13 days, includes essentially everything needed, and is achieving great results. Many people have the added goal of weight loss, and the average case I’ve had loses weight.
I’d be happy to answer any more specific questions you might have with detox diets. I will say, some are simply alarming and downright dangerous. So do be careful!

Mandy asks…
Where can I find a good Detox Diet and workout schedule for a competitive swimmer?
I am completely out of shape and unhealthy, and recently I heard Detox Diets can help.
However, I have looked for a good one and a good workout schedule, but have found none. Can anyone help?
Cindy answers:
I would suggest a cleansing diet. I lost 12 pounds in 9 days and then 28 pounds in less than a month. I also lost a lot of inches too! I learned that cleansing will help the body get rid of impurities. Impurities come from a lot of things like fast food, pollution, food additives and preservatives and lots of other things. The impurities get stored in the fat in our body. To get rid of the fat, we have to get rid of the impurities by cleansing the body. This made sense to me and I decided to try a cleanse program and it worked. The weight came off fast and this kept me motivated to keep going, not like other diets where the weight loss it too slow. I did Jenny Craig, Weight Watcher and Medifast. If you want to learn more call the toll free number 1-877-587-4647 or check out the website. This was the first time I ever did a cleanse, it was easy and I feel better. Good luck whatever you decide to do! Http://diet4cleansing.com
