Importance Of Detoxing
A healthy and easy detox will allow your body to take a break. When your body is taking this break, it will refresh and rejuvenate everything that’s been weighing you down. It will help you banish stress and physical setbacks that might have been in the way throughout the last few weeks. Sometimes our body just needs a chance to relax and catch up with where you want to be currently.
When you move forward through life, you are in a constant battle with what you eat. You shouldn’t always have to restrict yourself, but you also need to find a balance between healthy and unhealthy.
Everything from stress, caffeine, alcohol, and toxins in unhealthy food, it can end up weighing us down, making us tired, unmotivated, and overall unhealthy. But when you decide to dedicate a day to set all of that nonsense aside and focus on what your body needs to be able to refresh, that’s what will help you feel great again.

- You can help prevent severe illness and disease in some cases
- It will help motivate you in all aspects of life
- You will have an easier time dropping weight
- You’ll overall have a better quality of life
- Your skin texture will improve and look healthier
- You’ll have more energy
- You will make better choices for your diet and lifestyle
In this article, we want to focus on helping you find three extremely simple recipes that you’ll seriously have a hard time getting sick of. These recipes will act as your new detox diet plan, and you’ll most definitely have an easy time making the switch. Because not only are these recipes extremely healthy, they also taste great!

This detox smoothie looks fresh and clean, it’s a classic green smoothie that will give you major energy and will keep you awake instead of you gulping down that sugar-filled coffee. If you drink this the morning of your detox, you’ll be able to power through your day without any problems.
When you add leafy greens to your diet through cooking or smoothies like this, you’ll be adding rich vitamins and minerals your body needs to be able to function fully. Adding a ton of spinach will keep your body healthy and will help you balance your system in a natural way.

- 2 cups of oats
- 2 cups of your choice of milk or milk substitute
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 cups of berries, they can be frozen if needed.
- Your choice of honey, dried fruits, and nuts/seeds.
How To:
1.Cook the oats in the milk of your choice on medium heat, stirring regularly.
2.Let the mixture cool down for one moment and then add everything including the oat mixture into a blender.
3.Add all of your toppings and then serve. You can add fresh fruit on the top as well if you want to add in as many vitamins as you can. It’s really up to you on how you want to customize this detox heaven!

This is very interesting. I’ve always thought of a detox as being clear liquids … tea, juice, bone broth, etc. This is one I could commit to!

I love your recipes and giving people means to eat healthy and detox! Detox IS important if you do not eat this way normally anyway. I tend to stick to a diet that does not really require extra detoxing – MOST of the time lol I do cheat though sometimes.
