Holidays, birthday parties ,Christmas,New Year,Easter ,are marked by exaggeration. Even if you know or promise to control yourself, you end up doing some exaggeration. Candy, fat and alcohol make the body produce toxins and the body gets more acidic, so we feel heavy. I’ll give you some tips on how to detox the body after parties !

Water after party:

Drinking 1.5 to 2 liters of water daily is law and should not miss on detox process . Drinking 1 or 2 cups while fasting expels all toxins and still “wakes up” the metabolism, causing it to work properly all day.

Another fasting option is to drink warm water with lemon and ginger zest. The combination helps the liver eliminate toxins from poor diet and alcohol.

Coconut water is also highly recommended as it maintains healthy metabolism and prevents fluid retention.

The power of teas

Teas are also to detox the body after the parties, as they help fight abdominal bloating. Green teas, hibiscus tea, mint, fennel, lemongrass, lemon balm, chamomile and cinnamon apple are best because they are diuretics. A good tip is to have green or mint tea right after meals, so digestion is easier. The indicated dose is up to 1 liter per day, you can make a jar of tea and put in the fridge.

Potassium is hydration

Invest in potassium rich foods in the new year’s detox diet. The mineral returns lost hydration and helps combat fluid retention. Here’s where to find potassium:

Banana;

Melon;

Plum;

Papaya;

Dry fruits;

Spinach

Almonds;

Citrus fruits help the liver

Citrus fruits have their place on detox process, already have lemonade, a compound that helps the liver expel toxins. Lemon, orange, kiwi and cashew are good examples of citrus fruits, but pineapple is the one that works most in favor of the liver. Consume in natura and also in the form of juices.

Vegetables cleanse the body

Vegetables are welcome on any diet, so don’t be left out of detox process. Bitter vegetables such watercress cause the gallbladder and liver to flush out toxins and facilitate digestion. Other toxin-eliminating vegetables are lettuce, chicory, cabbage, mustard leaves, cauliflower, and kale; in fact, kale can be beaten in a blender with water and consumed fasting for 20 days to boost the detoxification.

Thermogenic foods always

Thermogenic foods like ginger, red pepper and cinnamon also help detoxify the body after the parties and speed up metabolism. Learn how to include them in the diet:

Ginger: raw for sauteing fish, poultry and meat in juices and teas;

Red pepper: consume at lunch and at most 3 grams per day;

Cinnamon: sprinkled on fruit and tea.

Lean meats

Lean meats are the last item on the holiday after-party healthy eating list. Eat skinless chicken and grilled, baked or boiled fish.

I hope this information help you get back in shape after holidays or parties.
