Detox means internally cleansing the body of harmful substances and the consequences of poor nutrition. If you want to do a detox treatment, you should avoid overly acidic foods such as meat, cheese, flour, alcohol and coffee for a while, which overwhelm our detoxification organs. But what can you eat during the detox diet? We have put together 7 delicious detox recipes for you that can help you lose weight and strengthen your immune system.
