A detox diet plan to help clean your body after the party season
You all partied out and had a blast eating and drinking on New Year’s Eve. But post the food and alcohol bingeing, it’s now time to flush the toxins out.
“With excessive partying during the festive season we ingest chemicals of all kinds, more sugar and refined foods, and abuse ourselves with various drinks and processed foods, which put extra pressure on our organs. It’s very important to remove this strain from our bodies.” , says nutrition expert Naini Setalvad.
So, follow a detox diet plan to help clean your body after the party season, says an expert.

Follow this detox diet plan and stay fit and healthy after your party!
I think it’s hot in India at this time of the year so this detox diet would be ideal. When it’s winter, as it is in the UK and North America right now, it is not so appropriate to go on a restrictive detox diet with a lot of cold foods. I tend to go with the Chinese view that it’s best to detox in Spring when there are a lot of new season’s fresh vegetables around. Winter is a time for eating healthy, nutritious, warming foods to build up the immune system although you can eat more foods that support the detox system.
I have never tried Amla Juice which we call Indian Gooseberry here in the UK. I’ve heard that it’s quite bitter! Not sure I want to try that on it’s own. Can you add it to a green smoothie?

Hi Sonal,
You have shared a great detox plan. I really liked the use potent seeds in the entire plan. Flaxseeds, Chia, and Quinoa seeds all are nutrition dense super foods.
I generously use flax seed and it is working wonders for me. I hope it does the same for your readers.
