A liquid cleansing diet not only clears the toxins out of your body but also helps you lose some pounds within a few days. It flushes out the chemicals and toxins that we take into our system, knowingly or unknowingly, through processed foods and cooked foods. It is believed that these chemicals and toxins are responsible for deteriorating the health of a person, and hence it is important to get rid of them.
When it comes to the removal of toxins, nothing does it better than a detox diet, which can be either solid or liquid. The solid detox diet generally includes the consumption of raw and organic foods that are chemical free. On the other hand, a liquid diet comprises only fruit and vegetable juices or purees. There are different diets that serve as a cleansing agent to remove the toxins from the body, but health experts are of the view, that many of them are fad diets and their credibility and effectiveness is questionable.

How to Do a Liquid Cleanse?

While following this diet, a dieter is allowed to consume only specific kinds of juices and purees. In most of the popular diets, a dieter has to drink six to eight glasses of lemon water throughout the day, without eating anything else. Some other diets also allow to include fruit and vegetable smoothies, clear vegetable juices, and herbal juices in the diet. All your meals and snacks would consist of liquids only, where you can combine the aforementioned options as per your choice.
You can also go for commercial diet cleansing methods that are available in the market and on the Internet. Different liquid diets prescribe different fruits and vegetable juices and have their own time period and timetable. Decide a diet for yourself that is well-suited to your lifestyle and health conditions.
Since detox diets could sometimes cause side effects such as fatigue, dizziness, headaches, low blood sugar levels, and nutrition deficiencies, etc., it is advisable to consult your doctor before you start following any of the diets.
Your current health status and family history can help the doctor decide, if you can go for a certain diet or not. Hence, it is extremely important to undergo a medical examination before going for any strenuous liquid diet to avoid unwanted health problems.
