3 Foolproof Detox Diets to Try This January
The Cleanse Program
Introduced in 2009 by a cardiologist, The Cleanse Program offers a 21-day detox which excludes inflammatory foods. A favorite of slim foodies such as Gwyneth Paltrow, two liquid meals a day around DIY fruit-and-almond milk smoothies in between is consumed for three weeks to cleanse the body.
As with many detox programs, it’s advisable to abstain from alcohol, coffee, cheese, gluten, and sugar during this cleanse.
Results: Expect to feel more energetic, lose a few pounds and kiss goodbye to puffy eyes and bloating. Discover more about this cleanse here.
The Master Cleanse
Beyonce herself tested this 70’s-inspired detox program, which involves drinking up to 12 glasses a day of blended fresh lemon juice, Grade-B maple syrup, purified water and cayenne pepper. Optionally, many people choose to add a saltwater each morning which has a laxative effect.
Results: Expect feeling ‘hangry’ for a day or two before temporary weight loss and decreased bloating. Read more about this cleanse from an Elle Editor here.
The Beauty Detox Solution
Favored by celebrities such as Drew Barrymore and Fergie, this cleansing program involves eating a green-centric diet. As this cleanse is formulated explicitly for gorgeous glowing skin, hair, and digestion, dairy, coffee, and gluten are absolute no-nos during this detox.
