Popular Diets - The Detox Diet: Popular Diets


Detox diets generally propose that fruits, vegetables, and water make up the majority of the dieter’s food intake. These diets usually reject processed and genetically modified foods and restrict or eliminate alcohol intake.

Detox diets eliminate foods that are hard on the metabolism; for example caffeine, alcohol, processed and canned foods, salt, sugar, wheat, red meat, pork, fried food, yellow cheese, cream, butter and margarine, and shortening. Recommended foods include raw fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, raw nuts and seeds, fish, vegetable oils, herbs and herbal teas, and water. Many detox dieters practice associated techniques such as raw foodism, fasting, calorie restriction, food combining, herbal detox, and drinking of detox teas.
