winter season is best season to detox

Ways to detox your body Once the thrill and rush of the festival season is over, it leaves in its wake a feeling of guilt and regret. No matter how hard one tries, festivities do make us their victim and take their toll on us. One does succumb to the allure of the various sweets, fried savouries and rich food. So, post celebrations, let’s detox: 1) Hydrate : Water, green tea, coconut water – these must be what you reach for first, especially when you’re detoxing or fasting. Fluids flush out all the toxins and leave your system humming nicely. Increase or double your intake, add mint, lemon or apple slices for a little flavour, and experiment with cinnamon – but drink up! 2) Go natural: Avoid packaged foods, sugar, and refined flour and baked goods, unless made organically at home. Choose unrefined foods like wholegrain Atta, brown rice and fill up on fibre. 3) Get more fruits and veggies; whether in breakfast or snacks, fruits will provide nutrients and vitamins with a sweet kick. Veggies leave you feeling fuller longer and green leafy veggies can be turned into smoothies and soups very easily. 4) Eat more frequently; and eat smaller meals. You must eat something at least once every two hours. 5) Toast or roast rather than fry. Look into baked chips made of spinach or brinjal as a snack or accompaniment to rice dishes. At best, use tiny amounts of organic desi ghee for cooking. 6) Exercise. Take gentle walks, a short run, and yoga or play a sport. Some form of physical activity is sure to get your body chugging and start its own detox process. 7) Try a steam and sauna bath. Shut the windows of your bathroom and let the hot water run – let your system sweat, so that the toxins come out and your skin glows healthily. 8) Do not skip meals or starve yourself. Ever. Breakfast Options • Oats with yoghurt or wholegrain porridge sweetened with cinnamon • Nut milk • Fruit platter • Green smoothies Lunch Options • Salads and yoghurt • Brown rice khichdi or brown rice stir fry • Wholegrain rotis and lightly cooked veggies Dinner Options • Spinach soup and salad with protein • Brown rice khichdi or brown rice stir fry • Wholegrain rotis and lightly cooked veggies Snacking Options • Steamed lentils • Green tea and fruit • Buttermilk • Tofu snacks • Nuts • Dry fruits
