Today was my second day of a detox diet. After suffering through an infected root canal and undergoing oral surgery followed by antibiotics, I felt the need to cleanse my system. So far so good. On Sunday I ate some wonderful cherry pie after dinner and some dark chocolate later in the evening with my tea. Goodbye sugar and wheat for at least 1 week. The foods that I am eliminating this week are foods that cause the most stress on our liver and digestive system. This is my list of
Banned foods for the week:
All meat, fish and eggs
all dairy, milk, cheese, cream
all grains, wheat, rice
processed food
alchohol
coffee, cafinated tea
sweeteners, sugar, honey, agave, artificial sweeteners, stevia
Foods that I am eating include:
vegetables, fruit
legumes
nuts seads
So for breakfast I made smoothies, typically with bananas, apple and kale with the addition of frozen blueberries yesterday and some honeydew melon today. Lunch I had some southwest style pinto beans with guacamole and blue corn chips. For dinner I ate a salad with oil and vinegar dressing.
