Eat primarily foods that contain live enzymes, "life force" and nutrients. "Foods" that lack

A good detoxification diet will make your body ALKALINE. The acid/alkaline balance of your
body needs to be managed. Most people today have an over acid body, primarily from a diet
of acid-forming foods and stress. It's difficult to be acid and totally healthy. Becoming acidic
is one of the first steps toward illness. It's almost impossible to find someone with a disease
who is not over acid. More about the critical role of body PH here.

Anytime the body drops from full vitality, weakened areas result. Stress alone may create the
over acidity which leads to mucoid plaque. And stress often prompts deviation from a good
diet as the person seeks comfort or quick energy through acid-forming foods.

Another aspect of the nontoxic diet is avoiding

drugs--over-the-counter, prescription, and
recreational types--and substituting natural
remedies, such as nutrients, herbs, and
homeopathic medicines, all of which have
fewer side effects.

Other natural therapies, such as acupuncture, massage, and chiropractic may help in treating
some problems so that we will not need drugs for them. Avoiding or minimizing exposure to
chemicals at home and work is also important. This lessens our total toxic load. Substituting
natural cleansers, cosmetics, and clothes is helpful. My favorite source for ayurvedic massage

One form of the detoxification diet is one made up exclusively of fresh fruits, fresh
vegetables, either raw or cooked, and whole grains, both cooked and sprouted; however, no
breads or baked goods, animal foods and dairy products or alcohol are used. This diet keeps
fiber and water intake up and helps colon detoxification. Most people can handle this well
and make the shift from their regular diet with a few days transition.

The next level of detoxification involves a diet consisting solely of fruits and raw vegetables,
all cleansing foods. The green vegetables, especially the chlorophyllic and high-nutrient leafy
greens, are very cleansing and supportive for purification of the gastrointestinal tract and the
whole body.

I was first introduced to the power of raw, water rich foods such as fruits and vegetables by
the popular motivational speaker Tony Robbins . Tony Robbins has helped me make marked
improvements in not only my health but other aspects of my life as well. I highly recommend
his life-changing programs.

A raw foods diet is fulfilling for many people, very high in energy and nutrition. This type of
cleansing diet contains lots of sprouted greens from seeds and grains such as wheat,
buckwheat, sunflower, alfalfa, and Red Clover; sprouted beans; soaked or sprouted raw nuts;
and fresh fruits and vegetables. Cooking food is not allowed with this diet; eating foods raw
maintains the highest concentrations of vitamins, minerals and important enzymes, and
allows them to find their way into our body and cells. Many people feel that this is the best of
diets; it can be health supportive over quite some time if it is balanced properly.

Another form of cleansing diet is juice fasting.

Whether you are on a detoxification diet or not, it helps to follow those recommended rules
while eating.
