Broccoli Sprouts
Take the sprouts, leave the broccoli head. Broccoli sprouts are super high in antioxidants that help detox enzymes in the digestive tract.
Citrus
Vitamin C is one of the best detox vitamins around, so it’s no surprise lemons, oranges and limes made our list. The enzymes help to clear the digestive tract and cleanse the liver. Try drinking a warm glass of lemon water daily.
Fruit
Since fruit already has such wonderfully-high liquid content, it works wonders for your system. Plus, fruits are easy to digest, high in antioxidants, nutrients, fiber and vitamin C. Fiber is especially important for cleansing your digestive system because it expands to sweep the intestines clean. You can gently cleanse your system by eating plenty of bananas, pears, apples, strawberries, blackberries, grapefruit, oranges, dates, figs and plums. hey pick the juicier fruits.
Garlic
It may be stinky, but by just adding raw or cooked garlic to your food you’re helping to filter out residual toxins.
Green Food
Remember when your mom told you to eat something green every day? Do it. And make sure some are leafy greens like kale, spinach, arugula and even wheatgrass or blue green algae. The chlorophyll will boost your digestive tract to eliminate toxins.
Green Tea
This well-known healthy drink washes out toxins with its special antioxidants called catechins, which also increase liver function. Win-win.
Mung Beans
These tiny beans pack a big punch as they absorb residual toxins along the intestinal walls.
Omega-3 Oils
Avocado, olive oil and flax seed oil… sounds good to us! These items are high in Omega-3s which help lube up the intestinal walls and absorb the toxins.
Raw Veggies
Since onions, carrots, artichokes, asparagus, broccoli, cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, garlic, beets, turmeric and oregano are all high in sulphur and glutathione, they help to rid your liver of harmful toxins.
Water
And lots and lots of it.
While you’re at it, boost your metabolism with these foods. Happy detoxing!
