seven day detox

The timings of meals are a rough outline, adjust these to fit in with your schedule. Bear in mind that if the detox is very different from your normal daily food consumption, you may feel less energetic. Try and do a detox when you can relax. The frequency of drinking the water is up to you, but try and avoid having it with food, or straight after a meal. Make sure you drink at least 2 litres each day.

After you've finished the detox, try to stick to a diet consisting mainly of the foods that can help acne. If you go and eat foods that can aggravate acne, you may suffer a breakout. Detoxing itself can bring on a breakout, this is a sign that your body is cleansing from the inside.

Continue to eat cleansing foods and your kidneys and liver will do all the detoxing for you and it won't show up as acne on your face. Our bodies get rid of toxins in the easiest way possible, people with acne often have sluggish digestive systems and inefficient liver and/or kidneys and so the body gets rid of toxins through the skin. By helping your body to work more efficiently to flush out the toxins, your acne will fade.

Use the day planner below, and swap out the recipes for ones here, or in Clear Skin by Karen Jessett. You can also use your judgement for changing the snacks of fruit and nuts to get a good variety over the course of a day, depending on your prefered fruit, nuts and seeds. Don't worry if you don't follow the plan exactly, just go with what you prefer.
