Ingredients
You have already heard about vitamins and vegetables in fruits and how they are important for your health. Here, am going to introduce you to a new ingredient called beta carotene. Virtually all fruits contain beta carotene.
This is the ingredient that gives color to fruits. It plays an important role in getting rid of toxins in your body. Beta carotene will also keep away heart diseases by preventing the formation of clots in the veins. In addition to vitamins, you will get beta carotene's in your system from fruits and vegetables.
To make your own detox drink, you can read through the benefits and combine the ingredients that are tailored for your needs specifically. Kiwi, lemons, lime, grapefruit, pineapple, apples and berries – they’re all packed with enzymes and antioxidants to kick-start your body natural detox function, but also to nourish your cells with vitamins (especially vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant and anti-age ally).
Pros of Detox Drinks
Detox drink will not only give you a relief, but also help your liver in cleaning toxins. Further studies have also linked beta carotene to a reduction in brain diseases including Alzheimer's disease. There is a list of diseases that I could name here that are caused by the lack of fruit in the diet. In essence, detox fruits play an important role in keeping you healthy.
Unlike other foods you take, this drink is easy to consume. You can take large amounts without being worried about weight. Furthermore, digesting detox drinks is rather easy. When you compare detox fruit with conventional carbohydrates, you realize that the body can digest fruits while you are active. However, your body will mostly digest carbohydrates while you are asleep. This is because carbohydrates are difficult to digest. Therefore, most of the systems need to be dormant in the body to digest carbohydrates effectively. This is why you mostly feel sleepy after a diet of carbohydrates.
Cons of Detox Drinks
Detox drinks lack fiber, which helps in bowel movement. This means that you may get frequent loose bowel movements. Furthermore, detox drinks get you on a diet that is exclusively vitamin based. In essence, your body will lack on carbohydrates and proteins. To stay healthy you need vitamins, proteins, and carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates give you energy. Therefore, if you exclusively take detox drinks you might start feeling weak. On the other hand, proteins play an important role in building muscles. This means that your body mass might reduce significantly if you take detox drinks exclusively.
Safety
Detox drinks are generally safe as long as they contain natural substances. However, if you are getting them commercially then you should look at the ingredients before buying.
Detox drinks are a great way to stay healthy. This is because they keep you healthy by protecting you from heart and brain diseases, and cancer. However, a holistic diet should incorporate vitamins, carbohydrates, and proteins.
