Detox Diet Plan Explained

By Yuli

Detox Diet plans are the very last craze in dieting, that’s why the number of people searching for detox diet plans is growing everyday.

You may have heard about toxins, detoxification, cleansing, purifying – they are all related to detox diet plans.

Toxins are harmful chemicals affecting your human body. They are all around you (in your food, water, air) and inside you (as waste products of metabolism). Your system eliminates most toxins and the rest are stored within human body fat.

These stored toxins combined with stress can affect your health in quite unpleasant ways:

– excess weight gain
– headaches
– feelings of fatigue and weakness
– heartburn symptoms
– aching muscles and skin
– joint problems

These symptoms will fade when you begin detox. Well, you may feel some discomfort in the really first days, but that is a normal shape reaction.

You may feel headache or sore muscles, but that is because the toxins are released faster then your entire body can eliminate them. These symptoms will not occur again if you detox regularly.
