What do you eat when you’re detoxing?

I remember when I did my first detox. I was nervous about one thing: was I going to be hungry?

Food is such an important part of our daily lives, it’s silly to participate in a detox that leaves you feeing hungry and unsatisfied. That’s one of the ways the 5-Day Cleanse is different – We’re going to eat REAL FOOD!

In fact, I’m so sure that you will love what you’ll eat on the detox that I’m sharing two of my favorite detox recipes with you in this post.

I want to make sure you feel comfortable knowing that we’ll be eating healthy, nourishing foods that will leave you satisfied and your taste buds happy. That’s why I’ve shared these recipes with you.

Try them out and if you like them, be sure to join us for the 5-Day Spring Cleanse that kicks off on April 12. Join us here and be sure to use the code SPRING20 to save £20 when you register by April 9.
