• Mono Fruit Detox Diet

This diet involves eating only one type of fruit. Unlike most detox diets this diet is often done for quite a while. Fruit supplies the body with organic water and the organic water allows the body to cleanse itself of all the toxins. Once you begin this diet your body will begin to remove the harmful toxins. Along with ridding the body of harmful toxins, the Mono Fruit Detox Diet has another benefit. It keeps your pH levels stable.

• Raw Food Detox Diet

The idea of this diet is to eat raw foods to prevent the loss of vitamins, minerals and other essentials that are lost while cooking or washing the food. When you begin eating raw food your body will develop enzymes that strengthen your metabolism and immune system. This diet also stabilizes the potassium-to-sodium ratios that also optimize cell function and the pH balance, which is the overall goal of a detox diet.

• Hallelujah Detox Diet

A lot of people can’t eat three raw food meals a day, but there is an alternative. If you still want to do the raw food diet, but don’t think you can eat three raw food meals a day there is a diet called the Hallelujah diet. This diet will allow you to be on the raw food diet, but it will also allow you to eat normal cooked food at the same time. The idea is that you eat about 85% raw foods and about 15% cooked foods. The best time to eat the cooked food is during dinner. In order to go on this diet you will need to skip breakfast, and drink fruit juices instead. If you eat breakfast on a daily basis it will take some time to get used to skipping breakfast. It may also help to replace your bacon and eggs with almond milk, a fresh fruit salad and whole wheat or sprouted grain toast with almond butter.

• Diuretic Diet

This diet does not help you lose body fat but it will help release the excess fluid your body is holding. This diet contains herbs and vegetables like asparagus, artichoke, celery seed, dandelion, juniper berries, melon, parsley and watercress. You can also find these herbs or vegetables in many foods and even in drinks such as coffee and tea.

So, now that you have read about a few different types of detox diets, take your time and do some thorough research before you choose any particular one. Plus, as I said earlier, consult a doctor first!
