Clean Out Your Pipes

Clean Out Your Pipes

A high-fiber diet will keep your intestines running smoothly, but I also recommend following this three-step body cleanse once a week:
Step 1: For breakfast, have a shake made from psyllium seed husks. Not only is psyllium packed with fiber that will keep you regular, but it also effectively reduces cholesterol levels and suppresses hunger.
Step 2: On your body cleanse day, double your water intake. Since you’ll be increasing your fiber intake, you’ll also need to drink more water to allow smooth passage. The extra water will also help to flush toxins out of your body. Instead of the usual eight 8-ounce glasses a day, drink eight 16-ounce glasses of water.
Step 3: Choose a non-meat source of protein for lunch and dinner. Beans and lentils are naturally rich in fiber and chockfull of vitamins and minerals. You might try a bean burrito or hummus and vegetable sandwich for lunch and then beans and rice or lentil soup for dinner.
