Chennai: After a week of the celebration, Gayathri Prakash realized he had to shed several kilos.
So, when he heard about Diet Detox diet, he decided to try it.
“My first birthday niece and Diwali came close together so we all finally partyed and celebrated,” said Gayathri, a mother of two.
“I realized that I had gained weight only in a week and wanted to spill extra pounds.
I was a week into it and I already felt better.
” Even though the day has passed since people celebrate the led festival, reminders of celebrations show – in tight fit clothes, slightly prosperous stomach, and, for some, at a higher blood sugar level.

“If you are healthy, kidney, heart and digestive tract will naturally detoxify the body if you return to eat clean.
If it’s not healthy, natural detox will not happen, “said Meenakshi Bajaj, a nutritionist, Tamil Nadu Government Multi Super Special Hospital.

“You also have to take three FS – fluid to make you hydrated, fibers to clean the system of poisons and extra fats, and consume foods that have high orac (oxygen capacity absorb radical) value, such as turmeric, ginger, or walnuts,” said Meenakshi .
“You also need to consume lean and prebiotic proteins such as wheat, shallots, garlic, and apples that will synthesize healthy bacteria probiotics.” The three-day cleaning will not really help detoxify your system, said Meenakshi.
“You can gradually start with what is called a detox diet and makes it a lifestyle.” Have homemade green smoothies for one meal, or whole fruit and buttermilk or milk.
For lunch, have dal rice (khichdi) with pumpkin or curd rice and koulu vegetables, and for dinner, snacks from Idle, idiyappam, dal or salad fruit and vegetable soup, “he said.
