Tips to detox 

If you’ve been worried about the harmful chemicals and pollutants harming your body, take a look at these detox tips

• Drinking a glass of water right after you wake up can help in flushing out toxins from your organs after a whole night of inactivity
• Eating food items that are rich in fibre can greatly improve the detox process. Some detoxifying food items such as brown rice, fresh fruits like apples, oranges, pomegranate and banana, and organically grown vegetables like beetroot, spinach, broccoli, seaweed and radishes have been known to improve your metabolism and overall health
• Vitamin C is also very beneficial for the body as it helps in producing glutathione. Glutathione is a compound found in the liver that helps in removing the toxins from our body. Sulfur-rich foods like eggs, broccoli, and garlic also help enhance glutathione 
• Avoid processed foods, eat less meat, and dairy to give your digestive system a break to rejuvenate itself
• Consume lots of vegetables and whole fruit, while you are going for a detox
• Raw nuts, seeds, avocados and pears provide essential healthy fats that slow down your digestion and releases more energy so that you don't feel fatigued while you are detoxifying your body
• Start the day with hot water and fresh lemon before having breakfast
