9 detox rules from French nutritionist Henri Chenault
● Increase your sleep time: go to bed earlier
Take vitamin C, prebiotics and amino acids.
Choose the right detox menu for you.
● Set your body and mind up for detox: smile!
● If you have time, have a spa detox treatment
● Drink a special detox cocktail
Detox cocktail: in a blender, pulverize carrot and beet juice (300 and 100 ml respectively), add a mixture of mashed cabbage – cauliflower, Brussels, regular or broccoli – 60 ml, crushed barley sprouts – 3 teaspoons and 4 garlic cloves. The mixture can be drunk every two or three hours, one glass for three days.
● After the detox, return to your usual diet smoothly
Do not detox more than once a month.
All in moderation: the optimal period for detox diet is from 3 to 7 days.
New Year’s Eve by the rules
But after getting yourself in order before the holidays, you should follow some rules during the New Year itself, so that you don’t lose the results of your hard work in one evening:
1. Eat before the feast. A festive table is no reason not to limit yourself in food. 3 hours before the celebration, have a light snack, and just before the feast, drink a glass of water and eat an apple.
2. While preparing dishes for the holiday table, chew gum. It is unlikely that during this you will want to snack on smoked sausage or a couple spoonfuls of olivier.
3. alcohol or food? Fans of feasts prefer everything together and more. But we all know the danger of drinking alcohol on an empty stomach, so before you hear the clinking of glasses, it’s better to eat light, lean food.

If you have some free time during the pre-holiday rush, don’t be lazy to read books by world-renowned nutritionists to learn more about detox and its properties:

● Henri Chenault – “Detox.”
