Time to Cleanse Your Gut: Follow This 3-Day Diet to Detox

The basic idea of a gut cleanse is to ban certain foods to ensure that the “bad bacteria” in your gut are starved.

The season is changing. There is a nip in the air already. During this time instead of focusing on the latest fad diet and stressing your already stressed system further, I say you do a gut cleanse instead.

Give your gut the importance it deserves – it is the basis of your health. This is where all that you eat goes first, so your nutrient supply is dependent on gut health. Plus, it is your first line of defence against viruses and bacteria and that is why poor gut health is strongly linked to a compromised immune system.

It also leads to unexplained weight gain or loss, aches and pains, nutrient deficiencies, anxiety and mood swings. Enough reasons to go on a gut cleanse. Right! Besides we all live toxic lives, and our gut bears the brunt of it all the time, so it deserves (needs) a thorough cleanse regularly, particularly like I said during the changing season.
