After weeks of overindulging with rich foods like cheese, pastries, chocolates, mash potatoes and gravy as well as carefully paired glasses of wine, the holidays take a toll on our bodies. It’s easy to get caught up in the holiday festivities and let your indulgences get the better of you. But, a new year is here and it’s time to plan for a better, healthier version of yourself.
To kick things off, why not start with a detox or healthy, cleansing drink. These drinks are some of the easiest and helpful ways of delivering nutrient dense food while cleansing the body of harmful toxins like metals, including lead, copper, mercury and aluminum.
Detoxing with drinks is also a great way to lose weight and give your system a much-deserved break from unhealthy food.
We’ve collected our favorite drinks to help you get back on the healthy eating track. Check out our list of post-holiday cleansing drinks to start the year off right.
