The detox allows the toxins to filter out of your body and hopefully you will have more energy and feel better in yourself. It is only 10 days so remember that when you feel you want to digress. This diet is highly nutritious and very good for you so hopefully you will want to adopt some of this into your regular diet. Good Health.
