Cruciferous vegetables (green cabbage, red cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, etc.): they provide vitamin C, soluble fibers with an appetite suppressant effect, and chromium which regulates blood sugar levels. Their sulfur compounds help the digestive system to resurface after excesses. Note: red cabbage is one of the cabbages richest in micronutrients.

Apples contain pectin, a fiber that helps excrete toxins and swells in the stomach when it comes into contact with liquids, which contributes to the feeling of satiety.

5 – LEMON

  • Lemon is probably one of the most well-known detox foods. This citrus fruit has the effect of stimulating kidney activity, which promotes the elimination of toxins.
  • Thanks to the flavonoids it contains, lemon has antioxidant properties that can prevent many diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases.
