What is detox on Instagram – Italian Cuisine – Italian Cuisine

The most cool and social soul of detox and why it is easier to follow a diet when we are connected

We have long talked about detox and the need to cleanse our body after an intense period like that of winter holidays. No to alcohol, caffeine, teina, sweets, fats and spicy foods. Yes to a good hydration with natural water, herbal teas, green tea, detox and centrifuged smoothies. But before we get serious about it (and in this article you will find all the information to start the program) we must prepare ourselves in the best way. Or, connecting to the network.

Sharing, first of all

The main obstacle to achieving our goals is ourselves. Or rather our willpower that seems to fail just when it would serve more. When we decide to follow a diet such as detoxification, we must prepare to resist temptation that will make things complicated. To reduce them to a minimum, let's make things clear with the people around us. We inform everyone about our upcoming program asking to help us achieve the result we have set ourselves.
It will be important not to continue receiving invitations to dinner, last second aperitifs and various toasts. Even aunts, mothers and best friends will have to respect our new rules: eating and drinking are not the only good excuses to see each other!

Motivation is online

Once we have the complicity of the people closest to us, we must focus on concentration and our ability to keep motivation high. One of the best methods to do it is keep in touch with those who are doing a similar path to ours. Sharing the objectives, the results achieved, but also the mutual encouragement, are essential to get to the bottom of our program. The best and most effective sharing tools are forums and social networks like Facebook and Instagram.
On the first, we can find groups and pages, while on Instagram we can follow the hashtags that best identify the community we want to contact.
In the gallery below, some posts that respond to the hashtag #detox where to find the right inspiration to start a detoxifying period.

Detox is not the same as a diet – Italian Cuisine

After the parties and big binges it takes a bit of detox. Here are 10 foods that should not be missing at the table.

The parties are over, but the extra pounds remain. But do not be alarmed, the important thing is to immediately run for cover with a little 'physical activity and a correct and more balanced diet. Let's talk about detox.

Fasting yes or no?

According to some nutritionists it is important to detoxify the organism once a month (even better once a week) with a day of fasting. For 24 hours we should simply feed on teas and centrifuged. An impossible undertaking but with time it becomes a good habit and not a great sacrifice.
Another school of thought advises instead to never skip meals, but to eat simply differently. 5 meals a day, well distributed and not excessive.

What does detox mean?

The detox foods are all those foods that help to cleanse the body from waste and toxins, thus preventing premature aging of the body and stimulating cell turnover.
You can detoxify yourself from food, alcohol, smoking and in general from all the habits that hurt our body.
As for the diet, detoxification from excesses of calories and fat accumulates means to drink a lot, consume low-calorie foods, use a few condiments and prefer light cooking.

Detox, not diet

You can do detox for 24-48 hours at most. Never go further because it is not good, indeed!
Detoxifying for a couple of days does not mean following a real diet. In a few hours you can eliminate toxins and you can "deflate", but to lose weight and lose weight you must follow a food plan consistently and for a medium-long period of time.
Following very low-calorie diets for more than two days can induce a state of ketoacidosis and cause an increase in the toxins produced. After a week there is the risk of demolishing the body proteins to produce energy and the demolition of the muscles leads to the production of nitrogenous waste.
