Before you do that, here&#8217;s something you should know. Your body is perfectly capable of cleansing itself without you taking gallons of juice. It has an extensive detoxification system that works round the clock to ensure you&#8217;re free of all the bad stuff. It&#8217;s also possible that your <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/citrus-diet\/\">detoxification<\/a> system is not working as it should. This is especially true if you&#8217;ve been living off processed foods and not really being careful about what you consume.

If you need a rule of thumb, anything with more than five ingredients you can&#8217;t pronounce is most likely highly processed, so best stay away from it altogether. These foods are loaded with preservatives, chemicals, and artificial flavors, which might affect the way your body processes foods to give you energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Limit dairy products if you can. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, these are high in saturated fat, which can increase your LDL or &#8220;bad&#8221; cholesterol levels (and remember, LDL is the one that clogs up your arteries).

It&#8217;s much easier to resist eating unhealthy foods when they aren&#8217;t easily accessible. Clear out your kitchen cabinets of all junk food and sweets to reduce temptations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eat_Mindfully\"><\/span><b>Eat Mindfully<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stop and think about what you&#8217;re eating. You&#8217;ll enjoy your meals more if you slow down to savor every bite. Think about the ingredients and the effort you put into preparing the meals. Pay attention to how full you feel as you eat. You also tend to eat less when you have to put effort into chewing your food as opposed to just swallowing it whole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to build an attention-grabbing bubble butt, blast away fat that\u2019s stored in all the wrong places, spring-clean your diet, turn back the clock on your skin, skyrocket your self-confidence and shatter your insecurities?

The best way to determine if a food is highly- or minimally-processed is to read the nutrition facts panel and avoid anything with sugar byproducts as main ingredients like high-fructose corn syrup or crystalline fructose. Avoid artificial sweeteners as well as trans fats (hydrogenated oils). Look out for preservatives like BHA, BHT, TBHQ, sodium nitrites, propyl gallate, or others ending in \u2013ate (BHA) and -cide (BHT).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ditch_The_Juice\"><\/span><b>Ditch The Juice<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Juicing fruits and vegetables removes all the beneficial fiber. Fiber is what helps your body break down food and absorb nutrients more efficiently (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/19335713\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). You&#8217;re better off eating whole fruits than drinking their juices.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"On_The_Go\"><\/span><b>On The Go<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don&#8217;t have time to cook, pack raw veggies and fruits in your lunch box so you&#8217;ll always have a healthy option available. Start with the staples, carrots, bell peppers, celery, apples, oranges, and add more as you go along.\u00a0 Cut up whatever&#8217;s in season for variety. You could also try fruit leathers or dried fruits like figs or dates to satisfy your sweet tooth without sabotaging your efforts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=7-Day_Body_Cleansing_Plan\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-37101 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5099-1024x576.png\" alt=\"7-day body cleansing\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5099.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5099-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5099.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Frame-5099.png 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Drink_Water\"><\/span><b>Drink Water<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that your body is made up of 70% water? Water helps flush toxins out of your body, so drink lots daily, especially to support weight loss. You can also replace soft drinks with lemon-infused water for another way to help keep harmful toxins at bay. Try adding some cucumber slices or mint leaves for flavor variation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enjoy_Treats_In_Moderation\"><\/span><b>Enjoy Treats In Moderation<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that weight loss doesn&#8217;t happen overnight, so don&#8217;t be too hard on yourself if you slip up a bit from time to time. A balance between being strict with dieting and eating everything in sight does exist. After all, everyone loves tasty treats occasionally! Just do your best and stay focused during the times when your willpower is really tested.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span><b>The Bottom Line<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 7-day clean eating plan is a great way to kick start a healthy eating habit. Avoid ultra-processed foods, and load up on fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Reduce your portions, and you have a 7-day weight loss meal plan that you can easily stick to even after the cleanse is over.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/first-page-generated?flow=2228&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=7-Day_Body_Cleansing_Plan\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Gif_Blue-1.gif\" alt=\"BetterMe\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"BetterMe | Create Happiness now\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xLxjdQ4DYdg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DISCLAIMER\"><\/span><b>DISCLAIMER:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is intended for general informational purposes only and does not address individual circumstances.
