Detox Water

If you’re like me, you have seen a lot lately about cleanses and detoxes for your body to keep you healthy.  I have found a solution to make your own healthy all natural cleanse at home. This is something you can drink once a month or once a week.

Items needed:
4 limes
4 lemons
1 cucumber
1 package of fresh mint
1 gallon of water
1 gallon pitcher
Directions:
Fill the gallon pitcher up with water.  Slice the lemons, limes, and cucumbers, and place in water.  Add 3-4 stalks of the fresh mint to the water. Let chill 1-2 hours in the refrigerator. Drink up to 8 glasses a day.
Enjoy.

  1. That’s looks good with the mint, Amy! Do you think a splash of cranberry juice would work with this? I know it’s been touted as having good cleansing properties, too, and I really like the flavor. Just curious!

    • Oh yes. Or even fresh cranberries. The mint is pretty strong so a touch of sweetness may just balance that out. Great idea. Thx Gail.

  2. How long do you have to take the drink? Can you eat anything?

    • Typically a week. But if u like it u can drink it everydsy. Yes definitely eat. U may want to be more mindful about wat u are eating. Fruits and veggies are always best.

  3. Hello — I just started drinking this water yesterday, and I’ve noticed that I have a headache that won’t go away (I’m not taking anything for the headache – I’m afraid I’ll mess up the detox process). I also feel a lot tired and sort of “out of it” — would this be part of the detox process, and can I assume that it will go away probably after today?

      I am not certain its from the detox since its all natural. Did u stop drinking sodas? That can cause headaches if you are used to the caffiene and then don’t have any. Make sure u are eating with it too.

  4. Sounds great… Thx
