7-Day Detox Plan: Days 1 & 2
Day 1: 600 calories
This is a fasting day. Drink loads of water and herbal teas throughout the day. Breakfast, lunch and evening meal are the same: 1 glass of unsweetened fruit or salt-free vegetable juice plus a carton of natural live yoghurt.
Try to start this diet on a non-working, quiet day and don't worry, it does get easier!
Day 2: 1200 calories
Breakfast:
This is the standard breakfast you'll eat for the rest of the week. 1 portion fresh fruit (vary throughout the week between apple, pear, mango, grapes, pineapple, grapefruit), 2 slices of wholemeal toast spread with low fat cottage cheese, a carton of low-fat live yoghurt, a small glass of skimmed milk and a cup of herb or weak Indian tea without milk or sugar.
Lunch:
1 kiwi fruit, a mixed raw vegetable salad (a bed of iceberg lettuce, filled with grated carrot, celeriac and beetroot, with a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil) plus 150g (6oz) of any steamed vegetables, sprinkled with a chopped clove of garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Herb or weak Indian tea.
Dinner:
50g (2 oz) blueberries and 100g (4oz) unsweetened muesli mixed with a tablespoon of orange juice and a carton of low fat live yoghurt. Herb or weak Indian tea.

Why does it have to be indian tea? I drink a decaff tea black no sugar or milk whats wrong with that? I don't eat garlic I find it an unsociable additive plus it makes me feel nausous. I rarely eat bread and never wholemeal as it upsets my stomach (delicate I suffer from excess acid and I am on medication). Re the skimmed mild I couldn't drink it on it's own I'd rather go without might as well be water as it has not taste I would not buy it specifically.
