According to dr. Endang Darmo Utomo, Sp.GK, Clinical Hospital Nutrution of Siloam Hospitals Lippo Village (SHLV) Karawaci Tangerang, including detox diets are not done in the long run, but only a few days (less than 5 days).

To start a detox diet also requires a long preparation, can be up to 7-10 days. The trick to not consume caffeine, sugary foods (sugar intake with high-yield), and refined sugar (pure sugar). Food must be consumed unprocessed foods, all fresh (not canned or other containers). Sign in intermediate stages, detox dieters should eat raw and organic foods made during the three days.

Unlike the era Aryuveda, detox diets today do not eat wheat. Consumption of foods high in fiber are removed. This makes the energy decreases so it is very likely the condition of the body becomes very drop. To avoid such incidents, it is advisable for people who do detox to implement it at the weekend (twice a year) so as not to interfere with the activity.

But according to Endang, if detox is only done once in a while, the offender will not receive benefits. Like for example, for 6 months the person is not maintaining his diet and eat foods high in fat, containing alcohol, in place of unhealthy eating. After that, during the three days he suddenly does not eat (do a detox). What happens is that the detox would not be too influential on his body, as long as six months before his body was absorbing all kinds of toxins that come from food.
So it's good, healthy lifestyles was conducted in a lifetime. "Once again, if it does not change the pattern of his life, do not do it!" Said Endang.

Not everyone can do the detox, call it middle-aged people who have less and less digestive ability. So if their food intake slightly, the more disturbed digestion. But, if earlier the parents of this excess carbohydrates and body condition can be normalized with this detox, it does not matter.

 
The children were the same. Because of calories produced from eating fruits or vegetables are also not big enough for those who are in the han of growth. Those aged 20 years to apply the detox ataslah safe.

Addition, people with diabetes who do detox just by eating fruits is also recommended to balance the intake with vegetables. Because fruit contains a lot of sugar (fructose disankarida) and although sugar is from fruit, sugar content is still converted in the body into sugar, instead of other substances. It can actually damage the diabetes.

Then those who suffer from high cholesterol levels. Doing a detox diet worsened the conditions of cholesterol (trioglisrtik), especially if applied when the person does not move much. To help the detox process, usually people with kidney failure to consume beverages that contain diuretics (drugs that can increase the speed of formation of urine) to help her pee-pee. Myth, frequent urination accelerate the removal of toxins in the body. Yet the excessive consumption of water is very dangerous for kidney patients. In addition to diuretics, laxatives (laksansia) is also not recommended. Just as the diuretic, laksansia trigger a person to frequent bowel movements.
