What are good natural detox foods?

I have been staying with a friend for the past few weeks and they do not have a lot of healthy foods on the house - which I am used to eating on a fairly reguarly basis. So, I have been eating a lot of junk. I leave tomorrow and would love to detox my body. However, I do not have the money for one of those detox kits. are there certain foods I can eat that will help?

Responses:

Apple cider vinegar and water is good for detoxing the liver and removing cholesterol and calcium deposits from the arteries and heart. Raw beet juice is good for cleaning the gall bladder, mix with carrot and apple juice because it is very strong. Green vegetables are very good and deodorizing for the body
Get back to eating all those healthy foods, making sure you include a variety of colors. Red and pink protect your heart. That includes watermelon guava, pink grapefruit, fresh tomatoes, strawberries raspberries and beets. Green protects your liver. That includes avocados, green apples, green grapes, honeydews, kiwifruits, limes, green pears, artichokes, green beans and cabbage. The liver detoxes your blood, so focus on these foods for a detox diet. There's a well known cabbage diet. Black protects your kidneys. That includes black beans, chinese olives, black olives, eggplant, black berries, and black currants. White protects your lungs. That includes garlic, ginger, jicama, pears, potatoes, white mushrooms and white corn. Orange protects your spleen. That includes oranges, tangerines, melons, pumpkins, and papaya. Purple protects your brain. That includes grapes, blueberries, purple cabbages, and onions. You can find more great nutrition and detox advice in the book Stop Growing Older.

Green Tea and lots of it. Its an antioxident and floods all impurities out of your system
