5 foods and drinks that can help detoxify your body after a late night party:
1. Water:
The simplest option to indulge in a cleanse after a feast is to hydrate your body. This can protect your body from any kind of uneasiness or indigestion you may be feeling. If you have consumed too much of alcohol, your body definitely needs water since alcohol is a diuretic. It helps you keep hydrated. Also, if you have been eating heavy, oily and greasy, junk food, your body might need water to digest it. If possible you can also have warm or lukewarm water. Thus, water works as a great detoxifier.
2. Limit processed food:
After you have indulged in heavy food and sweetened drinks without even thinking you should think about your body and health for sometime. These foods are extremely unhealthy and you should avoid them for some days. Instead eat light and nutritious foods. Stay away from added sugar and processed foods as they only lead to weight gain and excessive calories. Home cooked food is the best.
3. Probiotic drink:
Some probiotic drinks can be helpful with hangovers, bloating, heartburn and indigestion. Probiotics are great for a detox. They eliminate toxins from your body. Try eating some yoghurt, pickles and kefir. This can help make you feel light.
