How to Detox Your Body With Vegetables
At Saffron we are obligated to offer you the best possible ways to have and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Every day, your body accumulates innumerable toxins. Toxins that accumulate in your body include metallic deposits such as aluminum, mercury, copper, and lead you take in from food and air. These substances can cause health problems such as cancer, heart disease and allergies. Detoxification is a method of nourishing, resting and cleaning your body from the inside out. There are numerous supplements and body wraps which can help you detoxify, but these remedies can be expensive. Luckily, nature has an answer to this problem, in the form of healthy vegetables.

Step 1
Add half a cup of broccoli to your diet every day. Broccoli includes an active ingredient called sulforaphane, which can help your body produce enzymes called phase II enzymes that detoxify cancer-causing toxins.

Step 2
Add an ounce of chopped garlic to your daily meals. Garlic contains the active ingredient curcumin which is a natural antibiotic and can help detoxify your blood of toxins. Add it to pasta, casseroles or soups.

Step 3
Eat a cup of cooked artichokes every day. Artichokes contain a phytochemical called cynarin, which helps support your body's natural detoxification and elimination processes. It helps protect and detoxifies your liver while cleansing your digestive system.

Step 4
Drink a cup of natural, unsweetened aloe vera juice daily. Aloe vera contains potent polysaccharides which can enhance your immune system to produce more white blood cells to help your body fight disease-causing toxins that enter your body.

Step 5

We are Saffron Restaurants and Bar, believe that a healthy diet equals healthy living. In our present society eating healthy isn’t encouraged due the fast paced lives and schedules people easily go for what is available and easy e.g junk food. One of the best ways having a healthy diet is eating more vegetables and fruits. It's hard to argue with the health benefits of a diet rich in vegetables and fruits: Lower blood pressure, reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, some cancers, lower risk of eye and digestive problems; and a mellowing effect on blood sugar that can help keep appetite in check.
Health experts advice that people should aim for at least nine servings (at least 4½ cups) of vegetables and fruits a day and potatoes don't count. Go for a variety of kinds and colors of produce, to give your body the mix of nutrients it needs. Your best bets are dark leafy greens, cooked tomatoes, and anything that's a rich yellow, orange, or red color like tomatoes, broccoli, carrots, cabbage, lettuce etc
