When you detox quickly or have excess toxins to clear out, you may experience muscle ache, headache, tiredness and irritability. Furthermore, you may also have a change in bowel movements and may feel irritable.
Do not cut on everything from your diet all at once. Instead, start reducing the intake of the items you need to avoid, one at a time.
While you can feel left out because of not consuming certain foods that you like during detox, you can substitute them with healthy alternatives. You can even make your partner or loved ones to detox with you some days.
