One of the ballasts generated by following a detox diet results precisely in the lack of balance that it gives to our health. We must bear in mind that this type of food planning is defined by the massive consumption of both fruits and vegetables, ignoring the intake of some essential macronutrients for the body such as proteins or carbohydrates. This generates a potential rebound effect that can ruin all our efforts. To avoid this circumstance, we must adequately plan the diet after the cleansing regimen.
