1 . Slim Down Detox Water

Basically the starting point for all novice detox drinkers. Two hours before drinking, combine grapefruit, lemon, lime and cucumbers into a pitcher. The drink only takes 10 minutes to prepare and yields 8 servings of this diuretic dream, which guarantees that all moisture will be rapidly flushed from the system.

The fat-burning enzymes of grapefruit plus the healing properties of citrus that calm the internal digestive tract leave you with an all-around healthy detox.
