Is a New Year Detox a Good Idea?

The New Year is upon us. And this means health “gurus” bombarding us with reasons why we need to stock our fridges with kale and our social media contacts proudly showing off pictures of weird foods labelled “#cleanse”.

But despite the media advocating fashionable foods such as Quinoa and Bush Tucker Trial-ish green juices, the fact still remains that a balanced diet and an active lifestyle is the basis to good health.

According to our Stoke on Trent chiropractor, if you want a health boost after a heavy Christmas, you should implement a diet rich in fresh fruit and vegetables and exercise regularly. And the advice from the NHS is the same.

There doesn’t have to be any dramatic detoxing or eating foods that you struggle to pronounce – just a healthy diet and regular exercise.
