Apart from having too much caffeine which will leave you jittery and unable to sleep, diet pills often have chemicals in them. Many diet pills are bought online and to be honest, you have no idea what is inside of them.
Try and eat well. Cut out carbs, sugars and processed foods. Eat raw and organic foods, and as much fruit and vegetables as you can. Juice, and make vegetable juices. Green leafy vegetables are excellent. Make a green smoothie. Eat plenty of fiber, nuts and grains, as fiber will get your bowels moving regularly.
Drink lots of water. Apart from the above recipes you can really add any kind of herb to hot water to cleanse, aid digestion and speed up your metabolism. Try mint, sage or rosemary, they are all good for you. Ginger, as above, should become a part of your regular diet. And don’t forget the very tried and tested lemon water, hot or cold. If you make lemon water or lemon tea, use the whole lemon and grate some of the lemon rind into your drink.
