Are you ready for some holiday detox?

If you went a little overboard over the holiday – or if you’ve still got a few more days to go – Chef Chad Sarno is cooking up a post-holiday detox to get us back on track:



• Dark leafy greens are on the menu. Eating greens like kale, spinach, chard and collards really amps up your vegetable consumption – which you’ll need.

• Stick to whole foods. To give your body a chance to rid itself of all that junk, make sure to incorporate whole grains and fats from foods like avocados, nuts and seeds. Chef Sarno suggests cooking a big pot of brown rice in the beginning of the week and working that into different meals like soups, salads and stir fries.

• Have a drink – of herbal tea, and as much water as you can stand. Also, aim for at least one real juice a day, no sugar added.
