The 21 Day Detox is a program developed by Dr. Don Colbert to help rid your body of toxins, and these are the recipes that carry it. Detox and cleanse eating is not about starving yourself or living on juice for a week — it is about giving your liver, gut and kidneys the raw materials they need to do the work they already do, three meals a day.
You’ll find green smoothies and fresh juices, warming broths and soups, big leafy salads, and light plant-forward meals built around the foods that support natural detoxification: cruciferous vegetables, dark leafy greens, beets, citrus, garlic, ginger, turmeric and fresh herbs. There are gentle sweet options too, like detox chocolate and fruit-based snacks, for the moments when a cleanse starts to feel like a punishment.
Most of these recipes take under twenty minutes and need nothing more exotic than a blender. Where a recipe calls for a Divine Health supplement, it is usually one of the detox staples Dr. Colbert recommends to his own patients — Fermented Green Supremefood, Fiber Zone Powder or the Detox Starter Pack — and a substitution is always suggested so you can cook from what you already have.
If you want structure rather than a list of recipes, join the free 21-Day Detox Challenge, which walks you through three weeks of detox eating day by day. When you’re ready to move from cleansing into fat-burning, the Keto Zone Recipes are the natural next step, and the Healthy Living Recipes cover everyday family cooking.
