We all know how important it is to stay hydrated, and that plain old water is the key to hydrating our bodies. However, sometimes, your body may crave something a little more robust than just regular old H20.
Detox water is water that is infused with other ingredients, be it herbs, fruit, vegetables or a combo of them all. It can be nice to switch things up and add a little flavor to your water sometimes, but detox water offers more than just an elevated flavor.
In general, detox water is used to flush out toxins and reset the body. One can create a detox water using specific ingredients to best suit particular needs or combat specific ailments. Depending on the ingredients used, detox water may flush toxins, boost the metabolism and/or immunity, and more.
Though you can certainly make very specific, targeted detox waters to meet your body's needs, it can also be helpful to incorporate more general detox waters into your regular routine.
