WHY CELERY AND CUCUMBER AND ALMOND SNACKS?
Again, what you are trying to achieve is a detoxification of your body (which involves giving your digestive tract a break). Fiber is very important for the detoxification process. The vegetables recommended on the diet are high in fiber. Celery is an excellent source of vitamin C and a very good source of dietary fiber. It also has properties that are known to reduce blood pressure. Cucumber is also a good source of fiber. Plus, you get the added bonus of vitamin C, silica, potassium and magnesium. Raw Almonds are high in fat, but they also help in losing weight. Getting enough fat in your diet is helpful. A study published in the International Journal of Obesity and Related Metabolic Disorders suggested that an almond-enriched low calorie diet (such at the NuLean Program) can help overweight individuals shed pounds effectively.
