Detox Diet for Bride-to-be

That dewy angelic skin, silky hair, strong nails and flat tummy can be the result of a solid Bridal Detox plan.

- Dt. Manoli Mehta

For many brides, setting the date means committing to a glaring deadline: that day you will want look the most incredible you ever have in your life. It’s no secret that engaged women often go to extremes to achieve perfection: crash diets, intense workouts, serious cleanses, and dramatic treatments to fix every problem spot. Couple that with the stresses of wedding planning, and a bride’s beauty quest can run her dry.

Nutritionist Manoli Mehta agrees: the goal for slimming down and getting that bridal glow should be to get healthy, not hangry. The gatekeeper to the looking and feeling your best (and let’s be real, maintaining your antibridezilla cool) is taking a few extra minutes a day to nourish yourself.

Definition of ‘Detox’

Firstly, let’s be clear about our definition of the word ‘detox’. The concept of detox is simple and not faddy; focus on eating whole unprocessed foods. This means filling your diet with an abundance of vegetables, wholegrains, healthy fats and lean proteins whilst cutting back on sugar and bad fats, which are well known to promote good health.

Sticking to this way of eating will not only help to futureproof your long-term health but also promote mood, energy levels, weight loss, healthy skin, hair and nails.

Healthy eating should be seen as a collection of small changes that span your entire lifetime. Getting married offers the perfect incentive to change the way you eat and the sooner you adopt this way of eating the better.

In preparation for your wedding, start adopting a healthy way of eating as soon as possible.
