Drink plain water regularly to cleanse the system, dilute the blood, wash out poisons and prevent

Include in the diet sufficient soluble fiber such as peas, beans, lentils, soya and soya products and
insoluble fiber such as wheat bran and wholegrain cereals and breads. Soluble fiber softens faeces by
absorbing water to slow the rate of digestion which in turn lower blood glucose and cholesterol levels. Insoluble fiber adds bulk to feces and make food pass more
