What is Detoxinista?

This website was created to help people eat better—without relying on quick fixes or detox fads. Megan wasn’t raised as a healthy eater and struggled with binge eating after too many attempts at strict “clean eating” protocols. So you won’t find any drastic cleanses or strict guidelines here.

The goal here at Detoxinista is to help you avoid a toxic relationship with food while encouraging you to eat more whole foods that nourish your body.

In fact, your body already has everything it needs to detoxify, including organs such as the skin, liver, and kidneys. You can support this process by gradually adding more vegetables and fiber to your everyday meals, while also gently reducing your intake of refined flour and sugar. (There’s no all-or-nothing mentality here— please feel free to indulge, too.)

These recipes will help you do just that, without feeling restricted. Because if it’s a struggle, your healthy lifestyle won’t last! If you have special dietary needs, such as requiring gluten-free or dairy-free recipes, you’ll find plenty of options here as well.

Use the dietary guide below to find recipes that suit your needs.
