Discover all our Detox weekend in the Netherlands holidays

Detox Weekends the Netherlands

Our Detox weekends are ideal for people who are new to detoxification and cleansing. A great starting point for many health goal and combining detox meals or juices with a range of (holistic) therapies for cleansing the body, mind and spirit. You can expect improved health on all levels including internal balance and increased energy and vitality. An intro to Detox is less intensive than a comprehensive Detox programme, but it is a perfect option for those who don’t have much time or want to feel the positive effects of a short cleaning. 

A detox usually entails juice fasting (fasting on juices), but it can also mean consuming a light, plant-based diet and avoiding coffee, alcohol and processed foods. On a detox holiday or weekend, you will be detoxifying your body. A brief period without food – or with very little of it – gives your body the chance to recoup and rid itself of all toxins stored within.

Detoxification  

Many of the things we consume, for example coffee, alcohol, sugar, meat and wheat, are difficult for our bodies to digest and process. And the artificial additives food contains these days, such as hormones, preservatives, pesticides and chemicals, are all toxins that are foreign to our bodies. When our bodies don’t know what to do with them, they build up in our tissues, organs, blood and intestines. This causes all kinds of complaints and illnesses; from stomach, bowl and kidney issues to weight gain, fatigue, headaches, eczema and sleeping difficulties. Psychological conditions can also be caused by excess toxins. 

Healthier and lighter thanks to detox 

A brief period without food – or with very little of it – gives your body the chance to recoup and rid itself of all toxins stored within. A cleansed, healthier, energised and more efficient body is not the only benefit to a detox. Detoxing also helps rebalance the gut flora, making it more effective, improving metabolism and immunity. Some people can also lose weight after a detox – a welcome side effect for many!
