Detox-Water-Drinks

Detox means nothing else as detoxification the body. The aim is to excrete metabolic products from the body through sweating cures, raw food, drinking cures or fasting.

Well it isn't really the season for detoxification, but still I desperately need it right now. Cause since about over a week I'm sick, first with suffering stomach-digest-problems and now with tiredness and fever. Now I'm at home curing myself and I have been drinking so much teas the last days, that I was looking for something else liquid to help my body. 

The simplest way was water with flavour. To bring the flavour to the water I had to be patient for at least one day. 

I dried different flavours and the day after were my Detox-Water-Drinks finished. 

Now, I just hope they will help my body curing from sickness. 

Here we go with the drinks I made. All with fresh tap water!!!
