We’ve come across so many detox diets to get that perfect summer body, but what about the after season detox to maintain a healthy lifestyle?

You know you’ve put on weight over the summer when all you can do to run away from the harsh heat here in Qatar is to stay indoors for most part of your day. Staying indoors with less activity can lead to fatigue, being lazy and increase in weight.

Perfecting the summer body is one thing but maintaining that fitness level even after, is whole other concept. After the long summer holidays, most of us are running outdoors for a breath of fresh air in the evenings or just trying to get out for a nice cup of coffee. Or if you’ve been away the entire summer touring the world to take in the various cultures, vacation weight can be a huge issue to deal with.

Nutritionist Camila Herrera gives you an easy detox diet for those who want to start the routine of a healthy lifestyle.
