Advice on the Super Detox

What naturopath Michael van Straten doesn't know about detoxing could fit on to a postage stamp. A practising osteopath, naturopath, acupuncturist and nutritional consultant, he offers joined-up solutions to detoxing that won't leave you gnawing through your mouse-mat by noon.

The usual suspects are all here - eat more (breakfast and grazing), sleep more, go to the gym, etc. We learn new things too - a lettuce sandwich at night helps you to sleep and rubbing your hair roots with onion makes it healthy (not sure about the scent, though).

Van Straten chides us, but nicely, and gives us cheats to power through the dull, fibrous, flatulent reality we all know a proper detox is.
