VEGETARIAN EATING PLAN

The RxStar Remedy Detox Vegetarian Plan is a low-glycemic diet designed for The RxStar Remedy Detox Program.  It is an anti- inflammatory diet and supports those who want to reduce their sugar and toxin intake. 

 

How to Follow This Plan

Make sure to download The Herban Alchemist/Rx Remedy APP.  You’ll find detailed daily plan information in the App.

 

During The RxStar Remedy Detox Vegetarian Plan, you will be prompted to follow a diet that includes whole, fresh fruits and vegetables, and plant-based sources of protein, along with plenty of fluids. The recipes in this program are also gluten-free and dairy-free. You can easily make it a Vegan plan by substituting Flax Eggs (instructions included on recipes.)

 

There are meal plans, recipes and shopping lists to get you started. You don’t need to follow the meal plans exactly. You may substitute any plan-appropriate recipe for the suggested meal to suit your taste or make substitutions with ingredients from the “What to Eat” list. Make sure you exclude the foods on the “What Not to Eat List.”

 

Calories are not counted on The RxStar Remedy Detox Vegetarian Plan.  There is no need to be hungry! If you need more food than is on the meal plans, increase the portions or have an additional snack. Similarly, you do not need to eat all the food on the meal plan. If you are not so hungry, it is okay to have smaller portions.

 

Remember to aim for 4-5 small meals daily (per plan recommendations) along with plenty of fluids. Your goal should be 64-80oz. (2-2.5L) of fluids each day, primarily water but tea and broth count too.
