*To allow easy elimination of waste from the body, drink 200ml warm water to cleanse the gastrointestinal tract and gut.

*Have a bowl of raw fruits; one or two at a time. You can have a bowl of stewed fruits (apple) to cure constipation. The rule with fruits is ‘eat it alone or leave it alone’, and give your system a minimum of one hour to digest. The active microbial enzymes in fruits will also enhance your gut flora.
*After an hour, have a bowl of warm, well-cooked breakfast like an oatmeal, porridge, pancakes, idli, dosa etc. Do not have fruits for breakfast. Ensure your breakfast is warm and cooked and has some salt/sweetener in it. You can add pre-soaked seeds to your breakfast (pre-soaking aids digestion and prevents bloating).
*You can have nuts with fruits (since they come from same food group). Ensure to pre-soak all nuts and dry fruits overnight or at least one hour before consuming them.
