As the shift to holistic and taking care of oneself as a whole continues, people are increasingly seeking ways to fulfil these needs through travel. This is because it provides a break from everyday routine and gives people the chance to step back, take care of themselves as well as be taken care of. As a result, a number of wellness travel trends have emerged. Among such emerging trends is Sugar Detox.
Sugar Detox, as the name suggests, is all about what people put into their bodies. These types of detox retreats are aimed at helping people uncover and identify unusual places they can find sugar in food, and then detox at the same time. Sugar-free diets are high in fat and protein, designed to leave guests sated despite the restrictions. To complement the nutrition component programmes include a bevy of activities such as yoga, meditation, acupuncture, energy healing and massage, making it easy to forget that you cannot have a slice of cake for dessert.
Sugar detoxes, offered at many high-end spa and wellness resorts help to curb cravings, and offer advice on how to spot hidden sugars in the foods we buy day-to-day. These detox holidays promise to deliver clearer skin, increased energy and a more efficient digestive system. The popularity of detox holidays derives from the health benefits through good nutrition, carefully chosen treatments and well-being activities such as yoga to achieve mental clarity, body detoxification and stress reduction.
