Triphala water

Soak in Triphala powder in water overnight and drink it the next morning. Soluble fibres of Triphala will cleanse your gut.

Skip Coffee

Junk food can leave your body dehydrated. Beverages like coffee can make it worse. Instead drink plain water.

Skip solid food

If you want to give your stomach a break, try to only have liquid foods the next day. Soups, smoothies (sugar-free) and dalia can be some good options.

Work it out

Exercising is one way to balance calorie surplus. Utilise all that extra food to get energy. If a full workout isn't possible, go for a brisk walk or biking.

Salt water gargle

Don't forget your mouth as it is in dire need of a detox as well. After brushing your teeth, gargle with sea salt water.

Fruits

Next day, eat high-fibrous fruits such as kiwi and bananas. Or you can have fruits with high water content like watermelon to rehydrate your body.
