With each passing year, detox diets are gaining more popularity.
Ever wondered why?
We live in a world that is progressively becoming polluted and unhealthy. We are exposed to toxic chemicals and particles every day that we are not even aware of. The air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat have all become contaminated and it is time we redesigned our daily routine. From eating healthy home-cooked meals to exercising daily, simple changes to our lifestyle can help us stay healthy. When people consider their health and wellbeing a priority, detoxing becomes a habit.
Detox programs are not new to us. We all try to eliminate pollutants from our bodies in different ways. However, it is important to learn natural techniques to detox rather than relying on artificial means.
One way to detox your body naturally is by switching to a detox diet. Choosing locally grown organic produce to cook your meals is a start. There are many food items that you can prepare at home which help cleanse your digestive system and thereby your whole body. Fresh juices, smoothies, fiber-rich foods, etc are some food items that we need to include in our meals as part of our detox diet.
Although your home-cooked meals are sure to be healthy and nutritious, you may find limited options while eating out while on a detox diet. But not anymore.
At our wellness center in Dubai, we have our own detox kitchen. The 100 cafe is our take at a cozy restaurant that focuses on providing scrumptious meals that are nutritious and detoxing. Each of our dishes is thoughtfully created using fresh local produce as well as quality foods sourced directly from their country of origin.
If you are craving some delicious and nutrient-rich bites while away from home, here are some of our signature dishes that you will love to have-
- Bluemoon Oats
A surprise twist on traditional oatmeal. This delicious breakfast dish consists of oats soaked in cashew milk overnight with natural blue spirulina, cinnamon, Madagascan vanilla pods, sweetened with maple syrup, and topped with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and goji berries.
- Acai Bowl
An all-time favorite detox meal from our kitchen. An antioxidant, our Acai is blended with banana and a splash of apple juice, topped with blueberries, goji berries, cacao nibs, coconut flakes, and peanut butter. The dish is vegan and gluten-free.

Enjoy a yummy and nutritious bite of our vegan cheese sandwiches. Our sourdough sandwich is filled with homemade vegan cheese of cashew nuts, nutritional yeast, and probiotics.
