Breakfast: Nonfat cooked cereal, such as steel-cut oatmeal or cream of wheat. Egg whites with vegetables. Fresh seasonal fruit if you want it.

Lunch and dinner: Brown rice with black beans is going to be your go-to meal this week. Remember, it’s only 4 days, so even if you eat them every day, sometimes twice a day, it will get only so boring. Brown rice with black beans is based on an Indian diet staple called kicharee, which is essentially pureed rice and beans with powerful spices. The taste and texture (not far from baby food) are challenging for Westerners, but a dish of plain rice and beans works equally well. The combination is ideal for keeping blood sugar stable because they’re high in fiber, so they are digested slowly; and beans provide the protein you need for energy. Other possible go-to meals are nonfat vegetable soup (such as minestrone) and salad with nonfat dressing (such as a squeeze of lemon and drop of honey).

3. Drink 1½ cups prune juice on the evening of the fourth night. Nature’s laxative will give your digestive system one more sweep before you welcome a wider variety of foods back into your diet. It goes without saying: You’ll want to clear your schedule this evening.

4. Avoid these foods, which interfere with the detox:

Bread, crackers, or any baked goods

Meats, fats, and oily foods (such as butter, yogurt, nuts, oils, cheese, pizza)

Sprouts, pickles, and vinegar

Cold drinks, cold foods, caffeine, and alcohol

White sugar

Creamy or spicy foods
