  Choose black tea instead of coffee in the morning and drink cold tea with your meals instead of soda. Black tea is full of antitoxins called flavonoids and can actually detoxify your body, making it run smoother and increase metabolism. Coffee actually adds toxins to the body and tends to drag you down as it depletes the body of some vitamins.
