Detox Myths Debunked: Your Body Detoxes Itself—Try Real Habits Instead
Detox diets and juice cleanses don’t remove toxins or improve health; the body’s liver, kidneys, and other systems already detoxify naturally, and many commercial detoxes are low in calories or carry risks (laxatives, unpasteurized juice, colonics). Instead, adopt evidence-based habits like eating a colorful plant-forward diet, increasing fiber, staying hydrated, practicing deep breathing, and reducing exposure to toxins.
