4. Detox diets don't work
Detox diets are based on the idea that toxins build up in the body and can be removed by eating, or not eating, certain things. However, there's no evidence that toxins build up in our bodies. If they did, we would feel very ill.
Detox diets may lead to weight loss because they involve restricting calories, cutting out certain foods altogether, such as wheat or dairy, and eating a very limited range of foods. "Detox diets do not work," says Arens. "They are, in effect, a form of modified fasting."0 -
For those old enough and with good enough taste in the Funnies, remember one of Opus's diets, "Figs, Frogs Legs, and Flatulence"...
oh... and piling it on a bit:
