You can "consider" and "believe" whatever you'd like, but it's unclear why anyone else should consider your beliefs as having a foundation in fact.
To each their own. I just was offering support to another MFP member with something that works for me. Wishing you a great day and the best of luck on your MFP journey.

If these "better food choices" are so vastly superior than eating all those "toxins", then why do you only do it for 5-7 days out of the month?0 -

So, what are some of the chemical-free foods you do eat during your cleanse? What's your favorite sugar-free fruit?

Your funny! It's not a cleanse just a break from eating processed foods. I make a pretty good spaghetti squash and portabella mushroom burgers with lettuce. :O)0 -

Given the lack of clarity about what you consider a toxin and how this actually works for you, I'm not sure this qualifies as useful support. It's like answering a question about how I can learn to fly with an anecdote about how I like to put my shoes on my hands because it allows me to pretend that my feet are actually floating off the ground.
Detoxing isn't real. The fact that you consider sugar and "chemicals" (all chemicals, even those in vegetables?) to be toxins doesn't really address the main topic of the conversation.0 -

The questions asking about the toxins serve to illustrate the fact that no one ever answers that question. They don't know any specific toxins they are trying to eliminate, it's a just a vague term that sounds important.
one day someone will tell us. one day. i am really curious as i never detoxed before so just thinking what on earth is lurking in my bod that they are getting rid of. Going to ask my doctor for a toxin test.
OK, clearly you are not understanding. It's a mythical boogey man. There are no toxins lurking in your body. Anything your body needs to rid itself of, it does so through bathroom visits and sweating and in an emergency, vomiting. You don't need a toxin test.
noooooooooooooooo i want to feel special and get a toxin test.0 -

Sorry, what are the chemical-free foods you're eating during your break?
Spaghetti squash has 2.76g of sugar per 100g serving. Lettuce has 1.19g per 100g serving, but I'll grant that you're probably not putting 100g of lettuce on a burger. Portabella has 2.5g of sugar per 100g. You're not doing a very good job of avoiding sugar with your cleanse break.0 -
