I recently read about a toxic cleanse in Whole Living magazine. Is anyone else doing this? Or have any tips or other recipes that I add to this?

    Cleanses are unnecessary, as your liver and kidneys already "cleanse" you every day. There is no pool of toxins in your body that will magically disappear because you fasted on juice, bought a "detox" pill, or whatever the gimmick is.

    Yeah, cleanses are a total scam physically, although like a fast, they may have some spiritual benefits.

    I tried a detox a while back, lasted about three days before I getting very sick. I would not recommend any type of detox, your body does this naturally and there are also foods that are good for your digestive system. I would research medical sights for their opinion on detoxes, they may have better information.
