    I think the main point is here is that your body already cleanses for you
    if your body didnt detox itself... well you would be dead. just sayin :glasses:

    Yes and the chemicals that are not cleansed from your body naturally cause illness and disease like cancer. I'm not advocating a detox for weight loss purposes only pointing out that the human body does not effectively detox itself.

    What chemicals are not removed from the body that would require a detoxification process?

    name one.

    Anyone, name a single toxin that is built up in your body that drinking fruit pulp will rid you of, but that your body will not take care of on its own.

    I'll wait. It'll give Jof a break

    The ones that are responsible for undead unicorns. The name escapes me at the moment.

    taking up the crusade I see?
  • Wow, man, do you all need to pile on? I actually agree with you but your self righteous pestering of this woman is the exact doctrinaire attitude you don't like about dr. Oz. repeatedly saying "please repost the results" is transparent and snarky. There's no warmth to it. How about "that's good, but I don't ink it wil help in the long run". ?

    Actually, she is successfully practicing a CBT weight loss technique in which you build up willpower and dieting prowess.
    She is also giving herself, briefly, that feeling of lightness we all have on a good day.

    Show some manners and support for the person, if not the technique.

    It is kind of entertaining. So far, out of the eleventy billion cleanse threads, the responses have been:
    -99.9% silence
    -'casein'
    -caffeine
    -bad thoughts/feelings

    I don't think those last three count.

    Thank you for openly sharing your experience. Today is my first day on this site and if the comments you received are the types of support you get here, I think I'll pass. I had plan to try the Dr. Oz detox before I read your post and I still want to try it. I wish you well with your new healthy lifestyle.

    Dont leave.Most people on Mfp are supportive..just use the ignore feature on those who think its 'entertaining' to be rude.

    ok, then please explain what toxins a cleanse gets rid of that your body does not naturally get rid of on its own?

    Why did you even post your experience? You're not helping anyone. Those that follow blindly won't fix their real problem. It's a band-aid on a wound. You knew there would be a lot of drama. Sounds like you were just really bored. Well, I expected more gifs, but the butthurt was too much tonight. Good luck!

    Because she has a right to post HER experience as much as you had the right NOT to read it...MAYBE you all MISSED the part where she said she was sharing her experience..NOT RECRUITING PEOPLE TO DRINK THE BIG BAD MEAN OLE VEGETABLES!!!!!

    TRUTH

    Name one chemical that is not naturally removed from the body that can only be removed via a detoxing process like that and I will literally write you and the OP a letter in apology.

    TRUTH

    If this is the TRUTH then how about you name some the toxins you're cleansing? Come on, people are waiting... Oh wait, you have me on ignore, but all you others feel free to chime in.

    Funny how you guys like to shoot your mouth off about toxins but immediately become mute when asked to elaborate.


    ETA: Slow pony <_> beat by a few other posts.

    show support for what? A cleanse that cost her 16.00 a day and she then admitted that it probably "did nothing" to help with anything. she lost a total of four pounds over three days, which was probably all water weight. this "cleanse" did nothing to put her on a long term path to sustainable, long term weight loss.

    Also, when someone post something like this, why is everyone just expected to nod there head and say "great job OP, good luck on your cleanse journey"…then some newbie is going to come in here and think that this is a legit way to lose weight, which it is not….

    sorry it is a public forum and people are free to post about the detriment of this supposed "program"….

    Warmth? MFP not kumbaya enough for you?

    If correcting misinformation is perceived as 'harsh' by you, you might just be in the wrong the place.

    TRUTH

    And you seriously believe that a few days consuming nothing but blended fruits/veggies eliminates these heretofore unnamed "toxins" or "chemicals" from your body that wouldn't otherwise be eliminated while eating a well-balanced diet of regular food?

    Do you also believe that cinnamon and/or cayenne pepper increases your metabolism?

    (How is it I'm supposed to phrase this so as not to offend anyone?)



    Uh...that's good, but I don't [th]ink it will help in the long run.



    Actually, no...it's *not* good. It's a complete fabrication and it completely ignores solid science that thoroughly debunks it. I'm sorry that you're wrong, but it doesn't change the fact that you're still wrong.

    TL;DR - Not TRUTH...but FALSE.

    TRUTH
    Please name ONE toxin. If this is the truth like you claim, then obviously you must know. Come on, name one. Just one.

    Oh, now your knickers are all in a twist, and you are yelling at people AFTER you chastised us all for not being warm enough. It would be funny, if it weren't so damned predictable.

    Wayfarin.

    A detox can help clear wayfarin from you system much quicker than allowing your body to process it naturally. At least it helped my brother out.

    Three days was all he could take...things get kinda liquid. But felt significantly better after.

    isn't wayfarin a blood thinner?
