Hey MFPers.
With the rapid increase of new users there are many posts coming up asking for detox recommendations. I figured this would be a good time to provide some links explaining why you generally don't need to detox or cleanse.
Your body is readily equipped to handle toxins and in the event it cannot, you're in far greater need of medical attention than you are of any particular beverage or liquid diet.
For purposes of weight loss, you're essentially choosing to replace food with liquid calories (depending on the cleanse, but most fall under this category) resulting in what usually amounts to a VLCD. This isn't typically a good idea for a variety of reasons (mood, hunger signaling, skeletal muscle maintenance, performance) and moreover it represents yet another short-cut attempt rather than establishing proper habits.
The intent of my post isn't to insult anyone who comes here with the misinformed belief that they should detox/cleanse. The purpose is to provide information to hopefully save someone the wasted time, money, and potential ill health effects, not to mention the likely weight regain.

Hello to all ladies who have trouble with weight. I am 20 years old, and since I turned 7, I had constant issues with too much weight. I tried many different diets but it was no use. I also tried starvation diet but in the end i got some metabolism disorder and I ended up with additional health problems. I thought I will never get slim until I accidentally found this site. Here is link to it:

It was unbelievable how program for losing weight from this site made me lose weight. I am finally slim, I lost half my weight and feeling perfectly healthy! All this thanks to special diet from this site.
Seems legit.2 -

To make your spam better, you may want to change your ticker so you do not have 69lbs to lose! Kind loses credibility...that is, assuming this post had any in the first place...1 -

I recommend the frozen mint pea detox.... Or pea-tox
Well it's less of a cleanse or detox and more of a tasty snack. Give it a go.0 -

I used to eat them by the cup or bag full easy. Sitting watching a movie or playing a game. Have a large cup or the bag next to me as a snack.
