Do cleanses have any real benefits?
No. The whole basis to this cleansing business is people say it can help things like the immune system, fatigue and depression and it can clean the toxins out of the colon and it can aid in losing weight. There is really no evidence to that at all. Sometimes those cleanses could actually be quite harmful, too. Both in terms of what’s in the cleanse and also in administering them.
Is there any upside to a cleanse?
There is really no good evidence based upon any good research that this stuff makes any difference.
The bottom line on cleanses?
The bottom line is that there isn't any evidence that these work. The people claiming they do have evidence it works are not correct. They can do that simply because they are not regulated.

Again ... what the (insert string of profanity) does this have to do with the OP and thread at hand?0 -

When asked what was the best way to cleanse the body, Mishori was quick to respond.
"Eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly ... Get six to eight hours of sleep and see a doctor regularly."
Dr. Ranit Mishori, a family medicine physician at Georgetown University School of Medicine0 -

My question was for the OP, who listed some very specific things including, if we're reading this right, 3 days of nothing but water.Ok , I will share what I ate today just to make you understand my concept of modification , Eggs - Hard-boiled (whole egg), 1 cup, chopped 211 2 14 17 169 2

are those the winning lottery numbers after what you ate? Or are you writing in binary code?0 -
She copied from her food diary here, so they are the macros for each food.0

There is no logical way one could think the early posts were replies to you. Honestly, nothing you've posted here has a thing to do with this thread and the OP's desire to do a cleanse.0 -
^She also posted her food diary on Youtube, Fox News, CNN, and the President's Twitter page.

this is my idea of a great 3-day cleanse....0

This sounds really miserable. You know, you don't have to be miserable and stuff to lose weight, right?
Just thinking about what you've outlined makes me feel sad.![:\](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")

My first reaction to this thread was to eat a Fiber One peppermint brownie and be very grateful that the whopping 90 calorie prepackaged processed food was not going to send me into some kind of shame spiral. I'm still looking to fill 400 more calories with snacks today even after I eat dinner.
Perhaps I should have some juice. If I cleanse the brownie by bathing it in juice while it's in my stomach, that makes it clean, too, right?

You have to rinse the brownie in a liquor bath to properly cleanse it. Duh.

But I'm at work. I'll have to wait til I get home, and the brownie will already be digested. *sigh* But that would have been a spectacular use of those 400 calories.
Guess my brownie will remain dirty. At least it had lots of fiber.

Why is it that people who want to do these baseless cleanses always want people to join them? Is it for validation? Because misery loves company?
Why do I never see threads that say "I'm going to eat at a reasonable deficit and avoid cravings and misery by including a moderate amount of higher calorie foods I love, who wants to join me?"??0 -
OP looking for cleanse buddies, yet has not been back. Hmmm.0

So many of us are already doing that, the random trolls are just trying to pull us out of the group.0 -
Um, just curious, WHY did this sound like a good idea?0

I did this with whiskey once...it was awesome...had a great time...0
