    Do you have working organs? Yes or No?

    If you answered yes - they do all the detoxing you need
    If you answered no - you gonna die, maybe go see a doctor.

    Agreed...

    there is a group here in town *cough* simply FL that is advertising a detox...they were low on my list of things to respect but now they are on the bottom...

    I keep trying to get a pic on my phone to post on FB but hard to do when I am driving...

    Your body knows exactly what to do, even if your brain is not up to scratch.

    So much negativity! Well I am currently a nursing student in microbiology and heavy folks do tend to have more unneeded microorganisms in their gut, so it is recommended to get the good microbiota in check and up to proper levels while lessening the bad. The basic one used before colonoscopies is good. Mixing something like miralax with gatorade and clearing yourself out for a day. You must watch your diet and up your intake of probiotics for a few weeks post. Limit (or abstain from) red meat as well.

    Nope. Sorry. They all do more harm than good.

    As a nursing student, you should stop spreading medical misinformation.

    I like using diet teas I find in the organic section at the grocery store. They are usually 10 day cleanses that work really well. They don't make you lose weight, but help clean out your system and they make and keep my stomach flat.

    I would never drink tea again if I had to do this...

    This sums it up. Anyone who says otherwise should be disregarded.

    I had to laugh at this. Just an hour ago someone told me the same thing when I told them that detoxes are nonsense. This pic would have really came in handy.

    What do you know, a tea that keeps your stomach flat. Who knew.
