    If you are addicted to drugs or alcohol a detox might be necessary - but should done by professionals in a medical setting, not by drinking some magic potion you found on the internet.

    yup

    It depends on why you want or think you need a detox, have you abused your body? drugs? alcohol? In some cases a week of detox can be okay. Not long term, just a cleanse to reboot...but it all depends on what type of detoxing you are considering, there are healthy means of detox.

    I highly recommend a detox/cleanse, OP. If you have 10 days, I know a great cleanse you can use to purge your digestive system's vessicles of latent toxic poisons. It's almost impossible to lose weight without doing that, which is what a lot of the people in this thread don't realize.

    I've lost 20 pounds of the month without doing a cleanse so no it's not impossible to not lose weight without it. If that's the case with you you need to examine your diet

    I've heard of this cleanse. Is it the peep cleanse?

    I thought it was the sugar free gummy bear cleanse?

    But think of the weight of those toxins that are still left in your system! If you had used a cleanse with a monoglucosaccharide scrubbing process, you would have no toxins left in your metabolic ducts and intestinal pathways. Those toxins provide an excellent adhesion source for fats and other weight-bearing molecules which can completely disrupt the body's enzymatic processing. I really think you need to do some more research on bio-accumulating toxins and their affect on weight-loss efforts!

    Well I'm 23 years old.... I don't "abuse" alcohol, but I definitely have my crazy weekends here and there. I have decided to give up alcohol during this process because I want my body to be at its "best". I know the body naturally removes waste and toxins from your body, but I was just wondering if maybe a little boost would help even more.

    Definitely, OP! Glad you came back. You can totally kickstart your alimentary processing with my cleanse! It's quite energizing.

    Right! We're not talking about getting over a hangover or a rough weekend. Medical detox in a hospital setting might be necessary to prevent death from delirium tremens and grand mal seizures. I don't know what this other detox thing is.

    No, no, a thousand times no. There is no need to detox, reboot, or kick start anything. That's not how it works. No magic required. Calories in / calories out, time & patience.

    I can't tell if you're joking or not. You must be. Right?

    No worries! He does have a nice new beard. Watch for him on the threads; he's legendary. :) Perhaps he will make an appearance if we nicely ask?

    I think my cleanse is superior in that these gummy bears are available year round. So you can cleanse whenever the mood moves you.

    And moves you.

    And moves you.

    Ummmm peeps are now becoming year round - they just announced the new fall flavors. Pumpkin of course, I think a caramel apple one and I forget the 3rd.

    There are good and bad Detox's out there. The post about the extra weight loss for a detox is true. I work with fitness and nutriton specialists all day. I have done a detox and plan to do another in 2 weeks. It helps you feel great and you learn about some food sensitivities you don't realize you have. LIFETIME Fitness offers an amazing Detox, tools, online resources and lots of support. Good luck. :)
