    Does anyone have a link to the thread titled "so you want to do a detox". I can't remember the exact title.
    I just spent 15 minutes trying to find it, I'm detoxed out! :tired_face:

    They are a waste of time. They do not "kickstart, speed up, or help you lose weight in any permanent way. Your body has a natural detoxifying system that work just fine.

    They are a fad right now--don't fall into the trap, you can damage yourself.

    I think because CICO is such a simple concept some people feel the need to make it more complicated by doing things like detoxes in the misguided hope that it will do something 'miraculous'.

    I'm trying to bite my tongue watching friends try them on Facebook.

    You have a liver and kidneys that "detox" your body.

    If they are not working, you'd need more than some "detox" bought at a "health food shop" to fix it.
