    Your body has a liver and kidney, there is no need for any "detoxes"
    Good luck in your healthy journey

    Well, she made an infused water, since it doesn't look like she's eating the fruit. But yes, OP, that's not a detox water and your body doesn't need to detox any more than it already is doing on its own.

    Changed it to "infused". Thanks for the suggestion!

    Yummmmmm, me too!

    But my husband makes lemon mint water and it's kind of always in our fridge. It's AMAZING and so flavorful. Tonight I'm going to save it for after my meal as a pallet cleanser and try to avoid an evening snack!

    Hi ReaderGirl its actually a Core water bottle from 7-11. Something similar to Voss water. I just pull off the tag and add fruit. Its pretty hard to remove the fruit after so I just toss it after 2 to 3 uses.

    I wanted to add mint to my water but I could never find it at my local grocery store (ah hem Food Lion lol) I read that grapefruit is great to. Help burn the fat they say? But Im sure mint would go taste with it.

    No, any fruit or herb you add to water is for flavor only. No magical fat burning effects. But it does make the water taste great. I put all kinds of different things in my water depending on the season and I grow my own mint so I have it fresh at all times. Just like a regular house plant I keep it on the ledge in my kitchen. Super easy and handy.

    My favorite is cucumber, lemon, limes, mint and strawberries. But i always take the peels off of my citrus it makes my water bitter after awhile. Inmake my infused waters in a 1gallon pitcher and left over night it wouldnt be drinkable with those butter peels.
