I'm very new to detoxing, but have heard its many benefits. What do you do or have done before that has proven effective?

    What are the benefits you've heard of and where did you hear of them?

    Yep. :)

    Honestly, there is no need as our bodies do a great job. If you're after an intestinal 'cleanse', just increase your fiber and water intake.

    1) drinking water
    2) nothing
    3) drinking black coffee (it produces that GI effect that some people seem to love so much for some ungodly reason)

    Wait, you're not trying to recover from alcohol or opiate addiction?
    Then you don't need a detox.

    Its a marketing gimmick in the fitness industry. But if you really want to clean out, then i suggest haribo sugar free gummy bears. Lots of great reviews on amazon.

    Oh my god, those reviews, it hurts. Hahahahahahaha. It reminds me of the Olean laden chips of yesteryear, only those provided backdoor oil slicks so bad that your soap would feel greasy. xD

    In college biology, anatomy, and medical terminology they teach that "detoxing" is a bunch of BS. The intestines, liver, kidneys aren't clogged with toxins. If they were, you'd be dead. All detox products do is separate you from your money.

    Haribo stopped making them because of the reviews. Lol. There are still other brands out there :smiley:
