Question 1

does champs detox drink really work?

Accepted Answer

No way to tell : Unfortunately, dietary supplements are regulated as foods (as opposed to drugs).  As such, they are not required to undergo the same testing (or prove their claims to be true). Also, since no third party testing of their product is required - the ingredients listed don't even have to match what is in the bottle.  Wish I had a better answer ... Good luck!

Question 2

whats a good detox diet?

Accepted Answer

Detox?: What are you trying to detox?  Alcohol? Drugs? Caffeine?  There is no medically valid "detox diet".  Eating a well balanced diet rich in fresh vegetable and fruits and low in meats and fats; and exercise are important for healthy living.

Question 3

what is the fastest detox ?

Accepted Answer

Depends...: It all depends on what you want to detox from. In any case, if you want to go through detox process in a safe way my recommendation is to go to the ed and from there they can refer you to an institution where this can be done safely and under medical monitoring.

Question 4

what exactly is a detox diet?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Depends on what you are trying to achieve. Detox is complex, and different definitions of a detox diet exist. Consider reading dr crinnion's book clean green and lean for more info on detox.

Question 5

i am looking to do a detox/cleanse?

Accepted Answer

Why: This is a popular notion among alternative practitioners but it is based upon feelings but no scientific evidence.  It probably will do not harm but there is not basis for a positive effect except on the bank account of those who advocate this procedure.

Question 6

where can you get a detox for kids?

Accepted Answer

Nutritional support: Detox is a concept of ridding your body of "bad" chemicals. I would caution you against following any advice that involves bowel cleansing as this may harm your child. I did some research and as a Pediatrician I feel the advice in this article is safe and a reasonable plan for children.

Question 7

can i detox from taking corticoids ?

Accepted Answer

Not necessary: There is no detox necessary from corticosteroid medications. If you have been on them for a long time, then it is important that you taper them gradually and not stop suddenly , which can cause illness. Talk to your doctor about this.

Question 8

is the 14 day "cleanse" detox a scam.

Accepted Answer

Cleansing: Yes. Of course. Your body had three systems at least that keep you 'cleansed'.  These are your liver, your kidneys, and your lymph system.  Nature takes care of  this.

Now on a different note. If your diet is full of sugars and other unnatural chemicals then switching to a more natural and healthy diet may increase energy and stamina.

Question 9

what's a great way to naturally detox?

Accepted Answer

Water: Hydration is the cheapest, easiest and probably the least side effects of any detox plan. It's important not to overdo that, so I suggest you use a registered dietitian to assist the other detox agents you might use in addition, to make sure this is done in a safe and effective way

Question 10

how can i help my friend detox from drug use?

Accepted Answer

Detox difficult: If your friend has a serious problem and trusts you, be supportive and get him/her to a detox facility. Depending on what they are on, it may require medical supervision. The hardest thing for us to do, is to convince someone they need help. Sometimes they will listen to a friend much more than a doctor.
Good luck!
