Question 1

does oranges also works likes a  detox for the body ?

Accepted Answer

No. We are not tox'd: Humans and other living beings are absolutely amazing in that they routinely take in foods (raw materials), keep the needed and useful elements, and remove the unneeded parts (waste products). Life processes are complicated, but except in cases of gene mutations, they do not leave people full of "toxins." Usually, the one thing that detox programs will remove is, of course, money from your wallet.

Question 2

i just quit smoking and my friends keep telling me to detox my body.. how do i do it?! and is it bad for me? and does it really work?! not feeling wel

Accepted Answer

Congratulations: You have just detoxed your body.  You may be in withdrawal and this should be discussed with a knowledgeable provider.  Other "detoxes" are bs.

Question 3

what is the best detox to cleanse the body?

Accepted Answer

None: There no such agents, nor is there a need for one!
your body cleanses itself, and any substance advertised to do that is potentially dangerous. I had a healthy patient nearly die after a "colon cleansing".  See your doctor for any healthcare concerns, and don't take any supplements unless directed by a physician.

Question 4

Question 6

which order should i do a total body detox cleanse in?

Accepted Answer

Just drink water: What ever you do do not buy a detox product.   Your liver and kidneys do an excellent job of clearing most toxins .  U just need to be well hydrated (drink water)  there are some toxins like heavy metals (lead) etc which may not come out and you should see your md if those are an issue.  Those detox products just make you poor-er.

Question 7

what is the best natural body detox and how can i keep my body away from the toxins?

Accepted Answer

Kidney and liver: We have 2 wonderful detox machines! our kidneys and liver. I am skeptical of products that claim to "detox" our bodies.

A balanced diet with pleanty of fruits and vegetables, water and exercise most days of the week is a great idea. A sauna can help periodically.

Question 8

my goal is to lose 20 pounds within 10 days. are there different types of detox diets that work besides the master cleanse?

Accepted Answer

Don't do it!: You will make yourself sick, you can end up in the intensive care unit, and your weight loss will be transient. Forget the idea that you need to be "detoxified"; start doing what nature truly intended, eat sensibly, focus on fruits and vegetables along with a good balance, and get with a group of people you like who exercise and will do it with you. You owe this to yourself.

Question 9

can chia seeds detox your body ?

Accepted Answer

No: Not sure what substance(s) you are trying to detox from, but chia won't detox you of anything. It's a good fiber, so it may capture some substances from the GI tract but won't do anything for those that have been absorbed into the bloodstream.

Question 10

what's the best way to detox your body?

Accepted Answer

No such thing: Detox is such an appealing concept... It seems logical we can take a tea or herb or medical preparation and sweat or bathroom out all the carcinogens, toxins, bad food and bad habits we are exposed to.  But sadly there is no magic bullet here... Colon cleansing, detoxifying, are all not helpful and can often be dangerous.  Once stuff is in the colon, its already on its way out.
