Question 2

Question 3

what is the proper way to detox your body? i am going to be drug tested in about 7-10 days and have weed in my system. how do i get clean fast?

Accepted Answer

Detox not helpful: Unless using large amounts of cannabis for some time often urines will be negative after a week or so.     The best way to avoid detection and be forthright about it is to simply ensure that you leave a dilute urine.  This can be done by getting rid of the first urine of the morning and then drinking plenty of fluids prior to your leaving a sample.   All the best.   Is cannabis a problem for you?

Question 4

Question 5

what is the fastest detox ?

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 6

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 7

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 8

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 9

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 10

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.
