I don't think so.: Cranberry juice being a little more acidic than other juices, may help to reduce risk if bladder infections. But there are no studies showing it has detoxification properties.

Uncertain: Cranberries contain proanthyocyanidins (PACs) which can help to prevent urinary tract infections (UTI's) in women with recurrent UTI's. They are also reported to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory & anti-carcinogenic effects.
