Are Cleanse and Detox Diets Really Safe?
August 27, 2009 by Jeanne
If you’ve ever wanted to rid your body of the daily toxins we take in every day or even just wanted to kick start your diet, you’ve probably considered doing a cleanse. In their various forms, they are really popular but are they actually effective? More importantly, are they safe?
The Today show took a look at the trend and spoke with Dr. Ian Smith, the author of The 4 Day Diet, about it. He explained that many of the popular cleanses that a lot of celebrities use are not very healthy. He went on to say that in order to really detoxify your body, you need to stimulate your liver. A nutritionist for the New York Giants said that our biggest problem is that we bog down our diet by overeating bad food.
The main suggestion is that, instead of taking supplements or doing colonics/laxatives, we need to help our body cleanse itself naturally by eating nutrient-rich foods. It was an interesting segment (even though the experts seemed to be speaking over each other) so, if this is a topic that you’ve been wondering about, it’s worth watching!
I suffered from stomach pain and burning mostly, couldn’t sleep well and just hated those extra pounds I couldn’t get rid of no matter what I did. Now I stumbled upon this system that is easy and it doesn’t require expensive medication or difficult exercises.
Been using the Dr Max Powers 15 Day Cleanse for 3 years now (about 3 x per year) and I am SO happy I discovered it on the internet. I had never been regular even as a child, but these pills work magic for me. I’m guaranteed results the next morning. No cramps or other problems, just good results.
In the past 3 days I have lost 6 pounds of waste. My appetite is down and I feel great. I’m taking 2 pills a day, 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening. There is no stomach cramping, although my stomach has made a couple of growling noises at me..giving me a warning that it is time to go to the bathroom..but other than that..no real problems
Looking forward to more waste (weight) loss…hip-hip-hooray!!! I definitely recommend them for women looking for a great cleanse to do!
