    Is it healthy to detox or is that just like a fad diet type of thing?

    I don't really know what detox means tbh. I think it means different things to different people and it's a bit of an oul' marketing term these days.

    What had you in mind?

    Yup, have to agree.

    'Tis a load of ol' marketing hype.

    Its very simple, your body is very, very efficient at getting rid of toxin's & when that system breaks down you get very quickly become ill. And apart from leading a healthy lifestyle with a good diet, low to moderate alcohol intake and off the fags all your going to achieve with 'de-toxing' is to make your wallet lighter and someone else's heavier.

    There is absolutely nothing man made that will rid your body of toxins (in a healthy person) better than what god has equipt you with.

    If it is some powder or pill crap then avoid it. Just eat plenty of fresh fruit & veg, lay off the caffeine, booze & processed crap for a week or so, and drink loads of water.

    Don't bother with detox plans. We evolved a liver/kidneys for this. Its a con.
