If you have ever tried a "detox program" or cleanse, you may have had some unpleasant symptoms like cramping, flu-like achiness or other discomfort. You may also have felt nothing at all and noticed no real benefit. Your past experieces may have led you to believe that detox diets and cleanses are hoaxes or harmful.
While some are unwise and others are put together wrong, there are some truly good detox programs out there and good advice on using them.
There's no doubt that today's typical diet leads to a build-up of toxins and accumulated junk and gunk inside. White flour products and refined sugar are both foods that factor high in the modern diet, have little or no nutritional value and are unnaturally processed to the point that the colon has trouble eliminating them.
