You see them all over TV and the internet. "The only way to detox is the new blah blah blah." They claim to be the latest and greatest in your body detox program, but are they actually worth it? Learn about some of the greatest fads in natural body detox today and if they are worth looking at.

So let's talk about your feet for a minute. Your feet? Yes. Many people involved in a whole body detox like to do a detox foot bath. This is not the same as the plastic massaging foot bath you got for Christmas that you never use. A detox foot bath uses a metal container that puts an electric charge in the water. This charge doesn't hurt you, but binds to the toxins in your body and carries them out through the pores in the feet. Many people say this foot bath works well. But in any natural body detox, removing toxins is pointless if you are just going to put them back in your body. So yes, you may remove toxins through the hundreds of pores in your feet but if you put them back in you are kind of defeating the purpose.

Now what about the whole juice diet craze. It's similar to a fast, except that you are allowing your body the nutrients from the juice. This is a great way to cleanse the system. However, you don't want to do it for longer than a couple of days. You would be depriving yourself of other needed vitamins and minerals if this is all your natural body detox consists of.

Speaking of fasting, what about purging? This is where you bulk up on fiber, laxatives, or supplements to keep you in the bathroom for the better part of your natural body detox. This is one body detox tip you want to avoid. Yes, it is important to stay regular. But besides putting yourself at risk for bulimia and possibly harming your colon, purging doesn't do much at all. When you purge, your body isn't going to get rid of only the toxins and keep all the healthy stuff. It's going to get rid of everything and leave you feeling sick and weak. While these can be normal side effects of a healthy body detox program, don't fool yourself into thinking that purging is the way to go.

So now we have reviewed some of the most popular body detox tips in the fad arena. Make sure when looking at a fad that you check credible research to find out if this is something that is here to stay. Don't jeopardize your whole body detox by engaging in risky behavior that will leave you worse off than when you started. The goal is to improve your health, not sabotage it.
