Are detox drinks good?
Detox drinks can be healthful, nourish and detoxify your system, hydrate you, and help you feel great. Consuming drinks containing fruits and vegetables as part of a balanced diet is a good way of helping you the nutrition you need. Detoxing doesn’t need to be done on a daily basis but is helpful from time to time.
There’s not enough evidence to support if detoxing aids in weight loss but they are encouraged because they’re a convenient way to consume fresh fruits and vegetables, using fresh ingredients.
Another advantage of these drinks is they preserve the dietary fiber in fruits and vegetables. Using detox juices as a meal replacement is not really recommended.
