Can you tell me what toxins these remove that your kidneys and liver don’t? Detoxes (natural and artificial) have been debunked many many times.
Thanks for collecting these, my favorite is probably the 8th one. 🙂 Will try it out tomorrow.
fruit herbs and veggies cut up in water help your body by aiding the liver and kidneys in their job to detox the body. I am sure this is what is meant by detox…. without the kidneys and liver we would not be able to flush the toxins out. These recipes are wonderful, thank you
