Question by curiousguy: Anyone tried DrNatura or other “Detox” or “cleanses”? Anyone think its crap?
Anyone think its a load of crap? (haha no pun intended). Everyone seems to think its great, but I’m pretty skeptical. Anyone found any scientific evidence refuting the effectiveness of these detox systems?

Best answer:

Answer by Rickydotcom
Critics point out that the human liver, kidneys, lungs and skin have evolved to adequately expel environmental contaminants and are perfectly equipped to continue to do so unassisted.

Although detox diets or supplements may make you feel better, the scientific basis for such is somewhat lacking and there’s little evidence that there’s any good to be gained from following them. “Buyer beware.”

Of course, it’s true to say that food isn’t all pure nutrients and the average diet will inevitably contain some toxic substances (alcohol, for example).

Question by Charles Wallace: Cases of malpractice involving alcohol?
Hi everyone. I am writing an issue paper for college that talks about the consequences of drugs and alcohol in the workplace. Can anyone think of any cases where drugs or alcohol was used in the medical field and consequences arose from it?
Also, can you think of any instances where drugs or alcohol has been given to students by teachers?
I can think of a few, but I would like to use more. Perhaps you know of times where this has occured in your communities.

Any input is appreciated.
