Consequently, detox diets invade the pages of magazines and blogs of all kinds. The latest, the diet of fruit juices and vegetables, is a hit in the United States and among Hollywood stars, addicted to this type of novelty.

The concept of detox is however not new. It appears with the theory of hygienism the late nineteenth century. The accumulation of toxins in the body is the cause of many diseases. Detoxify the body would then regain form, health and well-being. Nowadays, some even look to achieve some form of purity through detoxification. What a program!

The principle of treatment of fruit juices and vegetables is simple. This is to drink throughout the day freshly squeezed juices, and for a period more or less long (a few days to several weeks).

All these preparations are made without preservatives on the same day using a juicer cold and are delivered at home or in the workplace. The plants used are raw and the extraction method preserves the content of enzymes and nutrients.

The medical profession has a very different opinion on the matter because the body detoxifies well only through, inter alia, liver and kidneys. Undertake a detox cure whatever seems unnecessary. Same skepticism on the part of nutritionists who warn against the potentially dangerous side effects of this type of liquid diet. They can cause many deficiencies.
