Experts Question Health Benefits and Safety of Popular Detox Juices

Detox juices, popularized on social media for purported health benefits like toxin removal and weight loss, lack scientific support according to experts. Nutritionist Aditi Prasad Apte and neurologist Dr. Sudhir Kumar explain that the body’s liver and kidneys naturally detoxify without aid from such drinks. Juice cleanses may cause short-term weight loss due to calorie deficits but risk nutritional imbalance and potential harm, especially for individuals with kidney issues or diabetes.
