Dettox

[LiverpoolLou]

Hi all,

I was watching BB earlier, and Orlaith said she was going to dettox next week, when asked how she was going to do this, she said, I'm gonna drink boiled water and eat melon. Is this true and if so, do you do it for one day, or a few. I know boiled water is good for cleaning the kidney's, my mum used to swear by it, she drank boiled water every day. I didn't know melon was part of dettox, can anyone tell me if what Orlaith said was true as I would like to try it. I have been dieting for 3 months and doing really well.

Thanks

I thought she said 'Im gonna drink boiled water with lemon'.

Hi handya, I must have mis-heard, I thought she said melon..thanks for your reply.

she probably said, "oh look everybody, look at my melons"....  again .... and again.... and again.

The purpose of your liver and kidneys is to detoxify the body. Drinking boiled water and lemon just gives your liver a bit of a rest while depriving the rest of you of nutrients. While this is strictly my opinion and you, nor anyone else need not agree with me, this detox stuff is pure tree-hugger stuff and serves no useful purpose. It's all in the head.

Octavius.....brilliant answer LOL

 

Thanks Ralph, I think I'll give it a miss.

I think the word is DETOX.  Dettox is some sort of disinfectant.

OMG.... pamnez, thanks for that. I'll know in future......and I've bought Dettox loads of times.
