Okay. so People who claim about a magic "detox" drink or method usually have no idea about anything. Humans have a liver. Our liver detoxes your body. To do this it requires some nutrients from food we eat. Now if some people have a medical issue where their body fails at using micronutrients or their liver is no good and they have toxic amounts of something in their body. Then looking towards a detox may apply.
For people who are talking about a cleanse, well that is also largely pointless. Sure eat little and lots of fibre and flush your body out. But then go back to eating normal and you are no longer cleaned.
Think about things like this as usually people are just trying to make money selling you crap.
