Are weight loss and detox related?
In recent years, the world of fitness is expanding rapidly, both in terms of the number of practitioners and the number of actors.
And when the number of practitioners explodes, the market follows, and must adapt, find new concepts to satisfy all these potential customers 😉
This is how the world of fitness saw the advent of the detox diet, a diet among many others (without fat, paleo, dukan, etc ...).
However, the detox diet is no longer confined to the world of fitness, since even the media, nutritionists and women's magazines talk about it.
So what is this famous detox diet so much touted? What does it consist on ?
Does it really help you lose weight and be healthier?
Whether you're looking for a "quick" and "easy" way to lose weight, boost your vitality, reduce your stress, or improve your overall health, you've surely been convinced by an ad, an article or an acquaintance that the detox diet is THE thing to do.
Just look around you: go for a walk in any store and you will easily find lots of pills, tea or food supplements to "purify" the body.
But…
What exactly is a detox diet?It is here that we notice the first strangeness: there is no clear definition of the term.In fact, each company will give its own definition based on its product range and its alleged effects.The purpose being to capitalize on the very fashionable term "detox" right now.It must be admitted that it attracts: detoxify meaning literally "remove a harmful substance from the body".But it can also say anything and everything: fine particles, ozone, heavy metals, alcohols, drugs, ...These detoxification treatments are carried out in hospitals, in case of medical emergencies, and by trained and equipped personnel.But when it comes to the generalization of detox diets as such, there is no solid scientific basis behind them, just marketing terms that make you dream ...What toxins are actually evacuated? By what processes? What is the real efficiency?All this is a little vague ...
Just look at the different detox products sold by major supplement brands: none give the same definition of the term "detox" and exactly what scientific studies were done to support their claims.
They are content to sway vague explanations and catchy terms to attract their customers.
All of this accompanied, of course, by known fitness girl advertisements telling how this miracle product helped them lose X kilos ... While these girls are fit for 3 years 😉
No wonder, it's marketing, we have the equivalent in bodybuilding: the doped bodybuilder who advises you to take this or that supplement by saying: "That's what helped me" while what really helped him is illegal.
All the hypocrisy of the world of fitness 😉
But hey, that's how the world works. What is needed is just being aware of it and thinking a little more about what is written about packaging and the results that it really brings.
And for that, it is necessary to return to the B.A.BA, to what is proved and which works, for everyone:
