Hi Jennie,

Your article is great! It stimulates out thoughts. The detox industry is controversial. I believe the processed foods we eat (even the whole foods) contain chemicals (antibiotics, heavy metals, pesticides, etc) that take a toll in our body. Body detoxification is beneficial.

The question is how do we detoxify our body. While detox products are generally not harmful, there is a lot of hype there. I believe proper diet and even intermittent fasting can help our body detoxify itself.

Ah, Lily, I forgot about the black jelly beans! I’ll forgive you, if you save all yours for me.

Ann, yes, I think our biggest difference in pov is that you think black jelly beans are real candy while I think they taste like nasty medicine. Tis the season for you to be enjoying them again.

By the way, I love the picture that accompanies this article and it is causing me to crave a good piece of watermelon. – Pam

I know – me too.

I think we can all just skip the cleanse and concentrate on eating a lot more of what is in this picture and we will all be the better for it. I believe there is a nice piece of anti-oxident chocolate right behind the smoothie there – yep on the right – don’t you see it?!?
