First, detox diet programs are  not designed to help you lose weight but merely helps cleanse your system. For the next few days, you will have to give up certain foods and take some laxatives to help clean out the intestine and liver.

During that time, you will eat lots of fruits and vegetables. In most cases, these are unprocessed and raw since cooking will remove essential minerals and vitamins. People who are able to successfully complete the program say they feel healthier and have increased levels of energy.

Detox diets are not recommended for people with certain health conditions especially patients suffering from diabetes, eating disorders, heart disease and other chronic conditions. This should also not be done by pregnant or nursing mothers.

Teenagers should not also try the detox diet because this will rob them of vitamins and minerals which are important for their rapid growth and development.
