Well, they might work, but you'll never know unless you try them. The good thing about a detox diet is the fact that nobody tries to lose weight in this form of diet. Under a detox diet, people just try and lose all toxins and wash them away from their body so that they are clean. Weight loss diets are the ones that need a lot of time, but detox diets can be easily performed, and that too, with a simple combination of water and lemon. Just make sure that it's a holiday and that you're close to a restroom when you go on your detox diet!
