Her yıl milyonlarca insan “detoks suları” için para harcıyor. Instagram’da bir influencer size limonlu-zencefilili-nane yapraklı bir su içerek vücudunuzdaki “toksinleri” atabileceğinizi söylüyor. Bir diğeri, sabah aç karnına içeceğiniz özel bir karışımın metabolizmanızı hızlandırıp kilo vermenizi sağlayacağını iddia ediyor.
Peki gerçek mi bunlar?
Küresel detoks ürünleri pazarı 2024 yılında 66 milyar doları aştı ve 2030 yılına kadar 95 milyar dolara ulaşması bekleniyor. Ama işin ilginç yanı şu: bilimsel hiçbir kanıt bu ürünlerin işe yaradığını göstermiyor.
Bugün size detoks endüstrisinin kirli gerçeklerini anlatacağım. Çünkü: vücudunuz zaten dünya üzerindeki en gelişmiş detoks sistemine sahip – ve bu sistem tamamen ücretsiz.
