These people seem to have a profound misunderstanding about how and what cleans up toxins in the body and that there's something you can "take/drink/eat" that will somehow supercede your liver and kidneys to make them pure or something. Its bizarre. In their quest to become "less full of shit" they have become maximally full of shit

People who talk about "toxins in the body" generally don't even know what "toxins in the body" means. It's like people talking about "chemicals" in food. Newsflash, literally all matter is chemicals. Food is 100% chemicals.
"But they mean artificial chemicals!"
Sure. Except people don't know which ones are "artificial", nor do they know whether these artificial chemicals are more dangerous than their natural counterparts.
They're just full of shit. They don't have a clue, they're just parroting shit they read on Instagram or whatever.
You want to prove "chemicals" are bad? Pick one specific chemical, do some studies and conclusively prove it's harmful, then say "chemical x is bad". "Chemicals are bad" is just incorrect.
Almost none of this shit is based on reality. For the things we know are bad like lead, asbestos, PFAS etc we have solid science and we act on that knowledge by writing legislation to prevent unsafe use.
Popular science is like 99% total bullshit. That's why people complain that "scientists change their mind every year". Because the scientists just published some results showing a weak link between chocolate and cancer, then a bunch of bullshit articles popped up saying chocolate cures cancer and then people wonder why they still have cancer after they ate chocolate.
What really drives me insane is the complete crockshittery of the US food pyramid/guide and the obsession with "lite" products. People should realize fat is really good for you as a source of nourishment and satiety and if you suck all of it away, you gotta replace it with even worse garbage to compensate.
