[CPD-CEU] Fasting, Detox Diets and Cleanses: Separating Evidence from Myth in Toxicology

About this event

Are extreme fasts and detox diets really the key to cleansing the body?

Can juice cleanses or water-only fasts eliminate toxins?

And what about the latest detox supplements?

Fasting, detox diets, and cleanses are often promoted as miracle solutions for improving health and removing toxins. The global detox market continues to grow and is valued at USD 66.23 billion, largely driven by consumer demand. But what does the evidence really say?

In this CPD-CEU webinar, we’ll separate evidence from myth in the science of toxicology and detoxification. You'll uncover the dangers of extreme practices, the reality of how the body deals with harmful substances, and the role nutrition plays in supporting these vital processes.

By the end of this CPD-CEU training, you'll feel confident empowering your clients with safe, evidence-based strategies for managing their health concerns.
