January detox Intox or how to waste your cash

Ladies and Gentlemen, this year again, after our multiple binge eating and drinking and probably lack of sleep (for those who still don't know that Santa Claus only comes when you're asleep), we are going to be bombarded by those so-called Detox treatments!!!

These, over the years, have varied from creams, brushes to special vitamin pills, food supplements, etc etc...

They all have one common point, according to companies that sell them, they exist because your body is full of toxins accumulated over the holiday season and you need to get rid of them as soon as possible so you body will be able to function to its absolute best!!

If you have a tendency to believe adverts and trust companies when they say that it's absolutely necessary to go through a body detox, please do keep on reading, you might find some useful information that will save you hundreds of pounds!

Yes, hundred of pounds because this detox market is a lucrative one. Unfortunately, that is all it is: A business, because no information provided with those detox products was based on scientific evidence, purily because none of them provide any miracle cure!

The common selling point is Getting rid of toxins

To achieve this, we have two choices: externally or internally.

Science Is So Sexy

When Susan from Love 2 Read  asked me to promote SSS on her blog, I was absolutely delighted!! Here is what I wrote for her:

What? Is usually the first response when I tell my friends about my blog.

Why and How are probably the next ones! I say Why not? Did you know that Science means Knowledge?

Isn't it kind of cool to know stuff your (male) friends don't? I think it's dead sexy for a girl :) And I'm not saying this because I am a scientist... ;)

I started Science So Sexy because I wanted to show this to people, share all sorts of information, create a place where they could come, ask their questions and leave with more knowledge and therefore be sexier...

I love reading, I love science, I am a researcher and I love explaining stuff to non scientists, so it seemed a natural step to write a blog.

I am not pretending to know everything (far far far from it) but I am suggesting to look into whatever subject you want me to by researching and then write an easily understandable concise post.

For this, I don't have any special writing skills, English is no even my first language, I am only driven by the will to make you read my posts and go "Woah I never knew this!!!" or "Brilliant, I have to tell that to my friends".

Maybe I've already written posts that might trigger this effect in you, such as Why do we cry when we chop onions? or What it means to be a Blood Secretor?. Or you might be interested in reading more seasonal posts like Vitamin D and the Winter Blues or after lots of baking and cooking over the Xmas period What is the difference between Yeast and Baking powder?

Or maybe I haven't already posted what you are interested in, in which case I am warmly inviting you to come over and leave your requests either on my Facebook page or on the blog itself.

Last but not least I would like to thank a million times Susan from Love 2 Read for giving me this opportunity of promotion on her blog!!! As a Blogger, what would we do without a solid blogger community??

See you very soon,
