New Year detox diets a waste of time

New Year detox diets purporting to rid the body of harmful chemicals accumulated through seasonal excess are a waste of time according to Dr Andrew Wadge, of the Food Standards Agency (FSA). The chief scientist of the Government’s food watchdog said people should ignore the celebrity-endorsed fad diet and supplements market, estimated to be worth tens of millions of pounds a year as the human body is perfectly able to get rid of toxins.
