Detox
Detoxification pathways and protocols
Interventions
Oil Pulling
Ayurvedic practice of swishing oil in the mouth for 15-20 minutes to improve oral hygiene and reduce harmful bacteria
Ozone Therapy
Therapeutic use of ozone (O3) gas through various delivery methods for immune support, antimicrobial effects, and enhanced oxygen utilization
Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy (H2O2)
Therapeutic use of diluted hydrogen peroxide through oral, IV, or nebulized delivery for claimed antimicrobial, oxygenation, and immune-modulating effects
Activated Charcoal
Highly porous carbon used medically for poisoning and overdose. Popular for "detox" but daily use lacks evidence and may bind nutrients.
Zeolite
Volcanic mineral (clinoptilolite) marketed for heavy metal detox and gut health. Limited human evidence despite strong claims. May have some binding properties but research is sparse.
Infrared Sauna
Saunas using infrared light to heat the body directly rather than heating the air. Lower temperatures than traditional saunas (110-150°F vs 150-200°F), may be more tolerable for some. Growing evidence for cardiovascular and pain benefits.
Coffee Enemas
Rectal administration of coffee, claimed to stimulate liver detoxification and bile flow. Central to Gerson therapy. Lacks clinical evidence and carries real risks. Devoted following despite weak science.
Studies
Position paper: Single-dose activated charcoal
Activated charcoal is most effective when given within 1 hour of poison ingestion; effectiveness decreases significantly with time and is not recommended for routine use.
Critical review on zeolite clinoptilolite safety and medical applications in vivo
Review of clinoptilolite zeolite found some evidence for heavy metal binding in animal studies, but limited human research and potential for binding essential minerals warrants caution.
Systematic review on the use of activated charcoal for gastrointestinal decontamination following acute oral overdose.
Activated charcoal remains the primary GI decontamination method after acute overdose, but evidence supports use mainly within 1-2 hours of ingestion and effectiveness varies by substance.
The effect of activated charcoal on drug exposure following intravenous administration: A meta-analysis.
Activated charcoal significantly reduces systemic drug exposure even after intravenous drug administration, demonstrating its ability to interrupt enterohepatic and enteroenteric drug cycling.
