I know you’ve been thinking about body detox. Otherwise you wouldn’t have come onto this site, sniffing out information. And my guess is that you’ve come here for a definitive list of what detox systems work, of whether you should go with teas or pre-mixes, or sludge, or simply pay the hundreds of dollars for that colonic you’ve always known you should have gotten but have up until now avoided. Well, my friend: it’s a new day. Healthful living is popularized because health care itself is getting prohibitively more expensive.
The Millenials are safe because we’ve finally gotten the PR battle about clean living right. The days when it might be outside of the norm to stay virginal till married (though we REALLY don’t recommend that) and to never have touched a cigarette or tasted beer by the time you’re fifteen are gone. It was through the trial-and-error phase of the clean living movement– my generation– that so many people got the propaganda wrong and, as such, it’s my generation who will need these sorts of treatments more often, and soon.
The newly-minted era of health awareness is a good and important trend in contemporary society, and some people have been living such starkly clean lives for so long that they’ve forgotten how to talk to people like you, who have been smoking and drinking in direct proportion to your body weight since you dropped out of college. It’s for those of you that these clean livers hire self-destructive types like me to write for them.
That’s absolutely counter-productive to your children’s futures. You should know better.
So while my children’s generation, through the reflection of our generation’s example, are probably safe, it’s us– those of us who are, now, building our families and starting our lives in earnest, who’ve squeezed out the last few drops of hedonism from this ever-increasingly pure society so that those kids could survive without having to, like us, find body detox mixtures at least once per year.
