《华尔街日报》近日刊登文章指出，在美国排毒净化已经成为一项极具规模的产业，各界名流争相为其代言，并拉来上百万美元的风投资金。在健身界，随身携带一瓶果汁已经成为一种社会地位的象征。 <span word="But">But</span> <span word="can">can</span> <span word="such">such</span> <span

首先要说的是，什么是毒素?营养专家唐纳德韩思鲁德在接受《华尔街日报》采访时表示：到目前为止，还没有人能够告诉我，这些毒素到底是什么。 <span word="In">In</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="comment">comment</span> <span word="piece">piece</span> <span

他提到，美国人同样深受重金属、有害化学成分以及孤独等精神毒素的侵害。他表示，人们可以通过减少与这些毒素的接触，以及保持饮食、维他命和矿物质的均衡摄入，进而到达增强自身排毒能力的目的。 <span word="But">But</span> <span word="even">even</span> <span word="Hyman">Hyman</span> <span

一些排毒养生法倡导人们多吃蔬菜，这的确对健康大有益处。但是很多主流权威专家并不承认排毒这一说法，称其为伪科学。他们认为人类自身已经具备一套高效的排毒过滤系统。 <span word="The">The</span> <span word="whole">whole</span> <span word="cleansing">cleansing</span> <span
