Detox, trend or pure biology?





If you thought detox was just for influencers and green juices, Gary Brecka is here to shake things up. This longevity expert — who, mind you, is no makeshift guru but a seasoned scientist — reminds us that “detox” is not a trend, it’s a pure biological necessity. And honestly, considering the amount of chemical junk floating in our air, water, and even in the bread you eat, who doesn’t need a deep cleanse?

Can you imagine your body as a recycling plant, 24/7, with no right to vacation? That’s how the liver, kidneys, intestines, skin, lungs, and lymphatic system work. They are our unsung heroes, managing internal waste (thanks metabolism) and external waste, ranging from heavy metals to your grandma’s perfumes. Did you know mercury and lead can even be in your dental fillings? There’s no escape!

The real "detox" begins by opening the gates





Now, let's get down to business. Gary Brecka doesn't beat around the bush: before thinking about miracle juices, you have to open the drainage pathways. What does this mean? Basically, if your liver, intestines, and kidneys don't function like Swiss clocks, any detox attempt will be like trying to clean a house with the windows closed and the dust under the carpet.

Here's an old-school journalism secret for you: hydration is non-negotiable, and neither is movement. Exercise is not just for showing off on Instagram. The trick is to evacuate daily (yes, happily going to the bathroom), sweat, and move your body, even if it's just dancing in the living room. Dry brushing, saunas, and even jumping on a trampoline help wake up the lymphatic system. Did you know the lymphatic system is like the Uber for toxic waste? Without it, everything gets stuck.

The five steps: detox with science, not magic





Ready for Gary Brecka’s detox menu? Here I serve it to you on a platter and without any weird dressings:

1. Open the pathways: Hydrate, move, support your organs with milk thistle, NAC, and dandelion. If your intestine doesn’t work, the rest is useless.

2. Move the toxins: Sweat and movement make toxins come out of their hiding places. Do you like the sauna? Your skin will thank you.

3. Capture the bad: Use activated charcoal, zeolite, or chlorella. They are like sponges that trap the unwanted and take it out the back door.

4. Eliminate through the skin: The sauna is not just for relaxation. Sweating helps toxins, especially those living in fat and even in the brain, come to the surface and finally leave.

5. Repair and support your cells: Here comes the heavy artillery: CoQ10, omega-3, glutamine, probiotics. The goal is to restore energy to the mitochondria and heal the intestine. Did you know that intestinal health is key for the whole system to function? Without a happy intestine, forget about detox.




How to know if your body is saying "help"?



Are you dragging through life even though you sleep eight hours? Do you feel like your head is in a cloud, your skin like a teenager’s, and your stomach like a hot air balloon? Don’t worry, you’re not strange, you’re just as toxic as most people. Gary Brecka makes it clear: those symptoms are your body waving a white flag. Don’t ignore them, pay attention.

Ask yourself: does your food bloat you? Do you get irritated over anything? Do your joints hurt for no reason? These are not “signs of aging,” they are signals that your body needs a break. And if you want to know an interesting fact, toxins don’t just make you feel bad, they can stay stored for years in fat and even in the brain. Yes, your brain can be “bathed” in mercury and you wouldn’t even notice.


Make detox a habit, not a punishment



Gary Brecka sums it up with a nod to the past: the ancients already knew that eliminating impurities was key. From fasting to the famous “oil pulling,” modern science has only come to confirm what grandmothers and shamans suspected. Why not learn from them and clean your environment, filter your water, choose organic products, and, of course, prioritize sleep and mental health?

Before you think this is just another impossible list, let me tell you something as a journalist with years of experience digging into health topics: detoxification is not a passing trend. It is survival. And if you want to live longer —and better— start by opening the floodgates. Are you up for trying the five-step method and listening to what your body really needs? Tell me, I want to know if you’re also joining the “ultimate” human club!
