Detox diet drinks claim to promote weight loss by suppressing the appetite while removing toxins from the body. Most detox diet drink programs recommend that you avoid solid food while consuming the beverage. If you decide to use a detox drink to lose weight, speak to your doctor first. Detox diets are not proven to work and may have harmful side effects, according to MayoClinic.com.
