		<description><![CDATA[Ben Goldacre The Guardian, Saturday 10 January 2009 Obviously by now you can interpolate my views on detox: meaningless, symbolic, gimmicky shortlived health gestures with a built-in expiry date, when we could be reading about the NHS&#8217;s surprisingly useful website to help you stop smoking (do it now: smokefree.nhs.uk/), or lifestyle pieces on the joys [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Greeetings to listeners of the Today programme on BBC Radio 4. About 20 minutes ago I was on the show talking about detox nonsense. Nas Amir Ahmadi of detoxinabox.com denied the rather foolish contents of her own website, and confidently claimed that I must be thinking of the wrong company. I read a quote. She [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ben Goldacre The Guardian, Saturday August 9 2008 Silly season is in full swing. At the Telegraph, their correspondent has gone for a bioenergetic health audit. “The resident homoeopath, Katie Jermine, quizzed me about my diet, stress levels and lifestyle. She then strapped on a wristband and plugged me into an electronic device called the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ben Goldacre The Guardian, Saturday July 26 2008 Like many professions who kill people with some regularity, doctors have elaborate systems for seeing what went wrong afterwards, and the answer is rarely “Brian did it”. This week the papers have been alive with criticism for quack nutritionism after the case of Dawn Page, a 52 [...]]]></description>

I could have told you from the start that &#8220;Aqua Detox&#8221; was a scam, and a popular one at that. Why? Because it is claimed to extract &#8220;toxins&#8221; from your body through the &#8220;2,000 pores in [...]]]></description>

After last week&#8217;s cluster nonsense, Caroline Stacey was getting excited in the Independent&#8217;s Food and Drink section about Oxygizer water. &#8220;Oxygizer doesn&#8217;t just slake a thirst, it provides the body with extra oxygen too.

Basically you sit in a bath of salt water, seaweed, algae and mud, and then&#8230; &#8220;because the seawater is at body temperature, mineral ions pass into the blood and encourage toxins to pass out,&#8221; says [...]]]></description>
