Do detoxes work, or do they just detoxify our wallets?

In this article, you can watch a video that was recently released on the YouTube channel of the Institute of Modern Nutrition, which discusses a well-known cliché - detoxes. Lukáš Roubík draws our attention to various fallacies that spread through social networks. Most importantly, we will learn why detoxes do not work and how they can harm us.

After a short break, we would like to invite you to watch our new video with a very important topic.

You may have recently noticed an affair that has shaken the Czech internet and social networks. The well-known influencer and cook Kamu has received a huge wave of criticism, which started with a photo of a recipe that Kamu borrowed from another author without mentioning the source, so that the photo could appear on social media as her own culinary creation. However, we find it very sad that the Czech influencer with more than 300,000 followers on Instagram only received a bigger wave of criticism because of one photo. Where we see a real problem and have been pointing it out for more than 2 years is the misinformation about nutrition and health from the mouth of this influencer, which can actually harm a lot of her followers!
