Do dietary "cleanses" work, or are they pseudo-science?

Asked by cockswain (15276points) May 11th, 2011

I hear of colon cleanses, and know people that will go on a diet of only cayenne, maple syrup, and lemons for a couple weeks, and various other supposed cleanses that ‘rid your system of toxins.’

Is there any proof these are legit, or is it just junk science we’ve been deluded into buying?
