The 3 Day Detox Cleanse Dr. Oz Recommends

Throughout the three-day detox plan laid out on a segment during his show, Oz recommends sipping on three different drinks daily plus a snack drink which he claims helped reset his body. A clip from the segment shows Oz blending various ingredients to concoct the detox recipes. He then proceeds to direct viewers to kick off the day using a detox morning tea made with green tea, lemon, and stevia to get ready for the day. Next follows what the plan calls a breakfast drink: key ingredients include raspberries, banana, spinach, and almond butter mixed with water. 

To shed light on the advantages of the detox, Oz brings on dietitian Julieanna Hever who speaks about the phytochemicals found in fruits and vegetables, which can aid the liver in detoxifying. As stated by Harvard Health Publishing, there is evidence to suggest that phytochemicals may be able to prevent certain diseases like cancer. Additionally, a 2015 study in the National Library of Medicine confirms that these phytochemicals also have antioxidants that help protect cells from damaging free radicals roaming around in the body to promote anti-aging. Even though the benefits are there, the cleanse does have some limitations.
