General
...The safety and adverse effects of detoxification depend on the method and substances used.
Most information available on potential adverse effects is based only on anecdotal reports.
Orally, detoxification regimens that involve high fiber intake can cause constipation. Regimens that involve the use of laxatives can cause diarrhea. Detoxification that reduces protein intake can cause mood changes, fatigue, tiredness, and other symptoms. Regimens that involve long-term fasting can cause vitamin and mineral deficiencies, protein deficiency, lactic acidosis, and death. Also, regimens that involve implementing extreme stress on the body can lead to electrolyte imbalances (93688,99478). Conversely, no adverse effects have been reported with the Wellnessup detoxification diet, which consists of organic fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted (104877).
Rectally, coffee enemas used for detoxification have been linked to at least three deaths. Two of these deaths are related to severe electrolyte imbalance, and a third is associated with polymicrobial septicemia following use of coffee enema (3026,3347,3349,6652). Coffee enemas have also been reported to cause proctocolitis (96868,103273).
Gastrointestinal
...Detoxification that involves significantly altering the types of foods consumed can result in several potential side effects.
Diets that eliminate caffeine may result in diarrhea, which can lead to fluid and electrolyte loss and dehydration. High fiber diets sometimes result in constipation. Detoxification programs often include laxatives. These can cause significant diarrhea leading to fluid loss and electrolyte imbalances.
At least 5 cases of proctocolitis related to the use of coffee enemas have been reported (96868,103273).
Neurologic/CNS
...Detoxification that eliminates caffeine can result in caffeine withdrawal headaches.
Detoxification that eliminates or reduces protein intake by eliminating meat can result in mood changes, fatigue, tiredness, and a variety of other symptoms.
In one case, serotonin syndrome was reported in a 19-year-old man attempting detoxification with tryptophan and St. John's wort after using MDMA (ecstasy) (93688).
Renal ...Certain types of detoxification practices can cause electrolyte imbalances. For example, there was a case of severe hyponatremia after a sauna sweating "purification" practice from the Hubbard Purification Rundown (99478).
Other
...Some methods of fasting can be safe short-term; however, long-term or extreme fasting can result in vitamin and mineral deficiencies, protein deficiency, lactic acidosis, and death (93688).
Rectally administered coffee enemas used for detoxification have been linked to at least three deaths. Two of these deaths were related to severe electrolyte imbalance, and a third was associated with polymicrobial septicemia following use of coffee enema (3026,3347,3349,6652).
General ...Orally, honeysuckle seems to be well tolerated. No adverse effects have been reported. There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of honeysuckle when used topically. However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Immunologic ...Topically, applying honeysuckle to the skin has been associated with contact dermatitis in a case report (12611). Orally, a case of biopsy-confirmed allergic drug eruption is reported in a young adult male after taking honeysuckle granules 30 grams over a 24-hour period. Symptoms resolved with discontinuation of honeysuckle and 2-weeks of antihistamine and glucocorticoid therapy (112866).
