You can’t detox your body. It’s a myth.
There’s no such thing as ‘detoxing’. In medical terms, it’s a nonsense. Diet and exercise is the only way to get healthy.

then those company's research so much on their detox products, are waste of resources?

It's snake oil.

Snake oil salesmen will make great claims, sometimes going as far to cite research (that they themselves conducted, conflict of interest?). It's nothing new. The only thing we can do is rely on evidence.

In this case we have more than evidence though. The idea of "detoxing" itself is something that doesn't make any sense in terms of the human body and it's functions.
