In August 2021 I wrote a short post recommending a supplement called Biologo-Detox. I had tried it myself and felt much better afterwards. It helped me, and I still recommend it.
In that post I also copied the claims that came with the product: detoxification of heavy metals, chemical toxins and mould toxins, and support for the liver, kidneys and intestines. Those claims were not mine to make, and when I checked them in September 2026 I could not find evidence for them. So here are my experience and the evidence side by side. My lemon-juice experiment from the same year went through the same review.
What I found
- What it was. Biologo-Detox was sold as a supplement. The independent German magazine Gute Pillen – Schlechte Pillen described it in 2008 as consisting mainly of chlorella algae and wrote that its detox method does not appear in serious scientific literature. The online shop I linked to has since closed.
- There is little evidence for detox products. A 2015 review of detox diets found very little clinical evidence behind them and no randomised controlled trials of commercial detox programmes in humans.
- Your liver and kidneys already do this work. The German consumer organisation Verbraucherzentrale writes that claims about cleansing the liver, kidneys and gut are not scientifically proven, and that evidence of an effect is missing.
What I would say now
It helped me, and I recommend it on that basis: my own experience, not a proven effect. I did not measure any toxins before or after, and I had nothing to compare it with, so I can’t tell you why I felt better or promise that you will.
If you are worried that you have been exposed to heavy metals or mould, see a doctor; exposure can be tested and treated. If you take regular medication, are pregnant or have a chronic illness, ask a pharmacist or doctor before starting any supplement.
Be the One, for me, means telling you what I experienced and what I cannot prove, so you can decide for yourself.
This is my personal recommendation and experience, not medical advice.
