The claimWhat Miranda actually said
Kerr describes a morning wellness ritual of cold-pressed celery juice on an empty stomach, followed by a 'Medical Medium Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie.' The routine echoes popular 'detox' wellness trends rather than any clinical protocol.
Why it mattersWhy this matters for longevity
'Detox' drinks are a large wellness category built largely on a premise the evidence does not support.
Knowing that the liver and kidneys already clear toxins helps separate a pleasant habit from a medical claim.
The evidenceWhat the science says
Celery juice is low-calorie and hydrating and adds some vitamins and potassium, so it is a harmless addition to a morning routine.
The caveat: a critical review of detox diets found no rigorous clinical trials showing any juice or smoothie removes heavy metals or 'toxins,' which the liver and kidneys handle on their own.
TakeawayThe honest takeaway
The practical lesson
Drink celery juice because you like it, not because it detoxes you, and don't let it stand in for evidence-based care.

SupplementsThe supplement angle: Vitamins from whole produce
Support a habit, do not replace one
Celery juice offers some vitamin K, potassium and water, but juicing strips the fiber; eating whole vegetables generally delivers more, and no drink is needed to 'remove heavy metals.'
Supplements can support good habits. They do not replace sleep, movement, nutrition, or medical care. Talk with your healthcare provider before starting anything new.
