Yeah, please do not write in about how you worked in a coal mine for 30 years and needed to detox. This is not what we're talking about. You have a functioning liver and kidneys. This is literally their job is to expel toxins from your body. And to the extent that they're unable to do their job because of, let's say, mercury in the drinking water, which I think is...
Not a very woo-woo thing to say that there's mercury in the drinking water. The extent to which they're unable to do their job of eliminating that, dumping a bag of Dr. Quack's special woo-ora detoxing powder into your lemon water three times a day is not going to make anything better. In a best-case scenario, it's not going to do anything.

taking these detox supplements, I would definitely be doing due diligence to ensure that I'm even getting what the label says that I'm getting in the amount that it says that I am, that the purity is good, that it's not put together on the floor of a mercury manufacturing plant during their shift change, that kind of stuff.

And whatever you're getting, whether it's food, supplements, whatever, like you should always be doing due diligence about what you put in your body. You don't have to go down some crazy rabbit hole or become some nutrition autist to get like any kind of
