- Those seeking methods to detox from marijuana because of an upcoming drug test must take their marijuana use into account. If you are a chronic smoker, using marijuana on a weekly or daily basis, you should give yourself at least a month for detox. Those who use it on a less frequent basis should take at least two weeks for the following detox methods.
- Since urine is a primary way THC leaves the body, the more water you drink, the more of marijuana's key component will be flushed out. To aid in this process, one can purchase such products as Aqua Clean or Urine Pre-Tox capsules to speed up the process.
- In order to block THC stored in the body's fat cells from entering the urinary tract, Absolute De-Tox Carbo-Drink is recommended. If you weight more than 250 pounds, ZYDOT Ultimate-24 may prove to be a more successful method. Search for these products and more on drugtestzone.com.
- Even though drug testing in hair samples is less popular than urine, hair is able to retain THC for months. If you are concerned about THC in your hair, you should look into purchasing ZYDOT Ultra Clean Shampoo and Conditioner. These remove THC buildup by exposing the inner hair and dissolving any and all impurities. Head & Shoulders (Fine/Oily), Neutrogena and Rave are some over-the-counter shampoos that are also recommended for this purpose.
- Diuretics, fiber intake and exercise are highly recommended for marijuana detox. Diuretics cause frequent urination, temporarily removing THC from the body. Some foods and drinks that can be used for their diuretic qualities are grapes, coffee, cranberry juice, beer, iced tea and Pepsi. A high-fiber diet is also key in redirecting THC metabolites from the bladder to the colon, leading to an excretion of the drug in the stool instead of urine. Exercising can also be used to increase the metabolic rate; this will cause THC to move through the body faster.
