The moment you read toxins and detox in any article for mass consumption - stop bother reading further - the author is at best a quack.

+1 I have yet to see any reasonable evidence from people who tout going dairy free just because of lactose intolerance. The lactase enzyme reaction is one of the simplest bits of chemistry to do. Lacto-ovo vegetarians live longer. Advising them to cut milk seems irresponsible.

If you actually read the article, the doctor they interviewed is perfectly reasonable and clearly knows what she is talking about. I came in expecting the usual quackery and was pleasantly surprised, this is real doctor whose specialty is Crohn's and Celiac disease.

I did read that article, and was still disappointed.

This is health 'lite', with ten day quick fixes, beauty tips and doctors telling otherwise healthy people to 'stay off the gluten'.

Is it just me or do the pictures of her look like her face has been heavily airbrushed? That's a bit ironic considering...

I don't get the irony, maybe you mean hypocritical, but I don't see that either. She isn't advocating being comfortable with your body as given to you, nor is she saying we shouldn't wear makeup. She's saying you should eat healthy most of the time.
