Whole food (an apple for example) is also cleansing food. Cleansing (accomplished through fasting) better enables us to absorb the nutrients in food.

In other words, DetoX works simply because it put you in position to drastically reduce calories. The benefits which accrue are attributable to the calorie reduction, not to DetoX itself.I like the simplicity and easy acceptance of that explanation.
