I Tried Jazz Total Detox for a Drug Test: Here Are the Results

I decided to test Jazz Total Detox, a 10oz cleansing drink advertised to help pass drug tests. In this article, I’ll share my experience and the results.

Firstly, it’s important to know that Jazz Total Detox doesn’t permanently remove toxins. Instead, it provides a temporary period during which your urine might seem clean enough to pass a drug test.

Personal use experience

I’m 6 feet tall and weigh 187 pounds with around 22% body fat.

I consider myself physically fit, engaging in about an hour of cardio daily.

I’m also a regular edible consumer, typically taking no more than 5mg up to five nights a week for the past ten months.

I stopped consuming edibles three days before the test. Despite this, I still tested positive initially, which was expected.

After drinking one bottle of Jazz Total Detox, I didn’t feel the need to urinate immediately.

However, the instructions advised drinking water afterwards and promised that by the third urination, my urine would be toxin-free.

After starting to hydrate, I experienced some stomach cramps, which were quite uncomfortable.

It took about 1.5 hours and a lot of water before I could urinate three times.

I tested my urine every hour for the next five hours.

As you can see in the photo below – all the tests returned positive. Therefore, the drink failed to pass the drug test.

Additionally, the urine was pale, which makes me doubt it would pass a validity check for pH, creatinine, and specific gravity.

How does Jazz Total Detox work?

The effectiveness of detox drinks, like Jazz Detox, relies on certain principles.

Same-day detox or cleansing is a temporary method intended to reduce the amount of drug metabolites in urine for a drug test.

Here are the basic principles and steps that such a method must accomplish for optimal results:

Making your urine clean

1. Stopping the Breakdown of Body Fat: This is crucial because marijuana metabolites are stored in body fat tissues and continuously released into the bloodstream, and from there, they make their way into the liver and urine. By halting the breakdown of body fat, THC is not released from the fat cells into the blood, thus not reaching the urine.
2. Slowing Down Drug Metabolism in the Liver: Achieved by inhibiting the activity of CYP450 enzymes responsible for drug metabolism. When drug metabolism in the liver is slowed, less THC from the blood gets metabolized and excreted into the urine, reducing the THC content therein.
3. Preventing Reabsorption of Drug Metabolites: Most drug metabolites end up in the intestines, not urine. However, they can be reabsorbed into the blood from the intestines – a process called enterohepatic circulation. Halting this process means fewer drug metabolites are excreted into the urine.
4. Frequent Urination: By urinating often, you flush out the drug metabolites already in your bladder. Since new metabolites aren’t being excreted into the bladder after these steps, each subsequent urine sample will have a lower concentration of metabolites. Eventually, the concentration may fall below the test’s cutoff level, allowing you to pass a urine drug test.

Restoring urine parameters

When undergoing a drug test, a critical aspect is the urine validity test.

This assessment checks for various urine components, including specific gravity (the weighted amount of essential minerals), creatinine levels (a byproduct of creatine breakdown), and urine color.

If these parameters are outside the normal range, your urine sample might be marked as diluted, necessitating a retest.

To prevent this, it’s important to restore these parameters by consuming additional vitamins and minerals.

Does Jazz Total Detox drink work?

To answer this question let’s dissect the ingredients in Jazz Detox Drink to see how they contribute to same-day detox:

1. Purified Water: Hydration is key. It dilutes urine, which can temporarily lower the concentration of drug metabolites.
2. Glucose, Sucrose: Sugars like these increase insulin levels in the body. When insulin rises, the breakdown of body fat stops, meaning less THC is released into the blood and urine. So in this context, sugars are useful.
3. Taurine: It doesn’t seem to provide any benefit to the same-day detox protocol.
4. Inositol: While involved in some metabolic processes, it doesn’t directly assist in detoxification.
5. L-lysine Monohydrochloride, L-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine: These amino acids are primarily for protein synthesis and don’t help much with detox.
6. Caffeine: Acts as a diuretic, increasing urine production, which can be beneficial for flushing out toxins.
7. Potassium Chloride, Sodium Chloride: These electrolytes are essential to maintain the balance and could help restore specific gravity.
8. Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): This vitamin acts as a diuretic and can also influence urine color.
9. Vitamin B Complex (Thiamin, Riboflavin, Pyridoxine HCL, Cyanocobalamin): B vitamins are known to help restore the natural color of urine and support energy metabolism.
10. Creatine Monohydrate: It’s crucial for maintaining normal creatinine levels in diluted urine.
11. Other Ingredients: Including natural flavors, preservatives, colorings, and additional vitamins, these components enhance taste, extend shelf life, and affect appearance. They support general health but don’t directly impact the detox process.

Verdict

The Jazz Detox Drink contains ingredients aimed at blocking the release of THC from fat cells, slowing drug metabolism in the liver, and preventing the reabsorption of THC back into the blood in the intestines.

Vitamins are included to restore urine color, and creatine is added to maintain creatinine levels.

There are also some minerals to help restore specific gravity.

However, the quantity and effectiveness of these minerals in restoring specific gravity are questionable.

Therefore, during a urine validity check, there’s a possibility that the specific gravity may be low, potentially marking your urine as diluted, and you might need to retest.

Side effects

Now, let’s quickly talk about the potential side effects of the ingredients in Jazz Detox Drink:

1. Increased Urination and Potential Dehydration: Due to diuretics like caffeine.
2. Electrolyte Imbalance: This can occur if excessive amounts of water are consumed.
3. Gastrointestinal Discomfort: Some ingredients may cause stomach upset.
4. Nausea and Vomiting: Possibly from consuming a large volume of liquid.
5. Headaches: Could be due to caffeine or electrolyte imbalance.
6. Jitteriness or Insomnia: Again, caffeine is the culprit here.
7. Allergic Reactions: Any ingredient, particularly natural flavors and colorings, can cause this.
8. High Blood Sugar Levels: A concern for diabetics, due to glucose and sucrose.
9. Hypertension: From sodium chloride and caffeine.
10. Cramps or Muscle Spasms: Resulting from electrolyte imbalance.
11. Heart Palpitations: Caffeine can cause this.
12. Stress on Kidneys: Increased filtration demands from higher fluid intake could stress your kidneys.

Instructions

The usage is straightforward. Drink the entire bottle and then refill it with water or another drink at least three times.

Maximum detoxification is expected after urinating 3-4 times, which may take 60-90 minutes or more.

For individuals over 230 pounds, two bottles are necessary.
