The terms "cleaning out" or "detox" do not have a physiological explanation or diagnostic tool. In other words, they are made up by people that don't know that much about human physiology.

A good healthy approach to improve you health is to eat a ton of fruits, veges, legumes, whole grains and low fat protein sources and a lot of water.

^^^^ This.

Drinking lots of water does worlds of difference for my overall health and general psyche.

I also feel good when I cut my calories down for a week or so, usually cutting them like 30%. When I eat a lot on a bulk, I feel sluggish and cleaning out my digestive track makes me feel light and also seems to increase my energy.

Several reasons why water works so well and makes one feel better. Your body is 80% water so just the slightest dehydration can make you lethargic, hungry, depressed. Also a lot of times we eat thinking we are hungry when in reality we are thirsty. Rule of thumb.. Drink water first, then eat.
