I've had this happen too... though the effects were slight, they were noticable. Most body purifyers work with the liver and kidneys, thus purifying the blood, and toxins already built up in these organs. I assume that the effects are felt because of the body is trying to fight off these toxins, and while in the midst some get released back into the bloodstream. Any psychoactive substances, medications, and food additives would be released in miniscule amounts I would assume. I am only guessing here, but it seems logical.
