Certain toxins can stay in your system for quite some time. For instance, after the use of marijuana the body can retain the metabolites for as long as two month. Even from one time use it can be detected for a few weeks – a fact that is useful to know, especially if you did a little something a while ago and now need to pass a drug test.

-          Hello, I was wondering if I can ask you a question. I want to know how long does marijuana stays in the system. I smoked a half a joint over a month ago, and I have a urine drug test coming up which I need to make sure I pass. I am not an everyday smoker, so I thought that I would be clean by now, but I went and got at-home urine test panel, and it said I was positive! I did not believe it, so I got another one – positive again! How long will it stay in my system now?

-          Generally, from one time use it should not stay in the body for too long. Have you used any detox products to help get cleanser?

-          No, I did not know I had to go for a drug test until yesterday.

-          And you have not used anything for a month? Have you been exposed to a second-hand smoke, perhaps?

-          You know what, I ate half a brownie at my friend’s house last week – I know she smokes pot, but she did not tell me if she put any into the brownies… I kind of felt funny, but I thought maybe it was a sugar rush, because I do not normally eat sweets… Yeah, that would explain it, because it happened just last week! I guess I better find out! Can you send me a detox drink meanwhile, so I can pass this test?
