To answer your first question..

The only thing that is proven to permanently "detox" the body of THC is time and fat-burning exercise.

Drinking fluids is only helpful on the day of the U/A. Drinking fluids days or weeks before the U/A is of no help. It must be understood that THC is not water-soluble unlike other types of drugs. THC is fat-soluble. It is stored in the fat cells and remain there until the fat cells are burned for energy. Therefore, you cannot "wash" or "flush" THC from the fat cells by drinking copius amounts of water like you can wash dirt from a car. Doesnt work that way.

When fat cells are burned, the THC metabolites are released back into the bloodstream. From there, the kidneys filter the THC metabolites from the bloodstream and are deposited into the bladder for the eventual exit. The rate in which the THC metabolites are filtered from the bloodstream by the kidneys is unaffected by copius fluid consumption.

The purpose of drinking water/fluids is to dilute (thin out) the THC metabolite concentration that is present in the bladder. The idea is to thin out the concentration enough to where the urine sample registers below the cutoff thresholds of a U/A screen. This dilution phenomena, however, is only temporary - once the fluids ingested had all been urinated out, the bladder is replenished with fresh THCA-laden urine, and thus the donor would resume testing positive for THC.

Your second question will not be answered, nor its up for any discussion in the forum. Only cannabis can be discussed in the forums. Discussions of other types of drugs (including tobacco) are prohibited, as per the Board Rules (linked to my signature).
