What Is Detoxification?
Detoxification is about cleansing and nourishing the body from the inside out through the elimination of toxins and input of healthy nutrients to the body.
Our body eliminate toxins mainly through these 7 organs:
Skin
Absorbs and releases toxins through perspiration and dead skin cells that eventually flake off.
Liver
Detoxifies the blood, break down hormones, extracts the essential vitamins and minerals and produces bile to digest fats.
Kidneys
Flushes out waste and toxins from the body through filtering them out of the blood and discharge it in the form of urine.
Lungs
Take in oxygen into the bloodstream directly and removes waste gases that are produced in our body cells during energy producing cycle at the same time.
Blood
Transport substances throughout the body, delivering the needed nutrition to those areas that are in need.
Lymph
A healthy lymphatic system parallels the red blood circulation and filters out bacteria, virus and other pathogens from the circulation.
Colon
Serves the function of transporting solid waste out of the body so that it would not be circulated back into the bloodstream.
