Detoxification is a natural and ongoing process of neutralization and elimination of toxins or contamination from your body. Though most of us may not notice, there is some detoxification happening all the time in our body that is necessary to maintain life and for health. Detoxification promotes the excretion of toxins stored in your lungs, liver, kidney, bowels and blood circulation.

The liver is the primary organ that detoxifies toxins by filtering toxins and contaminants from the blood and breaking it down into smaller compounds that can be excreted by other eliminating organs. The kidney filters toxins from the blood into urine and the lung removes any gaseous wastes through exhalation. The bowel remove most solid wastes and bacteria toxins from your bowel. Therefore, it is important that these organs are always working properly.

If not eliminated properly and the toxins accumulate in the eliminating organs, it will prevent the organs from functioning properly. This can cause hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiency and slowing of metabolism. Excess toxins that are not broken down and eliminated are reabsorbed into the blood circulation where it interferes with nutrient absorption and is the precursor for bacteria, viruses and parasites to multiply.

Although many expert have said that detoxification is a natural process and our bodies do not help, it is also true that we now consume and are exposed to a far greater amount of toxins through food, water, and environment compared with one or two generations ago. Without any help, these new new surplus toxins will accumulate in our organs gradually and interfere with organs functions. When this occurs, the flow of energy in your body will be interrupted and that can effect your emotional or physical wellness.
