Body Detoxification Can Give You a Better Quality of Life

The human body contains its own unique detoxification system that eliminates waste. Working together this amazing filtration system helps flush toxins out of your body to keep you healthy. So, why would you need to follow a program to detox your body?

To understand why you might need a body detox, you need to understand exactly what the vital organs do. The livers job is to filter waste and toxins out of the blood. If you’re liver is healthy, it will cleanse almost two quarts of blood every minute!

The liver also performs other jobs like storing essential vitamins and minerals and burning fat. It literally neutralizes toxic substances and changes them into a form that can be flushed out of the body. It also produces bile; bile is used by the gallbladder to help digest food.

If the liver has an over abundance of toxins, they get carried into the gallbladder along with the bile. Eventually the gallbladder will become inflamed and unable to digest food and eliminate waste properly. When this happens, too much cholesterol, bile salts, proteins and fats remain in the gallbladder and form gall stones.

Your kidneys have the job of filtering the blood. As your blood travels through the body, it collects toxins. Blood is diverted through the kidneys where these toxins are filtered out and released into urine. Most people have from 1 to 1 1/2 gallons of blood that is constantly circulating through the body and gets filtered up to 400 times each day.

The body produces mucus and uses it as a filter; it helps protect the blood from toxins. The more toxins that your body has, the more mucus it produces. This mucus starts at your tongue and goes into the intestines. It actually coats the entire digestive tract to help prevent the absorption of toxins.

Over time, your entire digestive tract becomes coated in thick mucus and it can’t absorb the essential nutrients from food. The mucus eventually hardens and becomes trapped and fewer nutrients can be absorbed into the body. Without the proper nutrition the body becomes weak and more susceptible to illness and disease.

When your intestinal tract is clogged with mucus and filled with waste that can’t be eliminated, it creates a breeding ground for parasites and worms! It is estimated that some where around 150 million people in the United States alone have parasite infestation.

These huge stock piles of waste become stagnant and ferment producing harmful bacteria and poisons that seep out into your bloodstream. They then settle in parts of the body that are the weakest and create diseases and major medical problems.

When you start experiencing symptoms from diseases you generally go to a doctor for treatment. However, treatment is given for the disease, while the cause of the disease is left untreated. Unless you rid your body of the poisonous waste in your intestinal tract, another disease will soon develop.

Every tissue in the body is fed through the blood and the blood is supplied from the bowels. If your bowels are full of stagnant, poison waste, then your blood will carry that with them as it circulates through the body and organs.

Today more than ever, pollution from the air and water are at an all time high. We are literally surrounded by thousands of toxins each day both inside and outside of our homes. These toxins are waging war on our bodies and stealing our health and quality of life.

Accumulated toxins can cause headaches, nausea, fatigue, skin disorders and breathing disorders among other problems. More serious affects on your health can include heart, kidney and liver disease, tumors and cancer. And, there is still much to be learned about the effect toxins have on the human body.

While it is true that the body is designed to eliminate toxic waste, it’s just simply unable to keep up with the high demand. Air filter traps dust and other particles in the air, but once it’s full it can’t filter anymore. Our bodies are getting so full of toxins that it needs help in eliminating them.

Through body detoxification, you can give its natural filtration system a helping hand. There are many simple regimens to follow that can help release toxins and stimulate your body into eliminating them. Some only require a commitment of a few days, while others may take up to a month.

As much as 20 pounds of waste could be literally stuck inside your colon. It’s making you physically sick, but it’s making you emotionally sick as well. The emotional stress that illness and pain inflicts can lead to anxiety and depression.

Even with the great advancements in science, often aliments and symptoms can’t be treated because a physician can’t find the source of what’s causing the problems. Could it be that these unidentifiable problems are caused by the toxins trapped in our bodies?
