It is a natural function of our bodies to continuously detox though our skin, kidneys, liver, digestive tract, and even through our lungs! It is only when our detoxification mechanisms become overloaded that the process becomes less efficient and symptoms may occur. Toxins may be either internal or external in origin. Pollution or pesticides in our food put undue stress on our kidneys and liver, the primary organs of elimination.

Poor digestion and imbalanced gut flora (dysbiosis) provide internal toxic byproducts. Certain bacteria can cause inflammatory responses within the gut and impact overall health often making it difficult to properly absorb nutrients and causing digestive problems such as gas, bloating and constipation or diarrhea.

It has been suggested that toxic overload contributes to more serious conditions such as autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and Hashimotos thyroiditis. It may also contribute to neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s and certain types of dementia.
