Detoxification is the process of clearing toxins from the body or neutralizing or transforming them, and clearing excess mucus and congestion, illness and fatigue. Many toxins come from our diet, drug use, additives, heavy metals, and environmental exposure. Poor digestion, colon sluggishness and dysfunction, reduced liver function, and poor elimination through the kidneys, respiratory tract, and skin all add to increased toxicity. Detoxification involves dietary and lifestyle changes that reduce intake of toxins and improve elimination. Avoiding: refined food, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and many drugs helps minimize the toxin load.
