You might have the question which is WHY are detox products created if we can do it on our own? Did you even know that detox products are not the only way to detoxify your body? If you haven't read the post on the supposed scam of detoxifying your body, I recommend you at least skim that section, as this post will be an extension to further prove why I believe in the subject of detoxification. It will be a short series to explain the purpose of these products and some further insight on detoxification itself, and why you need the process to live a healthy life.
The body detoxifies itself naturally in five ways, they are through the kidneys, the respiratory system, the digestive system, the liver, and your skin. If you wanted to find out how to detoxify your body in the past, all you needed to know was that you should exercise frequently and eat a nutritional diet in order that your body will function properly and be able to take on the task of detoxifying yourself on autopilot.
The Ways Of A Natural Body Detox
The kidney:
The bodies detoxifies itself through the kidneys by the ways of removing liquid waste, also known as urine. The process is simple - you eat food and drink liquids - the body digests the substances to remove nutrients in order to help the body function properly. Your body is mostly made of water, so it makes sense that you need to be properly hydrated throughout the day and in order to complete whatever tasks you have to do. The best choice liquid for hydration by the way is water - it's what your body is composed of, doesn't get any more simple than providing your body with one of the basic fuels it need to operate.
After the digestive process has finished, the remaining substance contains nothing beneficial to the body, thereby it contains everything that is harmful if re-ingested. In relation to liquid waste, the kidneys filter out the toxins and you let it all out through urine by either access from the vagina or the penis.
The respiratory system:
A less obvious method of how the body detoxifies itself, this time through the air. The respiratory system, which includes your lungs and diaphragm, not only give you the oxygen you need to breathe, but expels the carbon dioxide that you need to get rid of, or else you would die. Now this is obvious, but carbon dioxide is not the only harmful substance removed through the respiratory system - you breathe in numerous amounts of toxic chemicals everyday, and it gets worst from all the products created for us. The air, land and water becomes polluted with the chemicals used during manufacturing these products, and some new chemicals are produced - and these are even more dangerous for your body. Each day you breathe all these chemicals - carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, and then chemical compouns such as ammonia and benzene. Some of these chemicals are cancer causing agents, defined as carcinogens. Other effects on the body from contraction of these chemicals include memory loss, skin diseases, cell destruction and even death.
The digestive system:
Natural body detoxification using the digestive process is similar to that of the kidneys. In this case the liver, large and small intestines deal with solid food which eventually becomes solid waste full of toxic material to be expunged through the anus.
The liver:
The liver "transforms" toxic substances into water-soluble substances. This means that they can be put out of the body through urine or perspiration, which leads us to the final step of a natural body detox.
The skin:
Ever wonder why people frequent sauna rooms and spas? Why would people actually want to do something as disgusting like sweating on purpose - what could they possible gain by actually wanting to stay in a hot and stuffy room, sitting around and doing nothing for minutes. The skin actually detoxifies the body through sweat - toxins are expelled out of the body through the pores of the skin. When you shed dead skin cells, you also remove some toxins from the body in that process as well.
Wonder No More On How To Detoxify Your Body
The organs of the body complete so many processes, especially the liver - but that is a post on it's own for another day. In this case, some of the same organs also help remove harmful substances from your body in order to keep you healthy. You just have to eat organic and naturally healthy food, and exercise more than once per week. Keep your body in shape and working strength and it will protect you from harmful toxins automatically.
