What is detoxification?

We are somehow conscious of the external cleanliness. We bathe, we clean our teeth and wash hair every other day or daily. We like to smell pleasant and look clean as it makes us feel good. Similarly, detoxification is the internal cleansing of our body. It is usually tough to understand or identify if the internal cleansing system is properly functioning or not. Unlike the other body parts, it is tough to identify how well the liver has been working as it is the main detoxification organ. Besides, synthesizing and secreting bile, the liver filters the toxins & bacteria in our blood & chemically neutralizes the toxins converting them to substances which are eliminated by the kidney.

Though detoxification system is the most ignored by the current medical system, it is the main component of the body’s functionality. Most of the molecules which are made in our body daily are to get rid of the waste products. The body requires 100s of enzymes and vitamins along with other molecules for helping it get rid of the unwanted waste and chemicals. We need to produce these molecules for assisting in taking the good of what we ingest & leave the unwanted substances. Though massive work is performed by liver along with intestinal tract, kidneys, lymphatic system, lungs, and skin are also involved in the complex system of detoxification.

The purpose of detoxification programs is mainly for supporting aforementioned organs and to metabolize and excrete the toxins in our body. It is vital for good health.
