Research Brief
Our bodies are constantly exposed to harmful agents through diet, air supply, and other channels. Nature has provided several remarkable ways for our bodies to detoxify themselves. We can assist this process through nutrients that support the body's key cleansing tools, including the liver, immune, urinary, gastrointestinal, circulatory, and glandular systems.
In particular, the liver is responsible for the production, storage, metabolism, and distribution of a multitude of nutrients essential to a healthy body. The liver absorbs waste products, converts some of them into useable elements, and excretes those that are harmful. At the same time, the liver produces vitamin A and stores vitamins A, D, and B12. Other essential substances produced by the liver include glucose and proteins for use throughout the body and important factors to clot the blood. The liver helps break down fats and other substances, and it also helps produce and break down hormones.
Toxicity is of much greater concern in the 21st century than ever before. A toxin is basically any substance that creates irritating and/or harmful effects in the body, undermining our health or stressing our biochemical or organ functions. This may result from drugs that have side effects or from patterns of physiology that are different from our usual functioning. one recent study found that environmental pollutants damage the body's natural weight-control mechanisms and contribute to higher obesity rates in major cities. In addition, toxic free radicals irritate, age, inflame, and cause degeneration of body tissues. Negative thought patterns and emotions can be toxins as well, both as stressors and by changing the normal physiology of the body, which can produce specific symptoms. A vital part of getting healthy and staying healthy is ridding your body of toxins. FAQs
