Body Natural Detoxification System


Toxins have a severe negative impact on your vital organs. These toxic substances accumulated through out the years will gradually but definitely degrade your internal organs and its functionality. Our body does have an effective natural detoxification system but with the regular intake of toxic substances, the input rate will exceed the rate the toxins are discarded. Once the body has accumulated enough toxins, it will start to show a multitude of negative signals such as constipation, skin problems, halitosis, bloated belly and even body odors. This is the reason why you need to help your body's natural detoxification system to detox your body once in a while to help it get rid of the accumulated toxin. Think of it as "spring cleaning" your body and at the same time giving your body a break.

A body detox is great for your body but understanding your body's natural detoxification system is important to help you understand how it eliminate toxins from your body. The organs involved in the body's detoxification process include the liver, skin, lungs, kidneys and the colon.

The liver is the largest glandular organ in your body and is situated on the right side of the abdominal cavity just below the diaphragm. The human liver has many functions; hundreds as a matter of fact. Other than functioning as a cleansing organ, the liver is also a storage location for vitamins and minerals and in charge of maintaining a right level of glucose in the blood.
Interesting facts: Did you know that the liver is also responsible for producing cholesterol? Almost 80%! The liver also plays an imperative role in the natural detoxification system as the liver is in charge for breaking down fats, converting ammonia into urea and extracting harmful toxins from the blood.

The Lungs are commonly known as the paired organs in the chest that carry out respiration. What a lot of people don't know is that the lungs are also a very important part of the body's natural detoxification system. The lungs aid in discarding the waste created in your body that occurs as a result of a metabolic function. A waste gas called carbon dioxide created from the metabolism of food is carried by blood to be expelled from the body through the lungs.
Interesting facts: Lung function decreases about 2% a year for people who smoke as compared to 1% for those who don't. That's double the declination rate! So don't smoke! Stop smoking is one of the first things you need to do in a body detox program.

The skin is the largest external organ of your body. The skin aids the main organs in the body's natural detoxification system to get rid of waste buildup. It can eliminate up to 2 pounds of waste daily by excreting waste product and excess salt from the body. When you sweat, you are actually discarding waste products in solution form from the body.

The colon is the end portion of the human gastrointestinal tract that begin with the mouth and ends at the anus. It consists of the large intestine, rectum, and anus. Colon is like the body's sewage system. The colon's main functions are absorption of water and nutrients, and the formation and elimination of feces. Substances that your body does not need or that are toxic are eliminated in the form of feces. If this system is not well taken cared of and becomes overloaded, it can become blocked, thereby forcing the toxins back into your body. Constipation is a symptom of a poor functioning colon. If this continues, it can cause a much severe problem such as colon disease and obesity.

The kidneys, being part of your body's natural detoxification system is in charged of keep your blood clean and chemically balanced. The kidneys extract wastes and extra water from the blood to form urine that will be discarded by the body later on. Overloaded kidneys can lead to a lot of health issues because if the kidneys are unable to cope with the bombardment of toxic input into the body, the waste will accumulate. Without properly functioning kidneys, sepsis and even death can occur. That is why cleansing the kidneys on a regular basis is so important.

Now that you know how important is the body's natural detoxification system to your overall health, it's important that you keep it in perfect condition by detoxing your body once in a while to keep it in good working order.
