To detox or not to detox?

Our bodies are exposed to toxins every day. From the air we breathe, the food we eat, the products we use on our bodies to the products we use in our homes. But even if one were to remove all these toxins from the environment, you still wouldn’t be free of them since our bodies also naturally produce toxins.

Our bodies were however created with an inbuilt self-regulating system capable of eliminating toxins produced within and those from the environment. To survive, these systems must be operational 24/7, 365 days a year, not just for a few days or weeks as prescribed by popular detox regimens.
