Confused by Detox?

What is Detox?

Detox or detoxification for short is in general the removal of toxic substances.  It is one of the major functions of the liver, lower gastrointestinal tract and kidneys, but can also be achieved artificially by techniques such as dialysis and (in a very limited number of cases) chelation therapy.

If our body is overloaded with toxins it could result in various symptoms including constipation, stomach bloating, poor digestion, fatigue, weight gain, poor concentration, headaches, poor skin, depression, body odour and bad breath. With increased environmental influences our body does not have the ability and does not know how to remove these toxins circulating in the bloodstream, thus they can accumulate and cause harmful effects to body and mind.

There is a huge number of methods to help you detoxify your body. The purpose of my site is to help you make an informed decision as what detox program is right for you.

I have gathered together articles freely available from the internet covering the many aspects of detox from a basic introduction, detox diets, detox fasting, teas, enemas, herbal detox.
