Signs You Need To Detox

Updated: Apr 8, 2021

It is no surprise to learn that we live in a polluted world. The harmful effects and dangers have been revealed through time and research. There is a link between increased toxin exposure and autoimmune conditions. Our bodies are designed to dispose of these unwanted visitors naturally to keep us healthy. When one of our systems is off in our body, it can affect another part and lead to chaos. This is especially true for the detoxification process. Problems in this process can lead to poor health. That is why it is more important than ever to assist your detoxification system and keep it working correctly. There are many parts to our body's detoxification system. However, there is a key player, which is your body's largest internal organ, the liver.


Your liver has a significant role to play as it stays in constant communication with your stomach, gallbladder, pancreas, and the rest of your digestive system. The liver is responsible for converting nutrients from the foods you eat for your body to use. The liver also plays a role in the metabolism of fat, carbohydrates, and protein. It also works to make sure that blood glucose levels stay stable and prevents blood sugar imbalances. It's also a blood purifier, as it takes out the impurities in the blood so that our bodies take what will help and get rid of what will compromise our health. Its primary purpose is to filter toxins from the foods we eat and whatever else we are exposed to in the environment.


Your liver is one busy organ, so if that stops functioning well, your ability to detox will significantly reduce. When your liver is overloaded with toxins because it can't process them fast enough, this creates many problems such as chronic inflammation in your body, which further affects the liver from being able to rid itself of toxins. It becomes a terrible cycle of toxic build-up, the body becomes more inflamed, and the detoxification is inhibited and repeat! The only way to break the cycle is to reduce your toxin exposure and support your liver's natural ability to detox, allowing the liver to restore itself and catch up with the detoxification workload.

  • Chronic inflammation
