Every day, every minute, every second, our body is subjected to an uninterrupted attack of toxins. The meaning of the word "toxin" comes from the Greek "toxikos", which originally meant poison in which arrows were dipped. Toxins are a poison that humanity has had to learn to deal with.

There are many ways in which toxins enter the human body.
The most obvious way is from the external environment. Naturally, large metropolitan areas are the epicenter of toxic emissions. But it is a mistake to think that by moving away from large cities, getting rid of bad habits such as smoking and alcohol, humanity can be guaranteed to avoid the risks of toxic poisoning. Industrial food is replete with various kinds of preservatives, sweeteners, dyes, flavorings and thickeners, food additives with the letter code E. And all this, in most cases, is also toxins.

Another source of environmental toxins is tons of "chemical weapons" in the form of herbicides, pesticides and other chemical fertilizers, sprayed over orchards and vegetable fields year after year to control pests and weeds. The purpose of these agricultural pesticides is to destroy. It's simple: performing their main function of killing organic structures - weeds and pests, pesticides and herbicides in the composition of fruits and vegetables first get on our table, and then into our body (also an organic structure).
And finally, drugs, such as, for example, the most common paracetamol, are nothing more than a serious liver toxin.

However, not only the external environment is an uninterrupted supplier of toxins.
There are also many internal toxins that are formed inside the body as a result of a metabolic disorder or some kind of disease, leading to the accumulation of toxic decay products and, consequently, to poisoning and intoxication. Many of these toxins are produced by bacteria and fungi. Moreover, both useful, friendly, and pathogenic.

Even with an optimally functioning gastrointestinal mechanism, part of the food entering the body is not digested. Unprocessed foods decompose. Toxins appear. They settle in the intestines and, with a favorable development of events, the body manages to remove them. So, in three to five hours, the body, on average, can absorb no more than 100-150 g of meat. In an unfavorable combination of circumstances, toxins begin to poison the body.
As mentioned above, toxins are often formed in the body during various diseases and inflammations. It is especially bad if these diseases or inflammations are carried “on the legs”. After all, rest and drinking plenty of water is the most important measure that helps to reduce the intensity of the movement of toxins through the body and contribute to their rapid removal.

Signs of toxins in the body
Evidence that the body may suffer from an overabundance of toxins can be frequent headaches, poor sleep, chronic fatigue, decreased stress tolerance, mood swings and depression, difficulty in concentration and learning, neurological disorders. Also, an increased level of toxic infection can be indicated by more frequent colds, low immunity, hormonal disorders, muscle and joint pain, skin rashes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, asthma, allergies, digestive problems, deterioration of hair, nails and skin. All these conditions, in turn, are the forerunner of more serious complications and diseases. These signs should be a signal that it's time to pay attention to the problem of detoxification of the body.

cleansing
But no matter how pessimistic all of the above may sound, in fact, everything is not so unambiguously bad. Our body can start a program of cleansing, detoxification.
Detoxification is the process of preventing the effects of poisons on the body and the process of ridding our body of harmful toxic substances. The organ responsible for the natural detoxification of the body is the liver.

In the case of normal functioning of a healthy liver, it is possible to neutralize toxins in a timely manner, after which they are excreted from the body naturally. And only if the amount of toxins in the body exceeds the ability (potential) of the body to remove them, the process of poisoning the body begins.

In other words, if the liver for some reason cannot cope with the task of detoxification, fat cells and the brain, musculoskeletal tissue and internal organs are gradually clogged with toxic poisons. Also, toxins settle in the liver itself.

In the event of signs of slagging of the body with toxins, you should not think that something irreparably bad has definitely happened to the liver. For various reasons in the body there is a violation of the barrier functions of the intestines, blood flow, lymphatic network, etc., leading to the fact that the main toxic blow rushes to the liver. That is why it is so important to provide the liver with all possible assistance and support in the process of its fight against toxins in a timely manner. And first of all, with the help of special activators, it is necessary to normalize the function of the liver itself, protect it from damage, and then the liver will independently cope with the role of a detoxifier, as it should be.

Doctors call liver function activators substances that improve metabolic processes in the liver, are stimulants of these processes, improve detoxification, enzymatic reactions, absorption of useful elements - everything that leads to the full functioning of the liver.

The second function of detoxification is to strengthen liver cells. That is, on the one hand, activities should be carried out to improve metabolism, liver function, on the other hand, activities should be carried out to protect the liver so that the effects of toxins are limited. To help the process of strengthening and restoring the work of liver cells, doctors often prescribe a course of hepatoprotector - a drug that improves metabolic processes in liver cells, supports the liver, and increases the activity of detoxification processes.

The functioning substance of modern hepatoprotectors, for example, "Prohepara", is obtained from the liver of young cattle. Such drugs have an evidence-based clinical base. They contribute to the preservation and restoration of the structure of hepatocytes, have antioxidant properties, normalize the level of insulin in the blood, and are responsible for energy metabolism.

Detoxification of the body can be a key factor not only in the process of preventing, and sometimes getting rid of many dangerous diseases. But even if there is no reason to worry about the state of health, this is the surest way to a young, beautiful, well-groomed and healthy appearance. Be healthy! And be great!

Isn't it true that you wash your face every day, brush your teeth, put your hair in order, take a shower regularly, follow the "beauty of nails" according to Pushkin? By polishing your appearance, do you consolidate success with bodybuilding, deodorants, perfumes, cosmetics, stylish clothes?

And it is right. You care about a comfortable, confident self-feeling, a favorable presentation of yourself to society in order to avoid a situation, as Zhvanetsky said: “They met me by clothes, they also saw me badly.”

And how often do you think in the bustle of our difficult everyday life, and do you even think about the fact that our “internal”, invisible to the prying eye (organs, systems, cells, fluids) also tends to get dirty?

Isn't it time to pay attention to their cleansing and putting in order? Moreover, sooner or later, everything well-hidden will break out, affect your appearance, your general well-being.

What rubbish do we carry around?

The side effects of civilization were:

Dirty air, indigestible water.

Office and kitchen appliances “enrich” our habitat with harmful radiation.

Increased nervousness at work, discussion of political or tragic events, bank loans - lead to stress.

Products - genetically modified, stuffed with nitrates, preservatives, hormones, pesticides, antibiotics.

Furniture evaporates phenol, a carcinogenic substance that poisons the nervous system. Plastic, linoleum, wallpaper, carpet emit harmful chemicals.

Volatile organics hazardous to health are components of paints, detergents, cleaning products, all kinds of fresheners, deodorants.

Add to this heavy metals, radionuclides in the air, water, soil, food.

As well as toxins secreted by salmonella, viruses, botulinum; components of the decay of malignant tumors.

And to them - overeating, hypodynamia. All kinds of plant or chemical allergens. Smoking, medicines, alcoholic and carbonated drinks. Narcotic substances.

And now, we see how and what our body is clogged with. Which, mind you, works in a constant non-stop mode, by and large does not have the possibility of a good rest or reboot. You can't turn it off for maintenance either. But it requires regular cleaning, as toxic accumulations gradually poison it, which means - US.

And we simply have to roll up our sleeves and help him clean up the most vital knots of our joint life.

Toxins is the official medical term. These are harmful substances coming from outside or produced by the body .

slag it is customary to call waste, from which the body should have got rid of it without regrets, “thrown away” away, but instead put it in the bins.

The reason for this is usually:

• Weakened barrier functions.
• Metabolic disorders.
• The result of prolonged use of antibiotics, which can be fraught with the formation of resistant forms of bacteria. The topic "" is quite acute now before humanity, earlier we paid due attention to it.

But in fact, this is the same concept - toxins.

They are:

• water soluble
• fat soluble
  

First- accumulate in the blood, lymph, intercellular space, intracellular fluid, connecting with proteins, remain to live in organs that are actively supplied with blood: the liver, intestines, kidneys, heart, the functions of which for the health of any of us can hardly be overestimated.

Second- concentrated in adipose tissue.

It is not in vain that a sharp weight loss or a massage from cellulite can cause poor health: these are toxins from stale places that scatter wherever the eyes look, enter the bloodstream and again inflict a pernicious, poisonous blow.

First of all, poisons strike nervous system and brain.

Yes, brain. And what about fat? The fact is that the tissues of his gray matter contain more than 30%, white - about 55%, and the sheath of nerve fibers is about 70% lipids.

Mother Nature made sure that the body independently used the incoming substances and got rid of unnecessary ones.

The liver is the main "janitor" ". Or even rather, the head of a cleaning company. It is she who first of all processes toxins, and then they are removed through kidneys .
Dysfunction of the liver leads to the fact that toxic components, entering the bloodstream, are dispersed throughout the "neighborhood".

Kidneys. Most of the harmful waste filtered from the blood is removed through them. Swollen legs? Do you feel pain in the kidney area? This indicates failures in their functions, pollution.

Intestines. Everything that we consume unhealthy with food settles on its walls.

Involved in the cleansing process leather . Through her pores decay products come out in the form of sweat.

Poisonous components are also excreted by the stomach - vomit.

The accumulation of toxic compounds leads to the fact that organs and systems cannot cope with neutralization, intoxication.

And then:

Headaches, bad breath or body odor, tongue lining, you are irritated, often tired, feel overwhelmed, sleep poorly, eat, your mood is at zero.

Look in the mirror, see a rash (acne), deterioration of the hair. And this is not the worst manifestation.

Digestion is disturbed. Intestinal disorders are becoming more frequent, flatulence is aggravated, more and more often. Reduced immunity.

These and many other features are found in chronic intoxication .

Acute poisoning produces even more pronounced symptoms, in particular, pain, high fever, and allergic reactions are added.

slagged body wears out faster, diseases of the blood, internal organs develop. All this taken together entails early aging. Please note that even medications begin to act much worse.

So, have you found your symptoms?

In addition to the polluted environment, the human body itself also produces toxins. As a result of metabolic processes, chemical waste accumulates in the body, which undermine health.

The accumulation of harmful substances in the body is also called "slagging". Over time, the accumulation of toxins in the body can lead to severe, chronic health problems.

According to some medical studies, about 75% of diseases occur due to the effects of toxins on the organs and systems of the body. Headaches, chronic respiratory diseases and even autism have been linked to the accumulation of dangerous substances in the body.

Harmful toxins we are exposed to every day

You may not be aware that harmful substances are affecting you. Let's take a closer look at the three types of toxins that people most often encounter in everyday life.

Cosmetics

The average woman uses about 12 beauty products daily. Male - about 6. Chemicals from cosmetics freely penetrate the skin and spread throughout the body. So, trying to look good on the outside, we often poison ourselves from the inside. Use natural cosmetics free of fragrances, acrylates, aluminium, formaldehyde, oxybenzone, parabens, triclosan, polyethylene glycol and phthalates that may be found in plastic packaging (choose glass containers if possible). Also, never reheat food in plastic containers.

Lead-containing cosmetics are of great concern. Surprisingly, there are still no laws that would regulate the content of lead in one of the most popular cosmetic products - lipstick. Lead has been found in 60% of cosmetics from 30 well-known lipstick brands.

psychoactive substances

Everyone has long known that harmful substances in tobacco, alcohol and drugs increase the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease. However, many still do not realize that these toxins also disrupt the brain, leading to dementia.

Alcohol causes the death of brain cells, a decrease in its volume, increases the risk of dementia. It also reduces blood flow to the brain, causes inflammation of the intestines, neuralgia, and liver failure. A link has been found between alcohol toxins and 7 types of cancer.

Mold

Mold toxins disrupt brain function. If you are constantly sneezing, coughing, watery eyes, irritated skin, then you may be exposed to mold.

In this case, the first step is to eliminate the source of mold. To detect infection with mycotoxins, you can take a special blood test. Mycotoxins are treated with antifungals and other medications.

Often poisoning from mold, carbon monoxide and other toxins also affects the brain, causing a decrease in concentration, memory problems, personality changes, which, in turn, often leads to false diagnoses. It is important to understand that the impact of toxins on the brain and other organs is reflected not only in the current state, but also in future health.

Cleansing the body of toxins and toxins

Cleansing the body has long been practiced by many peoples around the world, in particular in Ayurveda and Chinese medicine. In order to cleanse the body of toxins, it is necessary to rest, cleanse and nourish the body from the inside. First of all, toxins are removed from the body, and then saturation with useful substances occurs. Detox helps restore health and boost immunity.

How does body cleansing work?

Detoxification first cleanses the blood and liver, which are responsible for removing harmful substances from the body. In addition, toxins are eliminated through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymphatic system and skin. When the cleansing system of the body is damaged, harmful substances are not filtered out properly, which adversely affects health. Cleansing the body works because it acts at the level of individual cells - the smallest units of human life.

The detox program helps to start the body's natural cleansing process:

• Unloads organs due to starvation;
• Stimulates the work of the liver to eliminate toxins;
• Activates the elimination of toxins through the intestines, kidneys and skin;
• Improves blood supply;
• Saturates the body with valuable nutrients.

How to understand that the body needs to be cleansed of toxins?

It is recommended to cleanse the body at least once a year. However, detoxification is contraindicated for pregnant women, nursing mothers, children, people with severe or chronic diseases. If in doubt whether you can start cleansing the body, then first consult your doctor.

Body cleansing and renewal programs

With more toxins than ever in the environment, cleansing the body is vital. You are shown cleansing the body if you have the following manifestations:

• causeless fatigue
• constipation
• Skin rashes
• allergies
• Slow infection
• Bags under the eyes, puffy eyes
• Flatulence
• Problems with the monthly cycle

How to start cleansing the body?

First of all, reduce your intake of toxins. Give up alcoholic beverages, coffee, tobacco, white sugar, saturated fats, which clog the body with toxins and hinder recovery. Also, if possible, replace harmful household chemicals and hygiene products (soaps, shampoos, deodorants and toothpastes) with natural cosmetics.

Another hindrance to health is stress, which triggers the release of stress hormones into the bloodstream. The "adrenaline rush" may help you win a competition or meet a deadline, but in large quantities, these hormones produce toxins and inhibit the liver's detoxifying enzymes. Qigong, yoga and meditation can help you manage stress. These practices allow you to relax the mind and body, take a break from the inevitable anxieties of life.

How to choose a detox program?

There are many programs and recipes for cleansing the body - it all depends on your personal goals. Many programs last 7 days because it takes time for the body to cleanse the blood. Try the scheme: 2 days of fasting - 5 days of a detox diet to unload the digestive system. Also, for effective removal of toxins, you can arrange a three- or five-day unloading on water and freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices.

20 simple ways to remove toxins and toxins

Our body can become clogged with toxins from the environment through water (fluorine and other chemicals), air (emissions, pollution and other harmful substances), foods (chemicals, pesticides, preservatives, GMOs) and drugs.

To fully recover, you need to cleanse both the soul and the body. These 20 ways will help you kickstart your body's natural cleansing and flush out the waste and toxins you're exposed to every day:

1. Start your day with a glass of clean water with freshly squeezed lemon juice.

This will help remove toxins and alkalis from the body. Another remedy is a glass of water with a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Hippocrates treated his patients with apple cider vinegar. He discovered that vinegar is a powerful cleansing and healing elixir, a natural antibiotic and antiseptic that fights germs and bacteria, giving health, strength and longevity.

1. Drink more water

When it comes to cleansing your body, water is your best friend. This is perhaps the most valuable ally in detoxifying the body. Water is essential for all basic body functions. Our brain is 80% water, to keep it healthy, avoid any dehydrating substances such as alcohol and caffeine. Dehydration is only 2% lower in performance on attention, memory, and coordination tasks.

For an intense detox, aim to drink at least two liters of pure, filtered water a day. Use a carbon filter or a reverse osmosis system. And don't forget that juice, coffee, and soft drinks are not water substitutes.

1. Drink freshly squeezed vegetable juice every day

Put more greens in your juices - kale, spinach, parsley. Excellent healthy juice is obtained from a mixture of apples, carrots, lemon, ginger, turmeric, beets, cabbage and cilantro. Try to use as many seasonal fruits and vegetables as possible.

1. Reduce exposure to toxins

An air filter in your home will greatly improve the quality of the air you breathe. Whenever possible, use natural cleaners and personal care products to prevent toxins from penetrating the skin. To reduce the use of harmful pesticides, switch to organic products.

Avoid food in plastic packaging. Plastic contains substances called phthalates, which cause cancer and developmental problems in children, including early puberty.

1. Limit your consumption of foods with toxins

Buy organic and always wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly to get rid of pesticides. Always read labels and check food ingredients. Do not use aluminum and Teflon-coated cookware.

Limit your intake, or better yet, avoid non-organic fruits and vegetables (herbicides and pesticides), industrial dairy products and meats (hormones and antibiotics), and farmed fish (chemicals and heavy metals). Try eliminating certain foods from your diet (one food for two weeks) and see the results. It is also helpful to increase your fiber intake: at least 21 grams per day for women and 30 grams for men.

1. Eliminate processed foods from your diet

Eat as little processed and processed food as possible. So you save yourself hundreds of extra calories and unload the pancreas.

1. Eliminate toxic oils

Toxic oils include vegetable oils such as sunflower, cottonseed, peanut and rapeseed. Replace them with good oils: extra virgin olive, coconut, linseed, avocado oil. Flaxseed oil, for example, is a valuable source of omega-3, -6, -9 acids.

1. Drink green and herbal teas

Detox herbs such as dandelion, milk thistle, burdock, and red clover are available as teas or tablets. Teas from these herbs will help to quickly cleanse the body of toxins. In addition, ginger root and acai berries have cleansing properties.

1. Eat more raw fruits, greens and vegetables

Fruits, vegetables, and greens contain enzymes that aid digestion and enhance nutrient absorption. Get plenty of fiber from brown rice and organic fresh fruits and vegetables. Products that remove toxins from the body include: beets, radishes, artichokes, cabbage, broccoli, spirulina and chlorella algae, seaweed.

Beet. Beets, which we sometimes put in salads, are just a detox “bomb”. Include it in your diet more often. Beetroot improves digestion, helping to completely remove all toxins from the body. This vegetable contains dietary nitrates, which cleanse blood vessels and speed up oxygen metabolism.

Ginger. The health benefits of ginger have been known since ancient China, where it has been used for everything from treating burns to improving digestion. Chew on a piece of ginger or drink ginger tea to relax your digestive tract and cleanse your body of toxins. Or make ginger water by adding ginger root plastic to boiling water.

Lemon. Lemon juice with cayenne pepper and water is a popular recipe for removing toxins from the body. Lemon helps the intestines to get rid of toxins more efficiently, and the stomach to digest food, thanks to the content of acids similar to gastric juice.

Grapefruit. It is not for nothing that grapefruit gets into almost every list of “superfoods”: its juice, rich in microelements, removes toxins from the body for one or two times. Grapefruit makes the liver remove toxins faster and also burns fat.

Cabbage, all types- leafy, colored, Brussels sprouts, broccoli - contains unique substances, phytonutrients that accelerate the system of purification from toxins and toxins: liver, kidneys, intestines, skin, and to some extent - all other organs.

A pineapple. Not only is pineapple delicious and refreshing, it also contains the plant enzyme bromelain, which cleanses the intestines and helps the stomach. Bromelain also reduces inflammation, which helps with indigestion.

1. Take Vitamin C

This natural antioxidant helps the liver produce the substance glutathione, which removes toxins from the body.

1. Reduce or Eliminate White Sugar Intake

When cutting sugar, don't switch to substitutes that contain toxic artificial sweeteners, but opt ​​for natural options like stevia, honey, coconut sugar, date sugar, molasses, or maple syrup.

1. Reduce or Eliminate White Flour and Bread

White flour acts like glue on the body, overloading the digestive system. This leads to indigestion and hinders intestinal peristalsis.

Replace white flour with other types of flour: buckwheat, corn, wholemeal wheat, wild rice flour, quinoa, spelt. Swap white bread for whole grain bread.

1. Take probiotics.

You can also consume food with live cultures: sauerkraut, yogurt, kefir. Beneficial microorganisms kill harmful bacteria and yeast and restore the intestinal mucosa.

1. Eat more legumes and less meat, fish, and poultry.

Legumes are a great source of protein, and the fiber in them helps with bowel movements.

1. Get more restful sleep

Proper rest is crucial for the self-healing of the body and the proper functioning of many biological functions.

1. Physical activity

Increases the body's ability to eliminate toxins and improves overall health. Exercise is necessary for the successful removal of toxins from the body.

A good option is yoga or jumping on a rolling pin every day for an hour. Also try qigong, a martial arts-based exercise system that includes specific body cleansing exercises and other activities with specific health benefits.

1. Give up bad habits - smoking, excessive consumption of alcohol and drugs

Stay away from artificial stimulants like caffeine. These substances inevitably slow down the detoxification process.

1. Massage

This is not only a relaxing and regenerating procedure, but also a way to get rid of toxins and toxins much faster.

1. Relieve stress

Embrace the stress reliever that you enjoy the most: yoga, meditation, or any other form of relaxation. Stress leads to the release of hormones that harm the body, lead to heart disease and other serious diseases. By relieving stress, you will reduce the production of these hormones and increase your ability to cope with life's situations.
