Detoxification is something our bodies do on a daily basis. It
is the process of eliminating toxins through the five
eliminatory channels:

Liver
Colon
Lungs
Kidneys
Lymph
Skin

In the world we live in today, with polluted water, air and
food, our bodies regularly get overloaded with substances that
do not support our body - toxins! Our bodies become overloaded
and are over-burdened with eliminating toxins. So many
undesirable substances stay our bodies.

Surrounding these substances with mucous and fat is one way our
system tries to shield us from these invading substances. a good
portion is stored in our fat deposits!

A detoxification program is a good way of assisting our body to
eliminate and neutralize these harmful toxins.

Let us look at the 5 organs for detoxification:

Liver

The liver is the largest internal organ in the body and plays a
crucial role in maintaining normal metabolism and detoxifying
the body.

Colon

Disease begins in the colon. The colon is responsible for both
carrying wastes out of the body and nourishing the body.
Nutrients are absorbed in the colon. So if your body is storing
toxins and excess mucous they will be stuck to the intestinal
walls of the colon. Making it very hard for your body to absorb
the required nutrients and eliminate the wastes traveling
through the colon.

Lungs

Your lungs are responsible for helping your body get the
required oxygen it needs by processing the air we breathe. The
lungs are one of the first organs to intake toxins. A cold is
usually a sign that your body is trying to rid itself of toxins
and waste matter that has built up to the point of overwhelming
your immune system.

Kidneys

The kidneys play an important role as a filter for the body as
well. Water is vital to helping the kidneys do their job. The
average person eliminates approximately 5 pints of water a day.
Drinking adequate water is essential.

Lymph

The lymphatic system carries a clear fluid which contains
excess proteins, wastes, and other elements. This fluid called
lymph surrounds the cells of our body to bring them nourishment
and carry wastes out of the body.

Unlike the blood, the lymph does not have the heart to pump it
through the body. It must rely on the movement of the body and
stimulation.

Skin

As mentioned earlier, the skin is the largest organ of the
body.
