12 Signs You Need To Do A Detox
Where toxins come from:
- Environmental toxins: These toxins usually come from industrial places where there are cars, water and air pollution, radiation, pesticides, and herbicides; or in cleaning products, hair sprays, perfumes, and make-up that can be found at home.
- Lifestyle toxins: Lifestyle toxins usually come from chemicals that we put into our bodies like sugar, prescription drugs, processed foods, alcohol, caffeine, and tobacco.
-
Metabolic reactions: When our bodies start breaking down proteins, sugars, and fats, they naturally start producing toxic waste. When a diet does not contain enough nutrients, the toxins build up in the body.
-
Intestinal microbes: The gastrointestinal tract is filled with yeast and bacteria which help with the body’s digestion of food. When there is an excess growth of bacteria in the intestinal tract then toxins enter the bloodstream and results in various health conditions.
-
Emotional toxins: Stress, fear or traumatizing events can affect both the nervous and hormonal systems, which then affect your body’s ability to detox.
