Re: Toxins

certain herbs act on the different organs acossiated with detoxification. they are as follows (this list is by no means exhaustive, i have merely chosen one herb that acts on each organ):

Milk Thistle- liver
Dandelion- kidneys and liver
burdock- blood
aloe vera- colon
myrr- lungs
echinacea- lymphatic system

this combination will ensure all detoxying organs are stimulated. also, drink lots of water and adopt a good basic diet focusing on whole grains, lean proteins, essential fatty acids and lots of raw fruit and vegetables. this helps flush toxins through the system from the kidneys. excercise also detoxes as toxins are lost through the sweat and it also moves the lymphatic system. this will detox you over time. it may not be as sudden and quick acting as fasting but it is will keep you largely toxin free. much better to take the long road than fast and then retox, only to do it all over again. lifestyle cahnges are better than occasinal desperate attempts at good health, only to slip back into old ways. (by the way i'm not saying you are in this category, i'm just making a general comment about people who abuse their bodies, detox and abuse some more).
