How your body handles toxins

Your body is designed to cope with toxins, and neutalizes, transforms, or eliminates them. The liver is the main organ of detoxification, thansforming toxins into harmless agents so that they can then be eliminated. The kidneys filter out waste products from your blood into your urine. Your intestines propel potential toxins and indigestible material from your food into the bowel for excretion. The lungs expel gases such as carbon dioxide, which are produced in the cells and filter out poisonous gases you breath in. The skin elimanates toxins via sweat and sebum (skin oils) and by shedding dead skin cells. The lyphatics systems carries waste products that are too large to enter the bloodstream to the lymph nodes for processing. They are then returned to the liver via the bloodstream for detoxification.
