One of the buzzwords that you may frequently come across these days is the term "detox". Commonly spoken by the lips of health conscious people, it is a short form of the world detoxification and quite simply means removing toxic elements from the body. It has become an increasingly important thing to do nowadays, what more with the existence of more and more pollution in the environment as well as many processed foods containing substances that actually do much harm to the body.

In actual fact, your body already has the mechanism for performing detoxification activities within itself by means of the kidney and liver. However, considering the amount of toxins that enter an average individual's body, it would even greatly improve the performance of your immune system if you had a regular detox routine for yourself as well.
