What is a Toxin? How do we remove them from the body?

A toxin is something that does not belong in the body. There are mild toxins and very serious toxins such as heavy metals. Toxins are what disease lives on; therefore if you are sick with any disease you know that you are toxic. And if you wish to be healthy again, you must rid your body of those toxins. It is important to check for the presence of heavy metals because they are the main cause of excessive free radical activity, which can cause damage to the healthy state of the body including depleting the body's immune system. Heavy metals are replete throughout our environment due to 300 years of industrialization. The U.S. pumps 40 million tons of mercury into the atmosphere every year through coal-burning power plants. Heavy metals are often found in people with cancer, fibromyalgia and multiple sclerosis.
