The bone of contention:toxins

RSS Feeds   Text 
A toxin is a chemical or poison that is known to have harmful effects on the body. Toxins can come from food or water, from chemicals used to grow or prepare food, and even from the air that we breathe. Our bodies bring in toxins and then process those toxins through organs like the liver and kidneys and eliminate them in the form of sweat, urine, and faeces. Accumulation of these toxins has hazardous effects on the body and therefore is imperative to get rid of them.
