Accumulation of toxins
Gradual intoxication of the body: why it happens and how to prevent it
When we hear the word “intoxication”, we immediately think of acute poisoning with fever, vomiting and diarrhea. In these cases, the body reacts quickly to eliminate harmful substances.
However, there is another form of intoxication, less obvious but equally dangerous: the gradual accumulation of toxins. These substances, over time, contaminate the intestine, liver, kidneys, tissues, lymph and cells, compromising the correct functioning of the organism.
Why doesn’t the body eliminate them on its own?
Detoxification is a natural process, but modern lifestyle, unbalanced diet and pollution overload the detoxification systems, preventing proper elimination of toxins. This leads to chronic fatigue, slow metabolism, skin problems and a weakened immune system.
The main causes of toxin accumulation
1. Insufficient hydration
Water is essential for transporting nutrients and eliminating waste. If you don’t drink enough water, the lymph becomes thicker and instead of cleansing the body, it distributes toxins.
Solution: Drink the right amount of water every day.
2. Antioxidant deficiency
Antioxidants are the body’s natural defenders.
- They neutralize free radicals
- They promote the elimination of toxins
If your diet is low in antioxidants and you drink filtered or boiled water with positive oxidative potential, your body struggles to eliminate toxins. This causes water retention, exhaustion and fatigue.
Solution: Include antioxidant-rich foods (vegetables, berries, spices, vitamin C) in your diet and take quality supplements.
3. External and internal toxins
Toxins come both from the environment (air, water, food) and from within the body, due to the body’s own metabolic processes and from parasites, bacteria and fungi.
Solution: Regularly take anti-parasitic preventive measures and maintain a healthy intestinal flora.
4. Chemical additives in food
Preservatives, artificial flavors and GMOs are not properly assimilated by the body and contribute to the accumulation of toxins.
Solution: Choose fresh, natural foods, avoiding fast food, processed foods and carbonated drinks.
Antibiotics and other medicines overload the liver and kidneys, reducing their ability to eliminate toxins.
Solution: After pharmacology therapy, follow a detox program and support the liver with herbs and natural supplements.
6. Constipation and intestinal irregularity
Undigested food residues can accumulate in the intestine for years and ferment, producing toxins and creating an acidic environment favorable to the proliferation of parasites.
Solution: Carry out an intestinal cleanse 1-2 times a year, regulate bowel movements and increase fiber consumption.
