Where do toxins come from?
External attack
A real toxin, what is it? A substance produced by a microorganism, a bacterium or a fungus (microscopic), which can be toxic and thus cause serious and / or pathological disorders of a life-threatening disease. The most deadly example is the bacterium called botulin, which is widespread in the soil and develops the most virulent toxins because it causes paralysis of the entire body. Many other bacteria that secrete toxins sometimes very nasty causing food poisoning or other diseases tetanus genre.
Furthermore, our produce many different metabolisms waste those of oxidation, urea and uric acid, lactic acid, etc. These are not, strictly speaking toxins.
Natural Detox
Besides some of the actual toxins are destroyed by gastric juices, we are equipped with an immune system that, when they come squatter our body develops antibodies, antitoxins and will immediately go to war against them. This battle takes place in the digestive tract, kidneys and liver, real factory cleaning our body.
The body's natural mechanisms to eliminate
Dirt is eliminated in urine and feces. As the remnants of different metabolisms. Our body is remarkably equipped to transfer the bulk of foreign molecules.
All this happens naturally when one is healthy and when it was a way of life relatively balanced. If one is suffering from a disease affecting the liver or kidneys or disrupting our metabolisms, these cleaning systems are so overwhelmed and sometimes ineffective. But in these circumstances it is not diving into a detox ridiculous but to heal.
Detox, disposal, purification
Where does this madness of detox? United States, it seems, where more than 15,000 centers would exempt care, where we can not count the detox products nor peoples who practice it. She won Europe. And while the genre nutrition claim "cleans the body" is now prohibited, these products are always a hit. Eliminate is the agenda: get rid of slag left by both food as environmental pollution, of those from stress, etc.
Exaggerated fear of toxins
It is therefore necessary to purify hoping to erase the small buttons on the buttocks, bags under the eyes, swollen stomach and gurgling, cellulite and rolls of fat, all of which are obviously due to monstrous pile of toxins . But also to erase the guilt of not eating, drinking and moving as it should. Lent Catholics was the precursor of the detox!

They became dark brown in the morning because the toxins miraculously through the whole body. In fact, it is the sweat that changes their color. Similarly, there are also foot baths in water where the electrodes generating a small current. Also exist very expensive devices (200-300 €) issuing frequencies, waves, supposed to neutralize toxins ions and regenerate the body.
Dangers of detox
Many potions more or less thick, greenish or marronnasses, diuretics and / or laxatives, also sold on the Net.
Side effects of detox treatments
Manufacturers often take pains to warn that during the course of detox, the need to urinate is frequent, the stools will be changed, bloating and flatulence will move along with minor skin symptoms, fatigue, dizziness, etc. All this is normal because the process of removing toxins is on the way! In other words, the cure detox makes you sick at first but it's for your own good because it detoxifies you.

One can opt for enemas, euphemistically called "colonic irrigation" or "colon hydrotherapy" it injects laxatives, herbs and then rinsed. The side effects (cramps, bloating, vomiting, hydroelectric imbalances) of this dangerous practice were reported by doctors at the University of Georgetown.
