Detox Works Wonders!

Myth or Science?

- ASHMITA BOOPATHY MOTURI

You cannot detox your body...its a myth! This is one of the most entertaining lines I have repeatedly come across, unfortunately endorsed by several professionals. They then go on to discuss how the body is designed to detox itself...and as they place the cherry on top...they sign off stating that the body can only be treated if there is a disease state.

Let us begin to break it down...and see if there is any merit to these claims.

As far as natural detox goes...you must be pretty familiar with the process of peeing and pooping and sweating...you are still able to achieve all this despite the abuse you put your body through. This is possible because of a commendable innate intelligence that governs your body and acts through your Colon, Liver, Kidneys and Skin. Yet, time and again, I do have patients walking into my detox center troubled by acute constipation, fatty liver, kidney stones, IBS, psoriasis, eczema, migraines, bloating, acidity and the list goes on. Would you say, their bodies are cursed with less innate intelligence than the average others who arent plagued with these challenges?

Patients bring their blood reports and scan reports, with some of them indicating fatty liver and have been advised, "you have fatty liver... but that is fine...everybody does...its normal." It almost cost me my poker face to not smirk...
