One of the most significant nutritional philosophies of modern times is that keeping the level of toxins in the body to a minimum is quintessential to good health. Toxins can be absorbed from food, water, air or through the skin and in the modern world we are surrounded by a vast number of pollutants and chemical additives.

It’s not really known what the overall consequences are of living in a “low level toxic soup” – as the long term effects of small amounts of toxins are very difficult to ascertain scientifically. However, a huge number of people are firm in the belief – especially in the alternative health world – that many sicknesses commence through the gradual accumulation of toxins in the system – perhaps in a specific organ – and that the body needs to “detox” so as to be able to maintain its ability to self heal. The body wants to heal itself – and the theory is that if you remove harmful substances that are taxing the system, healing of all kinds can take place much more effectively.

It is generally thought that the best place to start is by maintaining a good level of hydration and the consumption of a diet including plenty of minimally-processed pure foods and highly nutritious natural ingredients such as fresh vegetables and fruit. It’s also invariably recommended by detox experts to avoid alcohol, smoking, refined sugars and other highly processed or rich foods.

In addition to being generally healthful, certain specific foods are thought to help assist with the removal of unwanted toxins from the body – providing for example nutritional support to the kidneys or liver.
