As people become more aware of the toxins woven into their daily lives, they also find themselves looking for the best ways to detox correctly. Unfortunately, doing a detox is not as easy as going out and picking up a kit or a bag full of lemons and some cayenne. You need to carefully decide what kind of detox you are doing, the areas you are looking to target, and prepare yourself for the inevitable symptoms that go with it. Not only that, but you need to take care of your main detoxification pathways, so the process will go much smoother. So how do you promote healthy detoxification pathways and minimize the symptoms cause by detoxification? Primarily, by supporting and invigorating all the key pathways that your body uses to rid itself of toxins, namely the liver, kidneys, colon, skin, lymphatics, and lungs.
