Your Body Is Already Detoxing

Your body has a world-class detoxification system that runs 24 hours a day. Your liver processes and neutralizes toxins through a two-phase enzymatic system. Your kidneys filter about 200 liters of blood daily, removing waste products.

When detox companies say they will "flush toxins," they rarely specify which toxins. If your liver and kidneys are functioning normally, your body already handles routine waste removal without expensive juice cleanses. If you have known liver or kidney disease, that is a medical issue for clinicians, not a smoothie plan.
