Boosting your immune system: sounds so simple. But the truth is, your immune system is beyond complicated. There are many components to it, they are interlinked. Step 1 - detoxing

Because of the current pandemic, you may have been bombarded with a ton of stuff to buy, a lot of it expensive, playing on your fears.  There are also a lot of conspiracy theories using a modicum of truth sometimes and then playing on your fears again to make you believe their agenda.  

I want to put the power back into your hands.

The fact is, that you are the one needing to get the job done.  I am going to take you through a series of brief tips on how to improve what you have.  It’s fast and simple but not easy to do in a lot of cases.  And it’s inexpensive.

Today I’m going to talk about detoxing.  

What is really involved in detoxing?  Why do you need to detox?  Do you need to do anything special to detox?  Do you need to follow a special diet to detox?  

Let’s think about this: what does the detoxing in your body? Where is your immune system anyway? It’s actually in your whole body.  Everything.  Let’s start with the obvious.

Let’s look to your gut.  You eat things.  It has bacteria, dirt, chemicals, drugs, etc.  and your body has to pick and choose out of what you swallow, how to get your nutrition or hydration out of the messy glob in your intestines. Your gut is the first line of defense.  It has a powerful component to your immune system handling the pathogens and foreign (and useless) matter, including toxic chemicals.  

There are several things that happen afterwards:

• The leftover stuff enters your blood stream, when several organs are activated to improve your toxic levels:
• Let’s start with your liver, a major detoxing organ.  It filters out all medications, all chemicals, and sends out cholesterol to take care of inflammation caused by what you’ve eaten (sugar, allergens, poisons).  
• Your kidneys help filter your blood by continuing to remove metabolitic waste from your body. 
• In addition, your skin sweats out what it doesn’t need, like excess salts.  
• Your lymph system captures more chemicals and your spleen removes used up blood cells and other broken down proteins that can’t be used in the body.  
• Your large intestine removes the unused portion of food in the form of fiber and what the liver and gall bladder shuffle into it.  

And I’m Just getting started. I haven’t even talked about your sinuses, throat, lungs or other mucous membranes or the white blood cells in your blood stream.  That will be later.  

So let’s reiterate quickly, just so I’m clear.  It starts in the intestine, then into the bloodstream where the liver, lymph, spleen, skin and kidneys are clearing out toxins.  Then the large intestine is shuffling out the left overs from digestion as well as what the liver and gall bladder dumps there to remove from the body.

Isn’t the body a true miracle?

So, you can see why then that any one thing you do is not going to work, meaning that one vitamin, one mineral, one herb, or drug, doesn’t hold the answer to keeping you healthy.  It’s looking at the robustness and resilience that is going to make your health bulletproof.

If your body is healthy and functioning well (and you are taking care of it), you won’t need to do a special detox.  If you are doing what’s needed to maintain a healthy immune system, your body will keep you relatively clean.  There are some exceptions, like if you are living or working in a particularly toxic environment.  You may need some extra help.

Right now, we are going to talk about basics.
