Drainage Pathways 101: How to Support Detox, & Eliminate Toxins Naturally


Listen Later

Ever feel like you’re doing all the right things—eating clean, exercising, taking supplements—but still not seeing results? You might be missing a key step in your healing journey: supporting your drainage pathways.

In this episode, we break down the difference between drainage and detox, explain why your body might be struggling to eliminate toxins, and share how your lymphatic system, liver, and gut all play crucial roles in the process. Whether you're dealing with skin issues, bloating, brain fog, or fatigue, understanding drainage is essential.

You’ll learn what signs to look out for when your drainage pathways are backed up, why pooping and sweating are more important than you think, and how emotional regulation and nervous system support fit into the picture. Tune in for practical tips—from dry brushing to mineral water—that actually work.

 

What we talked about:

[11:22] – What are drainage pathways and why they matter

[14:00] – Detox vs. drainage: What’s the real difference?

[20:10] – Signs your drainage pathways are clogged

[25:30] – The drainage funnel: from cells to colon

[32:00] – Lymphatic health & its connection to skin, puffiness, and immunity

[40:00] – Why your liver is overwhelmed—and what to do about it

[50:10] – Practical drainage support tools: castor oil packs, dry brushing, minerals

[53:00] – Liver support herbs and lifestyle hacks

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Your body can’t detox properly if your drainage pathways (like bowels and lymph) are clogged.
  • Poor lymphatic flow can lead to puffiness, skin issues, and fatigue—simple habits like dry brushing help.
  • Pooping, sweating, and mineral support are foundational for long-term healing.
