Why should I detox?

This is one of the questions I am asked all the time. Imagine your body is like your car. Would you run your car year after year without cleaning the inside? What would happen if you kept driving it without a service, it would break down right? Well your body is just the same. We need to take time to rest our digestive systems and allow our bodies the opportunity to do what it does best and that is to heal itself.You shower every day but when was the last time you cleaned the inside of your body?In today's world there a thousands of pollutants in our environment that were never there before. These toxins build up over time and if they are not removed will lead in time to things like arthritis, gout, cancer and a host of other preventable disease states.
