Toxins are usually called any substances that adversely affect the body.
Intoxication - poisoning with toxins - can be both acute and chronic.
With an acute form, that is, a poisoning that makes you aware of yourself almost immediately, almost everyone came across. This is food, and alcohol poisoning, and poisoning with gas, paint, other volatile substances.
However, in today's world there are too many external factors that have a negative impact without causing an immediate reaction. Toxins accumulate in the body due to the fact that we breathe polluted air, drink polluted water, we eat not the most healthy food. Harmful substances settle in the liver, blood, lymph, spleen, other organs and tissues, and subsequently can cause various diseases. Therefore, even in the absence of symptoms it is desirable to regularly cleanse the body of toxins.
