Why cleanse and detoxify

There are many reasons to cleanse & detox your body. Every day our bodies absorb toxins from air pollution, water and chemicals that are used in unhealthy foods. These unhealthy foods can also include additives and preservatives, pesticides and herbicides from non-organic foods. The chemicals that give toxins to the body can also be found in plastic food containers. This allows the toxins to build up in our bodies and lead to poor health conditions and addictive habits i.e. sugar, alcohol, caffeine cravings etc.
You may consider undertaking a cleanse, if you answer ‘YES’ to more than 6 of the questions in our Toxicity Self-Test.
