“Toxic load” refers to the volume of toxic substances that have been

accumulated in the body at any given time and the overall burden it places
on the body systems and vital organs. Toxins come from countless sources,
many of which we are not even aware of. Environmental threats, chemicals,

and radiation are three of the most common categories. Your body has a
number of passageways through which it is directly exposed to toxins and

several mechanisms that it uses to deal with this exposure. The three most
common pathways of exposure are the lungs, the digestive tract, and the
skin. We are directly exposed to toxins through the air we breathe, the

food we eat, and anything that contacts our skin. While minimizing
exposure to potentially harmful chemicals on a daily basis is the most

effective method for limiting toxic load, you can be proactive about
reducing toxic build-up already present in the body. Focus on a clean,
whole food diet, detoxify with a regular dietary cleanse, and use all-natural

household, skin, and hair care products. Below is a collection of articles
that focus on the body’s natural detoxification process and ways you can
