What are toxins and where do they come from?

Overload of toxins can be responsible for causing a range of health problems. So what are the different toxins that we are now exposed to in the modern industrial world and what can we do to restrict our exposure?

What are the toxins?

Toxins are potentially harmful substances that pollute and irritate our bodies, putting a strain on the efficiency of our vital organs. There are many different kinds of toxins and they are nothing new, but we are now living in an increasingly toxic world, due to modern technology, intensive farming and food production methods, and a greater use of chemicals, all of which may affect our health and wellbeing.

Although to deal with these unwanted substances, a build up of toxins puts an extra strain on our natural detoxifying system, especially with increasing age. This can lead to troublesome symptoms and health conditions, particularly affecting the digestive and respiratory systems. Asthma, for example, is becoming increasingly common, and although environmental pollution is not necessarily the cause, it is certainly a contributing factor and can be responsible for making the symptoms worse, increasing evidence and scientific research no suggest that many health conditions and chronic diseases may be linked to toxins in our world and lifestyle.

Where do toxins come from?

Toxins bombard us every day. Not only are they produced naturally in the body, but they can enter the body in the air we breathe, from pollutants in the atmosphere and our environment, and in the food, drinks, drugs and medicines that we consume. Toxic chemical substances are also absorbed through the skin from cosmetics, toiletries and household products, including everyday materials such as paint, glue and electrical products. In fact, unless you live in a sterile bubble, it is impossible to avoid everyday exposure to toxins.
