When it comes to both detoxification and nutrition:
You are what you don’t excrete.
Nutrition that cannot be absorbed is excreted, so you aren’t really “what you eat”. When it comes to exposure to toxins, the body cannot metabolize most of the poisons it is exposed to. Most of these toxins remain in the body for many years, stored in the fat cells that exist through the body. Our incremental exposure is quite small; however, by remaining in the body, even small incremental amounts result in significant amounts over time. As the ability of science to measure increasingly smaller amounts of toxins in the body improves, we are finding that it does not take very large amounts to degrade body functioning. What’s worse is that these many toxins combine in unpredictable ways to produce a combined effect worse than the sum of the individual effects.
