1. What's really in Body Detox?

You won't find any "slippery elm bark," "marshmallow roots," "dandelions," or "yellow dock" in Body Detox, as the formula does not rely on herbs for its detoxification power, but rather raw amino acids, antioxidants, enzymes, flora, vitamins, and minerals that are powerful detoxifiers for the body.

Body Detox's ingredients include a proprietary blend of nanometer-sized natural oligopolysaccharides, glycoproteins, phospholipids, colloidal sea minerals, micro-cluster structured water, microactivated enzymes, microactivated mercury free chlorella, lipoic acid, NAC, glutathione, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, fulvic acid, ferulic acid, and protease inhibitors with over 100 beneficial flora.

These ingredients perform three major functions to benefit your health: (1) They remove heavy metals and pesticides from your body, (2) They clean up and rejuvenate your intestinal tract to allow these toxins to exit, and (3) They strengthen your cells against the free radical damage toxins create.

To learn more about each ingredient specifically, see "How Body Detox Works."

2. How will Body Detox react with medications I'm taking? Is it safe for children?

Body Detox is not a drug and therefore should not have any adverse effects on your medications. Body Detox is a non-alcohol based dietary supplement. However, to be safe, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have kidney or liver disease, or are taking unusual medications, consult your physician before using. Body Detox is safe for children. Be sure to adhere to the reduced number of sprays in the suggested use.

3. What type of detox symptoms can I expect on Body Detox?

Toxins can flush out of your body through your bowels, urine, hair, skin, and breath. As these toxins come out, sometimes you may experience foul body odor, muscle soreness, an increase or decrease in energy, headaches, mucous discharge, metallic taste, or flu-like symptoms. These are normal detox reactions that will eventually disappear. However, if you start to feel too uncomfortable, you should back down the dosage to a more tolerable level and consult your physician.

4. If a chemical is dangerous, doesn't the government ban it?

Many people mistakenly believe that if a toxic chemical were dangerous, it would be banned by the U.S. government, so we don't have to worry about exposure.
Actually, although many toxins have been banned, scientists for decades were unaware of the full health effects of substances like DDT, PCBs, lead, fluoropolymers, etc.

Hundreds of previously legal chemicals, pesticides, metals, and other toxins still remain in the environment and our bodies. These substances don't degrade or breakdown; they persist for centuries and cycle back and forth through soil, water, and the atmosphere.

Before the health hazards were known, these chemicals were dumped into rivers, freely incinerated, amassed in landfills, incorporated into household products, sprayed on food, and used in so much abundance that many of them can be found in the blood or fatty tissues of nearly every American. If not directly consumed, from the soil or water they move up the food chain, arriving in the body despite anything we do to prevent it.

DDT, for example, was banned thirty years ago, but is still found (in lesser amounts) in 99 percent of people tested, including children, who receive it through their mother's breast milk, according to the CDC.

Additionally, many pesticides and other toxins used in developing countries circulate the globe.

5. How can I be sure Body Detox will work? How will it make me feel better?

Many users have had success with Body Detox. Here is one of the more interesting letters an individual wrote in:

Since I was a little girl, I've had a hearing aid in my right ear. Just a few months before my twentieth birthday, I had to get a hearing aid for my left ear too. After an examination at LifeWorks Wellness Center, a practitioner informed me that I had metal deposits near my ears. They prescribed to me their new product 'Body Detox.'

The second day of using Body Detox, I found that when eating I could taste the metal coming from the fork. I found that if I licked my lips I also tasted metal. It tasted like pennies (copper) or nickels actually, which would make sense considering those were my favorite 'sucking toys' as a child. If this was not proof enough of its effectiveness, the results continued.

Two weeks after continuing to use Body Detox I found that in the mornings or after a shower or right before bed, at times when my hearing aids would be out, my hearing had improved. I could hear the TV at a more normal level, and I could talk to my family. Most amazing to me, I could finally hear people on the phone with my right ear! I had never been able to do this before.

In fact, my hearing aids became so loud that I had to have the volume adjusted to a lower level. For simply spraying my mouth with a tasteless spray once a day, I found the results exceptional and expect even more amazing results.

6. How do I know whether I have toxins in me?

You can do costly lab tests measuring the toxins in your blood, feces, urine, and even hair. But if you're an average U.S. citizen, you probably have about 90 industrial chemicals inside your body.

The Environmental Working Group, the most thorough and extensive non-profit environmental watchdog group in the U.S., recently conducted a survey in which they found 91 chemicals, pesticides, and other toxins inside each of the bodies of nine randomly selected individuals. There were 167 different chemicals inside the group overall [1].

You can also take a brief questionnaire on Environmental Working Group's site to give you an estimate of the chemicals in your body.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention publishes an annual National Report on Human Exposure to Chemicals. There are over 115 different chemicals listed in their exposure report.

Chemical Body Burden is another good source of information about the number of industrial chemicals in the human body.

The toxins in our bodies include various forms of arsenic, dioxins, organochlorines, phthalates, fluoropolymers, organophosphates, furans, lead, mercury, cadmium, and other chemicals. You can read about the details of these toxins in the "Body Burden" section of our site.

You would certainly be an exception if you didn't have any of these chemicals in your body. Even if you never drank faucet water, never ate store-bought fruits or vegetables, never relaxed on your lawn or sat on the ground, never breathed air in a city (or indoors, where pollution is even greater), never smelled cigarette smoke, never used any personal care products, never tasted anything from a plastic container, and never drank breast milk from a mother who did any of these things either — you still wouldn't be an exception.

We are all inescapably surrounded by an environment saturated with toxins — toxins in our soil, water, and air. Many individuals, without realizing it, are suffering from toxic overload.

If you have one of these ten common symptoms, your body is probably straining with toxins and would benefit from an unburdening. Matching up your own symptoms with the above is the easiest way to tell if you're toxic.

7. If I have toxins in me, why aren't I dead yet?

In small amounts, many toxins have no noticeable effect. Public drinking water, for example, has standards regarding allowable parts per trillion for arsenic, PCBs, and other chemicals. Consume any one toxin in high amounts, however, and the effects can be severe.

A grain of sand may look like nothing on the floor, but if you keep adding grain after grain each day, the sand piles up. One day, at no particularly predictable point in time, you suddenly have a heap of sand. It can be the same in the body with toxins: add toxin after toxin after toxin, mixing and combining — albeit small amounts — in untested ways over a number of years, and one day you have a serious toxic buildup that burdens your body and weakens your health.

The effects of toxins can be mild and difficult to distinguish at first: a slight headache, poor sleep, aches in your muscles, a pain that continually recurs. Toxins get in the way of your body's proper functioning. Perhaps you attribute sleep irregularity to simply "having a lot on your mind." Then headaches, attributable to . . . caffeine? As these conditions come and go with more regularity, and have fewer causal connections, at some point you may conclude that toxins may be the real reason behind your body's poor functioning.

While these are some of the short-term effects of toxins, long-term toxic build up may develop into more serious health conditions.

8. What is the exact scientific data about toxin dangers and removal?

Information about toxins is readily available all over the Internet, particularly on the Environmental Working Group, EPA, and ASTDR websites. We have pulled relevant excerpts from organizations like these and posted them on the "Body Burden" section to give you an idea of the severity and abundance of these toxins in the human body.

Unquestionably you will find that toxin outputs have dramatically increased during the industrial developments and petrochemical advancements of the last 100 years, leading to increased amounts of dozens of different toxins in our body.

9. Is my shampoo toxic too? How do I know if something is toxic or not?

While foods and drugs are monitored by the FDA for safety, personal care products such as shampoo, deodorant, cleansers, and other non-food products are exempt from FDA approval. In short, as long as you don't eat it, companies usually don't have to secure safety approval to use it.

The ingredients in personal care products can range anywhere from simple oatmeal and salt to chemicals known to damage health in humans. A recent survey by the Environmental Working Group found that 89 percent of 10,500 ingredients used in personal care products weren't reviewed by any external panel or review board at all.

Half of the 7,500 products contained enhanced penetrators that increased the product's ability to be absorbed into your body. More alarming, about 50 products contained enhanced penetrators in combination with probable or known carcinogens [40]. So not only do you apply a carcinogen, you make sure it soaks into your body.

Repeated low-dose exposure compounded with multiple, varied chemicals applied over long periods of time may have a build-up effect that could be more dangerous than using one product alone. This seems to be an overriding concern of our developing toxic dystopia: while some substances are individually tested and reviewed for their safety, it's difficult to know how they will react when mixed with others.

Given the increasing storehouse of toxins our bodies and the new amounts we are taking in daily, it's impossible to know what one chemical will do to another. Perhaps one will react with another in a way more dangerous than if experienced alone. We hope that the next toxin that enters our body won't be "the one" that sets off a chain reaction of physical harm.

Clearly we need something to help us deal with this ongoing toxic assault. Body Detox is the best detoxification supplement available for it.
