Bloated? Belly fat? Extra weight? Drink these teas 3x a day and watch what happens to your waistline

The human body has its own detoxifying mechanisms and every day it detoxifies countless chemicals and substances that you are exposed to.  Pretty much everything you breathe, eat, drink, or put on the body has to go through the body`s detoxification organs.

Main Organs of Detoxification: 

1. Liver

The liver is the major detoxification organ. Hence, it`s no wonder that most detox recipes include herbs that promote liver health.

2. Lungs

Each time your inhale, you bring in a combination of various compounds and potential pollutants and toxins into the body.  The lungs help eliminate CO2 as waste.

3. Kidneys

The kidneys help cleanse the body and get rid of waste through the urine.

4. Bowels

Healthy bowels mean going to the bathroom on a regular basis and eliminating waste efficiently. When things don’t run that smoothly, you experience problems like constipation or diarrhea.

5. Skin

Did you know that the skin is our largest organ? Sweat is its means of detoxification and elimination of waste material.
