But keep in mind, if you violate the laws of proper eating and do not use herbs, you'll have no choice but to go to the doctor. While I definitely prescribe to herbs I think the stat is a bit misleading, because as tough of a pill it is to swallow, they also probably save much more lives and with all due respect, much of the loss could be malpractice.Again, this is not to defend the AMA, but just to put things in perspective.

Yes, they call it iatrogenesis = disease or injury caused by treatment. I believe the stat includes only that which is begrudged. There's plenty of etiological denial too. That word means disease genesis, what's its primary cause. & they cook stats like they cook their books. Oh, for an Enron in the "healthcare" industry!

Organs, tissues, fat (adipose tissue), skin, hair, and more can hold toxins, or have toxic build up if you will. Toxin is not a meaningless term, more it is often used as a general term or a blanket term for harmful or potentially harmful substances. Example: Mercury is toxic to the body, it can accumulate in tissues, and it is harmful. Yes that is a big obvious one, but the idea to keep in mind is that there are many things that your body can't filter.

I just named you all the tools the body uses to cleans itself,so what "tools" is it lacking?You're just talking back the made up stuff these people say.What "toxins" are you talking about;where do they "build up";how do they "build up",etc? Toxins is just a general meaningless term.For instance,you consume too much alcohol and you get drink cause your liver cant keep up;but it still gets processed-it doesn't "build up" and sit there forever.There is no such thing as "toxic build up".

Im sorry,but you just don't understand how the body works which is common and how people get scammed by "detox" treatments.The body cleans itself of anything harmful though things like the entire immune system,lymphatic system,kidneys and liver.They are just plain and simple making things up as shown by this little talk about the colon and they are not doctors.Our bodies do the job,detox does nothing,and some detox "treatments"-like colon cleansing-are actually harmful.

Constipation comes in many forms and what you are talking about has to do with hard feces which is difficult and slow to pass,and in extreme cases if soft fecal matter tries to pass the hard matter it can become compacted and clog.Nothing to do with "toxins" or "build up" in the colon.The colon has bacteria on the walls that keep it clean.Your colon is not like house plumbing which can clog over time due to build up-fecal matter does NOT build up and collect over time and clog the colon.

Uhhh...no. Please get some medical education.Why doesnt everything you eat come out? Cause its broken down and absorbed in the digestive process.Duh!There is no such thin as "detoxing" the body-its pure nonsense. The colon does not clog,material does not collect in it.Any doctor who actually works with the colon (like a real doctor,not some "natural" doctor) knows and will tell you that the colon walls are very clean and free of any "build up". This lady is talking without saying anything.
