The way we eat has a great influence on our well-being and appearance. If we expose the body to a constant struggle with unhealthy food, i.e. we eat fatty, sweet and highly processed products, with a high content of white flour and flavor enhancers, this causes the accumulation of a large amount of toxins in the body. The body can handle a small amount of them, but with increased consumption of unhealthy products, some organs may simply not keep up with cleansing.
