What are the most effective ways to clean out all toxins from the body.

Be nice to your liver!

kristikitter

Have a working liver

Have a working liver, have working kidneys.( well, at least one working kidney will do)
A working gastro-intestinal system helps too.

If you dont have above, seek medical care.

Those other two are correct! Detoxes and flushes are bogus science unfortunately.

That would depend on the toxin. Once you know what toxin you need to clean, and if you need to clean it in the first place (you would most likely know if you were over intoxicated), the doctor would take the appropriate steps and administer substances known to specifically counteract the effect of said toxin (example: activated charcoal for overdose on certain substances).

What you read about all over the internet about toxins and stuff is just media woo. You most likely don't need to detoxify anything and the body handles that for you. Anything sold or touted to clean "toxins" is either a useless placebo (like lemon water), or a laxative/diuretic to produce certain side effects that make it seem as if it's doing something (make you go to the bathroom more often) to make you believe that it's doing something. In reality, and paradoxically, many of these detoxes can potentially damage your liver, your real detox machine.

I would stop reading about detoxes and trust my body to do it for me. If I were really in need of removing a toxin from my body, I would seek medical attention.

Go to the toilet....

What's interesting is that even in true cases of toxins, in many cases hospitals trust the body to do the work and care is mostly supportive and aimed at managing symptoms like keeping blood pressure and glucose stable.

Never going to happen. We always have some toxins. As a nutritionist said--spread the risk, by eating a varied diet. Your body should be able to handle this.

Your liver and kidneys do an efficient job of clearing out toxins unless they are damaged in some way- in which case supplements etc should be avoided and anyway you'd know about it because you would feel very ill.

Hospital. If you've ingested toxins, you need medical attention.

Most effective way is to stop reading woo sites that tell you there are toxins in your body which need to be "cleansed"/"detoxed".

Drinking water and letting your liver and kidneys do their work. (Unless you have been bitten by a snake or spider then anti-venoms are in order, but I don't think that's the kind of toxins you mean.)

Leeches.

Or working kidney and liver. Either way...

If you can name the toxin I can tell you how

The human body produces no toxins. Something you eat can become "toxic" if over consumed, however if it came to that, then you need to go to a hospital or poison center immediately.
Drinking some concoction or eating certain foods DOES NOT remove poison from your body.
In other words, don't by into the hype of "DETOXING".

Are you a drug addict or alcoholic? I'd really suggest detoxing at a professional medical setting as it can be extremely dangerous to do it on your own if you're at that level.

If you injected some poisons I'd also suggest going to the professionals and it seems that would be a more urgent situation that sitting on the message boards.

If you just want to clean out some extra food or whatever have an extra cup of coffee and poop.

What toxins are you referring to?

Eat a bag of sugar free Haribo gummy bears. Guaranteed to do the trick! (read the reviews on Amazon.com)

I find hot coffee in the morning flushes all the toxins...
