Put down the cayenne-lemon water and step away from the herbal tea. Cleanses and detox products like these don’t remove toxins, says Dr. Jen Gunter, and some of them may even be hurting your health. Learn how your body rids itself of harmful substances and what you can do to keep this system running smoothly.
Think you know how your body works? Think again! Dr. Jen Gunter is here to shake up everything you thought you knew — from how much water you need to drink to how often you need to poop and everything in between. This TED original series will tell you the truth about what’s *really* going on inside you.

0:59 man she just cured my quest of this cleansing my body from all toxin bullsh”£$ ngl she is goated 👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍
I want to know what is happening though? I’ve changed my diet from a very unhealthy sugar, carb, meat combo to a. Almost vegan diet. And I’m only early into it but already I am feeling better and noticing some things. Like one, I have this horrible stink. I’m wondering if it’s my body detoxing. So I have a lot of health problems, liver disease (Nash) I have one kidney, so that’s why I decided to cut out the meat because I need low protein to keep it functioning ok. I have high cholesterol that would be from all the fatty meats and carbs and sugars I used to eat. High blood pressure, from the one kidney. Diabetes, insulin resistant, from years of sugar abuse I assume. I’m really taking the reins of my health and I’m loving it.
Get a vaccine!?! Straight GTFOH
Approx 80% of all non-injury deaths are caused directly as a result of diet. Not even 1 in 1000 people prove to grasp that fact.
Imagine getting paid $5,000 for eating a 5-lb bucket of Home Depot’s best-selling wallpaper paste. Would you do it?
In fact, you eat that 5-lb bucket of paste, and you don’t get paid… every few months of your life.
There are only two ingredients needed for great wallpaper paste: Flour and water. LOLOLOL.
