Your liver is responsible for over 600 functions. As the body’s detoxification system, the liver and kidneys are often over-taxed with the typical American lifestyle. From junk food to pollution, to pharmaceuticals of all kinds, your liver and kidneys become overloaded with toxins over time. This can result in various symptoms, such as fatigue, headaches, depression, poor digestion, allergies, bad breath, skin problems, and so much more.These organs can only function optimally when they are kept clean and provided with certain nutrients. In other words, the body’s filtration system can be compared to a water filter. When the filter is clogged with debris, it is unable to do the work of keeping fresh, clean water flowing through the filter. Similarly, when the liver and kidneys are clogged with toxins, they can’t protect the body from the onslaught of toxins.In today’s environment, virtually every individual--especially if they work around toxins, drink alcohol or have a history of kidney or liver problems--needs the added liver/kidney support.Toxins surround us every day in many forms, from the millions of pounds of toxins dumped into the water and air, to things like poor diet, high stress, and synthetic medications. When the liver and kidneys are not nutritionally supported and kept clean, your body stores toxins in your tissues.Signs of toxin buildup include: fatigue, headaches, irritability, insomnia, depression, poor digestion, bad breath, allergies, and skin problems. If allowed to go on for too long, it can lead to chronic illnesses like cancer, arthritis, and Alzheimer’s.The key to Optimal Liver • Kidney’s success is its ability to cleanse and fortify these organs at the same time without the side effects often associated when these organs are cleansed.Help Protect Your Body from storing ToxinsSupport your body’s detoxification system with nutrients proven to ensure normal clearance of toxins, as well as protect liver cells.
