Food supplements that support detoxification

Detoxification, or detox, is a process that helps the body to eliminate toxins and other harmful substances that can accumulate over time. Although the body naturally removes toxins through organs such as the liver, kidneys and skin, a modern lifestyle, exposure to pollution, poor diet and stress can lead to an overload of these systems. In such cases, dietary supplements can help support the body's natural detoxification processes.

Examples of important dietary supplements for detoxification

1. Zeolite and Bentonite
Zeolite and bentonite are natural clay minerals known for their ability to bind to heavy metals, toxins and other harmful substances in the body, and then remove them through the digestive system. Zeobent MED combines these minerals to provide a powerful detoxification effect, especially for people exposed to high environmental pollution.

2. Glutathione
Glutathione is the body's most effective antioxidant and plays a central role in detoxification, especially in the liver. It helps neutralize free radicals and supports the removal of heavy metals and other toxins. Quicksilver Scientific Liposomal Glutathione offers a highly bioavailable form that can effectively support the body's natural detoxification processes.

3. Modified citrus pectin
Modified citrus pectin is a type of fiber that binds to heavy metals and other toxins in the body, helping to remove them. Research shows that this supplement can reduce levels of toxic metals such as lead and mercury in the body, as well as help reduce inflammation and improve the immune response.

4. Activated charcoal
Activated charcoal is known for its ability to bind to toxins and chemicals in the gut, helping to remove them from the body. It is especially useful after exposure to toxic substances or with stomach problems. Zeobent MED offers a combination of activated charcoal and bentonite clay for maximum detoxification effect.

5. Milk thistle (Silybum marianum)
Milk thistle is an herb that has traditionally been used to support liver health. The active component, silymarin, protects liver cells from damage and promotes the regeneration of liver tissue, which is important for the body's ability to detoxify effectively.

Several dietary supplements and natural substances that can support detoxification

These examples are only part of the wide range of vitamins, minerals and natural substances that can support the body's detoxification processes. Other important nutrients that can contribute to detoxification include:

• Vitamin C and E: Powerful antioxidants that protect cells from oxidative stress and support detoxification.

• N-acetylcysteine (NAC): A precursor to glutathione that increases the body's production of this important antioxidant.

• Chlorella and Spirulina: Superfood high in chlorophyll, which can help bind heavy metals and improve detoxification.

• Coriander and Parsley: Herbs known to bind heavy metals and support their elimination from the body.

• Broccoli extract: Contains sulforaphane, a compound that activates the body's own detoxification enzymes.

• Curcumin: The active ingredient in turmeric, which has strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that support the liver's detoxification function.
