Professional Help
While there are many things you can do yourself to aid your body in processing and removing toxic chemicals, you may also wish to get some professional help, in fact, if you really want to thoroughly detox your body, get professional help.
Professionals have products and techniques available that are not accessible to the general consumer. Some of these are more powerful and effective and thus require supervision.
But also, and most importantly, professionals have knowledge and experience and can guide you through the experience successfully.
If you want professional assistance handling the effects of toxic exposures, look for:
