How to Detox Naturally

  • In my May 2026 CBS Chicago interview, I explained that your body already contains detox systems that work continuously through your liver, skin, kidneys, and digestive tract, but processed foods, seed oils, and dehydration overload those pathways and slow recovery
  • Regular sun exposure and increased outdoor activity naturally support detoxification by improving sweating, circulation, hydration, and cellular energy production
  • Seed oils stored inside your tissues contribute to fatty liver disease, impaired detox capacity, and increased sensitivity to midday sunlight, which helps explain why many people burn and photoage more easily
  • Sweating through sunlight exposure, walking, or sauna use helps your body eliminate waste products naturally while also supporting circulation, hydration balance, and temperature regulation
  • Simple daily habits like eliminating processed foods, hydrating consistently, spending time outdoors, and building regular sweat sessions strengthen your detox systems far more effectively than restrictive cleanses or expensive detox products
