““One of the body's emergency measures for dealing with excess toxins is to store them in fat cells. Fat can be like an emergency garbage-collection area, absorbing toxins so that they can't affect other major organs. This is part of the healthy way the body deals naturally with toxins. The problem is, it can have the side effect of building "toxin warehouses" inside our own bodies! If we keep on adding fat and never burn it away, and if we keep on consuming high levels of toxins, the fat in our bodies just keeps accumulating toxins and holding on to them. Instead of being safely removed from the body, where they can't do us any harm, the toxins stay right inside us, waiting to get back into the bloodstream where they can do more damage to our systems. ””
