Cabbage Soup Detox Diet

We are everyday exposed to the harmful toxin and free radicals during our daily activities. The toxins are slowly accumulated in our body. What if we didn’t do anything to clean this toxin? Is our body strong enough to detox by itself? The answer might not be favourable… If we can do something to help our body, isn’t that good to ourselves?

The toxic products are not in the air but also in water, food as well as the medication that we have taken daily. A worrying thought… This is the reason why every single person should play their part to work out the detoxification in their lifestyle.
