Information on detoxing your body is all over the internet, and the truth is, most of it is unscientific and unhelpful. Cleansing your system is not an expensive process, and you don’t need to buy any special kits or tools to help aid your body’s natural systems. In fact, the NIH reports that many detox programs are not only falsely advertised, but many can even be dangerous.
That said, there are some ways you can assist your body in performing the detoxification process. Although our methods aren’t pushed by health influencers and don’t include trendy elixirs or starvation diets, we promise they are highly effective and backed by high-quality scientific sources.
With the help of BioCharger NG, let’s take a look at how the body detoxes itself and how you can simply and effectively aid in this natural process.
How does the body detox?
According to dozens upon dozens of medical articles, there is no magic potion that will detox your body. That’s because your body already has a self-cleaning detox system already in place!
The human body detoxifies itself through these channels: skin, lungs, liver, and kidneys. Your skin rids the body of toxins through sweating. The lungs filter and exhale toxins from the system. The liver’s main function is to be your body’s filter, working together with kidneys to flush toxins out.
All of these organs are working hard around the clock to keep your body free of toxins. The UChicago Medicine’s website has an incredible article resource written by a liver specialist that we highly recommend reading for a better understanding of the body’s detox process.
What is the lymph system?
Frequently, when the subject of detoxing comes up, the lymphatic system is invoked. It is an often misunderstood yet critical aspect of keeping your body healthy and free of toxins. While it’s certainly true that your lymph nodes assist with detox, without a true understanding of the lymphatic system, it’s easy to fall prey to misinformation.
The lymphatic system is a network of organs that creates and then moves a substance called lymph from tissues into the bloodstream. This process is part of your body’s immune system response that fights off unwanted bacteria. You have lymph nodes in your neck, groin, armpits, and abdomen.
Lymph nodes swell when the system is actively engaged in fighting off bacteria. You can read more on Medline Plus and also view a great diagram on Cancer.gov.
It’s easy to understand why people would want to take an active hand in assisting the body with this critical function, so it’s also easy to see how health influencers could take advantage of that desire in order to sell useless products. Let’s take a closer look at the real, impactful ways you can help your body detox.
Helping your body detox naturally
The process of body detoxification is involuntary, which means you don’t have to actively think and act in order for your body to complete the process. Breathing and pumping your heart works the same way. So although you can’t say to your body, “Liver, detox!”, there are some methods you can use to help your body detox naturally.
4 ways to detox your body naturally
Limit alcohol intake - If you don’t want toxins in your body, don’t ingest toxins into your body. You’ll distract your liver and kidneys from their primary objective.
Drink plenty of water and decrease salt - This will help the body flush toxins by increasing urination, as opposed to retaining water through dehydration, which traps toxins in the body.
Increase fiber - Prebiotic fiber helps your gut microbiome do its job and assists in breaking down and processing food.
Exercise - Increasing sweating, decreasing inflammation, improving respiratory functions, and increasing muscle mass are just a few of the many benefits of exercise.

Detoxing with BioCharger NG
We promised five methods for detoxing the body, but we only listed four above. The fifth protocol you can use to naturally assist your body’s detox process is to use a BioCharger.
At The Smart Fit Method in our longevity studios, we have clients complete their training sessions with a 15 minute protocol at our BioCharger. Our proprietary Smart Charge protocol helps improve the response to exercise stimulus, increases the rate of recovery, improves energy levels, and so much more.
Why do we detox at the BioCharger?
Because our bodies rely on natural energies to function, and if we spend all day inside and in front of a computer screen, our bodies are likely not operating optimally. A 15 minute reset at the BioCharger can serve to improve our health and realign our natural processes.
The BioCharger is a powerful tool to assist cells in their natural detoxification process by mimicking the effects of being outside in nature. Using PEMF energy, voltage, frequencies & harmonics, and atmospheric lights, the BioCharger solves the problem of modern society’s divorce from the natural Earth energies that power our internal processes.
Detoxing with The Smart Fit Method will improve your life
If you take away anything from this article, we want you to understand the following fact about detoxing.
Your body already knows how to detox itself. All you need to do is make sure you don’t get in your own way.
By decreasing the amount of toxins you take in through drinking alcohol or eating highly-processed, salty and sugary foods, you’ll already dramatically increase your body’s ability to detoxify. Add in consuming plenty of water, fiber, and a regular exercise routine that is optimized to improve your health, and you’ll be far better off than your friends buying $500 cleanse kits.
