What Are Toxins?

Reeferaddict took a sauna to rid his body of toxins, infommercials constantly sell us stuff that will rid our bodies of toxins, exercising sweats out our toxins apparently.
What exactly are these toxins? Does anybody have a picture of them or maybe an article that says what they are?

i was going to be silly and make a joke, but i changed my mind lol.
toxins are anything that does not belong in your body. many things are toxins. tar, chemicals, heavy metals, drug residues etc.
toxins are mainly stored in fat cells, however some of them settle into other tissues such as muscle, organ and brain tissue. those kinds of toxins can cause much worse damage and quicker than toxins stored in fat cells.
you need to flush them regularly or you run risk of any one or more of various diseases and disorders. i think the biggest outcome of long term toxin storage and exposure is cancer.
usually eating a healthy diet(not semi healthy, completely healthy.) is all you need to do to flush them. eat whole foods, do not eat sugar, exercise, drink lots of water, etc.

"Flushing toxins" is very vague and even if you ask, no one can tell you exactly what these toxins are, where they are stored, what they look like, or where they go. Its bullshit. Just drink lots of water and that's all the flushing your body really needs.

actually scientists have located where various toxins are stored.
and just drinking water isnt going to do the trick if you are in an overly toxic lifestyle. if you smoke cigarettes and eat lots of processed foods, youre going to have alot more toxins than someone like me. if you live in a large city like new york, youre going to have more toxins than someone in sheboygan wisconsin.
its not that simple adrug. and there are various different things that can help your body purge toxins. apple cider vinegar purges quite a bit of garbage from your cells, including THC and others from your fat cells. bentonite purges metals and even bacteria from your body. fiber purges toxins from your digestive tract and colon. and etc.
water will not purge metals and some chemical compounds.

Naturally Sweetened Prunes, Spinach (raw too do some intestinal and colon scraping - it often comes out just as it went in and brings extra crap with it, its an old chimpanzee technique - And then there is cooked which is just good for you ), Soda Water (plain dry), and Sugar Free Cranberry Juice! My fav detox before a blood test.

fuck me I must be full of toxins....But I agree with adrug.
-------------------- "If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution - then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise." - Aldous Huxley GIVE ME OPIATES OR GIVE ME DEATH
