Bentonite Herbal Detox Capsules have a natural defense. Our bodies are equipped with a detoxification system to keep us healthy. The skin, kidneys, and lungs all play a part, but the main organ of detoxification in the body is the liver. In fact, up to 25 percent of our blood is located in the liver at any given time, where it is being filtered and cleaned. The liver uses a two-phase detoxification process. During Phase I, some chemicals are eliminated, while others are converted to intermediate forms. During Phase II, these intermediate forms are made water-soluble and then eliminated.
Men and women both produce estrogen, and in both genders, too much or too little can create problems. Many environmental toxins, such as BPA, are foreign estrogens that can occupy human estrogen receptor sites disrupting hormonal balance. Plus, with age, the body may start to metabolize estrogen differently, producing less of the desirable type of estrogen (2-hydroxy or 2-HE) and more of the undesirable type (16-hydroxy or 16-HE).
Bentonite + Herbal Detox supports hormonal balance in both genders. DIM blocks the conversion of testosterone into estrogen, and both DIM and broccoli sprouts increase levels of 2-HE and decrease levels of 16-HE. Research shows that women with a healthy ratio of 2-HE to16-HE are more ly to enjoy breast health, while men with a healthy ratio are more ly to enjoy prostate health.
