Drainage Before Detox: Daily Habits That Keep Toxins Moving Out (Tier 3)
Your detox isn't broken—your drainage is. Sluggish bile, blocked lymph, and slow bowels cause toxins to recirculate, not release. This blog breaks down how to support your colon, liver, skin, kidneys, and lymph so your body can finally let that shit go, literally!

Drainage 101: Let’s Talk Flow, Not Just Funk
Cancer puts your body in constant cleanup mode. You’re already carrying a toxic load- cells are dying, toxins are rising, and your detox system is running full throttle. But if your drainage pathways are clogged, those toxins don’t leave, they just recirculate and build up.
Supporting your colon, liver, kidneys, and lymph isn’t “extra credit.” It’s the foundation. No protocol, supplement, or fast will work if you don’t open the exits first.
Let’s break it down. You might be dealing with:
- Lymph that’s more sluggish than your grandma’s dial-up
- Bile that’s thick and sticky like Elmer’s glue
- A colon that’s moving slower than airport security
Your body has six main drainage pathways: the colon, liver, kidneys, skin, lungs, and lymph. When any of these get backed up, toxins don’t just sit around politely, they get reabsorbed. That’s where all those so-called “detox symptoms” come from. (Spoiler alert: it’s not always Herxing (detox flu). Sometimes it’s just constipation in disguise.)
So what do we do about it?
