Every registered dietician I've ever talked to about these "cleansing
regimens" to rid the intestines/colon/etc. of "toxins" (including enemas)
says they are 100% hogwash. Likewise, toxins do not accumulate in the
muscles. Some heavy metals are stored in the fat cells, but I do not
believe they can be released through a massage.
If you feed your child lots of broccoli, they will have green stools.
If you feed your child lots of beets, they will have pink/red stools.
If you feed your child lots of bananas, they will have stools with little
black threads in them that can look like tiny worms.
