(Ecns.cn)!It's getting so obvious that everyone has a thing or two that needs to be "fixed" in their body, if it's not the lumbar discomfort that is the curse of the long-term office worker, it's the stomach ravaged by stress and a willfully unhealthy diet.

Better take action before it's too late, health care experts suggest. Watch out for the following 5 ailments that are the body's cry for help with detoxification.

1) Constipation

Any period longer than three days without a regular bowel movement and you are automatically categorized as suffering from constipation. This indicates that your bowels are paralyzed and unable to expel solid bodily waste. The toxins not only stay inside the bowels, but also travel into your blood and reach every corner of the human body. When this happens, people start to see stomach problems, bad breath, dark patches on the face and many more symptoms of internal poisoning.

In short, turn to your doctor for detoxification advice when suffering from annoying constipation.

2) Bad breath

As already indicated, bad breath comes along when toxins accumulate inside our organs, though the reasons for accumulation are many. Sometimes it caused by constipation, as already mentioned, but most of the time, there are other triggers as well.

Mouth diseases, for example, invite bacteria inside the mouth and toxins as well, both of which underlie bad breath. Stomach ailments are also known to open doors to toxins, and halitosis is a result.

3) Chloasma(melasma)

A dark brown skin discoloration, usually occurring on the face, may be triggered by hormonal changes brought on by pregnancy, or during the process of taking the estrogen contained in oral contraceptives However, more and more women who are neither pregnant nor taking oral contraceptives are troubled with this condition today.

It may develop in association with menopause, hormonal imbalance and ovarian disorders. Whichever the source, it cries out for you to find a detox solution.

4) Itchy skin

Don't blame the dry air; it's not the only trigger of itchy skin. An irregular daily schedule, stress from work and dyshormonism may all lead to skin conditions that beg to be scratched, for they all disturb the normal detoxication process used by your body.

5) Obesity

Long term ingestion of high heat and high fat foods will breed toxins in human beings and, due to the obesity that results from such a diet, toxins are also prone to accumulate.
