Dr. Stevan Cordas answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Toxins: What is a toxin to you. The liver converts many toxic substances to fat or water soluble metabolites and you excrete them. Certain toxic metals can't be flushed but can be chelaed with edta or a similar compound. Hydrocarbons in excess can be depurated to some extent.
