hydrogen ions, creatinine, chemical toxins, medications, synthetic vitamins,
and minerals, etc.
These wastes (urine) travel down this pyramid (nephron tubules) into the
inner portion (or medulla), where they enter into common ducts called
papillary ducts, which empty into the kidney reservoirs (calyces). From here
the urine moves down through the ureter to the bladder.
As you can see, the kidneys are a part of your elimination system. They
form urine from blood plasma. They play a major role in the regulation of
your blood, and thus all bodily fluids. They help eliminate your metabolic
and toxic wastes.
Kidneys are very sensitive to acidosis from meats, teas, coffees,
chocolates and carbonated soda drinks. Most people consume these types of
“foods” (toxins) that, after a while, yield them discomfort and pain in the
mid- to lower back.
Ureters
Tubes from your kidneys to the bladder.
Bladder
Your bladder is mainly a holding, collecting tank, or sac, for urine on its way
out from the kidneys. The elimination of urine from the bladder is called
“micturition,” “voiding” or “urination.”
Urethra
The tube that leads from the bladder to the outside of your body.
INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM (SKIN)
Your skin is the largest organ of the body. It is also the largest eliminative
organ, eliminating as much bodily wastes each day as your kidneys, bowels
and lungs. The skin is obviously your body’s outer covering. It offers
protection from the outer environment and parasitic conditions.
Your skin has two major divisions, or separate layers. The first division
is the beginning, or first innermost, layer and is called the dermis. The
