Does vomit clean your body?
Vomiting is a natural reflex triggered by the ingestion of toxins. This reflex is an important one to ensure that recognized toxins are expelled from the body before they enter the bloodstream and circulate to peripheral organs where they may incur greater damage. In this sense, vomiting is an important mechanism not to "cleanse" the body, but to ensure it doesn't "get dirty". In addition to the natural vomiting reflex, we can initiate vomiting in other circumstances. Individuals with eating disorders, for example, may induce vomiting to stay thin. In this sense, vomiting is not at all protective. In fact, if vomiting is induced frequently for a sustained amount of time, it can severely damage the individual.
