How to get rid of drug residue???

    Does anyone know how to get rid of the drug residue (residuals) on the brain after detox??? I read about it and was told by doctors the only detos that can get rid of it is the ultra rapid detox....the one where they put you under.  I know It can stay on the brain and becom etrapped in you fatty tissues of the body.  The drug residues can remain in your body for years. tissues in our bodies that are high in fats are turned over very slowly. When they are turned over, the stored drug residues are released into the bloodstream and reactivate the same brain centres just as if the person acctually took the drug. The former addict now exeriences a drug re-stimulaton (or "flashback") and drug cravings. This is commin in the months after an addict quits and can continue to occur fro years, even decades!  HELLO!!!
HOW DO WE GET RID OF THIS???? I googled aand googled and can't find a solution. Please help!
Thanks!

After reading your post may explain why at times for about 20 minutes I feel high. It's nice to feel that way without taking anything. But I too want to rid my body of toxins.
