/toɡsinas/

In some Latin American countries, the term tóxico has become so popular as a slang term for jealousy that it is frequently used as a joke in memes and social media, far outweighing its medical use.
When talking about removing toxinas from the body, Spanish speakers often use the verb depurar, which literally means 'to purify' or 'to refine', rather than just 'to detox'.
While toxinas is a direct cognate, Spanish speakers often use the word veneno to describe toxins in a non-scientific, everyday way, such as when talking about a poisonous snake.
