The Importance of a Whole Body Cleanse – Dealing with Toxins

Toxins add stress to the body and removing toxins from the body through a whole body cleanse can actually impact weigh loss as well as strengthen the immune system. What do toxins and fat have to do with each other? Are toxins really a problem?

Why We Must Deal with Toxins!

Consider this... up until the 20th century (that would be the last century, the 1900’s) all of our food was grown "organically". There were no synthetics added to the process. Same went for raising cattle and fowl, there were no antibiotics or hormones introduced into the herds or flocks until this past century. Only recently have we had to make the distinction between farming and "organic" farming. A very interest and extremely telling phenomena.

We have little enough control over many things in our lives - the economy and jobs, the weather and climate, pollution and urban sprawl, removing toxins from our food – but, just when you think it's OK to eat "organic" you come to find out that it's not really all that healthy, it's not really better, it's just a less of a bad thing. And, wait a minute, that's the good news. Toxic Air and Toxic Soil Our bodies are forced to deal with toxins of every variety - in our water, our air, our environment and, of course, in our food. There is literally nowhere on the face of the planet that has not been touched by pollution of some sort. And, no one is teaching the need to cleanse your body.

Concerns about mineral depletion in our soil were presented to the United States Senate as far back as the 1930's. Little has been done to address the situation. Our exhausted soil is constantly absorbing environmental toxins and cross-pollination from genetically modified crops; it just cannot be prevented. These chemicals have killed off the very bacteria necessary to turn inorganic rock minerals into usable organic nutrients that can be taken up by a plant.

How important is this? In terms of nutrition the mineral balance in our soil is so depleted, so polluted that it would take 12 apples today to provide the same nutrition as one apple from 1976, 51 bowls of spinach to one from the 70's. And, that's only good if you body has enough essential trace minerals in it to support nutritional absorption. But, the toxins get in.

It's the same for the water we drink. Most of us are severely dehydrated. Our cells can't absorb the water without certain minerals and salt. If your cells are locked and unable to take in the fluid the body simple eliminates it. Since we are mostly water, 65 to 75%, dehydration is a major contributor to diseases.

Ever hear of a pill that causes health? Me neither!

Still thinking organic? According to a Kaiser Family Foundation Report, September 2008, Prescription Drug Trends, from 1997 to 2007, the number of prescriptions purchased increased 72%, from 2.2 billion to 3.8 billion, compared to a US population growth of 11%. Figure each prescription averaged 750 tablets over time is almost 3 TRILLION pills. Yes, 3 trillion! Where do they all go? Many pass right through our bodies directly into the water system. Filtration plants must put up filter screens to catch undigested pills, toxins. Toxins Are Everywhere

And on and on it goes. Jet fuel, carbon dioxide, industrial waste, chemicals, chemicals, chemicals. I haven't touched on what's happening to our children, the contamination in newborns, the effect of hormone-mimicking pollutants and how all of these abnormalities have changed our rate of metabolism.

Oh, are you familiar with the latest terminology - Obesogens ? An obesogen is a chemical compound, foreign to the body that can disrupt normal development or homeostasis, usually concerning metabolism and use of lipids, or fat, inducing obesity. There's one that your mama never heard. (Homeostasis simple stated is the tendency of a physiological system of higher animals to maintain internal stability.)

Beginning to get the picture? Have I upset you yet? Our bodies have become a storehouse of 21st Century toxins and our bodies were not designed to dispense with so much toxic material. But, it is a miraculous machine, our bodies. The way it handles the pollutants is ever so uncomplicated. It simple encases the toxins safely in fat and stores them "harmlessly" away. Or is it so harmless? Look around.

Currently 2/3 of the population of the United States is overweight and it is predicted that by the year 2040 100% will be overweight. In a land of abundance and opportunity lives are lived on empty, empty of nutrition. We are literally rusting from the inside out.

How long can you continue to ignore what toxin are doing to your precious health? Fortunately, each of us can control what we eat. Fortunately, a full body cleanse is a ready solution to get the toxins out of our bodies so they can begin to function as intended. Given the right nutrition, the corrective simple building block, the miracle that is our body will correct and heal itself through natural detoxification.

Taking in the proper nutrition gives your body the chance to start the healing process naturally. By doing a whole body cleanse, a whole system nutritional cleansing process, rather cleansing your liver cleanse or cleansing your colon, your body will begin to slough off the toxins, release the fat and function just like it was supposed to function - healthily.

We can't do much in the short term about detoxing the planet, but we can certainly create a safe space for and within our personal space by cleansing our bodies.
