DETOXIFICATION &
ANTI-AGING
The unhealthy accumulation of toxins in our environment and in our bodies is one of the main reasons we age prematurely. Once these
toxins enter our body, they are stored in our body fat and nerve tissue. The body stores what it cannot use to try to protect you from it with disastrous results. So, when you diet or exercise you are actually flooding
your body with herbicides, pesticides, hormones, etc. that was stored in your fat tissue. Unfortunately, there are numerous sources of these toxins, including lead in our tap water, airborne pollutants and off-gassing,
pesticides on our fruits and vegetables, antibiotics and growth hormones given to livestock to make them reproduce and grow larger, food preservatives, antibiotics, medications, cleaning agents, and cosmetics. All
have an impairing cumulative effect to our immune system as well as our reproductive capacity. Most water in this country is treated with chlorine and/or fluoride. This simply means that we are constantly undoing the
good we do by watching our diet and exercising regularly.
Detoxification must be carried out thoroughly - body, mind, spirit, home, work, family, and
friends. Heavy metals such as cadmium, lead and mercury are major culprits for damage to the kidneys, liver and brain. Yet, people knowingly and willingly allow these poisons to enter their bodies. Silver amalgam
fillings allow mercury to leak into the body, causing neurological changes. Tests have been conducted showing that people suffering from multiple sclerosis have substantial improvement once their fillings are removed.
Aluminum, a long-suspected contributor to Alzheimer's disease and senile dementia is introduced into our bodies daily through cookware, antacids and aluminum foil.
Frequent use of antibiotics lowers the immune system and promotes imbalances and pathogens throughout the intestinal tract. Most prescriptions are symptom alleviators rather than a
cure.
Alcohol in any amount destroys folic acid, B6 and B12, which aids in the aging of the heart and causes free radicals. |
