Our society is currently plagued with much disease and illness.
Most babies in the United States are now born with an average of 280 chemicals in their umbilical cord. Of those, 180 are known carcinogens (cancer causing) and 200 are neurotoxic (poisonous to the brain), according to journalist Randall Fitzgerald in his book, The Hundred Year Lie, which shows the awful ramifications of our 100 years of believing that more chemicals will solve our problems. As we see the use of chemicals skyrocketing, we are also seeing a huge increase in degenerative diseases and serious health problems in infants and children. These chemicals that are being used in our environment daily and are poisoning us, it is impossible to deny at this point.
“Toxins are found everywhere you look.”
Toxins are found everywhere you look. Water, food, air, cosmetics, personal care products, cookware, pesticides, cleaning products, cars, smoke, perfume, dental products, rancid oils, laundry products, deodorant, electromagnetic waves from our devices, radiation, additives/ preservatives, mineral oils, sunscreen, workplaces, the list goes on and on. These are all everyday exposures but there are things you can do to limit your exposure.
According to Dr. Joseph Pizzorno the co-author of the Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine, toxins cause major damage to our bodies. Toxin can poison our enzymes so they don’t work properly, they displace structural minerals which results in weakening bones. Toxins damage the organs, they damage our DNA which increases the rate of aging and degeneration. Toxins modify gene expression, damage cell membranes so that they don’t respond properly. Toxins interfere with hormones and cause imbalances. Last but not least, toxins actually impair your ability for your body to detox and this is the worst problem of all.
How To Reduce Toxins In The Body Eliminate processed foods and change your diet to only eating organic whole foods. What is a whole food? If it comes from the ground or an animal it is a whole food. If it is in a box it is not a whole food. Whole foods have no preservatives. If you can’t pronounce the name of the ingredients, don’t eat it.
- Drink at least half your body weight a day in clean, filtered water. No water from the tap. If you are 200 lbs you should be drinking 100 ounces. Why the reason for drinking this much water? All of your elimination organs run on water, water is imperative to your body to eliminate toxins, if you don’t provide the body enough water it can’t keep you healthy.
- Exercise at least 30 minutes a day. You must move so that your lymphatic system can process and move the toxins out of your body. If you are not moving your lymph system can slow down, your lymph nodes can become swollen and infected which can lead to cancer. Movement is a must have if you want to stay healthy.
