In my business marketing nutritional and detox products to
those interested in alternate ways to stay healthy, I see a
common pattern connected with many disease states. While we
are prohibited from making any claims with regard to any
particular disease, it is becoming increasingly obvious
that there are some basic causes of premature illness and
aging and that many of these are preventable.
You are probably aware that many are becoming dissatisfied
with the medical approach to health and healing and seeking
alternate sources. They scour the internet to find an
amazing array of cures and potions with all sorts of
unsubstantiated claims. Many of these come from people who
took a particular product, had a dramatic health
improvement and decided they had an obligation to tell
everyone their story. I am a little different.
I entered the world of supplementation as a business. My
background in natural health stems from colonic irrigations
that in a few days eliminated symptoms for my partner
Medical Science gave up on. In fact, like many people, she
was told that she had a mental problem and that she should
see a Psychiatrist! It opened up a whole new way of living.
Some 25 years later I am in perfect health, do combat
classes and play tennis flat out, and look forward to a
long and rewarding life with our 2 year old daughter. I am
just about to turn 56.
I have dealt with thousands of people and seen many
dramatic changes with a number of products. There is a
common scenario with just about everyone. A little
physiology will explain.
Since the 1920s there have been thousands of chemicals
introduced into our environment. Some of these get into the
water supply, air, and food chain. Even in minute amounts,
many of these are extremely toxic and when ingested can
affect our metabolism dramatically. If you don't believe
that a small amount of toxins can make a huge difference
consider this.
A small tick bite can kill a small child. A tiny amount of
some substances can kill an adult. Ecstasy can alter your
state of mind. Medications can have a dramatic effect on
how you feel. Mercury is unsafe in any amount. We are
exposed to this constantly and most of us don't even know
it.
So what happens in the body. All health begins at the
cellular level. Healthy cells make healthy organs which
make healthy bodies. Toxins are unnatural and attach
themselves to cell receptors, blocking normal healthy cell
function. The cells then get confused and our immune system
which is meant to regulate the cells, begins to break down.
When this reaches a certain level, we can no longer deal
with the toxic load and we get sick.
Having unhealthy cells also puts a huge drain on nutrients
in the body. We tend to use up nutrition to try to combat
the toxicity, hence no matter how much good stuff we take,
we may not have enough available for energy.
The secret is the toxic body burden - the amount of toxins
in our body. Each of us has a different tolerance level -
the point at which we notice this is going on. All of us
are affected - even if we don't know it. It is said that
when we die our bodies decompose slower due to 6 pounds of
preservatives and other toxins we accumulated over our
lifetime.
How does this work? Our first line of defense is the colon.
This organ is designed to collect toxic waste from the body
and eliminate it. If the colon becomes clogged due to
insufficient fiber, excessive use of medications, an acidic
body, or heavy metals and toxins killing off the good
bacteria that absorb the toxins, two things can happen.
First the colon can start to break down. This can be
irregular bowel movements, appendicitis (the appendix is
meant to regulate toxins in the bowel) or worse still
Irritable Bowel Syndrome, colon Cancer and other more
serious diseases. When the bowel becomes overloaded, the
next organs to break down are the liver and kidneys. These
are meant to process blood and other fluids to remove
excess toxins. So typically one has problems with the
colon. These spread to the liver, then kidneys, and then
other organs break down.
What do we do about it? Because many of the chemicals we
consume are unnatural, we are not designed to deal with
them, certainly in the quantities we are exposed to. Step 1
is to remove the toxins and reduce the toxic load. Step 2
is to replace missing nutrients to rebuild health. Without
step 1, step 2 has limited success. When someone is toxic,
adding additional toxic medication or laxatives doesn't
really make sense, does it.
No matter what else you do, I would suggest the following
logical detox process.
Drink plenty of water. The minimum for good health is 8-10
glasses a day. This will assist in diluting toxins in the
body and enable more to be eliminated.
Make sure you have a high fiber diet. A good measure is at
least one bowel movement daily. A good 3 month Bowel
Cleanse Program can make a huge difference here. Make sure
it contains herbs of parasite elimination and bowel
reconditioning - not just a quick cleanse.
Whether we like it or not, we are exposed to agricultural
chemicals and heavy metals. These are particularly
difficult to shift. The safest and most effective way I
know of is a new technology - liquid Zeolite. These
volcanic minerals capture toxins at the cellular level and
eliminate them. There are many types and we can direct you
to information that compares different products.
You choice of vitamin and mineral supplements is personal.
There are many good products out there. Choose something as
close to its natural state as possible, and remember the
more raw fruits and vegetables you consume, the better your
health will be.
