Environmental toxins blanket the globe from heavy metals, pharmaceutical wastes, hydrocarbons, chemical fertilizers and radiation.
It is estimated that people consume 14 pounds of chemicals per year in the form of food additives such as artificial colorings, flavorings, emulsifiers, and preservatives. Literally millions of tons of pesticides are consumed every year through fruits and vegetables we eat. Is it any wonder that there is so much illness in our country?
We are the first generation that has been exposed to such an unprecedented number of chemicals on a daily basis. While the body was designed to detoxify and rid itself of foreign chemicals, it may not be equipped to handle the barrage of pollutants and toxic substances in today’s environment. In addition, refining of foods has left them deficient in nutrients that are essential to the detoxification process.
Individual reaction to toxic overload can vary greatly. The most common symptom associated with toxic overload is fatigue. Other symptoms include headache, muscle and joint pain, irritability, depression, mental confusion, gastrointestinal and/or cardiovascular irregularities, flu-like symptoms or allergic reactions including hives, stuffy or runny nose, sneezing and coughing.
Yes, because your gall bladder and spleen help detoxify the body, if you don’t have them, the liver has to do all the work. The spleen rids the body of old red blood cells and when we don’t have one, we become more susceptible to infections. The gall bladder is to aid digestion, especially digestion of fats. If we don’t have a gall bladder, the liver has to break down the fat itself, and sometimes cannot do a very good job of it.
If you don’t have a gall bladder or spleen, it is very wise to help the liver all you can by watching what you eat and drink, and cleansing it at least once or twice a year. I recommend this product. And of coarse, drink good clean water.
