Why do I need to Detoxify?
Detoxification, also known as purification can aid in removing toxins and fat loss. Everyday we are exposed to hundreds if not thousands of toxins per day. These include pesticides, chemicals, air pollution and synthetic hormones. Our bodies are designed to rid itself of these toxins unless they become overloaded, then additional help is needed. This is when our 21 day detox/purification is recommended.
Some of the symptoms of toxin burden are:
-
• STUFFY HEAD
-
• Fatigue or sleeping difficulty
-
• Digestion and bloating/gas
-
• Food cravings
-
• Weight gain
-
• Decrease mental thinking
-
• Low libido
-
• Increased/decreased blood sugar
-
• Increased blood pressure
Our detox program helps support the detoxification organs of the body the liver, kidneys and intestines. These organs are like the oil filter of you car, if they are clogged they have decreased filtering capabilities.
The Liver
The Liver
• filters toxins,
• aids in metabolizing food
• transforms many toxins into harmless by products
• stores and transforms sex hormones (if dysfunction leads to increased estrogen and weight gain)
• vital role in blood sugar
Kidneys
The Kidneys
• filters waste and excess fluid from the blood
• regulates the proper balance of minerals in the body
• if congested leads to possible increase in blood pressure
Small Intestines
• digests food so that nutrients can be absorbed
• Provides an barrier that blocks toxins from the rest of the body
When there is inflammation in the body due to possible food intolerance may lead to a mucous lining over the bowels which may lead to nutritional deficiencies.
Large and Small Intestines
Large Intestines
• absorbs water and electrolytes
• forms waste that is excreted from the body
• produces antibodies for gastrointestinal health
• contains bacterium that digest food
