Understanding Toxins

Are you a toxic waste site? Are body toxins making you sick?

Research wants you to know the following:

Optimum energy and radiant health are the products of internal cleansing. Each of us understands how important it is to be clean on the outside, but do not realize it’s even more important to be clean on the inside!

There is no doubt about it….we do not live in a pristine world. We live in an environment unlike any in history. In today’s world of processed foods and environmental pollution, toxic substances exist almost everywhere.

SOME SCIENTIFIC FACTS:
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), over 35% of the food tested in 1998 contained pesticide residues. 53 pesticides classified as “carcinogens” are presently registered for use on major crops, including apples, tomatoes, and potatoes. Additionally, more than 10,000 additives are added to our food supply. In fact, an average American eats about 142 lbs. of additives a year.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) more than 1,000,000 Americans drink water laced with pesticides. In 2000 alone, more than 4 billion pounds of chemicals were released into the ground, and over 260 million pounds of chemicals were discharged into surface waters, i.e. lakes and rivers, making fish unsafe to eat and water unsafe to swim in or drink.

How Serious Is The Threat?

The body is designed to eliminate toxins, but when an individual is exposed to chemical toxins, the body cannot detoxify or eliminate these pollutants. Toxins ingested in small doses may eventually add up to lethal amounts. Scientists from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) both indicate the chemicals in our air, food, and water cause between 60-80% of all cancers. Long-term exposure to pollution can result in genetic changes that affect growth, health and behavior, and contribute to our susceptibility to disease.

The US EPA did an adipose tissue survey of Americans, assessing the absorption of xenobiotic compounds, and the results were alarming; the frequency of Styrene, 1,4-Dichlorobenzene, Xylene, Ethylphenol TCDD (Dioxin) was 100% in each sample and 9 other compounds (Benzene, Toluene, DDE) showed 90-98% and PCB’s that had been banned many years ago, still was present in 83% of the tissue samples taken.

Common signs and symptoms of toxin build-up:

Headaches,
Joints Pains,

Mood Changes,
Sinus Congestion
Chronic Backaches,

From plastic wraps that swaddle our fruits, veggie and meats.
From plastic bottles and containers.
From chlorine, fluoride and other impurity in our water
From pesticides
From drugs
From radiation of cell phone, microwaves
From aviation, auto exhaust gas
From formaldehyde foam, mattresses and pillows
From air fresheners, dry cleanse fluids, dyes and glues
From paints, solvents, insecticides, greases, oils, lawn mower, gas cans, heated car engine, furnace, dryer, washing machine…….etc.
From STRESS

Where do Heavy Metals Come From?

From our foods such as shellfish and fish (clams, crabs, lobster, mussels, oysters…etc)
From aluminum such as baking powders, aluminum-lined juice boxes, cans, and other packaging, hot water heaters, cooking utensils, foils…etc
From mercury dental fillings
From water
From drugs or medication
From aviation, auto and commercial exhaust gas
From detergent, shampoo and soap
