Do you feel tired, sluggish or run down? Is getting through each day a major task? Are you constantly annoyed by little things wrong with you? Feeling fit, healthy, terrific and full of energy and vitality is the ideal state for us all. But for how many of us is this a reality? Usually, we feel run down, tired or stressed, coping with the beginnings of a cold etc. While we put up with these symptoms as normal, we really shouldn't put up with anything less than 100% optimal health. Through ingestion of foreign, toxic substances from the way we live, toxins accumulate in our bodies over the years, slowing us down and stressing our internal systems. These are some of the sources of toxins we come into contact with everyday. We breathe in polluted air The use of growth hormones in animals Myriads of chemicals and additives in the foods we eat Toxins in our drinking water supply eg alumimium is used to take the cloudiness out of drinking water, and copper pipes are used to transport water. Chemicals in skin creams, suntan lotions, cosmetics, anti-perspirants, etc are absorbed into our bodies through the skin. Metals from body piercing Metals from teeth fillings- amalgam contains mercury Aerating agents in food, and antacids both contain aluminium Cooking ware - stainless steel, aluminium, teflon Using alumimium foil to cook food Widespread use of pesticides Smoking cigarettes Adrenalines present in animals slaughtered in abbattoirs Prescription drugs such as antibiotics Over the counter drugs Chemical fertilizers and anti-fungal agents Chemical and oil spills, pollution in our groundwater We also create our own toxins when putrefied food that is unable to be fully digested, accumulates in the digestive tract. And the list goes on. Toxins are stored in our bodies, in ever increasing amounts, because if we do not have a healthy diet and live a healthy lifestyle, our bodies do not have the capability to eliminate them naturally. They continue to accumulate, and what we take as a sign of getting older and slowing down is actually our toxin levels growing so we feel more and more lethargic. So while avoiding processed foods, drinking only pure water and buying organic produce, for example, can help reduce the level of toxins we ingest, we cannot avoid them altogether. The entire food chain is building up toxins. There also exists an amount of toxins in our bodies already accumulated over the years, slowing us down and contributing to our ailments. As technology in our world increases, so do the level of toxins.
