All of us are under assault from a constant waterfall of environmental toxins. When our natural systems for processing these toxins become overwhelmed, it leads to acute and chronic illness.
A Direct, Full-On Toxic Assault
- Food additives, colors, dyes, preservatives.
- Alteration and loss of nutritive value of our food supply: excessive use of antibiotics, and hormones on cattle and poultry, use of chemicals and heavy metal pollutants such as Arsenic, pesticides and chemical fertilizers.
- Gut dysbiosis due to lack of beneficial flora, yeast overgrowth, overuse of antibiotics, excessive simple carbs and high fructose corn syrup.
- Toxic heavy metal poured in our environment such as mercury, lead, arsenic, tin, aluminum.
- Ingested toxins, foods, smoking, excessive gluten, drugs and poor lifestyle choices such as lack of exercise, excessive weight gain.
These environmental insults can:
- Overburden the Liver, impairing its ability to help detoxify the body.
- Cause inflammation of the gut, the development of food sensitivities and an impaired ability to absorb nutrients and eliminate toxic waste.
- Create an overactive, heightened immune system response
- Bring on allergies and asthma
- Cause behavior and mood changes, weight gain, fatigue, joint pain.
- Increase autoimmune diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, thyroid disease
- Increase end-organ damage such as kidney disease and heart disease.
- Bring about poor modulation of normal hormone function, such as adrenal gland and thyroid function.
- Increase childhood illnesses such as asthma, eczema, allergies, autism and ADHD.
