Nutrolution presenting education last night on a topic that many people are confused over: detox and cleansing. We updated the old saying, "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" and turned it into "a cleanse shake a day keeps the doctor away," whereas an apple is a dated method of staying healthy, and a cleanse shake is a more updated antitode to disease. Toxicity is one of the leading causes of both disease and general poor health conditions. We see toxicity manifesting everyday in the form of weight gain, brain issues, digestive problems, low energy, low immune function, and more.
Our foods are polluted starting from growth methods which incorporate pesticides through processing and packing in plastics. And pollution often continues through the cooking process in many cases, when you consider how most people and restaurants still cook with vegetable oils, which are highly chemical-laden and processed unhealthy fats.
Our bodies are adept at clearing toxins, hence we have intricate body systems for such, including the liver, gall bladder, kidneys, gastro-intestines, skin, lungs, and more. Though the level of toxins consumed by the average American far exceed the rate at which the human system can make sense of and clear waste. New toxins including artificial sugars, Splenda and Aspartame, as well as pesticides, antibiotic residues, fake colors and flavors, and preservatives all are integral in our food supply. All the synthetic toxins we've innovated almost make the original toxins like high sugar, fake fats (aka margarine and other hydrogenated oils), alcohol, and environmental smoke and other toxins seem benign, when really they also major contributors to toxicity.
I compare toxicity to a job in which your body can only do so much in one day before the rest of the work backs up. Over a week, it's no biggie, but over a year, 5 years, 10 or more, extra toxins ingested daily can become a monstrous and damaging back log which reaks havoc on the cell, causing all sorts of disturbances including mitochondrial dysfunction, causing chronic fatigue and weight gain, and accelerated aging and cancer from DNA damage.
The idea here is that people who've been consuming and/or exposed to a high level of toxins need to cleanse. Once cleansed, it is a wise idea to maintain the system through a daily cleanse shake and concious food and beverage choices. Nutrolution teaches people how to take their bodies from a state of toxicity through a cleanse system and maintain it. For more information, contact me at RRichardson@nutrolution.com
