DETOXIFICATION
With the number of toxins we are all exposed to in our food, water, and air, the body’s ability to eliminate them can easily be compromised. Over the years, toxins build up in our cells and organs, causing us to feel increasingly sluggish. They may also cause a number of undesirable physical problems, which can eventually result in illness. The good news is that we can eliminate them naturally, over time. Here are some things that have helped us: Colon Cleansing: We have used a product called "Ultimate Cleanse," which is a combination of herbs and fiber that are "designed to cleanse and detoxify your entire internal body." This is according to the manufacturers at Nature’s Secret, who add that it allows you "to feel clean, healthy, and more energized than you have in years." Naturopaths often recommend doing a colon-cleanse at least once a year. As a note, this may also help with weight loss, as the toxins are released from the body. Also, many people who are highly toxic have difficulty losing weight. You can find out more about the Ultimate Cleanse at www.naturessecret.com and it is available at many health food stores. Another resource for cleansing is Dr.Richard Schulze at www.800herbdoc.com Organic Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar: Mixed with water, this natural vinegar product is "a powerful cleansing and healing elixir – a naturally occurring antibiotic and antiseptic that fights germs and bacteria – for a healthier, stronger, longer life!" according to the Bragg’s, who make a brand of this product. We have found that taking it daily, we feel more energetic and clearer. According to the Braggs, it has amazing healing properties including the following:
As a caution, not just any vinegar will do – it has to be organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar, which is readily available at health food stores. Recommended amounts are around 2-3 teaspoons in a glass of water twice a day.
