 HOW TOXIC IS YOUR BODY? We are bombarded daily by chemicals and pollutants, in our homes, workplaces, and everyday surroundings. We absorb these toxins through our skin, the food we eat, and the air we breathe. When our bodies are unable to flush acidic toxins our of our cells, our immune systems become compromised, making us more susceptible to illnesses, aches and pains. It is believed that the average person carries over 5lbs. of toxins in their cells. Some diseases or conditions that may be due to toxic overload are cancer, obesity, gout, drug addiction, diabetics, arthritis, fibromyalgia, and brain fog. SIGNS OF TOXIC BUILDUP! How can you tell if your body is full of toxins? Here are seven signs that you should consider.

Stubborn Weight Gain: As we age, it can be difficult to lose weight. However, if you are exercising daily and cutting calories and still putting on pounds, your problem may be hormonal. Your hormone functions can be greatly affected by the toxic build up in your body from processed foods, pesticides, cosmetics, medications, cleaning supplies, and environmental pollutants. Bad Breath: if you brush your teeth on a regular basis, and gargle with mouthwash, but it doesn’t seem to help, it could be due to digestive or liver problems. Chronic Constipation: For optimal health, we need to have bowel eliminations at least twice a day.  When fecal waste remains in the body for too long, toxins are reabsorbed and can cause headaches, fatigue, and joint pain.

A sign of toxic overload is an upset stomach or sudden headache after exposure to certain fragrances.

Skin Conditions: Acne, rashes, boils, puffy eyes, eczema and psoriasis outbreaks are all signs that you are on toxic overload. What are Toxins?

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that we are regularly exposed to more than 20,000 chemicals in our environment, which our bodies cannot metabolize. The toxic substances that we do not eliminate are stored in our fat cells and organs causing an epidemic of modern diseases and obesity.
