Body Detoxification for a Fresh Start in Life!

Body DetoxificationThe process of body detoxification has become increasingly more well known and practiced in recent years. However, it’s not a new or modern idea. Hippocrates even realized the importance of cleansing our bodies both internally and externally around 400BC. And, fasting has been used as a way of detoxifying the body for over 10,000 years!

Louis Kuhne, hailed as “A genius in the art of healing” and the father of detox, developed his unique friction sitz bath in the late 1880’s in Germany. Not only did he treat his own cancer, he healed hundreds of various other diseases.

Kuhne’s idea was that all diseases could be attributed to the toxins accumulated in the body. Through a change in diet and the use of his amazing hydrotherapy technique, he had success in treating other wise incurable diseases. The detox bath was inspired by the father of detox!

Many doctors today agree with Kuhne’s theory of body detoxification! Today more than ever before, environmental pollution and even the high chemical content of the food’s we eat are poisoning our entire bodies. And, even the medicines we take are leaving toxic chemicals behind!

Our bodies have their own unique ways of eliminating toxins. Waste is channeled to the kidneys through the blood, the liver diverts waste into the intestines and even makes toxins harmless. Other toxins are eliminated through the skin when we sweat. Even our lungs have their own filtration system.

When an over abundance of toxins are entering the body on a daily basis, it can no longer keep up. These toxins accumulate in the vital organs, cells and bloodstream. They can cause inflammation and irritation to the tissues and cells in the body. And, stop the normal functions that our major organs perform.

Toxins enter the body externally from an unlimited number of sources. Many factories use chemicals that are highly dangerous even if you’re only exposed to low levels. Cleaning products, solvents and even hair dyes and perms contain toxins that enter the body through the skin. You’re even breathing in dangerous chemicals while you’re sitting in traffic.

The symptoms of a toxic over load can include frequent headaches, insomnia, nausea, allergies and even depression. You might also develop acne, psoriasis, eczema and have excess weight gain. Chronic fatigue, memory loss and the ability to focus can even be attributed to toxins.

A high toxicity level in the body has been linked to cancer, tumors, and even high blood pressure. And, toxins are often to blame for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and even psychiatric and auto immune disorders.

In testing done on rats, high levels of toxins altered their genes in such a way that even their great-grandchildren would be affected! The study done at Washington State University, suggests that toxins don’t only affect you, they can affect future generations. They may play an important role in many inherited diseases!

Routine tests performed at laboratories don’t detect the majority of toxins that accumulate in the body. And, many diseases go undiagnosed and therefore untreated. While you are experiencing real pain and real symptoms, a doctor can’t treat what he can’t find!

Body detoxification can literally give you back your life! It’s a complete and very thorough cleansing of the entire body to eliminate toxins through a natural process. By cleansing the colon, kidneys, liver, lungs and even your skin, you can regain health, prevent disease and even reverse the affects of aging.

No matter how old or how young you are, there’s no escaping the toxins that surround you every day. The only true way of ridding your body of deadly toxins is through body detoxification. With a good detoxification regimen, you’ll feel better, have more energy and be healthier almost instantly!

A good detox will cleanse all of the organs and remove toxins that are stored in the blood and cells. The kidneys are a main source of filtration. They work so hard to eliminate wastes and toxins that around one fourth of the oxygen you body uses is used by the kidneys!

The most complex organ is the liver, it performs over 500 various chemical functions around the clock! But, even with all the liver hard work, it can’t keep up with the multitude of toxin chemicals that the body absorbs in this day and age!

It’s recommended that body detoxification be done on a yearly basis. You can even jump start detoxification by eliminating the toxins you have control over such as cigarettes, saturated fats, alcohol, coffee and refined sugars. Even just switching to natural cleaners and personal care products during detox will help your body eliminate toxic waste.

Whether you choose a commercial body detoxification program or choose to follow your own program, the important thing is that you stick with it. And, once your body has a fresh clean start, consider changing your lifestyle and habits to help keep your body healthy.
