Q. Why Detox?

Many people today live on the borderline between health and disease. In modern society, we are faced with a vast amount of elements that are gradually poisoning us. Chemicals, toxins, air pollutants, herbicides, pesticides, food additives and even radiation are commonplace in our surroundings.

These toxic materials slowly accumulate in our body over months and years. When the toxic levels in your body reach a threshold, chronic or gradual symptoms begin to appear which affects our health and limit our ability to enjoy the vitality of life.

Consider the following:
* Do you have trouble sleeping or feel tired upon waking?
* Do you have strong smelling urine?
* Do you have sore muscles or joints?
* Do you have pain or discomfort under your right ribcage?
* Do you have less than one bowel movement per day?
* Do you have food cravings?
* Do you have eczema, dry skin, acne or skin rashes?
* Do you have digestive disturbances such as bloating, gas or indigestion a couple hours after eating?
* Do you have difficulty concentrating or have slow or fuzzy thinking?
* Do you have dark circles under your eyes?
* Do you have body odor?
* Do you have bad breath, a coated tongue or a bitter or metallic taste in your mouth?
* Do you have allergies?
* Do you get congestion or "stuffed up" in your nose or sinuses?
* Do you get more than one or two colds per year?
* Do you gain weight easily?
* Do you feel tired, lethargic or sluggish?
* Do you feel like you're not as healthy as other people your age?
* Do you feel depressed or have mood swings?
* Do you feel anxious or stressed out?
* Are your nails weak or brittle?
* Are you sensitive to odours, foods or chemicals?

If you have answered yes to one or more of the symptoms above, you should evaluate your lifestyle and diet for sources of intoxication. A continuous overload of toxins into the body could trigger serious ailments, and if the body becomes so contaminated that it cannot neutralize and expel these excess toxins, chronic illness or even death could result.

Adopting a regular detoxification program will prevent toxic material from accumulating to dangerous levels within the body. This will allow your body’s natural eliminative processes to function more effectively and limit your risk of potential chronic and debilitating symptoms.
