If your body is overburdened with lots of toxins, both those generated by its normal processes and those entering your system through your food, air or other means,and you are not drinking enough clear water or exercising, your elimination organs will reach a point where they cannot handle the overload.
Our bodies normally generate carbon dioxide, old dead cells, fiber, urea, etc. and the organs that process and eliminate these and other toxic substances include the Lungs,Air Passages and Mucous Membranes, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder,Colon and Skin.
Toxins that can enter into our systems via food, water, absorption through the skin, or inhaled and injected can include the following:
- food additives, colorants, flavorants, MSG, high concentrations of table salt, refined sugars
- toxins from body products like creams, make-up, lipstick, deodorants, fragrances
- medical drugs, creative drugs
- through the air – residues from farm chemical spraying, concentrations of fine powders, dust, radon, asbestos, smoke pollution, exhaust pollution
- in our water – fluoride, heavy metals, residues from farming practices and industry leaking into ground water
- from an insect or snake bite
So, you may think you’re healthy, but you feel weird most times. You struggle to find the energy to get through the day. You’re moody. Your stomach isn’t acting right. And all those headaches!
These types of conditions affect many of us in our daily lives. They’re not serious enough to guarantee a trip to the doctor — or maybe you tried… only to be told there was nothing wrong — but they still tend to drag you down, wearing away your resistance and leaving you feeling like you’re just getting old.
Your body could be telling you something that you need to pay attention to – ASAP.
Consistent fatigue(Extreme tiredness)
Even if you’re sleeping well, you may fight to get through the day. This could be a sign that your body is working too hard to get rid of the toxins you’re pouring into it. How do you cope with fatigue? If you’re answer is “more coffee” or “sweet foods,” you can bet that you’re only making the problem worse. That fatigue could also be in response to hormone disruptors that are killing your immune system.
Stubborn weight gain
It’s never easy to lose weight, but if you’re exercising daily and cutting back on calories and you’re still adding on the kilos, you could be looking at a hormonal problem. Strangely enough, our natural hormone function can be greatly affected by the toxins in our foods and personal care products. You need a complete detox of your diet and personal care routine to give your body a fighting chance.
Bad breath
You brush and brush, chew gum, rinse, and swallow breath mints, and still, you can’t get rid of it. Bad breath is often related to digestive problems, but it can also mean that your liver is struggling to get rid of the toxins in your body. Until you tackle the problem from the source, you’ll continue to scare away anyone who comes close!
Constipation
The intestines get rid of a lot of toxins every day of our lives. When we’re constipated, we’re storing up all those toxins, allowing them to negatively affect our bodies. In addition to stomach upset, constipation can cause headaches, aches and pains, and tiredness. It can also be related to the toxins in your life, especially if you’re consuming a lot of processed foods filled with chemicals, pesticides, and preservatives.
Sensitivity to scents
Strong reactions to smells — particularly fragrances — might mean that you’re simply sensitive to chemicals, which many of us are. It can also mean that your body is fighting toxic overload. Particularly if you suffer headaches or stomach upset simply from scents, this may be the case.
Muscle aches and pains
If you can’t tie these to your workout yesterday, could be that the toxins in your life are working away at your muscles and joints. This is more likely if you experience muscle aches on a regular basis.
Skin reactions
Acne, rashes, and other skin problems may signal a toxic overload. Acne, in particular, can be related to the toxins in our diet or skin care products. Puffy eyes and eczema or psoriasis outbreaks can also be signs that you’ve just reached your toxic limit.
There are so many ways you can detoxify your body; so many products on the market especially … drinks. But, personally I prefer the natural way- with natural foods, a lot of water and exercise.
Here are some of the foods you can use to reduce the toxins in your body.
