External toxins from your environment (i.e. chemicals found in your food, water and air, pesticides, heavy metals, and other pollutants) bombard your body on a daily basis and cause many of the chronic diseases we see today.
If your body has adequate nutrition in sufficient quantities to provide healthy biochemistry, and if the elimination and detoxification organs are functioning at optimal levels, your body is able to safely and efficiently remove these unwanted substances through cellular processes through through the main detoxification organs. (i.e. skin, intestines, liver, kidneys, and lungs). The toxins are then removed through perspiration, bowel elimination, urination, and respiration. However, if the body is absorbing more toxins than it can safely eliminate, a state of chronic toxicity can result. Most chronic diseases can be attributed to the presence of unwanted substances in the body or the lack of necessary substances in the body. When your body has been exposed for a prolonged period of time, it loses its ability to detox at the same rate that toxins are produced and ingested, causing your organs to weaken.
The presence of unwanted substances in the body is a very common cause of illness. The process of removing unwanted substances from the body at the cellular level addresses and corrects this imbalance. However, for an effective detoxification it is essential to provide the body with the dietary substances necessary for the body to perform this important and natural function.
A detox allows your body to safely neutralize and eliminate harmful chemicals within the body. The detox program is designed to enhance the body’s natural ability to handle toxins. While it is not realistic to eliminate external toxins completely, the body can be supported in its natural detoxification function so that it can better cope with the daily stresses of modern life. Detoxification has a beneficial effect on most chronic diseases because it impacts almost every system in the body: cardiovascular, nervous, immune, respiratory, reproductive, gastrointestinal, urinary, skin, musculoskeletal, and endocrine.
