Cleansing has been around for centuries; the main organs included in cleansing the body are the bowels, kidneys, lungs, liver, and blood. It is not a secret that severe toxicity can lead to death, so be careful because the early signs of heavy metal poisoning can quickly be attributed to other diseases. Such symptoms can be headaches, diabetes, indigestion, muscle pain, fatigue, tremors, impaired memory and distorted thinking.
The liver is the basic detoxification center of the body. It is the body’s filter and excretes foreign substances and wastes from the blood. It reduces toxins to compounds that the body can safely remove through the kidneys, lungs, bowels, and skin. Most of the toxins that are filtered by the liver include pesticides, herbicides, and alcohol. The symptoms of liver toxicity can involve psychological and neurological diseases such as depression, mental illness, mental confusion, headache, abnormal nerve reflexes and tingling in the hands.
Unwanted bacteria and yeast can also incur toxins in the stomach. Once absorbed, these toxins can cause a breakdown of bodily functions. These toxins have been connected to many diseases including, diabetes, liver disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, pancreatitis, allergies, asthma and immune disorders.
Additionally, antibodies formed against microbial molecules can react with the body’s cellular structures. This can cause so many autoimmune illnesses such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, scleroderma, and lupus just to name a few.
It must be nice if there were a place on our planet free from pollutants and toxins. But the sad fact is there is yet not. Our air is polluted, our clothes are made up of artificial fabrics full of chemicals, our water is full of chemicals mainly chlorine, our lotions and shampoos contain chemicals. We cannot fully eliminate these chemicals unless we undergo a detoxification process. It is one of the best ways to remain healthy in a polluted and toxic environment. Below are the main reasons why you need a cleanse.
