About Detox
At Natra-Heal we detox the body the natural way by addressing the cause of the disease.
As part of our usual body functionality we naturally detox every day. Eliminating toxins and waste via our kidneys, liver, colon, lymph glands, lungs and skin. Toxins can be found in our everyday environment; tobacco, alcohol, food additives, drugs and anesthetics’, pesticides, heavy metals and industrial pollutants. We need our body to function optimally and rid our systems of these toxins as they are harmful waste products which attack our immune system and can cause a wide variety of side effects, including; lethargy and tiredness, headaches and migraines, colds and flu, bad skin, bad breath and body odour problems, sinus problems, the list goes on. In fact, some theory exists to suggest that detoxification may at some point be suggested as an alternative to the prevention of immune deficiency diseases.
Our body is a very complex piece of engineering but in its simplest form is a collection of cells and tissue. Cells consist of electrical charges and ideally contain an even proportion of positive and negative ions. In this ‘ideal’ state we are perfectly balanced and our body functions by removing toxins and absorbing nutrients from food, water and oxygen. When the body experiences any form of trauma, which can be caused by poor diet, ill health or injury the cells become more positively charged and consequently do not work as effectively and the process of storing toxins begins.
Even a lack of exercise promotes toxic build up as our cells are insufficiently oxidized. Therefore stagnation of our natural detoxification process occurs.
There are many text book examples of how we should live our lives or at least improve the way we live our lives. Because it seems we are not performing this task effectively. Often we do not realize this until it is too late. Our immune system breaks down and we become ill, in one or more of many ways.
With health, diet and lifestyle being scrutinized even more now than ever, it is clearly apparent from many areas of research that our body needs assistance to function efficiently and effectively within the environment that we now live in and are largely responsible for.
Our ideal environment would be harmonious, stress and pollution free. We would all benefit from a good, natural balanced diet, with food containing no additives or have been processed in any way.
In a nutshell to detox means cleansing the blood. This is done by removing impurities from the blood in the liver, where toxins are processed for elimination. The body also eliminates toxins through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymphatic system, and skin during a body detox. However, when these systems are compromised, impurities aren’t properly filtered and the body is adversely affected.
A body detox program can help the body’s natural cleansing process by:
- Resting the organs through fasting.
- Stimulating the liver to drive toxins from the body.
- Promoting elimination through the intestines, kidneys, & skin.
- Improving circulation of the blood.
- Refueling the body with healthy nutrients.
