Cleansing has become a clique term at this point. Too many
products and programs have used marketing jingles and rhetoric to try to rope
people into protocols and procedures to quickly loose weight or feel better in
some way that are simply completely unhealthy and downright harmful to the body
and mind. Cleansing in its truest sense is time honored health process that
removes and cleans the body of built up toxins, releases stored weight,
reverses and slows the symptoms of aging, increases energy and vitality and
builds overall health. It is also one of the best ways to practice preventative
health care. Accomplishing this many goals in one health process can be a
difficult task, but if done correctly can be done healthfully and effectively,
however cleansing cannot be done by any type of quick fix scheme.
Why Cleanse
Cleansing is more needed today than at any other time in
history. The sheer number of toxic chemicals that are released into our environment
and absorbed by our body on a daily basis is staggering. The CDC estimates we
each have between 200-400 chemicals lodged in our body tissues and circulating
throughout our body, many of which are carcinogenic, or cancer causing. We know
this to be true by the dramatic increases of cancer cases in the past several
decades with estimates of cancer rising by up to 75% in the next decade. Other
health conditions like autoimmune disorders, type 2 diabetes, spectrum
disorders like Autism, attention problems like ADD, hormone imbalance and infertility,
to just name a few, have all been linked to toxic chemical exposure. It is said
that the amount of toxins our grandparents were exposed to in their lifetime we
are now exposed to in a single day! This makes sense if we look at how many
people where dealing with chronic health conditions and diseases at that time,
say 50 years ago, compared to what we see today. The number has increased by
staggering amounts.
Our body is a self-healing and self-regulating intelligent
machine! It knows these toxins are toxic to body systems, especially vital
organs so traps and stores toxins the body is not able to remove quickly in our
fat cells. This ensures they are somewhat neutralized and away from vital
organs. The liver and kidneys are most responsible for filtering and removing
harmful toxins but after a lifetime of exposure to these toxins, or even say 20
years, both organs are run down, tired and not as easily able to get rid of or
deal with the voluminous amounts of toxins being processed through the body,
this means more toxins are left to circulate throughout our system or become
stuck in our fat cells.
Health Conditions Reversed, Healed & Prevented Through Cleansing
Health problems, symptoms and many diseases are directly
related to toxicity and toxic chemical exposure throughout life. By cleansing,
in its true sense, you reduce your exposure to these toxins and support the
body in removing the toxins, once and for all, from the body, even those
trapped in fat cells. True Cleansing also boosts immunity and all other
functions of the body to health and healing happen much more quickly and
completely. Once these toxins are removed the body can begin to heal, begin
working more efficiently, can regenerate, restore and release excess stored
weight. So many times in the Raw Vitality 30-day program we see health symptoms
begin to clear up naturally as the body is cleanses. Toxins are also directly
related to lower energy levels, crashes throughout the day, foggy brain or not
being able to think as clearly, and lowered physical performance in all ways.
Once toxins are properly cleansed and eliminated all areas of health begin to
improve.
Cleansing to Lose Weight
Excess weight, especially as we age, that just doesn’t seem
to budge is most often related to toxicity. Toxins trapped in fat cells will
not be released if the body knows they cannot be flushed from the body permanently.
Once the liver and kidneys are supported, new toxic chemical exposure is
lessened and the body’s immune system and self-healing mechanisms are supported
and functioning at their highest, stored toxins will be released, the excess
fat cells will be dissolved and the extra weight will naturally drop.
Key Components to Look for in a True Cleanse
True cleansing, in its purest form must accomplish several
main objectives: 1) Remove Toxicity, 2) Reverse Deficiencies, 3) Increase
Immunity, 4) Balance the Body, 5) Release Excess Weight. To accomplish all of
those things at the same time may seem like a daunting task but can be done
with the 4 main ingredients to a True Cleanse.
Fresh, Whole, Nutrient Dense Eating & Juicing
To flush toxins, restore deficiencies and accomplish all of
the other key aspects of a true cleanse, nutrient dense foods and juices are a
must! Nutrient dense foods and juices provide the nutrients the body needs to
heal, restore and repair. They also help to reverse deficiencies and help the
body start to release excess weight and increase immunity. Whole fresh organic
foods and juices need to be at the top of the list if you really want to
cleanse your body. Cleanses that focus on not eating, skipping meals and
replacing them with processed powders or products will not truly cleanse your body,
will add more toxicity and create a state of imbalance. Many times individuals
come out of a “Cleanse” more unhealthy then when they started. Fresh foods and
juices are key to true cleansing.
Movement & Exercise
If you want your body to release built of toxins you have to
move your body. As toxins are released from storage in the body they must be
moved out of the body effectively. Movement and exercise is the best way to do
this. The immune system also relies very heavily on the movement of muscles to
move lymph, in fact lymph, the fluids that contain our white blood cells,
cannot move without muscle movement. Movement will also help your body to
release excess weight, reduce stress which causes more toxicity and bring
greater balance overall. A cleanse that does not incorporate exercise and
movement is not a true cleanse as toxins released they will not be removed
quickly or effectively.
Stress Management
If you are utilizing a cleanse to lose weight or help heal
or prevent a health problem, you can’t overlook the role of stress. Stress has
been dubbed the silent killer because it plays a main role in most all health
conditions, the development of health problems, the worsening of health
conditions and increased weight gain. Stress is near the top of the list of
weight imbalance. As cortisol levels rise in the body, weight begins to be
stored. If you aren’t implementing a way to bring down your stress levels it
will be very hard to get rid of excess weight. Stress also created more acidity
in the body and increases the rate of aging. Acidity is toxic to the body and
when we are stressed the inside of our body can be 30 years beyond our calendar
age. Healthy stress management practices like meditation, yoga and deep
breathing help to reduce overall stress, increase your immunity, reverse health
problems and balance weight. Learning and using healthy stress management
practices are key to a true cleanse.
Reducing Exposure to Toxins
If you focusing on getting rid of built up toxins in the
body the first thing you need to do is decrease your exposure to new toxins.
There are many toxins you are exposed to that you have little control over, For
instance you don’t have any control over the air you breathe, or the environment
you live in. However, there are many areas of toxic exposure you have lots of
control over. In fact most toxins come into your body through the foods you
eat, the products you use on your body and in and around your home. By learning
green living practices and beginning to use them in your everyday life you can
begin to reduce your exposure to toxins, which means less toxic build up in the
body. A true cleanse will teach you how to start reducing your exposure to more
toxins.
