Why do we Need to Detoxify?

In today’s toxic environment, chemical and heavy metal residues and tissue acid wastes build up in the body quickly, resulting in a greater incidence of allergies as well as mental and physical incapacitation and decline. Everyday living in today’s polluted and stressful environment with chemicals such as pesticides, additives, and preservatives found in much of our food, water, and beauty products can burden our body. The body’s excretion pathways may be able to counteract these negative influences for a time, but they can become overwhelmed after long-term exposure. This buildup of toxins throughout the body compromises our health and our appearance. Many healing traditions except Western medicine offer body purification as a means of healing and avoiding disease. Pimples, rashes, dark circles under the eyes, swollen joints, and blotched complexions often indicate a buildup of tissue acid wastes inside the body.
