4. What You Need to Know About Cleansing and Detoxification
Much attention has been given to this topic in recent years. It seems that we have pushed our planet and our bodies to an unsustainable level of toxicity, and we are suffering grave consequences in the form of debilitating and life-threatening diseases. We know intuitively that it is time to detoxify. But with the same lack of mindfulness that got us into this situation, people are rushing into the popular "detox" programs being promoted, which unfortunately are designed with critical flaws. They are unsustainable in the long-run, and thus fail to address the cause of our suffering. They can provide only a temporary band-aid at best, and, at worst, can actually cause further harm. Most aim to induce an unnaturally accelerated "flushing out" of toxins.
A major cause of all disease is over-toxicity of the body, or toxicosis, including autointoxication (such as when toxins build up in the bowel and are not eliminated). The body is brilliantly designed with many eliminative systems to help it naturally detoxify, or rid itself of excess toxins (including those produced by the body as natural waste products) on a daily basis. These eliminative organs and systems include the blood, kidneys and liver, urine and stool, lymph fluid, mucous, lungs, and skin.
