We consume a lot of toxic substances everyday. You must be saying aloud “No I don’t “. Well though we may not be consuming them directly, but we definitely are letting them into our bodies.
Surprising isn’t it. Our bones are said to contain 200 times more lead, in comparison to the excavated bones of our ancestors from the period of Christ.
Not only this our Cells are said to contain over four thousand drug residues like dyes, bleaches, antioxidants, preservatives, chemical flavors, buffers, noxious sprays, alkalizers, acidifiers, deodorants, moisteners, drying agents, expanders, modifiers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, thickeners, clarifiers, disinfectants, defoliants, fungicides, neutralizers, anticaking and antifoaming agents, hydrolyzers, hydrogenators, herbicides, pesticides, synthetic hormones, antibiotics and steroids.
Our body continues to accept these toxins upto a certain point. After which the body reaches a saturation point and there is illness.
These toxins get into our body through the environment. The smoke we inhale at traffic jams or outdoor fills our lungs with 20 million particles of foreign matter daily such as carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen dioxide, mercury, DDT, cadmium, PCBs, strontium 90, radioactive iodine, x-rays, nitrates, and thousands more. .
Thankfully we can rid our bodies of these dangerous toxins. Through Juice fasting, a natural and healthy way you can detoxify your body. The body is not only supplied with nutrients but is also being made free of digestive work. Cleansing of the body at a comfortable level takes place. It is a slow but a steady process. People engage in 30-day juice fasts because it takes that long to detoxify. Natural killer cells like lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils and macrophages, work within the body during a fast.
During this procedure you may experience weakness, headaches and your breath becoming foul. There may be a lot of discomfort, but all these symptoms are positive signs. It is a sign that your body is detoxifying. Your blood which was overloaded with this toxic waste is eliminating this waste during fasting. That’s the reason you have foul breath and feel sluggish. Juice fasting not only rids your body of this toxic waste, it also relaxes your mind. With the decrease in digestive activity all the energy is directed towards the mental processes thus enhancing mental activity which is an added advantage.
