 The Real Benefits of Detox


So what are the benefits of detox? What does detox actually means? Detox is a bodily process that transforms health threatening toxic substances from our environment, diets, as well as our own bodies into something harmless or excreted.

One of the most complex detoxification functions is against heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadminum, nickel, arsenic, and aluminum.

Our body’s main detoxification organs and systems are liver, colon, kidneys, gallbladder, lungs, skin, lymph, and blood. They help rid your body of wastes and toxins. However, our bodily functions were designed when the world were less polluted.

But now with a world with much more toxins and pollution, our body organs and systems have to work a lot harder to rid the exponentially increased waste and toxins.

Yet we are helping in anyway to our organs and systems to do their job more effectively. Imagine overworked workers who are also not provided with enough food for every meal.

This will definitely tire them out and their efficient and effective work performance will naturally drop. This leads to work not fully accomplished or even worse undone.

We are treating our body in the same manner. We are not providing the body organs and systems with proper nutrition to function and perform their best even though they are working much harder than before.

This simple concept of detox is to achieve these aspects: 


  • Reduce the amount of toxins and pollution into our body to lessen the burden against the detoxification organs
  • Promote healthy eating, nutrition and supplementation to help our body effectively clear the toxins


 

Great Benefits of Detox:

  • Improve our Immune Function
  • Scavenge free radicals and eliminate toxins
  • Strengthen body’s fight against cancer cells and generate healthy cells in our body
  • Cleanse mucous, congestion, fermentation, inflammation in our digestive tract
  • Purify our blood
  • Reform our lifestyle addictions for sugar, salt, high glycemic carbohydrates, alcohol, junk foods, nicotine, etc

 

From the 2 objectives and various benefits provide a strong healing process for our body. They strengthen our body to further cleanse out waste we have accumulated since childhood that has resulted in our body being congested, inflamed, and damaged.

Once our body are not kept busy dealing with all these cleansing process, it can its focus on doing the more important things like fighting back cancer and chronic degenerative diseases, restoring our health, and repairing the damage in our body.

What Are the Causes of Staphylococcus Aureus?

Most people have no idea that some surfaces of the human body (skin and mucous membranes) are covered with various microorganisms called normal flora, most of which are bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus. Normal flora are not harmful and some species can even prevent other organisms from causing infections in the area. 
Staph aureus is one of at least 1,000 species of bacteria that live on the skin and do not cause an infection. However, like all normal flora, if staph enters the bloodstream, it can cause a life-threatening illness.

  1. Definition

  2. Staph aureus is one of a group of bacteria that can cause a number of diseases when they infect various tissues of the body like the skin, nasal passages or genitals. Staph can cause a range of illnesses from mild skin infections, such as boils, pimples, impetigo and cellulitis, to more serious illnesses, such as food poisoning, bacteremia (blood poisoning), toxic shock syndrome or pneumonia.

    Direct Contact

  3. A staph infection can be spread by skin-to-skin contact with an infected person or contact with a contaminated object, such as a telephone, a glass, a tabletop or a child's toy. Staph also spreads when people share personal items like bed linens, towels or clothes.

    High Absorbency Tampons

  4. Women who use super absorbent tampons, contraceptive sponges or diaphragms can develop a staph infection that leads to toxic shock syndrome, an illness that features a sudden high fever and a rash resembling a sunburn on the palms or soles. A tampon left in for a long period of time provides an excellent breeding ground for staph to multiply.

    Improper Food Preparation, Handling and Storage

  5. Uncooked food contains bacteria that may or may not be harmful. Staph can be caused by cross-contamination of cooked food with raw food by cooking utensils, cutting boards or fingers that have touched the contaminated food. 
    Several other conditions are associated with Staph aureus food poisoning, including inadequate refrigeration, inadequate cooking temperature, poor personal hygiene (improper washing of hands and/or equipment) and food allowed to cool too long at room temperature. Staph grows quickly in food held at room temperature and produces a toxin that is very resistant to heat, refrigeration and freezing.

    Unnecessary Antibiotic Use

  6. Widespread overuse of antibiotics for conditions not caused by bacteria has introduced a variety of superbugs that are resistant to many commonly used antibiotics. Superbugs like MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) appear when an antibiotic fails to kill its bacterial target, and the bacteria learn how that drug works and how to survive its execution. MRSA and other superbugs are the result of decades of this process.
    MRSA infections used to be exclusive to hospitals and other health-care settings, however, outbreaks are now appearing in the larger community among young, healthy people. 
    Some strains of staph are now showing resistance to the antibiotic vancomycin, once highly effective in treating staph and other infections.

    Prevention/Solution

  7. Drug resistance is becoming more common and the results can be severe. Thousands of people in the United States die each year from antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. It is now a significant global problem. You can help by using antibiotics responsibly in the following ways:
    Do not pressure your doctor for antibiotics--they can be very effective but cannot treat all types of infections, e.g., colds, flu or bronchitis.
    Take your antibiotics exactly as prescribed. Follow your doctor's instructions and do not stop treatment early, even if you are feeling better. 
    Do not take antibiotics that are not prescribed for you. The antibiotic may not be appropriate for your infection. 
    Practice good hygiene to prevent infections. Wash your hands thoroughly (for at least 15 to 20 seconds) with plain soap and water after using the bathroom, preparing raw meat or poultry and when coming in close contact with a sick person.

If you are a person that pays attention to your health you should know we are in the middle of a health war and it looks like the enemy is winning. Cancer is now the number one cause of death in the United States, obesity is at an all time high, and we are identifying diabetic teenagers on a regular basis.  Young adults with heart disease are the norm. We are taking medications that are supposed to help us (which they do) but they have side effects which are breaking down our bodies and preventing us from achieving optimal health.

The food we eat is a mess as well. You need to look into high fructose corn syrup, aspartame, MSG and you’ll see what I mean. There’s a reason you can’t eat just one French fry or one potato chip, these chemical laced foods are designed to keep you eating. Your body doesn’t recognize chemicals, it cannot properly digest them  so it stores it as fat, which may lead to the accumulation of free radicals which could be one of the reasons cancer is killing so many of us. I also feel these chemicals are the catalyst for our obesity issues. As I stated before, your body stores these chemicals as fat. Your body pulls these chemicals away from your major organs and surrounds it with fat and water.

These days so many people have trouble losing that last 10-12 lbs. When we are eating food that has more chemicals than nutrients there is no wonder we are obese and full of disease.

As bad as all this sounds there is good news. We can rid our bodies of toxins, we can fill our bodies with nutrients, we can lose those stubborn 10-12lbs. Nutritional cleansing is the key. Many of you may not be familiar with Nutritional Cleansing.

Many cleanses deal with cleansing specific organs. Nutritional cleansing works at a cellular level, so we’re talking about cleansing your entire body from head to toe. Many cleanses require you to fast.  Nutritional cleansing programs REQUIRE you to eat. Many cleanses help you to lose weight but in the process you may lose muscle. With nutritional cleansing you may lose the weight while you gain lean muscle. The most powerful component of nutritional cleansing is the replenishing aspect. ALL cleanses remove toxins from your bodies; however, when your body is still lacking the proper nutrients your body is not capable of truly taking care of itself. What nutritional cleansing does is not only cleanse the body but it also provides the body with vital nutrients which also enables the body to function at its highest level, which in turn helps the body to fight off disease and stay healthy and keep you feeling great.

I interviewed former World Series Champion Sean Wooten, listen as he discusses the powerful benefits of nutritional cleansing.
