Most people today fail to understand that toxicity is a part of modern living. It is no longer a question of "when" you will be exposed to toxins, but really "how much" of a toxic load you already have in your body.
A lot of those who are struggling with health issues and/or struggling with weight issues find themselves jumping from one health product to another just because they believe it has something to do with the efficacy (or lack thereof) of the products they are taking.
We must become aware of the fact that the human body in today's world is loaded with toxins. Just imagine that there are 4 billion pounds of toxic chemicals being placed into the environment EVERY YEAR! The average adult contains more or less 700 chemicals inside the body! No wonder so many today struggle with health issues.
Toxin burden on the body can cause very poor health and most people are not well-equipped to eliminate these toxins from the body. Those who are dealing with a heavy toxic load may just find themselves sucked into what I call the "Vicious Circle" and never really get out of it.
Many also would think that taking supplements or some kind of health system will be the only answer to their predicament. However, just like the yo-yo dieting we see in so many people today, supplementing the body with nutrients and NOT lowering the toxic load will not really change anything.
If you've been struggling with weight issues, for example, and you are on a diet program for a while and yet you haven't seen results then maybe, just maybe you're compromised by the toxic load you have in the body. No matter what kind of program you will get yourself into, you will never find a breakthrough UNLESS you help your body lower the toxic load.
These are 3 things you need to understand about TOXIC LOAD and what it can do to your body:
- A heavy toxic load overwhelms the body's own detoxification system and will leave it unable to function optimally in the end. This will sabotage whatever health attempts you will have in your life as your hormonal and metabolic pathways are no longer really able to function the way they should.
- A heavy toxic load keeps your immune system chained into a cycle of chronic inflammation. This chronic inflammatory response damages your own body's tissues and organs which will eventually lead to the development of many of today's autoimmune diseases.
- A heavy toxic load will hinder your body from assimilating nutrients properly, thus, you are unable to properly utilize whatever supplement or health system you are currently taking. You will simply be wasting money in the long run if you just take your toxic load for granted.
If you are on a journey to lose weight or to feel better, your first priority MUST be to lower your toxic load. This is a very important step in your health journey. We will look into the different ways you can lower your toxic load in the next post, so hang in there!
