Toxicity In Today’s World- Ensuring Your Wellbeing By Being Aware

Harmful, Toxic Chemicals Enter Your Body Through The Following…
  • food
  • air
  • water (drink and shower)
Ways To Protect Yourself From The Toxins Entering Your Body
  • eat foods that are free of pesticides and chemicals, but that does not help to eliminate the toxins that enter your body in all the other ways.
  • take chlorella- whole-food based, green algae, and one of the best natural sources to remove the toxic materials out of your body
Things To Consider
  • Your body-naturally able to remove many of the harmful pathogens, chemicals and poisons you may come into contact with.
  • 21st Century- more contamination than ever. The body’s ability to remove toxins can be easy overwhelmed.
  • Explosion of diseases related to the accumulation of toxins:
    • cancer
    • auto-immune dysfunction
    • brain disorders (ex,: autism, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s)
    • nerve disorders
    • Depression
    • learning disabilities
    • fatigue
    • digestive distress
    • reduced ability to properly assimilate and utilize fats
    • aching joints
    • impaired blood sugar regulation
    • female reproductive problems
Mercury
  • potent toxin
  • can damage the brain, central nervous system and kidneys
  • especially dangerous for children, fetuses, pregnant and nursing women and people who have high levels of mercury bioburden
Body Fat
  • 100 times more toxins in the fat than in the blood
  • decreasing body fat helps to dramatically remove toxins
  • choosing the right foods and exercising are key
Infrared Sauna
  • one of the most effective detoxification strategies
  • use it one hour daily for a month
  • hydrate well before and during the sauna treatment
  • exercise for 30-60 minutes immediately prior to help liberate some of the toxins
Chlorella-Powerful Detoxification Tool
  • helps your body naturally fight environmental pollution
  • one of the most widely used supplements in Japan
  • binds to lingering heavy metals, chemicals and pesticides in your digestive tract
  • does not bind to the minerals the body naturally needs (calcium, magnesium, zinc)
  • “knows” which chemicals belong in your body and which need to be removed

 

History, Benefits, Considerations, Recommendations

History And Benefits Of Chlorella
  • one of the most widely studied food supplements in the world
  • extensively studied as a food source (very useful for vegans and vegetarians)
    • made up of 50 percent protein
    • considered a complete amino acid-based food
    • can enhance B vitamin and protein intake (not an effective alternative to animal sources of vitamin B12 though)
  • may help reduce body fat percentage
  • may be useful in fighting obesity and weight related diabetes
  • may also help reduce both cholesterol and hypertension
  • helps promote clean blood
  • cleanses the bowel and other elimination channels
  • protects the liver
  • helps to efficiently carry metabolic waste away from the tissues
  • powerful detoxifier because it is rich in chlorophyll
    • aid you in processing more oxygen
    • cleanse key elimination systems like your bowel, liver, and blood
    • purify your blood and clean away toxins
    • aid you in promoting optimal blood pressure
    • support elimination of molds in your body
    • help neutralize bad air you might breathe in
    • promote growth and repair of your tissues
    • very useful even beyond detoxification
    • boosts immune system
    • improves digestion (especially if constipation)
    • enhances ability to focus and concentrate
    • increases energy levels
    • balances body’s pH
    • normalizes blood sugar and blood pressure
    • reduces cancer risk
    • freshens the breath
  • three-year double-blind metal detoxification study to remove heavy metals (antimony, lead, cadmium and arsenic)-results: Broken Cell Wall chlorella mixed with cilantro eliminated them ALL, including mercury, with no side-effects
  • discovery of this heavy metal binding power- mining industry- pumped chlorella mixed with water into mine shafts to collect the residual metals
Things To Consider About Chlorella
  • manufacturing process-break down the tough outer cell wall
  • completely indigestible by humans (do not have the enzymes to break down its cell wall)
    • tough outer cell wall- chemically responsible for binding with the toxins inside the body
    • tough outer cell wall- cannot be broken down by our biology
    • chewing/digesting chlorella will not release its powerful benefits
  • source waters (grown and harvested)-free of contamination
  • some people tolerate it better than others
  • contains large concentrations of iron (for men, or postmenopausal women, excessive iron can be a problem- have your blood iron levels checked regularly to keep the iron in your blood within healthy levels)
Recommendations
  • Broken Cell Wall chlorella from a naturally clean water source
    • only form that allows the body to benefit from it
  • start gradually to see how the body tolerates it
    • begin by first eating small amounts of cilantro for a few days
  • best results for detoxification- mixing chlorella with cilantro (organic)
