Re: Repost - Patty's message on detoxing - Excellent

[Guest guest]

Hi Lea,

No, I wouldn’t read your labels. Everyone makes their choice how to eat and care for their body. I try to help when it is wanted but stay out when it isn’t. You ought to see my mother and sister’s cupboards!! I don’t even try to help.

Kenda

Dearest Rogene:

Thank you for this list of bad things. My darling daughter is coming to

Edmonton today, she will be at Planet Organic and then they will be coming

to our home. She frightens us when she comes because she is like Kenda she

goes through our cupboards and reads all the labels. Kenda honey, I know you

have not been to our home, but if you were to come, I would be a bit

frightened. We love you and thank you for all the hard work that you do for

this group.

I had better get busy and make things nice for our darlings.

Love to all......Lea

>> already there from many years of exposures to toxins

>> in our daily

>> cleansing the liver,

>> cleansing the bowel, cleansing the kidneys, which

>> continue to eliminate effectively and efficiently.

>>

>> 3) and finally to build up health with good, pure,

>> nutrient dense

>> foods that also cleanse the body, such as enzyme and

>> vitamin/mineral

>> rich juices and plant foods.

>>

>> Miracle " or, for dieter's, Gittleman's " Fat Flush

>> Plan " . These will

>> give you some good ideas to get you started so that

>> you can continue

>> a program at your own pace on a regular basis.

>> Detoxing is a

>> lifestyle that you learn to implement in your life.

>> Toxins abound

>> daily. So, once you learn the basics of helping to

>> cleanse these

>> organs, you can implement ideas that continue to

>> support them on a

>> regular basis.

>>

>> For instance, you can do a bowel cleanse to start.

>> This might

>> involve doing some enemas or some high fiber eating

>> to get things

>> moving out and clearing the path. Dr. Bernard

>> Jensen's book gives

>> good ideas on this. Some of these programs are hard

>> to follow. It

>> takes tenacity. But once you've got that cleaned

>> out, you will want

>> to eat right to keep things moving along and avoid

>> further toxicity.

>>

>> After you've done the bowel cleanse, then you can do

>> a liver cleanse

>> to get that in tip top shape. It is also called a

>> liver flush, and

>> there are several recipes for that. Pick one that

>> you are

>> comfortable with, (they are some intense ones or

>> some very mild

>> ones), and after you have done that, make sure you

>> get on some

>> supportive liver supplements such as milk thistle,

>> alpha lipoic acid

>> or N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC for short). Swedish

>> bitters are also good

>> for the liver. Herbal teas, such as dandelion,are

>> great for the

>> liver. Bitter herbs, like garlic and onion, are

>> great liver

>> supporters!

>>

>> There are things you can do for the kidneys--drink

>> lots of water,

>> take kidney cleansing herbs, such as uva ursi.

>>

>> There are things you can do for the lymph

>> system....jump rope or use

>> a mini trampoline, drink lots of water..

>>

>> There are things you can do for the skin, another

>> major eliminative

>> organ....an infrared sauna is great to get your body

>> sweating and

>> dumping things through the skin. A rash or acne is

>> your body's way

>> of eliminating things through the skin when the

>> other pathways

>> aren't working as well. DRink lots of water!

>>

>> Exercise can get you breathing hard, which is good

>> for detoxing the

>> lungs. Have you ever noticed after alot of exertion

>> that you begin

>> coughing? This is your lungs clearing thing out.

>> Deep breathing is

>> important for the lungs! And drink lots of water!

>>

>> So, those are the main points. There are many, many

>> things you can

>> do to implement a detox program. The key is to take

>> it a little at a

>> time so that you don't feel overwhelmed. Step by

>> step, day by day,

>> you will begin to see results. And then it becomes

>> a way of life.

>>

>> Supplements are important, but bad quality

>> supplements can actually

>> do more harm than good. So, I don't stress the

>> supplements as much

>> as the proper lifestyle of eating and taking care of

>> the organs.

>> But supplements do have their place, especially when

>> we are sick and

>> in need of extra boosts, and can't possibly get all

>> the nutrients we

>> need from our foods.

>>

>> I hope this helps you!
