The average American is exposed to over 500 toxins a DAY from the following!:
1) Food: From processed foods, to pesticides on fruit and veggies.
2) Water: Some tap water has been tested containing “over the counter” medications. Bottled water is not regulated as strictly as tap and there is a concern about plastic bottles.
3) Environment: Cigarette smoke, pollution, and house hold cleaners all affect our bodies.
4) Personal Products: Toothpaste, perfumes, and cosmetics are some examples.
5) Stress: Kills the ”good” bacteria in your intestines which aids in keeping your system strong.
Our Liver serves many purposes from metabolizing fat to detoxing our bodies. Our systems can “overload” with toxins, which can be too hard for the body to handle.
Some signs can be:
Dry Hair
Dark Circles
Bloating after eating
“Foggy” thinking
What is a woman to do to get her beauty back? Simply increase the intake of the following:
1) Dark Leafy Greens, such as spinach, kale and chard. The chlorophyll aids in flushing out excess water weight. Lifestyle tip: Simply switch from iceberg to a dark leaf lettuce!
2) Green Tea contains catechins, which speed up the liver activity and is full of antioxidants. Lifestyle Tip: Replace a cup of java for the goodness of green tea!
3) Lemon pulp contains the antioxidant ‘d-limonene’ which enhances toxins to be flushed out of your system. Lifestyle Tip: Replace a soda with a water with lemon.
