Going far beyond drugs and alcohol, practitioners of Natural Health define detoxification as the removal of harmful or potentially damaging substances from our bodies, environment, diet, and emotional make-up. We have become a toxic dumping ground where on a daily basis we are subject to polluted air and water, GMO’s, untested drugs, preservatives in vaccines, heavy metals, incompatible dental materials, fast food, and negative emotions. And it accumulates in our cells, impacts our immune system, reproduction, behavior, brain function, and energy. Reducing or eliminating continued exposure is the first step in detoxification. This includes what you eat, drink, put on your body, clean with, and people you surround yourself with. The next step is to remove those toxins that are already imbedded within your body. Cleansing of your organs of elimination- kidneys, liver, bowels, skin, and lymph helps with detoxifying the other organs and systems loaded with pollutants. But don’t forget that thoughts, beliefs, relationships, and jobs can also be toxic. There are many modalities that can help you detoxify, including Acupuncture, Anthroposophical and Ayurvedic Medicine, Biological Dentistry, Body Work, Colon Hydrotherapy, Energetic Medicine, Functional Medicine, Homeopathy, Naturopathy and many others
