In your body’s duties to maintain itself and provided it’s normal maintenance tasks, a little know fact that most people do not know and probably do not care to know is that toxins amass in your body and stay there for ever until they are expelled. Many stay for decades. As you strive to clean up in order to detoxify, as in the case of fasting or juicing, these toxins come out of every pore in your body. To me, they feel like little ice crystals. My eyes, ears, nose, lips, tongue, underarms and everywhere else is coated with itchy little crystals. One’s derriere is a great collector for large volumes of these crystals into which one sits most of the day. I mention this because it is one of the unmentioned annoyances in your body’s normal tasks and one that is normally not discussed. Shower every day? Imperative! As the toxins are expelled, your NK (natural killer) cells can then attack the weak, sick and damaged cells on their way to consuming those cells that are not behaving properly (ie:cancer or tumors). It has been God’s plan all along but man has changed diet and lifestyle so much that it takes a strong effort to get back to where one’s body can do it’s job. I’m working on mine. You may have more time to plan. Think about it.

Sam and I have studied the work of Dr. Mark Hyman. He is the editor in chief of Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine and a leader in teaching about functional medicine. He founded the UltraWellness Center in Lenox, Massachusetts and has authored several books. His website is http://www.ultrawellnesscenter.com. You can find links to several resources on his website including a listing of functional doctors by location. Sam and I completed a six week detox program (Dr. Hyman has several programs) “UltraMind”. It was a good experience and we learned a lot about nutrition. More information available if desired!!!! Keep your feet up!!!!
