Redesigning Our Approach to Cleansing Eliminating Functions• DAILY• WEEKLY• MONTHLY• QUARTERLY• ANNUALLYTHE GOAL: To give you the tools to design the
programs you personally need
OUR BODIES PERFORM 2 MAIN FUNCTIONS:
• CLEANSING/DRAINING: dislodging, breaking down, and moving toxic materials through the body and out through the eliminative channels
(CATABOLIC FUNCTIONS)• BUILDING/ENERGIZING/HEALING: This
involves the constant repair and upkeep of our bodies.
(ANABOLIC FUNCTIONS)
Why We Need to Detoxify Regularly
• Carcinogenic Chemicals in our Water• Carcinogenic Occupational Toxins• Dietary Sources of Pollutants• Cleaning Chemicals• Personal Care Product Chemicals• Air Pollution• Harmful Xenoestrogen Sources
The Chemical Load Begins Before Birth
“…up to 232 toxic chemicals in the umbilical cord blood of 10 babies…The findings constitute hard evidence that each child was exposed to a host of dangerous substances while still in its mother’s womb.”

STARTLING STATISTICS• In 2007, 4.1 billion pounds of approx. 650 chemicals were
produced by industry and federal facilities. Toxic Inventory Release Database **We have approximately 75,000 chemicals produced to date
• We are plagued by cancers of our eliminative channels with lung cancer in the lead followed by colon cancer
• Lung cancer: 226,160 new cases yearly• Colon cancer: 103,170 new cases yearly• Urinary cancer: 141,140 new cases yearly• Skin cancer: 81,240 new cases year

Environmental Medicine • “Chemical compounds ubiquitous in our food, air
and water are now found in every person. The bioaccumulation of these compounds in some individuals can lead to a variety of metabolic and system dysfunctions… The primary classes of the most common toxic offenders are solvents, pesticides, and heavy metals. Of heavy metals, mercury is the one most individuals are burdened by. The systems most affected…include the immune, neurological and endocrine system.”
Walter J. Crinnion ND. Alternative Medicine Review, Vol 5, 2000.
www.search.epa.gov• 80% of people’s exposure to chemicals occurs
in the HOME. EPA (5 year study)• many homes had chemical levels 70 times
higher than that of outside air. • Common household cleaners are 3 times
more likely to cause cancer than outdoor air pollution.
Harmful Estrogens Are Found Everywhere
Foreign or xenoestrogens are found in:• The plastic or styrofoam cup holding your
morning coffee• The PVC piping used in your homes and lawns• Detergents, cleaners, pesticides, lawn
fertilizers, meat, unfiltered water, cosmetics• Microwaving foods in plastic can enhance the
transfer of the plastics or phthalates into our bodies.
Universal Chemicals found in Human Fat• Styrene from Styrofoam cups• Dichlorobenzenes from moth balls/deodorants• Xylene from gasoline• Ethylphenol from drinking water• OCDD from wood and treatment chemicalsThe first 4 are solvents. The 5th is a dioxin.The word, “universal” means that the average
person has all of these in their body. EPA STATS,1982

WHO NEEDS DETOXIFICATION?
WE ALL DO
WHAT MAY BE THE BENEFITS?

Prepare Your Mind to Meet Your Goals
• We must have 100% commitment to truly get well. We may have to do some things we enjoy less than others. But what if we could change our thought processes and enjoy it all? That would be huge!!
• For every belief, there is a result. The faster we change our thinking, the faster the shift that brings the desired result.
GOALS OF COLON CLEANSING • To reduce transit time (the time it takes for food to exit
the body). Transit time can range from 10 to 100 hours. This reduces harmful chemical generation of bowel toxins.
• Improve digestion• To improve absorption of water soluble vitamins (B,C)• To maintain already normal range cholesterol levels. • To reduce the amount of pathogenic organisms.• To increase the natural healthy colon flora• A clean environment may reduce toxins reabsorbing into
body tissues
HEALTHY LIFESTYLE: THE COLON• Breakfast like a king, Lunch like a queen, Dinner like a pauper. This
decreases digestive burden at night.• Chew your food well. Eat a high fiber diet. Eat only until satisfied• Eat in a relaxed atmosphere• Drink no more than 6 oz of fluid at a meal. Avoid milk, juice, and coffee
with meals• Make half of your plate fresh, raw, or lightly steamed vegies. • Drink fresh pure water: 8 cups/daily.• Eat pickled vegetables and fermented foods like sauerkraut.• Eat fruit alone.• Exercise• Release hatred, anger, rage, fear, stress, anxiety, worry verbally and
verbally replace with the opposite weekly.
CLEANSING IMPACTS THE KIDNEYS
• “Kidneys are the body’s last-route filtering system. If the kidneys don’t work correctly, toxins build up.”

CLEANSING IMPACTS THE LUNGS
• IN CHINESE MEDICINE, the respiratory system governs the mucus balance of the body as well as the voice volume and flow of Chi energy.
• It belongs to the Metal Element, which includes of principle of immunity and protection to the body.
CLEANSING IMPACTS THE SKIN
• Elasticity, moisture regulation, and pigment control are only a few of the functions occurring within the skin.
• This marvelous organ functions as a protective barrier to disease-causing organisms
• The skin often is a mirror of inner toxicity. It is an eliminative organ. Overload here may signal congestive lymph, colon, and kidneys, and liver.
CLEANSING IMPACTS CELLULAR HEALTH
Keeping cells clean has many benefits:• Healthy aging• Better mental and physical well-
being• An overall reduction of health
