Did you know that the body has to constantly use multiple avenues to keep your inner house as clean as it knows how to? Well it does…. it comes complete with built in checks and balances, filters, ways to neutralize, synthesize, metabolize. It is pre-programmed to protect it’s domain in a variety of ways via the immune system. Yet sometimes, those checks and balances seem to come up short. I like to say for our body to do what it was created by design to do it has an inner tool box equipped with all the tools it needs to get the job done, but over time tools that it requires come up missing. What are some of the common signs that you may be missing essential tools in your nutritional tool box?
One indication that is common are people who have high blood pressure. The kidney’s are one of the major factors in maintaining and controlling blood pressure, the kidneys are a filter. We are familiar with common filters in our day to day living like air, oil & water; we can use them for an extended factor of time, then those filters ends up needing to be replaced after they have filtered all they can. When our inner filters are tossing their invisible arms in the air so to speak saying I’m overloaded, the body has to initiate a back up plan. so for those of you who struggle with lung issues …… guess where you start?
When I’m working with a client who says they have bronchial issues, or frequent upper respiratory stuff going on, (includes asthma) they always look at me weird when I start to support their kidneys. Yet, if they do a QFA Analysis, guess what shows up 100% of the time… Weak kidneys.. Yep….
The another important filter our body relies on is the Liver; when it’s running sluggish it will toss elements to a secondary zone to help keep our body running cleaner…. that zone would be one of our largest elimination organs.. which is our skin… so if you have acne, eczema, etc. realize your liver is typically overloaded so it’s moving stuff out of its way in an attempt to do its job as best as it can given what you are offering it to work with… a.k.a. lousy diet and a lifestyle loaded with chemicals that it has to figure out how to neutralize and properly dispose of…
So what does that encompass? Our lifestyle habits of processed foods, fried foods, high sugary foods, high stressed environments, lack of sound sleep, dehydration; but also can and usually does include cleaning products which have a variety of harmful chemicals we either breathe in or absorb through our skin, soaps, lotions and even makeup products you apply to your skin . The average woman exposes herself to a wide array of chemicals just getting ready for work everyday. Understand when you buy those items the stronger the “good” smell is normally indicates the more chemicals they are trying to cover up with the artificial scent. Either way, those chemicals don’t just float off into never-never land, they are in your body and your body has to do something with them, normally they are stored where? Body fat, some also store in body tissue; either way we end up storing stuff that wasn’t meant to be inside our body. I like to use the analogy of that rusty barrel buried in a land fill with toxic bad guys, after time of it sitting there and the barrel rusts, a.k.a. “oxidation damage”, the slow trickle effect begins to poison the ground soil, and the watering system. So yes it’s true this stuff rarely kills you quickly, it is the slow and steady time release effect. Which is usually why most people say, “I don’t understand I’ve always been healthy , I hit my 40’s or 50’s and the bottom fell out of my health”. No it didn’t you chose to bury those nasty drums long time ago, your landfill decided to start rejecting more deposits that’s. all..
There is much more depth and protocol of course; and there is more to the story than just the few areas I touched base on here.
