Fat Toxicity – Why We Need to Detoxify
Why do we have Toxic Body Fat?
Our environment and the food we eat have changed drastically over time: everything is much more toxic now. The world we live in is full of toxins, including pesticides, herbicides and heavy metals in food, chemical scents in candles, chloride in drinking water – just to name a few. The changes have occurred so recently that our bodies have not yet been able to adapt. Our bodies cannot process all these toxins. Because of this, nearly everyone has toxic buildup in their bodies. As a natural defense mechanism, toxins are pulled away from our vital organs and stored in body fat. This is why so many people carry unwanted body fat (often around lower belly, hips and thighs) even if they are reducing caloric intake and exercising. When weight loss stalls, in order to lose that unwanted fat weight, we must detoxify. It is important that we detoxify to prevent disease and maintain health.
It might be helpful to consider the analogy of our bodies as a bathtub. Just like water fills up a tub through a faucet, toxins fill up our bodies by the air we breathe, the things we touch and the food and beverages we eat and drink. In a bathtub, if the water comes in at a faster rate than the water goes out through the drain, the water level rises and might even spill over the top. In our bodies, when toxins come in at a faster rate than our bodies can process them, our body pulls those toxins away from our vital organs and holds them in fat stores. The toxins are also stored in the thyroid, brain, central nervous system, and liver. Sometimes our toxic load is so high that it “spills over the top” which can lead to a range of health problems such as diabetes, skin irritations, heart disease, chronic pain, digestive problems, headaches, mood swings, irritability, etc…
By focusing on eliminating toxins from our diets and eating whole foods, we help our bodies detoxify. Back to the bathtub analogy: by decreasing the amount of water coming in through the faucet, the water level naturally falls. In our bodies, when we decrease the toxins coming in, our overall toxic load falls. It is also important to “clean the drain” so that toxins can be more efficiently eliminated. Our healthy lifestyle program offers whole food nutrition as well as a liver and kidney cleanse so we effectively decrease our overall toxic load. When we decrease our toxic load, we feel better and also are
able to lose unwanted fat weight – especially lower belly, hips and thigh fat.

Healthy Hair Facts
Did you Know?
Your hair consists of 100,000 strands, with about 1,000 strands per square inch of your scalp. Hair is made up of a protein called Keratin, the same protein that protects fingernails. Keratin can be damaged from sun exposure, chemical processing, coloring, environmental pollutants, heat styling and cleansing with harsh shampoos.
*Common characteristics of damaged hair
-split ends, dulled shine, lack of moisture, extreme breakage, rough texture
-besides damage, the vibrancy and depth of hair color can fade from shampooing and sun exposure. Most hair coloring products penetrate into the layers of Keratin, causing hair to dry out, produce flyaways and create breakage that can cause hair thinning.
