Why Cleanse?

Our country is sicker, fatter, and more toxic than ever before.  Ever increasing incidences of asthma, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, depression, arthritis, allergies, digestive disorders, obesity, anxiety, and MS are taking it's toll on the quality of life in the United States.  We are bombarded with toxins in our genetically modified, pre-packaged, preserved "foods".  Our air is riddled with poison and our hearts and minds are distressed at a constant rate to keep up with the rat race. How can anyone claim they are truly healthy when they have not given themselves the opportunity to release these poisons? Take a look at some of the alarming consequences:
 
  • The U.S. is losing 40 million work days per year due to obesity
  • Two-thirds of Americans are overweight and obese
  • 55 million are pre-diabetic
  • One quarter of the populations has metabolic syndrome
  • $250 billion dollars per year are spent on diet related diseases
  • 80% of diabetics suffer from heart disease, heart transplantations, and dialysis
  • 1 in every three women dies of heart disease
  • 1 in 30 women die of breast cancer
  • In 2008 approximately 565,650 died of cancer, more than 1,500 people a day
  • The National Institutes of Health estimate overall costs of cancer in the year 2003 at $189.5 billion
  • Obesity rates have tripled between 1998 and 2006 in U.S.
  • Total cost of prescription drugs in 2001 was $132 billion
  • Projected cost of prescriptions in  2014: $414 billion
  • The annual cost of prescription drug errors: $100 billion
  • The approximate number of Americans that die annually from FDA approved drugs: 125,000
  • Prescriptions for GERD represented 48% of all prescriptions for digestive diseases in 2004, costing $7.7 billion.
  • Ambulatory care visits for gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD) nearly tripled between 1992 and 2004
  • Diverticular disease hospitalization rates increased 16.4 percent between 1996 and 2004
  • Appendicitis hospitalizations increased 34 percent between 1995 and 2004

No, obesity is not necessarily caused by toxins.  If we continue the fast, cheap, and easy lifestyle of consuming junky and poisonous food, our bodies will be far from fast, cheap, and easy. We will be slow and sluggish.  Our health care costs and time lost at work will far out run the money saved by buying that bacon double cheeseburger that is loaded of hormones, antibiotics, and other chemicals.  Finally, it will not be easy for us to get up in the morning, move our overweight, sluggish, degenerated bodies.

It's time to clean.  Its time to make a change.  Its time to release in ALL senses of the word.  

First we must start with our thinking.  Yes, negative thinking is toxic. Ever hear the phrase "stinkin' thinkin"? Our minds are more powerful than we can begin to comprehend.  If we believe it to be so, then it is so.  Therefore, let's begin to release whatever negative thoughts and emotions that have built a barricade up to a greater and higher quality life. We are ultimate beings that are created to live, love, laugh, and serve.  Where in that sentence did you read to think negative, to be grumpy, frustrated, short tempered, afraid, overweight, diseased and toxic?  Let it go and I guarantee you will physically begin to let it go as well.

Next, we must become aware of our own habits.  What are we doing consistently that is hindering us from achieving optimal wellness? Awareness! Begin to take note of what you are doing daily that is not serving you.

Third, with out the willingness and patience to make a change for the better in your life, you will never make that change.  No matter how much support you are given, your health, your life is ultimately YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

Fourth, Educate!. With all the information out there on how the Hollywood stars are staying slim and young, and every magazine has a new herb to help with every disease know to man, how in the world do you decipher through it?  I will help you.  Many years of classroom, many years of experimenting, many many books read, many wonderful patient outcomes has taught me what works and what doesn't.  It is simple actually, despite what all hype.  Release the toxins and replenish the deficiencies to have an optimally healthy and joyous life.
