Are You Toxic?

Are you tired? Have trouble loosing weight? Always seem to plateau and get stuck in one spot when dieting? Suffer from "Brain Fog", low energy and anxiety? You may be toxic from chemicals and heavy metals. We are constantly bombarded with toxins and our bodies do their best to support us but sometimes they need a little help.

Help your body help itself by giving it what it needs and by helping it detoxify. Heavy Metal testing is always a good idea. It is easy and inexpensive. But shot of that, there are other things you can do to support yourself.

Ridding yourself of yeast and parasites and supporting your GI tract is great way to help your body. Include foods in your diet that help your liver (onions, garlic, asparagus to name a few...) and support your liver with supplementation. N-AC is great for the liver and SAM-e helps you detoxify. Plants like Dandelion and Milk Thistle help and probiotics are great. I recommend that you do a gentle cleanse and GI support twice a year - we have a very simple, safe protocol at Energie! that will not throw you off balance and will give your metabolism a boost.

Natural Cell Defense Liquid Zeolite is also a great supplement to use on a regular basis to trap and remove toxins and heavy metals. It is the only brand of Zeolite that can cross the intestinal membrane to circulate in the bloodstream and "de-activate " the heavy metals by trapping them in its matrix and then removing them from your body either in the urine or GI tract. It is also effective in reducing the pesticide load. Zeolite is otherwise inert in the body and free of side effects. If you are concerned about heavy metal or chemical exposure, I recommend you use this to support your health. You can find more information at www.myncd.com/241227

Another way to remove toxins is to include broken cell wall chlorella in your diet. This helps with toxin and heavy metal removal but does not have the ability to bind with the heavy metal's in your bloodstream like the Zeolite - it only binds with some toxins in the gut to prevent them from entering into your system. It is a great food source, has no side effects and is available at health food stores.
