Our
Toxic Environment
Since
the dawn of the industrial revolution, the earth has been
exposed to an increasing onslaught of toxic chemicals
and other pollutants including concentrated heavy metals.
These toxins have become pervasive in our country and
around the world. It has become impossible to go anywhere
or do anything without being exposed to them. We now find
them in our air, water, food, and pharmaceutical drugs
as well as our home and work environments. We can’t even
avoid them by eating and drinking organically (although
we dramatically reduce our exposure by eating organically
and raw).
As
an example, mercury is the second deadliest element on
the planet after plutonium. We are now being told to stop
eating large ocean fish, as they tend to accumulate more
mercury than smaller fish. In fact, anyone with one or
more mercury amalgam fillings in their mouth is being
exposed to vastly larger amounts of mercury every time
they swallow or take a breath. In fact, there is enough
mercury in one filling to pollute a 10 acre lake to the
point where the EPA would declare it unfit for drinking,
swimming, or fishing. Mercury has been implicated as a
potential cause of A.D.D., Autism, Alzheimer’s, chronic
fatigue, and thyroid failure, to name just a few ailments.
Fluoride
is another element we have concentrated and are putting
into our water supply to prevent tooth decay in children.
Fluorine has played a significant role in insect control
since about 1896 when sodium fluoride and various iron
fluorides were patented in England as insecticides. Sodium
fluoride was used in the United States for cockroach control
before 1900 and was introduced in 1915 for the control
of poultry lice. It was also used as a rat poison. (Read
the history and the patents
of fluoride here, dating back to 1896.
SYMPTOMS
OF TOXIC OVERLOAD
Virtually
any adverse symptom a person may experience can be caused
by toxic overload. Toxins work in the body by competing
for mineral receptor sites at the enzyme level. The inability
of an enzyme to function properly can manifest itself
in many different disease states depending upon each individual’s
genetic makeup (DNA). Consequently, it is always important
to address your own toxic load whenever you have any kind
of symptom that does not seem normal. The speed of symptom
onset, from acute (fast) to chronic (slow) depends upon
the degree of toxic exposure as well as each individual’s
genetic make-up. Today, many of our unexplainable diseases
are directly associated with high levels of tissue toxins.
Some of them are as follows:
1.
Fatigue and chronic fatigue
2. Foggy thinking
3. Memory Loss
4. Chronic Pain
5. Weak immune system
6. Weak thyroid
7. Arthritis
8. Constipation
9. Heart Disease
10. Skin Ailments
11. Depression
12. and anything associated with accelerated degeneration
Lymph
Our Natural Defense Against Toxic Exposure
Our
bodies are naturally equipped with a wondrous mechanism,
our lymph system. This elaborate system is interactive
with every organ in the body. Our lymph system is designed
to filter out toxic substances and excess fluid from tissues
and is intricately involved in immune function. It is
our antibody roadway and it removes cellular waste and
undesirable toxins that have found their way into our
bodies. The lymph has been called “the River of Life”
and cannot cleanse or purify if it is weak on congested.
The lymph system does not have a pumping mechanism except
for muscle contraction. Therefore, the need for physical
movement, exercise, and periodic detoxification is imperative
for a well functioning lymph system.
How
can we protect ourselves from becoming negatively impacted
by this scenario? WE MUST DETOXIFY! Below
are examples of some of the current detoxification methods
available:
1.
Chelation therapy
2. DMPS injections
3. DMSA capsules
4. EDTA supplementation therapy
5. Far infrared saunas
6. Asunaro foot patches
Numbers
1-5 are either invasive or expensive or require monitoring
by a healthcare professional. The Asunaro foot patch is
the newest therapy available and may prove to be the most
effective and it works directly on the lymph system.
It therefore can remove more toxins quickly and painlessly
with less effort.
The
Role Of The Feet In The Detoxification Process
Different
forms of working on the feet to effect health have been
used since ancient times. The law of similars states,
“Whatever is happening inside the body is identical and
similar at the end of the nerves in the hands and feet”.
The sole of the foot is viewed as an area that reflects
the wellness of the body.
The
feet are a map of the body; they are divided into zones
that correspond to specific body systems. It is possible
to target and cleanse ones liver, colon, kidneys, or other
body systems by positioning the Eidon Foot Pads on that
target area of the foot (see foot map). Manually stimulating
the desired area to be detoxified before applying the
footpad increases the circulation and clears debris, sending
more energy directly to the corresponding organ or body
part. The body is thus encouraged to restore balance by
lessening its toxic load.
